Yeah, it's awesome. I haven't really played these since the DS version, so not sure how much it's changed since wii or 7. Lots of detail, awesome art, great sense of speed, great music. And the slow motion replays are clearly awesome.

Ive still got to get DKC Tropical Freeze... Its just hard to spend $50 on a new game heh.
$50 but if you get it digitally you'll get $5 in ddp credit from the secondary game you get to pick for free(assuming you have a wiiU 32gb) So that's two games and $5 in credit.
I paid $60 usd for MARIO but I went digital so I get $10ddp credit
DDP=Digital deluxe promotion, ever Wii U owner (32gb of course) should be set up for that,

It is though ive struggle online some races i get can get 2nd or 3rd place.Then i start losing like crazy.....
Yeah, that happens haha. one shell and you're gone most of the time, but it seems if you can get way out front you can keep your position. the 2-12 racers almost always seem to be in a solid pack

That sounds like a lot of fun and sort of makes me want a Wii U for that. I haven't really played online games in years.

MK8 needs more balance if you're under 3rd place you will get to much knock back.BTW munchi code if you set up a room ?

They've made a few changes to the game. After a race, the first option on the screen is next race instead of view replay. The only added thing to the actual game play is you can now drive Mercedes Benz cars. Dumb.

That's not much,here i was hoping for a arena in battle mode.True it's free so it's not like i was expecting much.

there will be DLC it's not going to be free tho..
Looks like there is a homage to F-Zero (http://s2.thcdn.com/productimg/0/600/600/21/10991121-1409070796-361669.jpg)

looks like the first DLC will hit in Nov 2014. The 2nd DLC will hit in may 2015 !!!!!!!

I read that it is going to be $10 or $15, but you get 8 courses, 3 characters, and some new karts. Considering this is extra content truly being made after the game's release, I am really happy with the value. Can't wait!

Just read about the newly announced DLC. Much better than the Mercedes cars. Would be cool to race as Link but I probably won't end up buying it.

Maybe this is trying to recoup some money Nintendo spent giving away free games. I mean I got MK8 and another game for £35 roughly cant be much profit there.

Hmm. You could be right. Never thought of it like that.

Might be a way to recoup some of the money "lost" from the downloaded games, but sure that not everyone will pick it up. Don't think I will.

Actually even better pricing.
Both packs have 3 characters, 4 vehicles and 8 tracks each!
and both packs together will be only $12!!!!!!!
I gotta start playing this game.

Controlled replays. Best feature and funny as hell. Can't wait for the DLC. Plus, I can actually play a game with someone who is sitting next to me. Where did that go to over the last 5 years (not necessarily talking about Nintendo)?

Started playing this game, best Mario kart yet. Has a perfect balance of skill and chance.
Me and Wario are gonna run over some bitches. ;)
This is my new favorite online game along with Titanfall (which everyone should have).

I just downloaded the DLC today. Really nice stuff! Weve got three rainbow road tracks now??!
Nintendo really likes there skittles :P Beside it being the snes rainbow road,to many tights turns and it's easy to fall off ](*,) Also after watching guru larry review of the dlc i completely agree.
