Okay... maybe $80 isn't THAT expensive

they look the same

there were people who thought world was running in a Switch one

lol
lmao even

the price didn't increase, it's called inflation

Why do tendies go crazy about the most mundane shit?

Oh wow, more Mario kart. That's surely worth $10 more than the new Donkey Kong game

its literally the same game. they just paid some indians to update the models.

nintendies dont seem to even know what a game worth full price is anymore.

Never be able to tell them apart if they weren't labeled

the water didn’t rise, it’s called tide.

Refreshing to see a generational jump in graphics after the Switch was so close to Wii U due to turning a home console into a handheld

mkw2.mp4 - 1080x600, 2.27M

just because you are uneducated and ignorant and can't recognize two different games doesn't mean they are the same. anyone who has played the previous game for more than 5 minutes can very easily see the changes

the open world aspect they just stole that idea from Burnout Paradise

This looks the same.

still like the font tin MK8 more

Utter cope, the difference is literally night and day. If you're in this thread try it yourself, 100% of people will be able to tell which is which

Part of what made mario kart 8 so unfun was that pros were just too good too far ahead. No matter how many times I would hit them, I would never inch closer. they just keep getting further away. Seeing those boosts in kart world is not assuring

it will look good on 4k tvs and 120fps makes a huge difference.

sorry bro, the cult has already established that every mario game is identical, regardless of whether its in the same genre or not. red hat man = zero effort copy and paste slop, end of discussion

didn't deluxe fix that? i know it got rid of some tech.

You're delusional.

thats a hardware difference. the game is $80 as if they put a ton of work into it.

these look like the same game, except the Mario Kart 8 footage is in like 720p while the MKW footage is in 1080p.

nintendo fans really are the biggest suckers in gaming no even a close second but yes world does look better

MKW looks phenomenal, can't believe I'm hyped for a mario kart game.

you are wrong. it's funny that you would even try to guess resolution from a shitty super compressed gif lmao are you stupid?

*4k

80 dollars

Rookie numbers. People burned thousands, tens of thousands on, KartRider

Mario Kart 8 is nicer to look at. Don't care if Mario is fatter and the ice texture is slightly sharper i World.

what am i looking at here

I want to get a 4K TV for the Switch 2, does anyone have any reccomendations?

pauses footage

zooms in %500

SEE THE PIXEL ON THE LEFT AND THE PIXEL ON THE RIGHT? DO THOSE LOOK THE SAME TO YOU????

takes color picker

SEE THOSE HEX VALUES??? MARIO'S HAT IS 1% MORE RED NOW

prepares a url link to a 1 hour frame-by-frame youtube anaylsis of the 10 new exciting details you might have missed

HOW COULD YOU HAVE NOT SEEN THAT MARIO HAS MORE MUSTACHE FOLLICLES FROM BEHIND?

cool strawman

I’m happy the kart designs look vastly better this time around. Most of the parts in MK8 were ugly as hell and Nintendo didn’t even bother adding new ones after the wave of Wii U dlc despite the game selling over 65 million copies.

supply and demand

$80 has the same buying power as $60 did in 2017
you niggers are acting like LITERAL boomers
this is 70-year-old boomer behavior

Shut the fuck up

RAISE THE PRICES

awful track design

Grow up cloudy

There are definitely style differences. Which is to say 8 has a better style.

Looks the same (good)

Has way more features

This is what I want from console upgrades

Left even looks better here. I think Mario Kart World is suffering from the visual downgrade that comes from trying to make day/night cycles work.

Will things around the track still be huge?
I remember that some images show that Mario is smaller than things like garbage cans and fire hydrants.
Now with open world they'll have to keep the scale of things correct, I think....

Graphics look like they were made by AI

All tracks are now straight meaning getting ahead is harder

Treehouse direct showed off lag where someone ran into a player’s shell but the player still kept their item

Items come out automatically now, meaning there is less item strategy

Diddy Kong got removed because of P Diddy

Still no Funky Kong

Instead the props you find in certain Mario games are now playable

No

game will stay there when i get the console at a black friday discount this or next or the following years. i ain't paying full price for it.

I hope Nintendo raises the price to $110. Nobody has given Snoy shit for it, despite it being the same fucking game they've released 4 other times, so Nintendo should be able to release the first MK game in over a decade for that budge friendly $110 price point.

Have you tried a version that's not 240p?

Maybe it's because I'm used to good racing games but both of those look extremely slow, not fun at all.

I will simply buy the bundle

The problem is, while costs have gone up, wages haven't

How do people fall for trolling this obvious

This "generational leap" to actual lighting occurred a nearly a decade ago.

OP shitting blood over the latest Nintendo masterpiece

rook same

It's 100cc, retard.

Just as dumb as buying the new FIFA game every year.

Buying yearly rehashes is the same as buying a long awaited sequel to an 11 year old game that changes the gameplay significantly and showcases a generational jump in graphics.

Meanwhile, for 40 dollars.

Is that partly why things look so washed out? Or is that simply Nintendo’s love of the bloom effect?

Your wages didn't increase and neither did your savings, it's called inflation.

all the maps are completely flat

This is true, real-time lighting is always worse.

The new karts visibly have more geometry. They're rounder looking.

Where'd the contrast go? Looks so flat

Welcome to why mass migration slave labour is bad.

it still has a lot of baked lightning but I agree day/night cycles are not worth it.

MKW is actually 1440p

I ask that about everyone who buys the yearly Madden games for the Playstations.

OP using 240p comparisons of tracks that don't really highlight World looking any better, but saying it looks way better to get a negative reaction

clever

Gonna have to point out these differences you keep insisting exist.

Mario Kart World can't handle stuff like traffic or big track design effects anymore because all of the system resource is going to day/night cycles, offroad elements and 24 player accessiblity.

Which is a lesser problem than sending all of our jobs over to other countries to minimize wages.

"long awaited sequel"

Still using repurposed assets

Soulless matte pastel art style

ll tracks are now straight meaning getting ahead is harder

We still trying to push this incredibly blatant bullshit faggotry?

Diddy Kong got removed because of P Diddy

This is a new shitpost.

Looks like more Mario Kart to me, bub

muh graphics

It looks like a PS4 (2013) game

The right has more saturation, if you boosted the saturation of MK8 it would look near identical to this next gen Mario game

If the names weren't there I'd have no clue which was which.

changes the gameplay significantly

The physics look exactly the same as MK8 and it still has coins and shit, so I'm gonna say no.

The main difference seems to be that Mario Kart 8 had much more dense scenery and dynamic track design. I guess they had to remove a lot of stuff from World to accomodate 24 players and the day/night changes. Sad to see.

That'll be $450 for the hardware and $80+tip for the same game, please.

80$ for a fucking Mario

The only way I would pay $80 for a Mario Kart game is if they reveal you can get out of the kart and do an entire RPG campaign in the open world.

supply and demand

/thread

It isn't, but it sets a new precedent that will have a ripple effect throughout the entire industry.

I ain't buying it but my stupid friend buys every console so he'll probably bring it over to play MK

Looks like they added some animation principals into the World game. Maybe animation techniques they learned in Wonder

see Precedent doesn't mean anything if it's not cost effective.
If the industry can make a profit over $80+ games, then all that proves is that the previous MSRP was too low

expanding on drift levels

I hate it

I thought nintendo was suppose to be cheaper

Nintendo hasn't been "cheaper" since the Wii

Nobody comes to Anon Babble for genuine discussion anymore. They come here to get mad at strawmen and rage about things they hate.

A game where you just mindlessly drive around tracks three times over and over isn't even worth $40 to me. Granted I never "got" racing/fighting games. Felt like pointless shit.

both are shit

kartsh8.jpg - 2811x2744, 635.38K

It's a return to form!

left side looks better

Imagine shilling Funky Kart Wii in 2025.

im not shilling mk wii, im pointing how terrible mario kart 8 looks

switch dlc doesn't count

Hair barely moves in new version

Already a downgrade

why is mk8 so grey

besides graphical effects I feel everything looks too bare compared to 8, 8 seems to have more detailed courses

This holy shit 8 mogs

tendies be like: GUYS GUYS MARIO KART 8 WAS SHIT ALL ALONG!!!!!!!!!

Oh fuck off

Mario Kart 8 is suddenly bad
OoT is suddenly bad
Rare DK is suddenly bad

What's the next game that shills will claim that was shit all along just so they can shill the new product?

2 weapon load outs from deluxe return

20 person or whatever races

Fucking hell this is going to be a nightmare

11 years and they couldn't improve on the visuals?

It was, though. The only people who ever defended MK8 are zoomers
You're also confused about what a tendie is, it seems.
