Starting with Yoshi. I always do.

And what retro track am I missing? I thought we were still short two of them.

And what else am I missing? When was voice chat ever on the table?

Oh, and I would like to point out what GameXplain did in their MK8 discussion. We have no new DK track and no new ice track. This doesn't mean a whole heck of a lot, but It's still worth pointing out.

The UGXloggery ... really needs an update.

@DestinyMan They meant /yet/. We still haven't seen a new DK track or a new ice track, so a Tropical Freeze track isn't all that far-fetched. Doesn't mean anything for sure, but it's a valid speculation.

No new DK track at all? That's too bad. I hope there's a new Wario track, then.

I've noticed that Mario Kart 8 is deviating from the rest of the series in that there's not that many tracks that are specific to a character, such as DK Jungle and Wario's Shipyard from the last game. There's Toad Harbor (which honestly looks like a Peach track to me because of the statue of liberty parody), the standard Mario Circuit, Shy Guy Falls, and the upcoming new Bowser's Castle. What I'm pointing out is that there's more tracks that are not character-based, like Cloudtop Cruise or Sweet Sweet Canyon, if you get what I mean.

INTERESTING... There still are some character themed tracks.

So my local Gamestop is already filled with some Mario Kart 8 advertising things, so that's cool. The entire window to the right of the entrance essentially a gigantic Wii U ad for everyone to see.

This game looks beyond incredible.

Sorry if this has been discussed already, but do you think we'll get a Rosalina themed level set in space on various galaxies? You can even boost from one galaxy to another using the star launcher things. I can just imagine the karts driving around a large circular galaxy and what not.

I mean the Mario Galaxy games are all about manipulating gravity, so is this game. Combine the two together and you have a world of crazy right there.

Man, the music in this game is sounding awesome! That was a really nice surprise. It's not something you usually think about for a game like Mario Kart.

I like makin' games!
Future Pinball games!
Petit Computer games!!
and SmileBASIC games!
Waiting for Kirby Air Ride 2. One day, it will come. One day...

Yeah, I think we will get a Rosalina themed track. Nintendo is loving her right now. Lol

Has anyone seen Birdo on any videos yet? He better be in the game. That is the best character in all of Mario World!

I was so not that excited for this game but it looks fantastic and now I'm hyped.

If Birdo was in Wii it'll be in 8. Hoping that will be the case for all Wii characters like Bowser Jr. and Dry Bones.

I think Birdo won't be in just because him and Wendy wear a bow.

Wii Moo Moo Meadows Wii U and Wii comparison

My lord. I don't know if the Wii was more underpowered than I ever thought or the Wii U is capable of much more than we expected.

Moo Moo Meadows is probably the best looking course so far, maybe tied with RR N64.

The depth in MK8 looks fantastic! I'll cross my fingers for Birdo. They said there are a few more characters that will be released.

You know what they should do? Instead of randomly unlocking kart parts by reaching a particular coin total, they should put the parts in a shop and you can buy them with coins.

TBH, I didn't buy Mario kart for the wii because it looked very poor to me, not Nintendolike at all. Felt like a step backwards from double dash. But now finally, the time is almost near. It has been so long, I think I'm going to cry...
