Mario Kart 8

Recommended Posts

Nope! Do not want! A car like that is bound to have poor acceleration, and I just can't cope with taking an eternity to get up to speed whenever I get hit.

 

Cool that it's in though!

 

Whack some of those baby roller wheels on and you get the best of both worlds.

Good point.

 

But inside drift is going to win over anyway for me. Which makes me think I won't be using any of these novel karts...

 

Oh well, I bought this for the tracks. And also Link. Because it's Link in Mario Kart. It's just so bizarre.

any ideas when this DLC will hit? I'm hoping it will be the other side of November to Smash bros....

I thought it was October? November is a bit too busy for me with AC and GTAV coming out.

The Norwegian Nintendo website says late November.

 

...So probably pretty close to the Smash Bros. release, yeah.

My girlfriend got me a MK cake for my birthday (along with some Sheff Utd buns). I won't be seeing her on the day so I got it early :D

Really cool cake. Now that's some special girlfriend you have. Major brownie points for that. Shame about the buns really. They spoil the photo. Joking!

The Master Cycle is part of the first DLC pack for #MK8 and has plenty of horse power…

From a business POV the DLC releases need to be far apart. The whole point is that they revive interest in the game and hopefully boosts sales. Releasing them too close together would be counter-productive, as much as we may want it.

Reading Eiji Aonuma's latest post on Miiverse it sounds like the Master Cycle will have inwards drift (good news for @Glen\-i?)

Why did I post that in the Smash Bros. thread?

I'm not with it today.

There are no words to describe how insanely excited this makes me!

 

If it is inward drift, I'm gonna use this bike ALL the time! OK, except theme nights. But other than that, ALL the time!

'(It looked so cool that I also want it to appear in games I work on)'

 

Wow!

I wonder if we'll see it return in the new Zelda.

I did wonder what that had to do with Smash Bros, were you hoping for his motorbike in the Wii U Smash? :p

 

Wow!

I think it'd be really cool but I know a lot of people would be upset at the lack of a proper horse for Link so we probably won't be able to drive around the fields on it. At least we have this game to get our Master Cycle fill :D

A futuristic Zelda would be a nice idea if they got the world right; but risky!! Maybe as a second title on a console, or even a handheld version.

I'm disappointed Link isn't riding a horse in Mario Kart...

 

...imagine that, Link drifting round the corners on Epona. Awesome.

That's about as silly as using Epona as a weapon in a hack n slash game.
