The only way they could improve it is inclusion of other characters. Like Samus or Cloud or some shite.

But it's not even best MK game?

I played MK8, but never bought it. I have this preordered though for extended playing.

Mario Kart 8 was already really good. this is a huge boost to the switch's library

Well yeah.

Everything on the library besides the Lego and Indie titles we all have on previous consoles/PC. Even fckking World of Goo. Not complaining the console just came out. I would love to see a lot of the Wii U titles just up ressed. Tons of ppl didn't own the WiiU and would experience for the first time like Mario World 3D.

MK64. MK Wii is not far from it either.

I didn't like double dash, but I know a lot of people do.

MK64 is my top just because I was a kid. It might be better but the anti-gravity wheel shtt adds a pretty cool dynamic.

A lot of people really hate MK64 for some reason, like everyone on Giant Bomb. I played the crap out of it, and my only gripe was the meh battle mode.

anyways...

When playing Mario Kart 8 Deluxe multiplayer on the go with at least two Switch consoles (i.e., two people playing on one console in split-screen and one person playing on the other), players only have two different controller options: a single Joy-Con controller or the Pro Controller. For one reason or another, it’s not possible for players to play the game this way with two Joy-Cons attached to the controller grip, which is the standard input method for most Nintendo Switch games.



Really don't get this.

I really don't get how you can play split screen on that tiny screen.

Maybe I'm old.

Wow, well that sucks. I'm assuming single player can still play with the two joycons on a control dock.

Super odd. Must be some kind of limitation on the hardware side behind that.

That also means I can't play them disconnected from the console on my own? Or is this only 2-player?

The Beastcast talked about 4 players Mario Kart in the handheld. Lol

Not sure if it was for WiU or Switch. Never the less weird and stupid.

Cloud is on Smash. I didnt think Zelda would ever make it to Kart but lately kart has grown from just Mario universe characters to encompassing more nintendo franchise characters outside of mario

I thought the pro was going to be a must but I'm so satisfied with the joycons and grip so far bc I haven't needed the traditional spas I haven't bought one yet.

I also like the fact that when going handheld it's literally the same experience.

I will buy mk8 day 1 bc I haven't played why Wii U games.

I'm still deep into Zelda and not even close to bored yet. Taking my time exploring and collecting armor sets.. About to force myself to beat the third Divine beast just because.

I put 150+ hrs within a 2-3week period. Done all 120 shrines in and maxed out all armors, including my Amiibo ones.

I'm done. I try and go back but just burnt out.

None of yall read that right. You missed the first paragraph.

Its only if you are playing a local game on two switch consoles and one of the consoles is in split screen mode.

Of you have one console on your TV you can do whatever you want.
