uh oh, arguements commence again ;)



you cant argue about facts MK DD had a higher budget than MK7, is that simple, DD has better sound and more complex grafix (MK7 barely uses shaders 1.1, the only advantage it couldve had), the animation and physics are more complex, which makes the handling feel more 'realistic' with things like weight and inertia being more present, rising the learning curve and thus turning out to be more rewarding for dedicated gamers. Tell that to the dolphin.

Also, since we're kinda on the subject of MK8, I hope the gamepad will act like the 3DS's second screen, as the extra screen was a huge assest in the handheld MKs. Actually made avoiding Blue Shells a real possibility. Unfortunately, I have to doubt this also since I believe the Wii U only supports one gamepad, so that wouldn't be fair to the other players. Come to think of it, what purpose would gamepad serve in this game? I could also ask the same of SSB. Perhaps they wont support it at all, though I find that hard to believe since it's the Wii U's main thing, but then again SSBB didn't use motion controls despite them beings the Wii's thing. Hmm, so much to think about here. :O


They said they are going to use the GamePad controller for more then just displaying eagle view like shown Mario Kart DS & 7.

Plus Nintendo also said that Wii U games will do 2 GamePad controllers when only displaying 2D sprites on the bottom screen, since 2D sprites don't look nay better in 1080p then they do in 720p, so it wouldn't make a difference anyways.

So it seems that there will be 2 GamePad controllers to use in Mario Kart U.

Plus with a firmware update they can make it do 4 different 1080p images someday......they are increasing loading times of the game disc dramatically with the Summer update as well as the previous spring update.



Ah, then I'll be very interested in seeing what they do with it. Also, two gamepads still isn't enough for the maximum of four players, though I suppose you can just use the gamepads only when you have 2 or less players. Did Nintendo say whether we'd ever be able to use 4 gamepads or not?

I'll be upgrading this thread soon, give it a nice touch!



Screamapillar on 25 May 2013

I'm looking forward to a Wii U Direct filled with Mario, Kart, Smash, Zelda, and Retro Studios. Anything else would just be sensory overload at that point. Almost would be too much of a good thing.

I still say a nice little gift to fans during E3 would be the release of some N64 games for Wii U Virtual Console.

Give us Ocarina of Time, Mario 64, and maybe DK 64 or something like that. That would be so awesome.



The Screamapillar is easily identified by its constant screaming—it even screams in its sleep. The Screamapillar is the favorite food of everything, is sexually attracted to fire, and needs constant reassurance or it will die.

Well Nintendo did confirm that on pre-install firmware the Wii U plays 3D Ready games and can use 2 GamePad controllers. And later on someone from Nintendo went into detail about the 2 GamePad controllers saying that it will be use for games that only display 2D sprites on the bottom screens.

And Nintendo has said repeatedly that in Mario Kart U they want to do more with the GamePad controller then just displaying a map only, like DS & 7 did.

About 4 GamePads with a firmware update, well I figured with how much they have increase loading time speed for game disc that they can clearly do the same for the other CPU functionalities. Plus the CPU is 3 to 4 cores and underclock around 1.25 GHz a core from 3GHz or so a core on pre-install firmware. And Nintendo has included firmware updates on 1st party retail games with the 3DS, so why not with Wii U retail games coming with their own firmware update for such specific functionality.

lol why are you repeating yourself? I only asked if Nintendo themselves said they plan on supporting 4 gamepads, and it looks like the answer to that be a no. :P
