N-E Mario Kart 8 DX Get Together

[Glen-i]

We haven't done Battle Mode in a while, let's do Battle Mode.

Shine Thief will have CPU's on, even if we have 6 or more players tonight, trust me on this one.

See you at 8pm tonight.

[S.C.G]

Thanks for the games.

Nice to play some Battle Mode for a change, the mode could be so much more if it had double the amount of arenas though.

Battle Mode dlc when, Nintendo?

Nintendo - "Never... probably"

Hmm, OK... well, nevermind then...

N-Europe Get Together! (06/04/2023)

I did surprisingly well in that first Battle, and it all went downhill from then. We don't talk about my score in Shine Thief.

[Glen-i]

Player's Choice tonight at 8pm.

[BowserBasher]

Some of my worst finishes in MK history there. Was great fun teaming up to thwart @Glen-i on the forth GP, just not enough @Dcubed @S.C.G

I was so pleased with that win I forgot to get the recording right after.

Thanks for the games.

N-Europe Get Together! (13/04/2023)

[viceview51]

Apologies for not making it yesterday, fell asleep...

[Glen-i]

Player's Choice tonight at 8pm.

One of the funniest nights on voice chat I remember. Some close races all throughout. Also @S.C.G you will face my wrath in Smash for that despicable display in the final race of GP4 for not letting me pass to beat @Glen-i by coming second. I thought we had a deal? Anyway time for funnies.

 

[S.C.G]

Thanks for the games.

Some great races this week, really close ones, and some amusing moments, like the one aforementioned by @BowserBasher

(and yes, we'll "settle it in Smash!" on Saturday)

Good to have @Ugh first aid back racing with us again, and hopefully in Smash as well this week.

N-Europe Get Together! (20/04/2023)

[Glen-i]

Have a couple from me.

 

[BowserBasher]

Speaking of me not deserving it. There was that one race I did deserve what I got. I think it was Maple Treeway, I was constantly getting a red shell in second, but every time I had one I had to keep it as a shield because I was getting red shells fired at me. I just wanted to hit @Glen-i. But then on the very last straight Glen gets hit by a good ol' Spikey Shell and I actually managed to win that race.

This week in particular @S.C.G stood out as the jammiest. 

I did an offline GP earlier and used a bike for the first time since MK Wii. The wheelie is gone??

Yep. To be fair, the wheelie was incredibly OP in MK Wii.

Some bikes (Such as the Yoshi Bike I use) have a very inward drifting line, making them efficient corner takers for certain tracks. SNES Rainbow Road and any track with traffic are ones they perform quite well in.

Bikes were worth getting used to. The handling between karts and bikes seems closer in MK 8? I was ready to go back to karting in MK 7 but I think I'm ready for a change again.

Again, it depends on the bike, some of them handle much like karts, while others handle close to how they do in Wii.

N-Europe Get Together! (27/04/2023)

[BowserBasher]

Two satisfying (probably not for @Glen-i) replays from me.

 

[Glen-i]

Theme Night Tonight

Blatantly nicking @Dcubed and @BowserBasher's casual suggestion for a night time theme, and luckily, there's exactly 12 tracks that fit! The other 2 Rainbow Roads explicitly take place in space, so...

See you at 8!

Also, shout-out to @martinist in the hopes that it reminds him to join.

[darksnowman]

Can we do a GP some week that's the Animal Crossing course in each of the four seasons?
