Default cant wait for mario kart



I like how they do the background focus like GT3, that's cool. Facial Animation will be a welcome addition. Hopefully they'll put some more personality in it that the 64 version.

i dont like the vehicles.... i miss the actual go carts.

now it looks more like. Mario SoapBox Durby. that they all made them out of differnt things.

Aside from that, it looks to be fun.

Come on, Null. You know they had to make it look as kiddy-friendly as possible

All jokes aside, I am definetely buying this!

one feature i think they should add;

shooting red shell at kart in front of you, the "co-pilot" falls out, and you can run him over! Or if you fall out of the kart you can pull out a bat, and hit other riders. That would make a good 8 player game! Make it comical violence ala smash bros, but give it a GTA like feel... but will nintendo do that? Nooooooooooooo!

Looks great!

But is that an in-game screen or an FMV?

Looks in game, probably cut scene, like after you finish the race, or something.

I have mixed feelings about it. I wished it was like secret karts you can unlock or something and that they would have bonuses, like interacting differently if you use them with different characters and the such. That would leave the normal karts there and give you the option of using them or not. But the games looks very promising and seems to carry as much fun factor as the other Mario Karts.

After seeing some gameplay videos, I've been sold already. These screenshots that are released do no justice.

I agree with Null, I miss the actual Go-Karts. Otherwise, I cant wait for it. Its been one of my most watched games for ages.

I think the game looks awsome, but i have to agree with a couple people and say that i kinda miss the old go-carts. but what can i say, they had to find a way for 2 people to fit in the kart! lol, anyways, i think ill be buyin it, specially if it comes with a preview disk.

Remember people, the game hasn't been released yet, so maybe Nintendo will include the old fashioned carts as a special unlock. Or have a special "area" in the game dedicated to the old ones and the 2nd person can still be the person who shoots, but you won't see him/her in the kart.

I actually like the new karts in Double Dash!! (they give each Nintendo character a lot more personality). No matter what though, I am going to get this game.

I've been waiting ages for this game and it's one of the main reasons why I bought a Gc.

I will play Lan for who knows how long. I haven't touched all 3 consoles in AGES. Finally I will play them again and maybe even stop playing Warcraft so much.

I'd figure after all of this time, someone would have said that the game now supports up to 16 players with 8 co-op teams, but I guess no one thought to mention it. It eould be a pretty cool feature, if at all possible to get 8 GCNs, 8 TVs, 8 BBA and 8 copies of the game..
