God they really need to stop sampling N64 Rainbow Road's music.

EDIT: It's N64 Rainbow Road itself lmao

8 new courses

why the fuck do they feel it's necessary to film off screen

why do the players have to be in the shot

WHY

 

[Papercuts]

Holy shit the redone Rainbow Road looks great.

 

[oreomunsta]

New trailer:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=__qp9iPKeNs&feature=youtu.be

Looks great! ^^

 

[Sandfox]

I tend to skip the console Mario Kart games but this one looks like it would be worth it jumping since I never played the Wii game.

 

[Kriken]

Is this the first time we've seen Metal Mario in MK8 or was he in an earlier trailer?

Spoiler

I honestly don't recall seeing him

Also, Rainbow Road and Piranha Plant are nice new touches

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

Shy Guy and Lakitu return, cool. ...Metal... Metal Mario? Are you fucking kidding me.

They like shiny.

See 3D World.

 

[ffdgh]

These freaking feels. Rainbow road..Royal raceway. Give this to me now!

 

[Balmung421]

Dat rainbow road!

 

[Fidelis Hodie]

Official trailer: http://youtu.be/__qp9iPKeNs

HYPEEEE!! THAT looks AMAZING!!

 

[Volotaire]

Why?

With the commitment of 60 FPS and a few other clues at last E3, I would be surprised.

 

[Mory Dunz]

Whoa

1080p?????

 

[hughesta]

Donkey Kong please close your mouth.

 

[PotionBleue]

Lol Moo Moo Meadows is such a shit track but they made it look amazing in MK8.

 

[EloquentM]

Whoa

1080p?????

It's likely a typo

 

[VanWinkle]

The trailer was fantastic. So excited for this.

Destructoid



It can't be 1080p?

I think they probably got some misinformation or something. I'm about 99% sure it will be native 720p, though id obviously be ecstatic to be wrong.

 

[Super Stardust]

The graphics are amazing, so many colors!

 

[secretanchitman]

Destructoid says the game is in 1080p? Awesome if true but I thought it was 720p.

Edit: Glad to see that the Wii U Pro Controller is officially confirmed at last.

 

[Fidelis Hodie]

Donkey Kong please close your mouth.

Haha, can't unseee

 

[Opinionatedfish]

That RAINBOW ROAD.



Oh. That was worth it. Cool. Now I shall sleep.

 

[Mariolee]

Game is looking hot.

This shit looks CG good. Holy wow

 

[MrSaturn99]

holy FUCK

 

[PotionBleue]

Dragging items is removed?

Wow. Terrible change.

 

[Ninjimbo]

That was worth it. My bro Shy Guy is in it, so I'm happy. Now where's Dry Bones?

 

[Outtrigger888]

This game looks phenomenal.

Rainbow Road...just wow.

 

[Zeyphersan]

When I get a Wii U this is SO bought

 

[Volotaire]

Did you see Rainbow Road!?

 

[Watch Da Birdie]

YES, SHY GUY!

Hope there's still some hidden characters left though.

 

[Matt Attack]

Geez louise this game is pretty.

 

[Mory Dunz]

Dragging items is removed?

Wow. Terrible change.

Yeah, not sure I like that.


Destructiod mentioned leaderboards. Was that something people were clamoring for?

 

[MetalGuardian]

Yep, the game still looks great

I was hoping for a more ambitious remix of the rainbow road music, but the course itself looks badass

 

[Parallacs]

Gasp

I haven't been this shocked about game graphics since playing the gamecube on launch night.

 

[Sylverstone14]

Did you see Rainbow Road!?

I'm in fucking awe right now.

 

[Sindou_Hikaru20]

That is N64 Rainbow Road? Wow, amazing for a retro course ^_^

 

[Ascenion]

That was sexy hot oh my gosh fucking gorgeous. HYPE HYPE HYPE.

 

[ffdgh]

That n64 rainbowroad....DAT Remix...Dang If it like that, rainbow road for 8 must be spectacular.

 

[MasterCheeze]

Aww yeah, Moomoo Meadows, that's my shit right there.

 

[Kolma]

That moment when you realized you have been saying Lakitu wrong the whole time...
they are saying it lakitu like lalala
I've been saying it lakity like lackey

I had a similiar feeling with Monster hunter with Rathian and Rathalos
I would say it Ray thian and was always unsure on Rathalos (raythalos)?
but both are said like wrath

 

[Pikma]

Jour 1!!!!!!!!!

 

[Dice]

Nice Rainbow Road music.

Still no info on a WiiU bundle with it? FFS Nintendo...

 

[jimi_dini]

holy FUCK

 

[KHlover]

Did you SEE Mario Kart 8?!

 

[Anth0ny]

that rainbow road music


soooooooo good


god damn this game is pretty

 

[Blues1990]

I'll admit that Metal Mario's inclusion (again) is disappointing, but seeing the new tracks, as well as some returning favourites, is pretty awesome.

Also, I'm going to enjoy using that boomerang power-up.

 

[ALM5252]

That is N64 Rainbow Road? Wow, amazing for a retro course ^_^

To me it might be a new Rainbow Road influenced by the N64's. It looks SUPER different, but fun.

If it's the Mario Kart 8 Rainbow Road, I hope it's hinting at the N64's version as a classic one. (assuming that wasn't it)

EDIT: Considering how much they have changed Toads Turnpike, I wouldn't doubt that was the N64's. Looks super different, not sure I "like" the change. Gotta play it in person.

 

[Shinta]

holy FUCK

 

[GamerJM]

Game looks fantastic. I'm hyped. Give it to me Nintendo.

 

[ezekial45]

The DTOID article was amended, it was a mistake.

 

[foxuzamaki]

64 rainbow road and toad's turnpike is sick!
