Mario Kart 8 / Mario Kart 8 Deluxe

Re: Uhh Okay Not to be a killjoy here but...

:-\ Are uhh... are we still talking about mario kart here?

Big, Small, Tall, Short, Fat, Skinny, Who Cares? the only thing their size is good for is setting up the standard on who you should pick for races vs. actually picking a favorite or a random racer just for the heck of it..

*cough*coughmortoncough*

still that aside i'm still a little curious on what the Nintendo Treehouse mean when they say the finish product will have "a few surprises" well the new battle modes is one of em i wonder what the rest will be?

i know there won't be any new tracks but one can dream right?
 
Re: Mario Kart 8

I am still shocked that we have four Mario series amiibo unsupported, whilst they bothered to add support for ALL the Animal Crossing amiibo (existing costume) and Inkling Boy/Girl/Squid.

Daisy could have gotten a flower based suit with Princess ORANGE decorations on the suit and her 60's hairstyle on the helmet. Maybe a mini daisy on the top.

Waluigi's one could have a crooked nose, and long moustache.

Boo's one should have glowed whenever a Mii reaches a dark area. I thought both of them were locks, especially as they added King Boo to the game.

Bowser Jr could unlock a suit with a bandana.

I mean, they couldn't even add Diddy Kong to the game in general, and he has a new Mario series amiibo.

Yet they bothered to add a motocross suit. And people wonder why amiibo are only used as collectables.
 
Re: Mario Kart 8

The main reason I bought amiibos was because of Smash, not because of getting a Mii costume I'll never use because I don't play as Miis.

It's going to be an even bigger problem in Smash, unless they add other amiibo content or add new Mario fighters. Just because YOU don't care, doesn't mean it's not a problem.
 
Re: Mario Kart 8

Again it's not that unheard of for certain amiibo to get the cold shoulder. The Shadow Mewtwo amiibo card's only purpose is to temporarily unlock Shadow Mewtwo in Pokken Tournament, but once Shadow Mewtwo is officially unlocked, the amiibo card becomes nothing more than a collectible.
 
Re: Mario Kart 8

I like how meme pretends that just because Daisy and company is said to have 0 support for amiibos in MK8 means that Nintendo completely ditched Amiibos for the matter.

For 1 , Daisy does not represent most amiibos.

For 2 , i think he forgets that Sports Super Stars is coming and it has amiibo support.

For 3 , Amiibos in general are carried over to the Switch so there´s always a chance in future games they will be supported.

Dear meme man , stop pretending that not having a supported amiibo in MK8 is relevant because it certainly its not.

Wario out of all people does not have a supported amiibo , and that its more unbelieveable than Daisy Mcnuggets or Wa wa wa being ditched as Wario is clearly more relevant and he actually has a biker suit that could make up as a costume.

But you dont see anybody crying about it , so stop.
 
Re: Mario Kart 8

Amiibos are cheap, fairly high-quality figurines anyway, so it's not too bad that they don't get support for all games.
 
Re: Mario Kart 8

i agree , except for Smash Peach.

After looking at the ones in the presentation and the actual copies sold , i felt scammed.

That's pretty much the only intent people buy amiibo in the first place. You can't complain about that when most of the appeal of amiibo is to collect and display them on your shelf.

That is precisely the reason I've always wanted them, besides of their use in the games associated with them.
