Lightning sucks, but at least that hurts everyone except the person using it. So it doesn't really shake up the ranking.

I just dislike how it destroys items too. Nothing else in the game does that, just the lightning

People keep saying the Xbox One doesn't have Backwards Compatibility.
I don't think they know what Backwards Compatibility means...

To be fair, when has Mario Kart been catered to hardcore players?

Also, if you're playing and either the way you're playing or the results of the match are causing you to damage your controller, you obviously need a break. For Pete's sake, it's a game. This, coming from a highly competitive player. No use in wrecking a controller that sells for $50 MSRP.

The original Super Mario Kart was quite reasonable. (I think it was at least a year before I could do 150cc).

I disagree about SMK being reasonable because Mario and Luigi are cheaters in that game!

I play as Yoshi, so Mario always places dead last every time!

Got the game today, and it ceartnly has the potential to take MKDSs place as my favorite ^^
So far I unlocked three characters, and two of them was my least favorite additions from the trailers x-)

Random question:
Why does Wendy Koopa participate in the races when I have not unlocked her?

If you play online, it wouldn't make much sense to prevent others from using all players and unlocked vehicle parts (or to filter out who they really are or what gear they're using). I guess they wanted local play to behave the same.

I was talking about a private 50cc race. First race in the game, she was there

I guess they just do it for variety. At least that would be my guess either that or just so you can see all the characters at some point.

I wonder what Link's kart horn will sound like in Mario Kart 8. I bet it's Navi's annoying "Hey"

If it's the "You got a thing" jingle, I will spam that horn for all eternity.

How about the rupee jingle or that ...other jingle from the 64 games where you get the rupee from a treasure chest. Ya maybe a rupee jingle from the 64 games. Not the treasure chest one.
Speaking of that @brewsky you may wanna check your backloggery mail in a few mins.

They might use sound effects from the Animal Crossing series as the Villager's "voice".
