It was one if the reasons I bought a Wii U and this was the only game I wanted from this Nintendo direct

This game looks fantastic. I am really impressed.

Should be great. I'm a tad disappointed it won't be out this year though.

I already have a WiiU. Now I patiently wait for this to release.

It looks utterly wonderful.

I am stunned... this looks awesome!

I'm buying the Wii U without the Mario Kart series.

However, I have no interest in Mario Kart. In my opinion it's one of the worst racing franchises in the history of gaming. You get penalized for doing well. Obviously the reason they do this is to make it fair to people who aren't very good at games, or kids and stuff, but racing games are competitive. When you are required to sandbag to guarantee a first place victory, then the game is broken. In the case of Mario Kart DS, disregard sandbagging, because you can snake the whole way and overlap people, something which is required almost every match if you want to come in first because there's always atleast one other person who does it.

I think the only two Mario Kart games where you don't get penalized for doing well is the original and Mario Kart 64, or you atleast get penalized less.

It definitely has me sayin'... "sweeeet!" I'll be at Best Buy checkin it out

best looking game on Wii U aside from X

I like that they didn't just throw MK7 in HD, but actually expanded on the gameplay. Hopefully it'll still be accessible to casual players.
