Mario Kart 8 / Mario Kart 8 Deluxe

Re: Mario Kart 8

Depends on which store you go to. If it's a small one (like mine), there probably won't be a lot of lines, if any. If you go to one in a mall or something, there's probably gonna be a ton of people there.
 
Re: Mario Kart 8

It's not in a mall; besides, it's in a pretty modest (although fairly wealthy) suburb.

Our suburb IS the second highest retail spender in California after all (beat out by Beverly Hills) if that means anything
 
Re: Mario Kart 8

Hey I'm modest. I don't brag how much better I am than all of you

Except when it comes to killing Wario and making him get lapped in Mario Kart 8. No one can do a better job than me there.

I would race you to test that if you played WiFi. :smug:

Mario Kart 8 features the ability to have bob-omb only races. That's enough to drive Wario last in 50cc while giving us a chance to catch up. After all, we did that in Mario Kart 7....

I did exactly this in MK7 with Honey Queen and Toad.

I also gave myself infinite Star power in MKDS so I could get Toad lapped and then catch up as Waluigi.

You can't play with Bob-ombs only in Mario Kart 7 races, so it makes it much tougher to kill those characters. Unless you're playing with 2+ people

Amateur.

Real character torturers (like me being a Wario torturer) would use the Free Fly cheat + CPU2 300cc. Especially the 300cc cheat. That causes Wario to spaz out and clip through the ground until the race ends.

Well I didn't just use Bob-ombs, but whatever item I got. I purposely lagged behind so I could get Stars and such, then I chased down whoever I was after.
 
Re: Mario Kart 8

A better way to kill them would be Battle mode and try to make them get zero points. Especially in Coin Runners. God it's always so satisfying to see Wario as the only member not to grab any coins. Poor greedy man :wario:

Pfft everyone can lap people on Baby Park

Come back to me when you triple lapped Wario in N64 Bowser's Castle

The coin in first place thing sounds really REALLY FRUSTRATING

This does make you think twice about using your item when you don't have to.

After their 5/10 they gave for Mario Kart 7 because it's "stagnant" I'm legitimately surprised. Unless it's a different reviewer.

The subsequent replay is so satisfying to watch.

Well that's because Mario Kart 7 deserves 5/10. That game was absolutely mediocre.
 
Re: Mario Kart 8

Ironically, Mario Kart 7's parts were much more diverse with their stat boosts/drops. Mario Kart 8's parts lack stat versatility, as a lot of them share the exact same stats.
