Its official Mario Kart World is going to be fucking trash isn't it

twitter user using Anon Babble syntax

Nice try snoi boi

2025, still playing MKWii.

sTrAiGhT LiNEs

We've seen full races and know it's not chaotic at all.

Anyone who saw grind rails for what they were: effectively no effort drifts should have been immediately reminded of modern Sonic gameplay and horrified.

This is 2/3rds of a GP race

Why would you make a flagship gamemode totally devoid of any replay value?

this

They didn't

Everything that has "open world" as a selling point is always going to be flat featureless slop. They can't have terrain with lots of walls or features everywhere because that would make hard to drive off the track. What a fucking joke.

no one replays grand prix are you autistic

cool
I've seen some footage of chaotic matches, just mostly the cpu's being traditionally passive

roads as wide as wide can be curve

WOAOAOAOAOAAOAO IT'S REALLY RAMPING UP NOW...!

slight curve right

short straight

hard left into LONG straight

sharp right into medium straight

slight left into short straight

slight left into short straight into windy roads

slight right into long straight

yes, straight lines

Why does it feel like online is going to be peak levels of sweat in public lobbies

because of mk8 deluxe
it'll be fun to see optimal paths for courses with all the platforming, though

so let me get this straight (LOL DO YUO GET IT)

Anon Babblejeets and snoys are so unfathomable buttdevastated and terrified that the only thing they can use to shitpost about mario kart... is an entirely optional feature in the most basic single player mode that is an obvious afterthought now that there's open world exploration?

man these next 8 years will be nonstop mindbreak

no 200cc

Fucking trash. 150cc is just too slow.

I do think it is kinda weird how people are saying this isn't chaotic enough when most if not all the previews are of 50cc.

That's every Mario Kart

DS lobbies are all Dry Bones Dry Bomber (alternatively people flexing with ROB but in typical snaking karts) or worse, people picking Luigi's Mansion to intentionally crash the game at the staircase

Wii is entirely Funky and Daisy with the occasional Rosa and Mii on bikes and playing with mods

7 is Metal Marios spamming SNES Rainbow Road to the point where 8 had to revamp the course selection system entirely

Yoshi haha fagfest

see you guys in 3 days when the mario kart direct BTFOs all your complaints.

People spamming SNES Rainbow Road over and over in 7 pissed me off. Literally why did they do this?

Someone post the actual race instead of a frame from the video

That's every online game

Doesn't look like it

Xitter

I'm buying 2 copies of MarioWorld then

people actually considering buying a 90$ shitty kart game

lmaoing at americans

eric still malding

MK7 changed the VR system from being a skill-based gain/loss to a static points grind, so metafags pick SNES RR because it's the shortest track and doesn't have sandbagging item luck like Toad Circuit.

Metafags are truly subhuman

this is who hates it

goty confirmed i guess

it's actually mind-blowing

faggot

no one plays for fun anymore

Nothing I've seen from this game yet has justified that retarded $80 price tag, maybe the Direct coming will change that, but I doubt it.

reddit.com/r/mariokart/comments/1jyvg01/my_experience_of_mkw_at_the_nintendo_event_london/
Nah there are more and more impressions coming from the event that Mario Kart and Donkey Kong aren't really good at all.

the astroturf shilling last year after concord shit the bed convinced me the entirety of the game media is an offshoot of sony's marketing department

not just a redditor, but a LONDON redditor

I don’t think I could muster the energy to care less than I do.

DROP THE PRICE

What do you mean "shilling"? It's universally considered the best 3D platformer ever made by users, not just critics. It's the 6th highest rated game of all time on Backloggd and the 7th highest rated game of all time on HowLongToBeat, no other platformer comes clsoe 2D or 3D.

MK8 looks better

You lost and got raped Eric

no chicken jockey no buy

Those kinds of sites have insane recency bias. I don't think it's even near Galaxy, which is already inferior to previous 3D Marios.

tendie cope in the replies saying bad course design is fine because they will play better at le 200cc

lol

Tendies really are the biggest Schizos on this board

pajeet bot farms spammed these who gives a shit sites, this means there's no shilling goy!

interesting

why are people suddenly acting like mario kart was ever about difficulty?

game journalists and paid shills said it was good, now consoom

Oh so the critiques from someone who actually played the game don't matter

same people that pretend mario kart has never had dud tracks before

I called it the game looks way too casual when the first Nintendo Treehouse live stream dropped

Lighting doesn't hit anyone behind you, nor does it hit anyone covered

ALL items can be held behind your kart as a shield

Items are now automatically held behind your kart, you don't have to hold down a button

It's almost impossible to go off-road now because of the new rail feature

I played it at the switch 2 event and the tracks are far too wide
We only played 100cc which won't have helped, but it was just a bit dull

it's mario kart. it was always casual.

LOL

normalfags love this track by the way.

I don't take the word of midwits and people who have obviously not played many platformers if they want to hold Astro Bot of all things as the greatest platformer of all time. Same reason I don't trust shills for Celeste after having played that nonsense myself.

Console warriors need to feel like the victim, so the entire industry praises Nintendo, but at the same time have a secret vendetta against them, for no discernible reason.

bad course design

Not really

I had a dream last night that Chun-Li and Sakura from Street Fighter got added to the game during the Mario Kart World direct. Which is weird because I'm not even a Smash Kart fag.

cherrypicks the 1 filler track that people still found fun because of the pure chaos with items like giant bowser shell

No it was not you fucking brain dead moron Super Mario Kart and Mario Kart 64 are difficult games and MK8Deluxe is not a casual game either when you play it online against others I have 20k points online and the game is difficult when you play against others who are really good at the game

This but anti tendies

Here 24 player(humans) gameplay. Still 100cc and forced auto steering but no one should seriously be worried about this game being unfun.
youtube.com/watch?v=cHaOXxtgH6U&t=989s

Super Mario Kart and Mario Kart 64 are difficult games and MK8Deluxe is not a casual game either

you are delusional.

y'all can bitch all you want, i'm just happy my boy the feather is back.

Here, too lazy to make a webm of this

Yes, really

You have never played these games, take your meds tranny

Jump to 16:33 for the knockout tour

Agree to disagree

Looks like it's worth $60

Troon Tris

LOL you can't make this shit up

The feather is in 8 deluxe so it never left. it's not stuck in battle mode anymore though.

self-advertisement

game still looks neat, still not worth $80

this board is unusable. pretty much nobody here plays video games. you just want to be perpetually angry over anything and call people trannies and brown. smooth brain central.

Nick Kart looks better than this

being this illiterate

idk about you, but it was ridiculously easy to get 1-3rd place on mk8d online when i played it. and i didn't even go meta
once you know the shortcuts/an iota of thought towards tricks, thats all there is

this will continue to happen unless twitter screencap threads are banned from this website

The feather is in 8 deluxe so it never left.

stuck in battle mode

so it was gone from the actual game then. also "never left" bitch it was gone for 30 years.

Except people played it and said it wasn't fun

Cool story, tranny, you still haven't played these games. Super Mario Kart and Mario Kart 64 are far from casual

Sonic Racing Crossworlds won.

I do still have some concerns about the track design but why is it that >80% of the time I see a post on twitter about how the game looks garbage I check their profile and they're a sonic fan?

using reddit as evidence for anything

go back

everybody i've looked at says otherwise

but it was ridiculously easy to get 1-3rd place on mk8d online when i played it.

You're in easy lobbies. This is not mean to be taken in a rude way. I have no desire to deal with stuff like this.

Immediately discard anybody with a checkmark because they have financial incentive to be a contrarian shithead (whereas Anon Babble posters will simply do it for free)

don't get too cocky rodent

because tumblr and deviantart are dead and they are too much of a pussy to move to bluesky

Do tell anon where are these claims? Because the majority of demo reactions have been overwhelming positive.

>"b-b-but you can turn off intermissions!"

Can you though? The option is greyed out in the menus. Looks more like they're using the same options screen for multiple modes and that modes like GP and knockout will be stuck with them on while you can turn them off for VS mode.

Thanks.
I understand why they widened the tracks for the double players, but it does make it seem a lot less hectic. I'm curious about some of the mechanics in the game though, like what determines if you can fly or not.
I think the best part of the game will be community events outside of the prebuilt nintendo systems. An open world cross country race seems like it could be neat, but I don't think you're able to do more than 4 players in the free roam mode.

300cc

For me, I just cannot get into this series because nobody actually talks about the games. It's either porn or console warring. You guys only care about how much the game sells, so you can gloat about it in famitsu threads. I never see any of the fans apologize for such blatantly bad behavior, so why should the game be considered good in any spectrum of quality?

Not gonna spoon feed you just look around

and they are too much of a pussy to move to bluesky

I can't fathom people that bitch about Bluesky or refuse to move to it, it's easy to actually talk to people or share stuff there. Is it because right-wing ragebait doesn't go over so well?

rosa tita mmmmmm

GAME IS LE BAD

that's nice, I'm still buying a Switch 2 and I'm still buying this game.

You'll survive

n-n-n-no YOU find evidence to support MY claim

concession accepted

YWNBARNF

Dude. You are on Anon Babble. What the fuck do you think happens here WITH ALMOST EVERY GAME?!

have no less than 10+ boards dedicated to porn

no, we HAVE to post porn on the blue board designed for discussion

I don't care how many games or fanbases do it, it's still wrong.

I still don't understand the point of food items, being a different skin doesn't seem to give you a significant stat change and the food is slightly out of the way.

It's almost impossible to go off-road now because of the new rail feature

What? Please be fake thats retarded if true

you're replying to either ACfag, or an ACfag roleplayer. don't expect to have a proper conversation, either way the other side isn't a functioning human.

This doesn't look fun

You can see it in that troon tris video, the retarded person playing drove off the track a la rainbow road and just ended up grinding on a rail that put him back on track.

You know, I shit on Gamecube kiddies all the time and always bring up how shit Windwaker and Sunshine are and how the rest of the catalog is mid at best.
But man, Doubledash is peak Mario Kart. It had the best items and physics.

Agree to disagree.

boo hit by banana at the end

spins full speed into the finish line

Signature items was such a cool idea. Always fun to nail someone with Yoshi's egg, then grab the star that popped out as you pass them.

based elder millennial/gen x

I wanted signature items since SMK where cpu got them but you didn't. They should bring them back, makes the game more interesting

I hope you can do cool stuff with the wall riding. We haven't seen like anyone mess around with that stuff.

Doubledash easily has the worst physics in the series thougheverbeit

I might be the only person to have DD as my least favorite MK. It controls like complete shit to me, it's like you're driving on ice. And none of the tracks are special.

fuck this I'm buying Garfield Kart instead

The slander campaign against this game purely because it costs $80 is crazy, this game will definitely be fun.
youtu.be/_XHxHIj4y5o?t=182

Mario Kart 64 was similar.

Stop shilling your account, Sonicfag.

we're going to have daily mario kart world threads every weekend with 24 racers on each private gaming session with Anon Babble!

now we just need a draw anon for the new weekly mario kart world weekend thread in June.

janny meltie

This game puts me to sleep

I hope Air Riders doesn't disappoint as well

Another nintendo IP succumbs to open world sloppa

fire emblem is next......

Do MKfags actually think that those games aren't the most uber casual games on the planet?
Everybody plays Mario Kart.

How would that even work lmao

tranime

it's good because it makes money and sold alot

Wtf I love Call of Duty and FIFA and Madden now?

might as well make it Heroes 2 at this point

sweaty F-Zerofag

please stay in your gamecube emulation containment zone thanks

game set in a massive soulless map with nothing in it that makes the gameplay overly tedious for no real benefit

it's just FE4.

Open world design killed level design

this

subhumans are seething at this

Yes, you love COD. And if you liked sports, you'd love Madden and FIFA too.

twitter screencap

watermelon emoji user

Who cares

that could work. make the overworld a dungeon also. engage the enemy by charging into them with your party at the helm. something like Shadows of Valentia.

Sonic Transformed remains undefeated after all these years.

This doesn't look worth $80 and it looks boring

it was fun because it was more than just 3 laps, you could actually lap people which puts them as a direct threat behind you, even simple green shells stayed in play long enough to be seen/threatening twice, traps could meaningfully add up. the deceptive simplicity actually bred increased chaos and threat. bananas and fake item boxes are significantly less meaningful on a simple "A to B" track, because they can only be encountered once by each player. on this track, they could be encountered over 4 times by each player.

Yeah making money and selling a lot are one of the measurable metrics of a product being good

I watched this video and it looks the same as Mario Kart 8 (which I've only played a couple of times in my life)

youtu.be/aKRg0CulNlE?si=b8U3TvHRKmqqPr6l

Nah open world can definitely elevate a game. Elden Ring is a great example. Just doesn't work for a kart racer.

Baby park without Bowser shells flying around isn't Baby park.

Is on all platforms

Bringing back Extreme Gear

Not 80 dollars

Yup, Crossworlds is going to demolish Mario Kart

Based and same. The community servers + character and track mods have made it so I don't need any other Mario Kart.

I came back from the Los Angeles event yesterday and they make you play Mario Kart locally and then they send you to another place to play Mario Kart again but this time, it's a 24 players Knockout Tour race all Lan'd up and you all have to eliminate all the other attendees in your group.

The first session with my and my friend was ok, I won 1st place both times. I play Mario Kart with Anon Babble a lot and I consider my skills to be at a decent level (knowing when to use your items because at the front of the pack, they get shittier but you still have a slight chance to protect yourself) so I had confidence when we switched over to Knockout Tour and was convinced I would get top 3 but no, that mode is completely chaos with 24 players. Everything I was supposed to do to get ahead was just met with nothing but getting hurt. The attached webm is pretty much how it felt and I was just confused because I play the series a lot and get high VR and 3stars but no, Knockout Tour just throws all that shit out the window and it was a rough time. I didn't hate it though. It was fun seeing all human players racing at once locally in pure havoc.

its definitely one of the best places for the bowser shell to shine. oh, and i also forgot lightning making people drop items, so you have more opportunities to actually pick them up off the ground for free too.

Ok but how was Donkey Kong

funky and daisy bike simulator for 17 years

No disrespect towards any wii fans but I can't endure that shit. I got tired of it over a decade ago.

which is already inferior to previous 3D Marios.

lol, lmao even. Mario 64 and Sunshine are shit. Even Nintendo realized that, that's why they went on with Galaxy and that's why Galaxy is the only 3D Mario with a direct sequel.

Sorry, I was meant to attach this.

Maybe the logic in knockout mode is different and people need to learn the best way to play or something.

It's all the same shit

MK8Deluxe is not a casual game

lol, get the fuck out. one of the main strategies out of this game is literally waiting on the starting line to get the best item. it is a game made for tiny, tiny babies

Dunno. Team Racing or whatever was pretty average so I won't get my hopes up.

They're all casual games and were designed as such. Grow the fuck up.

that mode is completely chaos with 24 players. Everything I was supposed to do to get ahead was just met with nothing but getting hurt.

Which make the complainers crying about the lightning and bullet bill being nerfed sound ridiculous. The game would be unplayable if they didn't make adjustments to the items and toning down the hitstun for everything not named the blue shell.

Maybe the logic in knockout mode is different

After I finished top12 (got knocked out super early and I just couldn't believe it. My friend managed to hang on to top8 and he's a complete beginner) I thought the exact same thing. It's Mario Kart but what you would expect from a normal race is thrown completely out the window. I have a sense there's a item formula or item occurrence rate that is set to maximum like some of the previous games when played with friends so balance is thrown out of wack.

nta but the problem isn't that this new game (and the last 2 mario karts) are casual, it's that they aren't FUN.

tendie

i strongly believe that the game would be better if characters didnt have specific/hidden stats and were genuinely all the same. weight class and stats should come from your vehicle/parts, and they should be MEANINGFULLY different from each other and not just "1 up here, 1 down there" minor stat differences. also inside/outside drift should be explicitly stated wherever applicable.

i dont really care if my vehicle is unoriginal or the same as everyone else's, but feeling like im gimped due to WHO i get to play as is fucking retarded. just let me be my favorite character without any drawbacks.

That's just the online hivemind. There are other characters that are functionally identical to yoshi.

Peach

Daisy

Birdo

Peachette

Tanooki Mario

Male Villager

Inkling Boy

how much will this board seethe when this game gets over a 90 in metacritic and sells millions

Now that's true. Both Mario Kart 7 and 8 weren't fun. They felt really bland to me.

Elden Ring is the definition of open world slop, and I have 200 hours in it.

If it's that good I'll buy a Deck just to play it.

One thing i like about world is that most hits don't kill your momentum and make you come to a complete halt. Nice to have something similar to n64 and double dash again

It's a Mario Kart game anon those game are guaranteed 85+ from game "critics"

I can understand that, but I find the physics more fun than any other Mario Kart, that's what keeps me playing.
Characters don't matter quite as much as you'd think based on how often you see 12 Funky Kong rooms. You can use Rosa, Luigi, King Boo, etc and really only be at a slight disadvantage. But it really is a shame that there isn't a larger number of viable vehicles. It truly is JUST Mach Bike and Flame Runner unless you want to gimp yourself. (or are a karter lol)

Yeah I noticed this too. I felt they did this because of Knockout Tour. You're going to be hit. A lot.

board has already been on a nearly 24/7 meltdown after the CONSOLE was announced, let alone games
i think the only reason the board isn't having an even bigger meltdown is nobody really paid attention to the T239 SOC nvidia leaks proving well ahead of time (like, years ahead of time) that it was gonna be a handheld PS4/pro, so there hasn't been any resentment stewing before the announcement
mostly i've noticed steam deck console-war threads got a second wind after switch 2 was announced

using a less powerful device to emulate on a non-existent emulator from a more powerful device

play ring racers then

How does being an open world game did elevate Elden Ring when the best parts out of that game were the so called "legacy dungeons" i.e the same type of areas present in every Souls game that came before? I will admit that the game did a good job in hiding the amount of padding and recycled content, by frontloading most of the worthwhile stuff in the beggining.

Well that's a straight line to retards.

You highly underestimate emulators

Idort actually

alguem br?

I just hope there's multicolor variants again for character like Shy Guy Yoshi Birdo etc that aren't tied to cosmetic outfits

Like I can just pick Orange Yoshi without the diner getup

non-existent emulator

Be honest with yourself, it will get an emulator in a couple of years. I can wait

thanks but i'll keep playing my supertuxkart linux exclusive

an emulator is very far off
source: running switch 1 games through a translation layer, WINE style

meu deus oe jame yo quero ensalada do fruta!

All information and previews say otherwise unfortunately. As for shy guy and birdo it seems they’ve scrapped color variants entirely

gibe emulator pls
i report u
huehuehuehueheuehue

Ok so since we already have a Switch 1 emulator we can reverse their translation layer to emulate Switch 2

xhe thinks xhe'll emulate switch 2 on their 'eck when nintendo hardened their new nvidia chip on top of using no hardware in common with the original switch

there's the software end, now about the hardware end...

Cries about Mario

Sonicfag

Ohnonononononono AHAHAHAHAHA

PSP did the same with PSX but that didn't stop PSP emulators

PPSSPP has always cucked you out of running PSX eboots thoughbeit

Still doesn't change the fact that everyone picks the exact same character. How is seeing 11 Yoshis any better than seeing 11 Funkys or 7 Metal Marios or 3 Dry Bones?

crossworlds is made by the same people who made the Initial D Arcade Racing Games not by the same devs who made Team Sonic Racing.

Yeah that's the problem. They dumbed it down for 24 player item fights. It's just a Battle Royale at this point.

You mean the people who are so casual they don't even use shrooms to take shortcuts.

Thank God.

i don't trust the opinions of anyone with a watermelon on their username

Could be the best Sonic made ever and still wouldn't beat it.

I remember back when I did play Wii, I used karts. I just never could get used to inside drift.

Are those games good?

why yes, I am a Jew who supports Israel

So you use a Switch 1 emulator for those games? If the idea is to emulate Switch 2 games, what does it matter that you can't run Switch 1 versions?

But the resolutions and framerate and textures

all that has been done for years in Yuzu and Ryujinx and with mods
youtube.com/watch?v=pT73cLQc1qA
youtube.com/watch?v=sY4gn88hk90
youtube.com/watch?v=SpLP6BnGJQ4

What's wrong, too casual for ring racers?

Yes they're beloved.

I would be more interested if it were without Sonic Team's involvement. Sumo who did Team Racing also the did Transformed but seem to have been both sabotaged (probably not deliberately, ST are just that incompetent) and become a shell of itself

damn, iddn't know you could just flip ZSNES around and suddenly your SNES would perform like a high end PC.

Ring Racers looks like doodoo. Unlike Super Indie Kart.

wha? we're talking about a switch 2 emulator
a switch 2 emulator isn't going to be a thing for a while because none of the work done for yuzu, ryujinx, etc. will translate over to this system the way that dolphin was able to segue into being a wii emulator, or work on dolphin kickstarted CEMU, or work on citra for 3DS kickstarted yuzu and ryujinx

it sucked, but I had a great time!

Why are people like this.

Can we know for sure at this stage?

we already knew years ago when nvidia leaked the T239 SoC for switch 2 and it had no architectural similarities to the preceding SoC used for switch and nvidia shield, and got confirmation again with the announcement that switch 2 runs switch games through a compatibility layer
emulator work for this system will start COMPLETELY from scratch

It's Plebbit. Only good vibes allowed. Unless it's to shit on people on the opposite side of the political spectrum, of course. Then you can publicly wish for their children to be shoved into woodchippers no problem.

Man. It's so over...

that'll be $449.99 plus tip

The game design sucks but the game is really fun I swear

Why? It just is I swear!

That's been the general reception to this game from the event I've seen. At least we have Sonic to save us this year.

How is seeing 11 Yoshis any better than seeing 11 Funkys or 7 Metal Marios or 3 Dry Bones?

Simple. I can use my favorite character and not be at an disadvantage. I'd use her reguardless of wether or not she good or bad.

Yeah it's going to be shit like "I-I thought tendies didn't care about reviews!" or "It's below 70 without the nintendo bonus!!"

I liked Transformed so I'll probably get it.
Aside, but World's Gimmick is better on paper where Crossworld's is likely better in practice. Driving the highway to the next track sounds fun, but it's clear it's just straight lines. It's open world slop creeping into Mario. Changing area midway through the race gives you some variety and makes races dynamic. It's a racing game, better the course be interesting and fun than a straight line but OHHH THE WORLD IS INTERCONNECTED

I'd rather wait for a Deck 2. $80+ games are utter nonsense and I will not support that shit. I don't mind paying for my games but I do mind when a company blatantly tries to milk me dry.
The Switch 2 pricing is fine, I don't care.

I dont get it, why would anyone want to drive around an open world in Mario kart? The game is too slow to enjoy cruising like you do in burnout and its too arcadey to remain engaged, no gear shifting, braking, no real traffic, massive straight roads, really simple environments.

I dont get it, why would anyone want to drive around an open world in Mario kart?

It's like people willingly ignore the nintendo direct for this game in a few days.

this nigga never went off-road in MK64 to check on Peach's castle

They aren't selling you a fun driving experience but a "oh, I remember this place!" experience.

there's a bunch of mechanics they haven't detailed yet like pswitches, big vehicles like a truck, boat, helicopter or ufo you can control and the game seems more platforming focused now that you can jump without an item and there are grind rails and wall jumps everywhere

Were you just never a kid or something? I remember being a kid and ignoring the race on Royal Raceway and just driving around Peach's castle trying to see if there was anything cool there. This is like that x10000.

My inner child is going to love driving all over the map. Best of both worlds for mk64 and diddy kong racing

fog everywhere

previews show frame-drops in 2P matches

Meanwhile Double Dash and Kart Wii has no fog and 60fps with 4 players

Not that guy, but I just liked racing, It's why I loved crash team racing as well

It's funny how many people ignored the leaks and assumed it'd be easy

ok, so you drive around and are bored until you see a memberberry landmark which you look at for 5 seconds before going back to driving very slowly on gigantic roads? Mario kart doesnt work without the luck based item boxes and mid race combat, its not actually that fun to just move around in.

fun fact: you can still just race, nobody is forcing you to do free roam.

The Switch 2 deserves to fail, but it won't. Modern Nintendo deserves to burn, but they won't.

they went full retard by putting in the divider in the middle for 8.

People might be afraid of another LEGO 2K situation.

people seriously think nintendo made this giant world but have nothing to do with it

We've already seen warp pipes and p-switches and other stuff scattered around. have some perspective

That's because you were gaming at a time when you had fuck all else to play and explore. Why would i care about exploring a track in a racing game when I had a million other 3d platformers and zelda which were actually made to explore? This feels like a desire that comes from snes era mariokart when 3d games didn't exist, i have no idea why anyone would retain that desire 3 decades later after playing a million open world games.

Not a single track was improved by being ported to 8.

has a ported track EVER been better than the original?

Every single track in 8

The GBA and SNES ones

meme arrows on xitter

Those aren't fun movement mechanics, its just shit in the open world. 3d mario is fun because Mario is fun to operate, his moveset is intricate and responds to the environment in granular ways. MK is just hold gas to move forward at 1 speed on a flat road and press another button to drift, i guess now you have grinding and wallriding but it still doesnt seem like enough to make exploring a giant open world particularly engaging.

I also dont really want my racing games to play like platformers, the whole point is speed and moving fast, not jumping on platforms.

Objectively I will have to say they dropped the ball with sunset wilds. even the tour version had the day to night transition

then why are you in a mario kart thread?

different colors at least

Tick Tock Clock is shit compared to its DS version. gliding is a blight on pretty much every track its added to. and don't even get me started on making N64 Rainbow Road a 1 lap abomination.

because mario kart is ostensibly a racing game and i like racing games yet you are arguing that this game is going to be great because it has this giant open world that looks boring and that you'll be able to platform over it.

I'm trying to understand what they gain from inserting an open world.

fair enough, i do love the 8 version of Donut Plains 3.

They're confirmed to be playing at 100cc

They gain the ability to do world spanning marathon races where the routing is up to the players. "Start with a lap at DK Spaceport and end with a lap at Starview Peak" type races are a pretty cool concept.

making N64 Rainbow Road a 1 lap abomination.

NEVER FORGET
NEVER FORGIVE

They tricked an entire generation into thinking 900 korok puzzles was the original purpose of the Zelda series. Kart has to do nothing besides basic key jingling to make people think off road mode is the natural evolutin of a racing game.

like SNES, Nintendo 64, Gamecube or the Switch itself no?
The emulation of the console will happen sooner or later, the important thing will be to see how fast the console will be hacked

I would've even forgiven them for making it 2 laps, and if they wanted to shorten it further, they could've made a gliding section available on lap 2 that let you do the oldschool jump shortcut. but they can't even think of something fun like that.

But that isnt interesting because the inbetween segments are rushed, poorly though out filler tracks between actual race circuits, filler between the content you actually is the number 1 complaint for every poorly made open world game. I thought that maybe the open world would be intricate so you could have creative decision making in the open world races but they dont even have that, it just pre-selects a straight line course from A-B.

so then I assume the open world exploration is the selling point but then i explained why exploring or cruising in a mariokart game seems kind of lame. They would need to overhaul the entire physics engine to make driving up and down slopes and on different surfaces feel tactile, as well as boosting the speed by 4x with traffic and tight roads to weave around

There's no 200cc though so you won't get much faster.

because the inbetween segments are rushed, poorly though out filler tracks between actual race circuits

damn bro, why are you asking me if you've already played through every inch of the game?

8 didn't have 200cc at launch either.

When he was in the pack at the beginning it looked okay, but the second he got the lead it was a snooze fest. All those straight lines, wide roads, little terrain variability, boring sights, really are doing the game no favors.

have you not looked at gameplay of this game before coming here to discuss it? The in-between segments are filler, they are incredibly simple which is why they had to introduce mechanics like hop boost and grinding to keep you entertained on these giant, straight roads.

you also had to unlock ccs in other games too, right?

Way back in the day, yeah.

That's true, but deep down you all know they would have been even better without shitty gimmicks like gliding and antigrav.

the 100cc gameplay largely vs CPUs with steering assist on. Did you people forget how boring preview gameplay of mario kart 8 looked or what?

i saw a post where a cpu did a wall ride tech to avoid falling off the edge

nintendo is doomed thread number 5 trillion

400 posts

retarded shitty board

mariokart is slow in general, its not like it turns into burnout at 200cc, this also doesnt change the nature of these long, straight very wide roads.

Antigravity I don't care about, but yes the gliding completely disrupts the flow and should've never been in the series.

I’ve tried not making doomer threads but no one talks in those. This is just how you get a thread going

Funnily enough Anon Babble is probably the most positive on Nintendo right now. Reddit and TikTok are significantly more negative.

unironically admitting to PRETENDING to be retarded for (you)s

you're literal trash dude

How dare people not unconditionally praise dogshittendo. What a shit board! I'm going back to redit and tiktok

Reddit and TikTok are significantly more negative.

Not really. You'll get one or two posters going with the usual Nintendo bad rhetoric copied from here but other than that people are generally pretty positive towards them. Even the debacle about the pricing of games calmed down when they realised there was an actual reason.
It's pretty much only Anon Babble that's angry with them.

I honestly turned off the Treehouse stream after like 5 minutes. The tracks look fucking boring, they are Mario Kart Tour tier.

Nintendo doesn't know how to design games anymore. This has been obvious for a while.

It still has a lot going on, that's just one of the early game boring areas. There's some crazy shit going on even in the filler tracks, and it's going to be a lot of fun with 200cc and people that are actually good.

Good luck anywhere else on the internet right bootlickerbro

There’s hazards and different paths. Everyone is jumping to conclusions.

You gonna need 250cc+ to make them not fucking boring by the looks of it.

This is demonstrably not true lol. Tiktok could be your feed but r/gaming is significantly harsher on Nintendo than Anon Babble

just two more weeks bro

retards

tiktoks posted today crying about 90 dollar games and other fake news getting 500k views

ok

"fartist"

doesn't draw fart fetish art

my day is ruined

Elden Ring is the opposite of open world elevating a game.

Sonic fans are really out in full force after Crossworlds flopped

If there's a pecking order between PC, Playstation, and Nintendo, Nintendo is 3rd and is objectively the most hated and ridiculed on reddit of basically the only two other options.

IM SICK OF THIS SHIT JUST GIVE ME ANOTHER SONIC RIDERS GAME, WHY THE FUCK DID THE SONIC CAR RACING GET MORE POPULAR THAN RIDERS?

Crossworlds will absolutely outsell Mario Kart. Combination of multiplat + higher quality + 60 dollars will be huge.

You guys said that about Transformed and TSR only for them both to flop

I know your pain brother

i can get a verified third party to middle man a bet between us. your life vs 100k. if you're actually this retarded i'll set it up just lmk

They didn’t, Sonic Racing and Sonic Riders games both sold exactly the same
Both barely broke 1 million

why do you care so much about an incredibly shitty SSX clone?

Yeah, just like how Sonic Superstars outsold Mario Wonder

No one says you can’t criticize Nintendo. You’re fucking obsessed and making bad faith arguments to push your fanboy hatred. It’s insufferable.

Crossworlds will absolutely outsell Mario Kart

In two weeks for sure bro

Whatever you say tendie retard. There's at least 1 schizo that has a meltdown every time you do so

I hope the put the OG Animal Crossing on GCN NSO

They still don't let you race doubles like in Double Dash huh? Double Dash was just so much fun to play multiplayer and added such a great tactical side to it all. I don't understand why the last one didn't offer that as a race mode.

(It's good for playing with kids/girlfriends too because you can switch to let them race the easy parts and then take over for any difficult parts)

Grand Prix is the mode literally everyone plays in multiplayer, retard. No one just plays courses one by one.

One had a better theme than the other

maybe because we wont get another SSX game and by extension another riders game

It's universally considered the best 3D platformer ever made by users, not just critics

Except Mario Galaxy ranks above it on every list.

TSR wasn't good.
Transformed and All-Stars 1 were both great games, however. A shame they didn't bury MK then, because they deserved to.

Nah he's right. You tell lies and troll people for a living to get attention. You're not going to get the best quality replies to your types of posts. What you say and do barely constitutes communication. You're just shouting and angry.

mile-wide tracks

uninteresting hallway track design

jfc how did they greenlight this soulless shit?

He has to go back 20 years to find a better tendie game

kek

Don't underestimate hardcore tendies and their attach rates. Mario Kart 8 on Wii U, not even the Switch version, sold more than twice as much as Riders, TSR, and Transformed combined.

They weren’t good at all, if they were people would have played them online.
People would rather pay $500 for Mario kart than take Sonic racing for free unless Sega can drastically improve their games

Very homosexual post.

Odyssey as well out ranks it as well, fuck I don’t think there’s a single 3D mario it outranked outside of 3D land which was its primary inspiration.

Prove me wrong

I have no interest in Crossworlds and I don't care that they put Extreme Gear in it
Bring back the SEGA characters and make it an All Stars game
If you're going to bring back Extreme Gear then bring back Sonic Riders and make an actual dedicated Riders game and have Riders be the all Sonic characters kart racer

My word is law.

Not user rated ones which are the most important

I can't complain either way. I'm just happy to have more 3d platformers.

Why does nintendo make Anon Babble seethe so hard? is it really that one console war fag spamming threads here?

mario kart was never good

It's just one or two people who do this all day. Sony and Xbox fans dropped off the map last gen.

The worst selling Mario Kart (that RC car one for the switch) sold more than the best selling Sonic Racing game, there's no universe where Crossworlds gets even a fifth as many sales as Mario Kart World. Odds are five years from now Mario Kart world will have sold 30x more copies than Crossworlds.

they literally can't afford the games in their countries. the browning of the internet coincides perfectly with the rise of sonygggers on Anon Babble. it's just a massive inferiority complex combined with sour grapes

straight lines

wide turns

only gets the most interesting towards the end

dash pads everywhere

...So, it's a Mario Kart game?

I think person in OP literally added "dash pads everywhere" to make his list of complaints look longer. I have no idea how that's a negative.

Mario kart will literally need to be given away with the console to even come close to Crossworlds success

heh...I understand.

It's lazy level design. Having to rely on the dopamine of speed boosts to make it "fun" rather than having engaging design by itself.

Mario Kart tracks can get bendy as fuck, the whole drift mechanic is in the games not just for boosts but because you legitimately need it to take some corners. This game definitely seems more straightforward than regular mario kart.

It makes sense. Any retard can spew their drivel here without repercussion or shame and rules one and two were broken ages ago so the site is easy for any retard to visit. It's a safe haven for braindead fanboys to sperg out over any iota of criticism.

Looks fine to me. You must not play much mario kart.

temple run tier game design.
