The game is pretty fun, as expected. A pity that they removed the wheelies though!
My favorite stages so far may be Wario mountain and the track with the dolphins! Also, I like what they have done with some of the retro tracks. Wario stadium was always fun, but now they have also added water and anti-gravity. Very good!
Graphically its also very good. Maybe the best looking Wii u game so far. And I also like the slowmotion feature, when you are watching highlights.
By the way: If you see a timetrial ghost from a dutch nutter called Henmii, that's me!
Have the game downloaded and waiting for me at home but not gonna be able to jump in and play until tomorrow afternoon at best. The anticipation is killing me.
Played it for about 3 hours straight when I got home from work. It is certainly one of the most visually stunning games I've ever played. I won't be able to afford any new games for a while, but this will keep me for quite some time. I've played through all but two of the cups now. The N64 Rainbow Road track is my favorite musically, by far.

Sure, just send a friend request to my NL user name. At the very least I'll see you on the 3ds with MH4 right?

So this is my first time with a Wii U. Anyone wanna mind to add me? NNID is BigTechBrother. And just to be on-topic, the free game will just come to me tomorrow when I register my CN account today.
Has anyone else found online to be tough? Normally in Mario Kart games I can easily get into 4th place or better in every race. but lately, within a few seconds at the start of the race, I've been getting ambushed by every item known to toadkind. And have been landing around 8th place. I.. I'm.. I'm not getting worse, am I?!
No, you aren't the worse player. It's that you need some practice, since practice makes perfect!

Nope, everyone else is just getting better!

Does anyone here like the Dual Stick method? I've grown to prefer the precision it gives me while driving.

So I played it for about 2 hours and...I cant say that I like it too much. I saw a ton of videos that convinced me to buy it, but Ive just been bombarded with items over and over again. My sister isnt feeling it either. My every victory has been by 2 seconds or less. As a Mario Kart veteran who's played countless hours of Double Dash and Mario Kart Wii, Im not totally on board with this. In all console Mario Kart games, my sister and I always take 1st and 2nd place; but this time around there is much more of a struggle. My fingers are actually sore from putting so much effort into drifting and any little thing to get ahead. (I only race on 150cc btw/ anything else feels much to slow; Honestly, 150cc feels a little slow too)
Still giving it a shot though. Ive unlocked all the cups of course, but Ive only spent about 2 hours with it. Ill give it more time tomorrow.

So your saying you like it less because it's more difficult? This does not compute.....

Eh...you shouldn't expect to always be the best at a game you just got, even if it is Mario Kart. You'll get used to it.
