I'll buy a Wii U if it gets another $50 price cut and Bayonetta 2/X come out and review well.

Mariokart is what gaming is all about and this looks so beautiful. I'd be very surprised if this doesn't take wii u console sales up a notch and enable Nintendo to have a pretty respectable christmas in console sales.

I already have a wii u and will definitely be buying this game unless the final reviews are actually low. I really can't see that happening though. I shall buy shortly after launch when I see the first offer price or chance to use vouchers to get the price down. I'd be looking to pay somewhere between £25-30.

What's wrong with Mario Kart? It's the highest selling racing game of all time :o.

OT : I already own a WiiU , but MK8 is definitlely something I'll be picking up, not day one, but definitely soon after.

Buying a wii u? yes. Buying mario kart? probably not.

Zelda, metroid, fire emblem and X are my poisons... and sonic, to a certain extent.

I own one since release, but not for just MK8. I couldnt survive without Nintendo games! :P

I'm buying a Wii U for Mario kart 8. I skipped MK Wii. So I have a reason to get it.

Have fun enjoying nothing in life. ;)

It will came a better time for you my friend. Believe me this. For 1 Year  i have the same problem like you but today it have change everything.

Implying a) gaming is all in life, b) mario is the only game.

So, so wrong.

It's tempting me towards the console, yes. I don't want to miss out.
