| archbrix said: Still though, I was expecting the first reveal of MK9 to show a bigger jump with nice lighting, lots of effects, a bunch of animation from the characters, a much improved poly count in the levels... and it may still have that, but this just wasn't the best first impression Nintendo could have made for it. But I do like the potential for 24 racers at once. |
I wasn't expecting much more than what we saw.
I don't remember if I felt a significant difference between how Mario Kart Wii looked compared to 8 off the top of my head, aside from the hover theme. But there's no visible gimick here yet. Just regular racing. So maybe that's part of why it doesn't feel like it stands out?
| The Fury said: Yes, that does indeed appear to be the Nintendo Switch 2. EDIT: Adding, I hope there is more than just, it's Switch but bigger and more powerful. For both Nintendo and Sony's credit, each gen they've tried to add more than just "here's more power" and yes, even Sony has before anyone says anything (game recording/streaming last gen, dualsense this gen). Nintendo has their thing which is usually innovative ways to play after all. |
On that note, I can't imagine not having the recording feature any more. It's so useful in order to save fun and memorable moments you have playing with friends for example.
