Sorry but looking at these locales only makes me want to explore them in an open world game not just race thru them! So gorgeous! Can't wait for this...now about that rubberbanding...
I take this as they're no longer trying to be "videogame" centric, acknowledging they can't compete with sony and Microsoft, so they're looking for a blue ocean area that isn't super saturated by beefy competition. I think this shift to QOL is scary...hello vitality sensor...i mean Wtf =/
@bizcuthammer i completely agree. I just meant in terms of being their big 2nd party developer. And the lack of fresh IP's like from Rare days is a total bummer and something Nintendo really really need...as do we the consumer !
@rjejr Yeah there's just no "hype" surrounding anything to do with the Wii U. It's a console#2 system and will stay that way with it missing virtually every big player...(minecraft, Rockstar games, etc etc...)

Re: Month Of Kong: Whatever Happened To Donkey Kong Racing?
@bizcuthammer i completely agree. I just meant in terms of being their big 2nd party developer. And the lack of fresh IP's like from Rare days is a total bummer and something Nintendo really really need...as do we the consumer !

@unrandomsam agreed! And that's what N needs desperately
