Super Mario Kart Super Circuit Double Dash 64 7 Wii DS 8

...Bowser's castle 3 was in Wii.
Also I just noticed that every time someone does a little mini-spinout during an anti gravity section, they to a mini-boost right afterwards.  Strange.

wow, more stamps for me to colour
and Mario Wiki doesn't even have all of them yet.

But considering what those unlock requirements are, I'll have play as Non-Existent Baby #1, Non-Existent Baby #2, and Metal-Clone-Character #2 in order to 100% complete the game!

At least 4 Player GP could help with this.

Actually, speaking of Babies, there's only one Baby I'd be willing to play as that wasn't in MKDD.
And to be honest, he'd be amazing

Of course, I'm talking about

Baby Yoshi

To be honest, I believe he's more deserving of a spot on the roster than any of those 2 original-the-characters (or you-know-who who is returning from MKWii, what they were created for)


No matter how many of these thing bug me though, I'm still getting this game no matter what.

[Geno]

hey, HEY.
HOLD IT

Super Circuit came BEFORE Double Dash!

So, considering Nintendo appears to be going in order with the Rainbow Road remakes, GBA will be next, NOT GCN.

They also are probably not gonna have 2 DS circuits, considering how Nintendo appears to no longer wants 2 (or more) courses with the same music in the same game.



On a slightly different note, I'm surprised they did not pick GBA Sunset Wilds for MK8. Imagine how that time-of-day-changing thing would look in HD!

[Sora]

So I dunno if any of you guys follow Nintendo's twitter, but they've been really pumping the MK8 hype.  And while I am looking forward to crushing people as Ludwig, there's something that's been bugging me about these screenshots....

DK'S MASSIVE HEAD

(click to show/hide)

WHY ARE THEIR HEADS SO LARGE

[Stardust]

Because they were on steroids ; but not to worry, they're not the only ones suffering from that problem. Far, far away, in the opposite dimension...

IK calm down son. I just like GCN Rainbow Road better. Who said there has to be a pattern?

[Geno]

Really, DK's head only seems to be REALLY big on the first screenshot.

Although in the second one, his head seems just about the right size. At least when compared to the DKC and DK64 artwork.
THIS SPOILER CONTAINS THE DKC AND DK64 ART FOR DK, AS WELL AS THAT 2ND SCREENSHOT THAT WAS POSTED, SO THAT YOU CAN COMPARE THEM YOURSELF
yes I am using "outdated" references, shut up

(click to show/hide)

Looks to be a similar size as the DKC one, but slightly bigger than the DK64 one. huh

And DK's face in the first screenshot makes up for the random head size increase.

female pronouns/gender-specific "nicknames" please
Whoa, I didn't mean to sound.... uhh... angered? by that statement.

I guess the use of "HOLD IT" wasn't good.

Also, I like GCN Rainbow Road better too. Although GBA Rainbow Road is still awesome!
/me takes out her GBA and plays MKSC

Actually, I generally like most Mario Kart installments more than MKSC.

Must have something to do with MKSC's slippery handling.

[Gumballtoid]

I appreciate Super Circuit and Lakeside Park is one of my favorite tracks.

[Dataman]

I'm so hyped for MK8 right now

I already reserved a copy at my local EB Games, and I get to pick it up on friday.

[leoalex50]

mk 8 is out in japan and some parts of usa lol

[VGS2]

I literally just woke up to find this on Gonintendo.

Am I... still in a dream, or something?

If this truly is real, I sure hope this means we'll also get some character DLC in the future! Even if it probably will be more palette swaps of characters, like silver Luigi and White, Spotty Bowser, or whatever.

[Gumballtoid]

Or they could take the time to add in characters people actually wanted and forget Pink Gold Hard Man for a few seconds
