Judging by the Rosalina trailer, I'm guessing that we're getting a different version of Rainbow Road on Wii U. Nice touch.

 

[Raysoul]

nvm. image already rehosted.

 

[Mushroomer25]

Cooool. MK7 Rainbow Road is one of the overall best.

 

[ShadowElliot]

We'll probably get a deadlier version of Rainbow Road from Mario Kart 8 in the Wii U version.

Cooool. MK7 Rainbow Road is one of the overall best.

Agreed!

Want to hear the theme music now

It seems fitting after playing the other night and racing on Rainbow Road for 3 straight races. And I agree, this version of Rainbow Road is awesome.

The truly definitive version of the song.

 

[DICKS AHOY]

Oh cool, it's my favorite version of Rainbow Road too, though I still dig MK64's giant neon heads. Guess it vaguely counts as Rosalina themed?

 

[Azure J]

Awesome. It better have the superior-est version of the Rainbow Road theme.

 

[TheOGB]

It's the road where you go to get smashed?

 

[Doctor Decimate]

oh man, if they remix the theme for this version of Rainbow Road it'll be glorious

 

[Mauricio_Magus]

Fuck yeah, I've always wondered why Rainbow Road didn't have a stage in Smash.

If only Smash 4 supports custom music...

 

[L~A]

I guess we'll get a track from Mario Kart 8 in the Wii U version of the game. Probably the Rainbow Road, if the ND trailer is anything to go by.

 

[BGBW]

Rather have a unique location for the Wii U version than another Rainbow Road. Mario Kart has developed its own universe.

 

[SuperSah]

Looks fantastic.

I need to hear his Miiverse comment, which happens to be two hours late...

Pic of the day. Happy Holidays! Here's a new 3DS stage--Rainbow Road! It can't be explained in one picture, but it's going to be a cruise-type stage.

 

[Foshy]

So is this the new Final Destination? Looks like it from the screenshot, unless it's a morphing stage.

Edit: Nvm, just read the post above me.

 

[Salsa]

it is a road that you go

 

[Robin64]

I get a feeling that most of the stages this time are "Famous place you know as backdrop, some platforms floating in front of it where you fight". I hope I'm wrong and there's more variety than that, but I want to be on those stages, not just looking at them in the background.

AND YOU WILL KNOW, WHEN YOU GET THEEEERE!

cool stage!

 

[Pop-O-Matic]

I guess they needed a Mute City clone since F-Zero has probably been downgraded from a fully featured franchise to only having representation at the Assist Trophy level.

Awesome. It better have the superior-est version of the Rainbow Road theme.

C'mon, son.

EDIT: Sorry, missed a post above.

 

[PotionBleue]

Well they could have added a few polygons for the moon.

 

[elektrixx]

I will buy both on day one and like it.

 

[Azure Phoenix]

Well that's a shame, I'd rather they had picked Wii Rainbow Road. Hated everything about RR in MK7. Fingers crossed the Wii RR music is unlockable at least, I could listen to that all day.

 

[co1onel]

Well they could have added a few polygons for the moon.

This was my first thought too. Looks like a cool stage though.

How had I not seen this video until now?!

 

[IntelliHeath]

Well, I didn't expected new stage that soon. It look amazing!

 

[XANDER CAGE]

it is a road that you go

when you die

Sounds good already.

 

[Jeff Vader]

As long as we land on the moon part as part of the cruise i'll be ok with this.

 

[sixteen-bit]

3DS Smash looks great.

 

[ffdgh]

I like it tho the color seems slightly off compared to the actual game.

 

[sixteen-bit]

you probably missed last week's Direct.

 

[The Bankslammer]

Nice, guaranteed awesome music.

Don't really love the cruise-esque stages though. I know Skyloft is one, but I guess I'm okay with this because those two are the only ones so far and they're in different versions.

Soooo this just means that the F-Zero stage in the 3DS version will be a non-moving course, right~?

 

[SJS]

I... don't think this is surprising given the Rosalina trailer?

I was expecting this.

Good job.

This should be in WiiU karaoke or something
