I guess I also have MK7 but just never really found the time to get into it at all, I think I maybe did one GP and just was playing some other games at the time can't recall, but MKWii was the last one that I sank 20+ hours into.

People saying it was bad... but I dunno, I really enjoyed the heck out of it, not the motion controls of course, those could suck my dick :D Gamecube pad was all you needed to make that great.

In terms of needing space to download the game, it's just 6.8GB of the system storage, considering I have Zelda in the cart port and now this on the internal memory alongside Fast RMX I still have around 17GB free with a micro SD only inserted to get around the hard limit of 1000 screen shots to the system memory, (can have 10k on a sd card of any size, it's just a file number limit for the internal storage)

Also....

Wtf it's such a beautiful game :o I'm lost for words as to how great that looks, just playing it 720p/60 on handheld last night, but wow.

I got it but it took forever to download from the Nintendo eShop (sheesh).

Looks gorgeous in 1080p, really don't notice the lack of AA in 1080p sitting at normal living room distance.

Portable mode just feels *miles* better than Mario Kart 7 on 3DS. Like I've said, Switch is like flying first class, you never want to go back to coach after. 

Already got my digital version. Loading times are really short in comparision to WII U. Higher resolution is also great, way less aliasing. Less blurry and a really detailed image. I also notice the LOD changes way more, though. And some other stuff which was less noticeable.
Also, real fluid gameplay. That's the greatest thing of all. No more stutter.

1. MK: 8
2. MK: DS
3. MK: Wii
4. MK: Double Dash
5. MK: 7
6. MK: 64
7. MK: Super Circuit
8. Super Mario Kart

Sounds great, load times improvement is great because they were quite painfully slow on the original. Only thing really missing is 60fps in 3/4 player.

Amazon is telling me the delivery date is now Wednesday. I am not amused. Might cancel and hit up GameStop today.

I still think the loading times are bit too long, lol. I miss the days of big fat carts and zero loading.

Just waiting for Amazon to deliver mah game.

The Shine Thief mode in Battle mode is pretty fun. Not quite Splatoon fun, but fun.

It's finally here!

We have a launch party planned tonight. It was a real ride, though! Amazon botched my order of grey Joy-Cons but to make up for it they sent me *two* copies of the game for some reason, so we had a short mass panic on WhatsApp with people volunteering to buy the extra pair of Joy-Con lol. Thanks to my amazing girlfriend, who risked her life to secure a neon colored pair (slight exaggeration for story-telling purposes) we will be able to play Mario Kart in style tonight. Now I just hope none of us will get hit by a meteorite or something.
