Amazing that some cute gifs can cause some people to go from no interest to instantly wanting to buy a console and a game. Are your minds that malleable? Lol.

The game is a blast, though. I've never had fun with a Mario Kart like this. The gameplay itself seems the most polished out of the series.

I already had a lot of interest in the game and the console and saw some gameplay and loved it. I would already own a Wii U in preparation for this game had I not had major bills coming up. But these GIFs really show off how fun the game is. Its great advertisement. I went out and bought Sleeping Dogs from about 30 minutes of gameplay I saw on YouTube.
 
Shouldn't Luigi blow up together with Mario? Has this been photoshopped....

Because Luigi had a red shell that triggered the bomb, it blocked the explosion (somehow) and prevented luigi from taking damage. Think of it like a trailing banana blocking a red shell that someone throws at you, only with a more impressive resulting GIF.

Okay, I just picked Luigi to race in the Special Cup at 100cc.

ON BOWSER'S CASTLE, AS LAKITU CAME AROUND TO START THE RACE, HE STARED THROUGH THE CAMERA STRAIGHT AT ME. I RECIEVED A FULL BLAST OF DEATH STARE.

It spoke to me. He said, "If you make me fuck up, I'm coming for you."

I came in first, but I was terrified for my life all the same. I think he's gaining strength...
 
Trying to think of the best way to tell people about the glory of Mario Kart 8.

Somethings I came up with:

Mario Kart 8: "U are never safe."

Mario Kart 8: "Luigi said knock U out."

Personally, I would love to see the last two as some sort of ad..

The online is a lot of fun, especially with KartGAF. I've posted a ton of highlight reels to YouTube.

But yeah, connection errors have been popping up.

We figured out the connection error issue in a friends room, if one person has bad connection everybody is kicked, one guy we were playing with said his connection was spotty every time he joined we all go kicked

wait, when I upload something from MKTV can I control where the slowdowns occur? Or do I have to manually record it?

Missed him by that much lol.

I never want to get caught in a dark alley with Luigi.
 
God damnit why are these silly gifs making me want to buy a wii u? I had almost no interest in picking one up and now I feel like I have to have it.

This really is the gift that keeps on giving. I'm laughing so hard at the Luigi's Madness video and the "Hello...is it me.." videos, too. This is probably the best thing to happen to Nintendo since Wii Sports.
Maybe that's hyperbole. But seriously. MKTV has ended up being a very genius idea

If only the Mario Kart team would've known what they unleashed to the world in that fateful meeting where they approved to animate the characters to stare at each other.

Best decision ever.

Somebody needs to make a PSA video about distracted driving. Keep those eyes on the road!
