Re: Mario Kart 8 Q/A
Huh, Ice Ice has way more short cuts than i thought! Also, I think for time trials it might be beneficial to switch sides and specific points, but I don't see it making a big difference in actual race besides as you said, avoiding items.

I think the Green track seems shorter, but it probably is exactly the same.

Re: Mario Kart 8 Q/A
Just posting it in the Q/A, but could have added it to the tourney thread. If you go through your Mii characters but choose a standard character, the last selected Mii will appear in the waiting room and inrace leaderboard. The main person/Mii will get the tourney points though.
Kreegs and I noticed this last week, when E.T. joined Kreegs in the waiting room E.T. was one of the Miis I made on the Wii from an example on the internet and I transferred those Miis to my Wii U.

Thanks for clearing this up! I was very confused by this last week!MerlinDrazziw wrote:Just posting it in the Q/A, but could have added it to the tourney thread.

Re: Mario Kart 8 Q/A
So does the DLC come with all the new karts unlocked? I have all 4 now, but I swear at first I only had two of them which makes me think they're randomly unlocked without notifying you. Most likely scenario is that I didn't notice them all being unlocked in the beginning though.

Pretty sure they're all unlocked. I just booted up last night and they all seemed to be there.The Shoemaker wrote:So does the DLC come with all the new karts unlocked?

Re: Mario Kart 8 Q/A
So, not every Amiibo in wave 1 is supported in Mario Kart 8 apparently, I find that a little odd. I thought they had said that every Amiibo would have Mario kart support, why skip the initial ones?
EDIT: Nevermind, just rewatched that section of the last Nintendo direct, it must have been for Hyrule Warriors they said all amiibos were compatible. Kind of disappointing, I hope they update later waves into the game like Mega Man.

Re: Mario Kart 8 Q/A
I've been focusing on other stuff and ignoring my Wii U and it sounds like I've come back just in time for new DLC for MK8 WOOP.Kong Wen wrote:HOLY SHIT!!! This is the best Mario Kart news yet! The first DLC pack will contain a randomized ExciteBike arena! The ramps and speed boosts change location each time you play (except in time trial mode), which means the races will be pretty crazy. And the arena just looks great! It has classic ExciteBike appeal.
I'll check out the tracks tomorrow. Do we still do weekly races?
