Hell, it should have been part of the main game to begin in, but it's pretty damn shitty they were not even part of the season pass. Way to leave the Wii U owners in the dust I guess. What a great company.
Have we actually seen the Piranha Plant item in any races yet?
What? It's the essentially the same amiibo outfits they had last time except now Isabelle's in there.They can't make new tracks, but they sure can make more stupid amiibo exclusive content.

You're really pushing it with this one lol. Ridiculous.
What do you mean? It's part of the base game.
>"it's a goddamn early access version"Ridiculous is the fact that they couldn't be arsed to release this for Mario Kart 8. The only fucking MK Wii U got, and it's a goddamn early access version.

Personally I feel a little annoyed since my GF and I primarily play Battle Mode in MK8 despite its limitations so I can get it although I don't feel as angry as some. I thought that the least Nintendo could have added in more Battle Mode modes or maps with the DLCs since there were so few maps. I'm hoping there will be some option to get it cheaper on Switch for those that already own it on WiiU but even if there is it'll probably just be for digital owners.Is this the same way people feel about buying Monster Hunter before the G version comes out?
Seriously, 90% of the content is the same. The game on Wii U has reached the end of shelf life. Nobody's getting fucked over here, Nintendo actually made more content to extend the life of the game.
I don't really get it when people are acting like entitled about Mario Kart 8 Deluxe since I don't really see many people being upset about definitive editions or any straight ports the companies have done.
Why are y'all singling Nintendo out when there are way more ports with less or no additional contents by other companies?
I'm not sure if you are being sarcastic but it don't really take much time to make a mii costume.

Battle Mode in MK is one of my favorite things. MK8 launched with a completely and utterly disappointing Battle mode, and I hoped they would fix that eventually with DLC. You know, bring it to the standard set by previous games.Is this the same way people feel about buying Monster Hunter before the G version comes out?

I think because its currently being marketed at 60 dollars. I think people would ease up, including myself, if it were 50.
Nintendo has nothing to gain from supporting the Wii U version. It's a dead system that isn't even being sold, anymore. Even if they updated the Wii U Battle Mode, barely anyone would care & it wouldn't translate to very many sales. Nintendo has a new console to push, plain & simple.Battle Mode in MK is one of my favorite things.

Instead, Nintendo releases a new full price package that requires you to spend 330 in completely new hardware, as well as forcing you to pay for online play.
That's shitty no matter how you slice it. There are no technical limitations that make this content a impossibility on the Wii U version.
.... Ehhhh.... I'll get it..... Battle Mode is tugging at my heartstrings.

Why support a dead console? Nintendo's completely done with the Wii U after March 3rd.
The only thing they'll be supporting are the online servers. They even stopped moderating Miiverse.Because people will still play the wii u after, and they are entitled to have that battle mode. Just because there won't be any more 1st party games after zelda on wii u, doesn't mean they'll stop support completely either.
Bummed that Block City & Skyscraper are not returning, but with the inclusion of the revamped Battle Mode, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is definitely the ultimate entry in the Mario Kart series.
The Wii U version does have a Battle Mode, owners of it aren't owed anything.Because people will still play the wii u after, and they are entitled to have that battle mode.

They got a ton of tracks and a great deal for DLC.
I own 8 and love Battle Mode so I'm in for Deluxe despite paying for most of what I already have.
They need to sell systems and a portable 8 with a revamped Battle Mode is good business though it was inevitable to cause bitterness.

I'd hardly call what's in MK8 a battle mode, without arenas it's terrible.
Mario doesn't like a mess.
Oh, I guess this pic confirms you can choose different amounts of balloons? Am I correct in thinking 5 balloons is all we've seen before this?
I cannot recall seeing it in any videos or screenshots for Deluxe.What do you mean? It's part of the base game.

Oh man this will be fun. Do we know the number of battle arenas? I hope it is more than just 4. Give me 8 at least Nintendo!
No, to do that would be to make these battle modes DLC for MK8 on Wii U. This is same ol moneygrab Nintendo fan manipulation.They're really making up for MK8's lack of battle
I know I am. This was the last straw for me. They had 2 1/2 years to respond to the most immediate fan response to the game (which was otherwise a perfect MK game) of wanting the mode that is pretty much universally understood to be the most fun ever had in the franchise, and they saved it for a new system to try and pressure Wii U owners (who were obviously their most loyal fans) into buying a new system for it. It's disgusting and I'm done with them.Yeah its shit. Looking back I'm still surprised at what they did with it.
Of course Nintendo doesn't necessarily owe anybody anything, but at the same time if you feel burned as a consumer you're free to take your money elsewhere.
How do I get my Mii on the Switch? I thought miis are dead

He remembers what he went through in Sunshine.
Either make one in the Switch's System Settings or transferring them from your Wii U/3DS via an Amiibo.How do I get my Mii on the Switch? I thought miis are dead
And again, why support a dead system where said DLC wouldn't be that profitable long after the Wii U's demise?No, to do that would be to make these battle modes DLC for MK8 on Wii U. This is same ol moneygrab Nintendo fan manipulation.
