Can anyone tell me what kind of bike the awesome Bowser Bike is? I can't tell from the tailer what it is.... I hope it's not an inside drift, or it's yet an other good looking bike I won't/can't use.

Agreed. I don't like inside drifting bikes, they're very hard to use.

Now that I saw gameplay of it, I think it's actually a Kart..?
Anyway.. It has normal drift!! Woohoo!

Kung Fu Panda is a DreamWorks movie, DreamWorks also made Shrek, Mario Kart is made by Nintendo, Smash Bros. is also made by Nintendo... you know what this means!?!?!

That Big Blue level is one of the most graphical impressive things Nintendo has ever done. Looks incredible.

I like the complete lack of evidence supporting the fact that the Wii U is the weakest hardware platform.

It's dangerous to go alone! Stay at home.

The new Ribbon Road looks amazingly gorgeous. The devs have really outdone themselves.

Just played Mirror Mode for fun...
Online Multiplayer desperately needs this too. Why isn't it there in the first place? Previous installments have it too?(MKWii at last)
Not counting tournaments btw.^^

I have read rumors that Mirror Mode might appear online on 7000+ groups, or in groups where all have an online star. Haven't seen it myself though.

I saw a 94000+ player yesterday, though. In some of the races, he was so far ahead everyone else that the whole race became totally unbalanced. Bullet bills appearing everywhere.

DS, Wii and 7 had Mirror Mode on random online matches. I think it was removed in 8 because most people don't like it and would rather have 150cc all the time. Of course 200cc is being added on Thursday so that's being added to random online matches too.

Usually all matches are default at 150cc, in my experience. Are we going to see 200cc as the new default? Or are the unlock requirements too strict (are there any)?

Actually, it is available to race online. You have to select it under the Custom options. Problem is, no one else bothers with it! So good luck getting a race going. Every time I try it, I wind up in an empty lobby... : Keep in mind, this mode makes EVERY course mirror mode rather than just random ones like MK Wii did. That might be why no one uses it... Who knows..

I do agree that they should definitely update the game so mirror mode courses randomly show up ever so often like they did in MK Wii. It would add some nice variety to online play, especially for hardcore players like myself who spends hours racing online every week.

I don't believe so because there will be too many people who don't want to race that fast. Don't quote me on this, but I'm pretty sure that in order to race 200cc online you have to go select it in Custom options.

Technically it would be midnight Thursday, but yes, considering that the Mercedes DLC and the Zelda DLC pack both came out at midnight, I'm sure this one will as well.

Remember that it's midnight PACIFIC time. So depending on where you live it could be anywhere from 1am to 3am...

Oh, I assumed it was each time zone gets it when they hit midnight.

The default is 100cc. If the average in a group is above 3000, it's 150cc.
