What I mean is that it's useless not because of the feature itself, but because how uncomfortable to use it looks. If there's a specific button to use it, then it's ok. I'm just saying I'm not going to let go of the buttons to get the stylus out of the GamePad just to use the horn.

Use your nose. it's super effective.

And then you don't see TV to play.
 
Re: Mario Kart 8

I don't think that horn is usable online, or at least I don't think the other players can hear it.



Follow-up Analysis, yay.

While less impresive then the previous one, it still notes a few interesting things.

So what do we think, 45degree angle in GBA Mario Circuit from the start or somewhere during the race? I personally have no idea.

Judging from this image, the slant is near the starting line (the six black lines at the start of the course). Just giving location

Of course, I think it will be there at the start. That kind of event looks too major to happen within 5 seconds.

You can always let go of the steering wheel (aka control stick) and use your thumb for it.
 
Re: Mario Kart 8

It's intended so that you can easily switch between motion controls and traditional controls.
 
Re: Mario Kart 8

I don't want motion controls though. I mean, I always turned gyro off when I was racing in first person mode in Mario Kart 7 because I always tend to veer into one direction

Which are all occupied pressing the buttons and moving the Control Stick...

You don't need to move the control stick like all the time though

Boohemoth's circuit is called Twisted Mansion, @NintendoUK says.

Great! I like the track too. I want to race on it!

Re: Mario Kart 8

WHY DON'T I HAVE A WII U?!?!
 
Re: Mario Kart 8

What are some karts you guys want to see return? You know, like what they did with the Egg 1 and B Dasher in MK7. I'd like to see the Piranha Pipes from GCN and Poltergust 4000 from DS.
 
Re: Mario Kart 8

The Cloud Nine because Wario looks stupid on it

It looks like there are faces on the hills in the second picture, it is hard to notice but a nice detail!
 
Re: Mario Kart 8

I want the Birthday Girl to return. :(
 
Re: Mario Kart 8

That's relatively old news to me
 
Re: Mario Kart 8

Am I the only one who finds the red really clashing with the box art? I mean, they should at least do what they did for NSMBW and make the Wii U banner at the top red as well. Keeping it blue makes everything look wrong.
 
Re: Mario Kart 8

I hate the red case D: It reminds me of New Super Mario Bros. Wii... I want all my game cases to look similar, and Mario Kart 8 will stand out... Kind of OCD, I know, but I can't help it.

At this point, any remaining retail copies of New Super Mario Bros. Wii will use the default white box now. But it's funny how Mario Kart 8's box is colored red when that's not even the primary color that the box art uses.

Didn't you say that before somewhere...

I have an awful feeling of déjàvu right now and I want it to stop T_T

Not to mention Double Dash had a red case too.
