Mario Kart World was originally made for the switch 1

The Mario Kart world devs knew the game would be a boring straight line fest

Their "solution" was just the wall riding and tricks system

This game will suck.

artificial driving

Miss me with this gay shit.

Sonic Racing Crossworlds won

I think these tricks will really give players a chance to use their imagination as they come up with ideas like "I'm gonna drive up that wall," "Let me use that pillar," or "Can I ride that guard rail or power line?"

bro just make your own fun lmao

When has this ever worked? It’s the mark of laziness when you throw shit at the player and tell them figure out how to enjoy it themselves. Guess that explains it being open world slop. My fav part about it

wall riding and rail grinding was shoehorned into the stages rather than the stages being designed with them in mind

When it turns out these paths are far slower than driving normally and end up feeling like shit in the actual tracks, this is why

but with too many bends, you lose sight of your destinatiom

wut

This shouldn't have taken 8 years to make.

When has this ever worked?

In the Tony Hawk's Pro Skater series, because everything was built around it.

Do you not play with friends or family?

All my coworkers are getting this game and love the idea of how open it is, we are making jokes about mario kart road trips.

double dash was the last good mario kart the rest are just surviving off nostalgia like every other nintendo ip

Normal people are consistently over-impressed with "freedom" in games, especially when it comes at the cost of difficulty and variety.

K bro.

I guess I'm not the target audience because this sounds like garbage.

It's a racing game, it's one of the easiest games to pick up and play.

They could've went the diddy kong racing route, let vehicles transform for all terrain at certain points to switch between aircraft and ship/sub mode. Would've allowed for sky based tracks and real all terrain travel.

enjoy your watered-down overpriced kids games "bro", keep living in the past

Thanks, I will.

All my friends hate racing games. I keep telling them that it's not fucking gran turismo. Its just Mario kart. Its funny, but they are either too autisticly against racing games or too poor to buy it. I literally offered to give one of my friends a copy of Mario kart 8 as a gift and he straight up said no.

because everything was built around it

Yes, because it was baked into the idea. Here, it’s a mere afterthought because they realized the game was boring, so it’s not gonna mesh well at all. The wall riding isn’t there to enhance the stage, it’s there because they went “where can I shove this in the stage…”
Well of course normies would be excited to slurp the slop, but after 10 minutes of gawking at the scenery your gonna find it kinda boring, especially compared to actually racing, and them you’ll be asking why they even added it in the first place

Not so fast

Normal people are consistently over-impressed with "freedom" in games

Yeah, it goes hand in hand with open world games, normalfags love that and also the "this arcade shooter that ruled the fps genre because it was arcade is now realistic!!", they love this kind of shit.

That "title" design is already a bad sign

You can play with us, anon.

New Mario Kart

New Air ride game developed by Sakurai

online port of F-Zero GX

a new FAST game

Golden age of the arcade racer.

bro just make your own fun lmao

This has been the design ethos of Nintendo for the whole Switch era and it's fucking miserable

I normally do, can't wait for Anon Babbleeekends

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Hope you finally kill yourself once the games releases to glowing reviews and high user scores as all mainline Mario Kart games do, retard.

and wario collosseum is permanently memoryholed for the 4th time.

Holy shit, we're really going to have to wait for the next game in every one of Nintendo's series to come out before the fucking emergent gameplay cancer goes away, aren't we? They'd had this bullshit planned since fucking 2017 even before BOTW and Odyssey had been out long enough to have decent user feedback on whether any of this shit was good. I guess there stupid 2017 GOTY reward got to their head. Fucking stupid as hell man.

This game will suck

No one wants to admit this but in a few years it will be the mainstream opinion. This thing would be Concord-level clowned on if it didn't have your little Mario characters in it. The racing looks boring as shit.

it'd be a shame if you were driving in a straight line the whole time

proceed to implement rail grinding, literally locking the player to a straight line

Are they just retarded?

Already on it's way to outselling Mario Kart 8. Every time you guys proclaim somethings failure you are proven wrong 9 times out of 10.

Hello shill.

double dash is a fucking turd, and ironically only held high due to nostalgia

So when is the Mario Kart x Fisher Price collab?

Reminder that they were caught using ai in this trash

They should have put more emphasis on the tricks during the marketing videos because they look like a lot of fun.

When has this ever worked?

Super Mario 64.

retard

Right after the Mario Kart x Baby Shark collab and the Mario Kart x Ms. Rachel collab.

How does he do it Anon Babbleros?
This retard schizo posts near 24/7, every hour. It's honestly impressive, and I hope he gets paid for all his work.
Imagine doing that for free, how depressing and meaningless your life must be

Nobody talks like this

Just make Mario Skateboarding

I hope you're getting paid to type this.

tony hawk tuah pro sleeping would sue him.

building up SUPER and performing a Jumpman over Bombomb mountain

shuddup and take my money

I want Mario Eukankanto

can't rotate the apple

he didn't sue Dave Mirra's Freestyle BMX, which had two (three?) games

I feel like that has to be a placeholder logo for the teaser until we get some real info.

nintendo acting like they're the only open world racing game ever. maybe they should've realized their hyperfixation on every race track ending where the next one begins is retarded.

NOOOO YOU HAVE TO BELIEVE ME, EVERYTHING IS A STRAIGHTLINE LIKE THE INTERMISSIONS

why would you assume that, there's a whole bunch of gd from nintendo's current era exactly like it

If you listen to cultists into Star Citizen, that's the only way for them to have fun as the basics of the world have you working as a delivery boy/pirate/miner or you paypig your way to just being a griefing asshole.

Still buying Mario Kart World

I like to think Sakurai does stuff different.

Nah, that's not actually the scenario at hand, at least with the Pro Skater series. With THPS/Classic Mode, having to string together goals and doing so within the timeline makes routing into an actual challenge, especially with the additional mechanics within that routing (e.g. switching between multiple objects and doing air tricks in order to keep your balance bars manageable). You're not being let loose to make you're own fun, you're being actively challenged. It's really only once you get to the free roam Tony Hawk games that it becomes similar to what's going on with World Tour.

Jesus, are those supposed to be the actual tracks? The whole idea was that at least the game past the intermissions would have decent courses, but these tracks are also mostly straight lines with minimal bends.

these tracks are also mostly straight lines with minimal bends.

Doesn't look like it

are you blind?

I haven't seen course design that'd put me this much to sleep since Wario Stadium

Have a (You) for effort

I'll take that and a notice that you have no counter-argument, although that should go without saying it one cannot argue against str8 fax, boi

Anon Babblejeets seething because the chaotic kart racer game now has even more chaotic mechanics where you're supposed to jump on things you encounter randomly on tracks

you dumb trannies will complain about everything

I don't debate anything with trolls. Hope this helps.

>bro just make your own fun lmao

When has this ever worked?

It's the core of just about every great game to date.

Yes, now you can all hold down the A button together, without any competitive incentive whatsoever!

bro just make your own fun lmao

I think we've reached the final stage of brain damage where posters here just post words that have no meaning whatsoever

like using core mechanics to interact with the game is "making your own fun" as if there was some magical type of interaction where fun was independant of your own actions and the game forced you to enjoy yourself with a gun to your head

complete mental illness

It does. I now know that you've slithered out from 2007 and that you need to go back to your nursing home, Grandpa

Ok

That's not at all what that said, improve your reading comprehension schizo snoytroon.

When has this ever worked?

Minecraft? Roblox? GTA5 RP? Some of the most successful games ever made? You fucking dumb fuck?

he straight up said no.

Incredibly based

Sounds shit. I'll just watch hololive tournament.

oh look it's Greg. He's going to ask as to play Mario Kart with him again.

You know he plays his gameboy switch in the lunch room

what a loser

how much you bet he's going to bring another copy of Mario Kart for this year's Secret Santa like last year?

Wait, so Greg is friends with a group of women?

Coworkers are not your friends

When has this ever worked?

On every single game worth a shit made in the last 40 years

People are just going to stick with mk8, this game looks too dull and nobody cares about it.

nice cope poorfag

You'll survive.

are they talking about the races, or driving around in the overworld?

40 million sold minimum

The whole fucking point of racing games is routing and finding an optimal path. That isn’t “make your own fun,” it’s basically the entire skill curve.

If you want an example of this principle applied to non-racing games, look at the classic Sonic titles. You’re given a relatively open platformer map and a set of tools to traverse it, but the way in which you do so is almost completely free-form and can drastically affect your time.

>shoehorned into the stages
You are legitimately retarded if you think that this change was an afterthought. You can go and watch the treehouse footage for yourself and see how many shortcuts are dependent on them.

All this does is open up new decision making opportunities within the gameplay. There is no world where it’s a bad thing on principle

no mention of the sonic game

retard.

This.

tendie shitch xisters....

mario kart was never good after double dash.

OLD GOOD NEW BAD

riveting revolutionary opinion

This. I can't into nuZelda for this reason.

riveting revolutionary opinion

Then make good new games instead of shitty ones retard, it's not that hard.

they do, far better in every conceivable way, you're just old and don't enjoy video games anymore

they do, far better in every conceivable way, you're just old and don't enjoy video games anymore

No they do not and this is provable. Games used to innovate even nintendo games. They no longer do because they can sell slop to people like you who are too stupid to know better.

adding jumping at will, chain tricking, grinding on rails, riding on walls, and bouncing off of terrain for speed boosts isn't innovating because... because it just isn't, okay!!!

>adding jumping at will, chain tricking, grinding on rails, riding on walls, and bouncing off of terrain for speed boosts isn't innovating because... because it just isn't, okay!!!

See innovation in a racing game should make the racing more fun, not add a bunch of nonsense that doesn't do that.
You can add things that are negative or neutral like

jumping at will, chain tricking, grinding on rails, riding on walls, and bouncing off of terrain

and have it still be negative or uninteresting due to the fact that doesn't improve a game's main focus in any measurable standard.
It's like they've lost all their good game designers over the years.

your opinion is not fact
adding more options for things to do other than "drive in a straight line" and "drift" is fun in the opinion of most sane people

your opinion is not fact

adding more options for things to do other than "drive in a straight line" and "drift" is fun in the opinion of most sane people

your opinion is not fact

weird that applies exactly to you doesn't it? The game looks like shit and costs 600 dollars to boot, it's shit.

cope, seethe & dilate.
game is gonna be LUDO

I disagree.

double dash

Shut up cubie

I disagree.

You have every right to do that, I have every right to think you're a retard.
Glad were all happy.

see that's the thing though
the opinion of some seething 40 year old who yearns for "the good ol' days" doesn't matter, you have zero impact, no game will ever be designed with you in mind because you will never be satisfied
people who still like video games do matter, though

the game not made for switch 1. the project started as a switch 1 idea. and never became a switch 1 program

Sure.

people who still like video games do matter, though

And my opinion is that if you're buying modern video games you don't like video games at all, you just like novelty.
The quality of the modern video game is simply nonexistent, too much cross pollination with mobile slop tactics.

No fucking gameplay shown yet

I don't want to see any praise about this game until we get some actual footage instead of smash bros cutscenes.

it's a switch 1 game moved to switch 2 to sell units

a bunch of adults in the wage cage laughing about how theyre going to spend most of their salary that month on a 480p brick to play a 30 year old childrens game incorrectly together

americans are not human

Sega kart racers games were never good after Sonic&Sega All-Star Racing Transformed.

i'm sorry you seem to be under the impression that i care about your opinion on games
nobody does
you are a void, empty, meaningless, nothing of value to be found
maybe someday you'll learn "i don't like things" is not a personality

you and your coworkers are faggot manchildren

Oh we don't care what thirdies think.

SAAR WE LOVE MARIO KART

that's why looks like garbage, interesting

bro just make your own fun lmao

god fucking dammit you nailed it

Nintendo India, please go.

Why are tendies getting so mad at that dude for accurately calling this shit out. They made straight lines, realized it sucked, and threw in random shit as a band aid. They admit it in the damn article.

Kirby Airiders

Sakura inevitably misses the point of what people liked about City Trial, he openly hates competitive shit with any remote semblance of a skill ceiling now so kiss strategy or any kind of tech goodbye. That or he makes it different out of spite like he did with Smash

The standard air ride mode is fucking not what people remember the game for and honestly wasn't that great

This shit isn't Mario Kart, it's not getting 32 tracks, probably won't go far beyond 9 (original game's count)

all for the low low price of $70 because modern Nintendo isn't going to sell a Kirby game for any less

oh joy i can't wait

even mario kart isnt safe from being turned into open meme you can climb that mountain slop

I won't defend the intermissions since those did look boring, but almost every single straight path section from the actual tracks had things going on.

DK Spaceport has giant barrels for you to avoid, walls to ride and rails to grind

Whistlestop Summit has rails for you to grind

Crown City has traffic to avoid and rails to grind

Acorn Heights has giant acorns to avoid and mushrooms to bounce off of

Admittedly, that's a lot of rail grinding and I don't know how fun that will be, but there's definitely things going on in this game's straight section.

I'm going to sound like that miiverse autist but that explains the plastic looking water. Would it kill them to make it more blue or close to Double Dash colors?

It unironically might work in this instance because you're asking the player to find better sources of speed along that straight line than the other players/racers.
Of course, whether or not it actually works that way or if it just sucks dick remains to be seen.

lmao you are really brain damaged

Admittedly, that's a lot of rail grinding and I don't know how fun that will be

I don't think the fun will necessarily be in the rail grinding itself but rather your decision to do it and how you use it to your advantage.

Correct me if I am wrong but take DK Spaceport for example. It seems to me that when you are about to reach the next climbing section, you have to position yourself beforehand so that you are able to make it onto the rails to begin with. You also have to choose whether you will take the rail path to stay safe from certain items or take the riskier main path with barrel obstacles but with more chances to gain speed from the dash panels. It may not seem all that exciting when watching but when playing, I can imagine it being fun to have to quickly weigh these decisions in your head on a moment's notice.

Mario Kart World was originally made for the switch 1

Kek no it wasn't. It was prototyped on Switch. They couldn't make the game they wanted. Development was shifted to Switch 2 and spent 5 years in development on the system.

Find a way to cope schizo.

The game is still a straight line fest and no tricking and grind railing and wall riding doesn't make up for it.

The absolute state of this schizo. Hold out for that Switch 2 emulator in 2030.

Player agency is controversial now

Jesus fucking Christ...

sit in a canned animation

The fuck are you talking about? Wall running doesn’t force the player to give up control of their car at all. It’s literally just a vertical track piece that players can navigate at their choosing. Electing to drive on a wall to avoid other players or choosing not to is precisely the “modify your path so you don’t crash into them” you claim is somehow absent here.

Rail grinding is limiting, yes, but it doesn’t lock you into any kind of animation. You give up yaw control of your kart in exchange for a stronger mini turbo than what you could obtain otherwise. It’s a very standard risk-reward mechanic.

Calling Sonic free form is retarded

How? There are tons of paths you can take through a stage depending on your skill level and player character (especially in later entries). For example, from the low path to the high path and back to the low path would grant a different experience from staying on the low path for most of the stage then managing to make it up to the high one. Sure, Sonic CD expanded this design ethos to its logical extreme, but it’s in all of them to some extent.

I am positive if they added the spin dash today and described it in a similar fashion to how the MKW devs are talking about their new mechanics (ie a decision vector), you’d be bitching about it being a “make your own fun” addition as well.

This shit is just "do X, sit in a canned animation for a few seconds".

Why do you feels so strongly about shit you haven't even bothered to research?

Why do you feels so strongly about shit you haven't even bothered to research?

Because he's seething with jealousy.

why would you want to emulate something that has no games anyway
