to be quite honest Mario Kart has always made the same mistake across all platforms (Online). We are now in the 8th generation of consoles and we are still having online issues..WTF.

Is it hard for A developer who has been making games for decades to include a proper online system??? and the fact that this particular developer is from the same company that makes the console.

which means he has access to the online infrastructure.

I hope nintendo improves its online sooner rather than later so that we can enjoy a true 8th gen console not a new Wii

Apparently, many people are being fanboys and are denying the truth.

seriously how can i delete this thread? if its just causin pointles posts like the one fromu PadWatcher2 then I just wanna delete it and forget about ever having had the audacity to try to critizise Nintendo for the first time in my life.

 

We're not being fanboys.  This is just an annoying thread with no point but to whine and get other people to slap you a high five for your whining.  If you don't want the game, don't buy it.

Ok this crap needs to stop now.

This is why you weren't taken seriously.

MK8 is a bucking incredible looking game. One could argue it's the best game to come out for 8th gen so far.

This thing has been treated with the absolute most care down to the frinking smallest detail. We're talking about big things like anti gravity, mid sized thing like spin boosting, and tiny things like fluttering mustaches and booty staring.

The game is getting great reviews across the board, the only reason the reviews aren't pretty much perfects is because this game is being compared to the previous installments... all of which were also incredible games for their times.

Outside of MK8 Nintendo has been frinking great to us, especially in the last month or so. Smash bros. looks mind-blowing, with so many things people have been requesting for forever, from all walks of the game for the longest time being included. We're getting Bayonetta 2, X, a new Zelda, rumors of Metroid or Starfox, and judging by the way Miyamoto is talking eventually a Majora's Mask remake.

Pretty much everyone on this site loves their Wi U as a system, the only complaint most people can make is a lack of games, which still isn't saying much, since we have the most games (both great and in general) in this  gen so far.

 

Now here's you guys, complaining about character selection and online chat restrictions, and do you state it would have been nice to have these things, but oh well, maybe next time? No. You try to say that Nintendo doesn't listen, and that they need to do better? That you expect "much more". That's just straight up whining and nit-picking. There isn't even enough room for improvement to expect "much more". This isn't some essential feature that has been excluded, this isn't an "up yours" straight from Iwata, this is you complaining that, oh no, while you're having the time of your life playing an incredible game, you won't be able to look at the back of so and so's bike and head. Because you couldn't possibly play as the boatloads of other great characters. No that would just ruin the experience. Nintendo has killed the game and slapped in or face. Forget all the other things that are perfect and spot on about the game, I can't play as a Goomba and complain about it to strangers in chat.

 

I'm starting to really dislike gamers. I'm not sure which is more annoying, people constantly complaining that the companies aren't catering to them or people acting like we owe them something. It's all ridiculous. Gamers are jokes, and that's likely how I'll be treating them from now on.(as if I wasn't already)

Uh, yeah you are. A non fanboy probably wouldn't have thumbed up Wydra's post about how good ninty's been doing giving fans what they wanted.

yeah the cursing could be a problem but like I said the missong chat feature is something I could live with. its the rest of the online thats messed up like no txt messages, no inviting friends into public games etc

@ 3dude: yeah ok the skylanders game has an assumingly not earned score on wii u in metacritic but my point is that I expected mk to be the best wii u game so far and not a 89. and nintendo couldve easily achieved that by making a good, up to date online and good characters. like this its just an awesome game but not " perfect" as it couldve been. and for people like me who wanted the good online badly its just annoying and leaves me wondering WHY NINTENDO? WHY?

I think you may regretfully find in the future you are putting way too much emphasis and stock in numbers arbitrarily supplied by gamz girnoliz who often are bought out, bribed, or when they arent, are entirely too incompetent to figure out how the game they are reviewing works.

IGN gave Godhand a 3. Looooong after the review, from outrage of players who actually could play games, and youtube videos showing how to play the game properly came out, IGN realized their mistake, and God hand now has a solid place in their greatest games of all time list... Despite its still standing review score of 3. Unfortunately, ign was not alone, and the incompetent reviews of god hand, and the effect it had on sales, lead Capcom to shut down the Creativity LOVER studio, and ultimately led to a chain reaction of events: an exodus of all of capcoms talent, leading to things like the cancellation of mega man legends 3, and the generally pathetic clueless state capcom is in today.

That situation is once again mirrored today, once again with clover studios, now platinum games. The best game on the wii u, of the generation so far on any system, has a metacritic of 79, because a handful of incompetent reviewers couldnt figure out how to play the game.

Metacritic hasnt been what it was intended to be ever since large publishing houses caught onto it....

Like any other game, I wouldnt rely too much on reviews, I use them for media, like screenshots and videos, but they are often so full of misinformation I cant listen to what they have to sa, as it seems whether its true or not is a complete gamble. Especially on nintendo systems..

Wait a day or two on mk8. See what real people have to say, see if the online system is really as horrible as the monster in your imagination right now. Odds are it wont be that bad.

Just to clear up any misinformation from the erroneous ign review, in mk8, you can see all your freinds who are online, and you CAN join them at the push of an on screen button, send invites to them to join your lobby while they are in a public game, and you can recieve invites from others to join their lobbies, and yes, you actually CAN send messages. What you cant do is invite freinds to a public lobby, obviously to discourage organized bullying, and other methods of greifing public games. Check out game explains coverage of the online system to debunk ign's.... misinterpretations.

And heres hoping for some dlc racer packs. That would be pretty nice.

If I can't invite friends to a game or whatever the OP is talking about then yes, I will be annoyed.

 

Nintendo could always patch things like chat in lobbies and invites etc easily, they have patched Mario Karts before but that was mainly for game balancing and stuff.

 

 

just dont hold your breath

 

if I remember correctly (and I'm pretty sure I do, I saw this like 2 days ago) there's a screenshot of a menu with a "Invite Friends" or "Join Friends" option or something similar.

I wasn't acting like we owed them anything. I'm just saying complaining the way he's complaining is completely ridiculous when you put things in perspective. Which you just said yourself. Of course the game isn't perfect, yes a different roster and more online options, but when someone says that Nintendo never listens to us, I'm going to straight up call them out on that, which is exactly what I did. That doesn't make me a fanboy.

You're right. I'm just in one of those "everyone's the same" moods.

C'mon guys, nobody is saying MK8 will be terrible or that Nintendo themselves are completely terrible but to suggest that Nintendo are doing great and always listen to fans is ridiculous.

I'm not saying Nintendo should listen to fans all the time but when it comes to things like online features it wouldn't hurt them to listen to fans and look at what their competitors are doing.

I also think that complaining about MK8 roster is completely justified, it is just lazy. If this was made by any other company people on here would be slagging them to death.

Um... Actually the online 'problems' on here are fake misinformation spread by ign.

You CAN invite freinds to your lobby, receive invites from freinds and send messages to organize lobbies tournies etc... Ign got that all wrong.

You CANT invite freinds into public games, probably to discourage organized greifing.

As for the roster, the only thing i cant call it is lazy. Its very clear that each character had a ton of work put in them, from models to textures and animations...

Its just... Dumb. Its a dumb bad roster. Wheres my bones at? Roster dlc would be a brilliant move.

Ah game journalists at their finest.

But still, generally, nintendo are a bit behind when it comes to online features.

And by lazy i didn't mean that work wasn't put into them, i meant that very little thought was put into the choice of characters.

yeah they are on the right track with miiverse etc but they still got LOTS of room for improvement concerning online and social features.

Yep. And why do we need to post about it on here? Is it gonna magically make the roster better and make online up to par?

Good point. If Nintendo games have issues we should ignore them.


This statement is false. The previous statement is true.

At first im like, heh, nice sarcastic jab.

But then I got thinking, nintendos so... bizarrely random that might actually work....

'Nobodys complaining?'
'What? This silence is making me nervous'
'quick start changing things!'
'Replace the babiez!'

And thats how fawful became my light main.
