Topic: Mario Kart 8 - OT

Careful, you're treading dangerous ground. Just don't be mad if the game gets delayed.

@BusterRed123 I'll let you know after I play through MK7.

@brewsky All things considered, I severely doubt that will happen.

VOICECHAT online confiirmed !!!!!

Great, now I have to mute everyone when I play online. -_-

I'll believe it when I see it working in the game.

Ugh..

IF they do it they better not half-donkey it & skip out on a mute feature. I want to be able to choose in the options menu that I don't want to hear any voice chat, ever.
_{Please watch the profanity — TBD}

Yes hopefully they dont forget the mute option

I am excited for this but also worried. Just like the Kinect with the Xbox One, everyone and their mother is going to be talking. Screaming kids, loud music, and humming/singing. Lovely

That's probably the way it's going to be implemented. Features like the mii universe features have always been optional in the existing Wii U games.

Actually, I think it's the other way around with MK8. I think it has been ready (except for the QA testing perhaps) for some time. A specific release date was set very early on MK8. And the MK8 release date plays well with the upcoming E3.

@masterguard08, because of that i hope there will be an option to mute the people that are enoying, so that you hear only the people that speak and use it normal

Game chat in mk8
people moan and complain when its not known to be offered
still moan and complain when its confirmed

me and my friend who live a ways away: YAY!!! maine for me, florida for him
personally i will rather feel great enjoyment hearing what people say when i launch a blue shell, hit them with green shells, etc.. its gonna enhance the online experience more than anything, and its a G.O.O.D thing to have game chat in 2014.

Someone just mentioned on Gamefaqs that Mario Kart 8's file size is now on the eShop, it is said to be under 5 GB. Actually 4.83 GB. Looks like I'm gonna go with the digital version..

Edit: I Just checked the eShop page, it is a little higher than 4.83 but STILL under 5GB.

Same, I'm glad its around 5GB of course the download will still take awhile but not nearly as long as say, Tropical Freeze (11GB)~

We've got new info!

WHAT HAVE THEY DONE TO THE CHARACTER ROSTER?! They'd better have like 50 characters xp I mean Pink gold peach? What?

All of the Star and Leaf Cup tracks.

Well the direct was a nice surprise.

Game chat being included makes me happy especially for NintendoLife game nights, let the gloating begin.

The just-released Nintendo UK trailer was really impressive:

Baby Rosalina and Pink Gold Peach?

Really?
