Watching that brought back a nostalgic feel of when this was all new and exciting. That might be a reason for me to get the Wii U. I'm impressed, exudes fun.
Mario Kart 8: Gentlemen and Lovely Ladies, Please start your hype... I mean Engines!
- Thread starter Dehnus
- Start date
No problem as I follow every piece of info out there anyway lol . Wait till Bayonetta/X gets closer and then I will be spamming these threads hardcore
If nintendo was to cave and give us a new Fzero/Starfox this gen they would have to include the Vitality sensor because gamers would be stroking out left and right

Mario Kart 8 devs praise power of Wii U -- "It's a very pretty game"

I've been hearing a number of people say that, Adam. This game may be a minor system seller for Nintendo. I hope so. It looks like they put a lot of effort into it.
It looks like a really fun game, especially with others. It almost makes me consider getting a Wii U myself. I still need a few more reasons, but MK8 definitely makes me envy Wii U owners right about now.

And to be fair, I bought a Wii-U at launch and to be honest, really liked it. But once I got done playing NSMB there wasnt really anything else to play. And after a month or two of waiting, I just gave up and sold it to a co-worker. Now that some really awesome games are out. Im ready to hop back on the bandwagon.
Indeed they do, I can't wait until this Crunchtime is over so I can get back into my Wii U! Such a backlog with DKC:TF, Mario Kart 8 coming up and Super Mario 3D world.
I really hope we can arrange Union VGF matches. In PUG matches I usually feel rather pressed against being social. Nobody really interacts, which I find sad as it is a hilarious game to play with people on a more common basis. Even if you suck at it like me
.I do think we'll get an F-Zero, something tells me they want to go for that multiplayer local and online feel they've been pushing for so long. For instance a lot of people do complain abuot F-Zero for the N64, but it had a s*** load of individual racers in the game, where the competition had like 16, F-Zero had easily double that number. Imagine a 32 Player racer online with 4 player localNo problem as I follow every piece of info out there anyway lol .

, Nintendo can do it!That's because the Graphics hardware on board of a Wii U is about 3 a 4 (depending on the console) iterations newer. This means it can do a few nifty new tricks that makes it far more efficient than those other two platforms. On top of that that 32Megs of eDRam certainly helps to keep it fed as well as helping in compute problems that require a low latency.
Game looks quite better than PS3/360 imo
With the Wii U the CPU can also access it and have a nice little low latency scratchpad, heck even the Xbox One can't do that, sure the Xbox 360 had Memexport and the One now also allows the CPU to access the eSRam via the GPU, but that isn't a direct access that the Wii's Espresso has
.It certainly helps ALOT to keeping framerates high and effects plenty

Fast Racing Neo will be this Gen F-zero and that wont be a terrible thing if it is like the first game.
The game looks great, glad I rebought a Wii U a couple weeks ago, Mario 3D will hold me over till this is out. I havent played a Mario Kart game since double dash.
My fiancee and I played co op Mario and the Luigi DLC, sold it shortly after for Xbox One money. I just rebought the Wii U a couple weeks ago and ill keep it this time although I dont see myself playing a ton of games on it. We are playing Mario 3D right now which is great and I can not wait for Mario Kart.

Hmm, as it seems like Mario Kart 8 will not provide us with Voice chat, would anybody have an idea of solving this. After all part of the hilarity is the lamentations of your co-racers as you blasted them into last place, from a very comfortable second place that you held for almost the entire race.
I can provide some options maybe, like a Mumble server, but I still would like to get some ideas thrown in first.

I have a 360 and a PS4, if other people have one of those we can set up chat through that.
Well, Skype might also work, it just is a bit harsh on the old resources. I can set up a temporary Mumble server for that.
But skype might be easier to set up for those not willing to get into mumble.
I'm surprised no one linked the Mario Kart Direct that Nintendo put up on the e-shop.
Really cool. But some of it had lame segments (acting).
