Posted April 30, 2014 Voice chat confirmed but it can only be used before and after races (in otherwords in the lobby). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted April 30, 2014 So, a proper lobby system? Voice chat in lobbies isn't amazing, but is satisfactory. Now I can place a pre-order. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted April 30, 2014 Our offer is way better than America which just has the four games. Now for game and wario or sonic.... Surprised the direct hasnt been posted here and there isn't more chat? No one think it was utterly awesome (the the video was Baggie) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 30, 2014 Hmm the Mario Kart bundle though, do you get a boxed copy of the game in the box? I could get it for another £20 cheaper than that with staff discount so it's tempting - I know my brother's thinking of getting one - either way, cracking deal there for anyone who doesn't have a Wii U yet. : peace: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 1, 2014 It has a picture of the game's case on the Wii U box so I imagine it is a physical copy like the Lego City Undercover bundle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted May 1, 2014 There's a huge number of characters already, far more than any other installment And they could probably cut half of them, add these few and everyone would be happy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 1, 2014 People would complain about the ones they cut. Fans are never happy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 1, 2014 What I mean is that if they had never announced Metal Mario, Gold Peach and the Koopa Kids and announced Diddy, Birdo and Bowser Jr instead, everyone would have cheered. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 1, 2014 Or would they be saying, those same characters agaaain? "Why not try something new and different Nintendo?" etc Personally I would have groaned at Diddy and Bowser Jr. The Koopa Kids are a great addition IMO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
