IGN - "If you're a Nintendo fan, you should probably stay up tonight." [Mario Kart 8]

What catch-up mechanic? You mean the 1st-blocks-all-red-shells-while-2nd-gets-nailed-with-triple-reds mechanic? Because that's how it is in MK7 if 1st place breaks away like the person you quoted said.
You go faster if you're behind. Has always been the case.
 
All Blue Shell talk is incredibly amusing when MK7 online communities do have the option to disable Blue Shells, but then people realised how important they were and those communities got deserted (except for grinding coins).
 
WOOOO HYYYPEE ETCETRA

I was going to go to bed, but what's another 45 minutes? I'm down to end my night in severe disappointment yet again with all of you fine Nintendo fans :D
 
I have already drank one cup of coffee, finished off the rest of this cinnamon desert pizza and I have eaten two of these six hardboiled eggs I just made. Come on now with this news. Well, back to working on my reviews.

They should have just said "If you're a Mario Kart fan, you should probably stay up tonight"

Because as far as what this is about for me

Im sorry, but "news" about a game we already know a lot about does nothing for me.
 
Hope it's a new track of character.
It's probably neither since those types of reveals are saved for Nintendo Directs.

A lot? It releases in less than 2 months and we don't know shit about anything online-related, battle-related (or what are the available modes in general), MKTV which is supposed to be a big feature, and so on.

Looking in the info thread, compare that (plus all the footage you have) to what we knew about Second Son two months from release.

I totally see where the guy's coming from.

But I have a final exam in less than 6 hours. Why would you do this to me IGN?

Exams sound kinda important, although it's hard for you to rationalize it right now, the sleep your losing is far more valuable than this snippet of information we'll get from IGN about Nintendo and when you awaken it'll be right there all over the interwebs.

A lot? How many courses do we know? Items? Characters? We know some, but not much

We know 12 of the new tracks. Unless things are different that leaves only 4 new tracks left to reveal and 2 of those are bound to be Rainbow Road and Bowser's Castle.

We also know only 7 retro tracks (over probably 16), 0 new battle arena and 0 retro battle arena.
 
You know what I've wanted for years now? A rainbow road retro cup, with four of the best RR courses from the glory days.

That would be rad
