Mario Kart Wii-concerned but satisfied n ...

to be honest i was a bit worried that nintendo were going to drop the ball on this one because of bikes, graphics etc, and bumping the release date to April seemed like it was a rushed project but it actually is very good, Gameplay,Items,New features,(being realeased in UK before USA ;) ) so i saw ONM review and it is really better that expected, some people may say 'but the graphics are bad' well i say I'd rather play a superb game with crappy graphics than a crappy game with superb graphics

I think the graphics look nice...Seems to be a great game though.Mario Kart Wii-concerned but satisfied n ...
What fools think about a game graphics is that only HD or photorealism means it looks good. But the truth is, when a game looks exactly the way it means to, then it is a great looking game. Example: Okami, Windwaker, Jak 2 %26 3, Zack %26 Wiki, Super paper mario, dragon quest 8, etc. Photorealism can look great but it isn't the end all and be all. So pretty much mario Kart wii looks great because it looks just the way it means to look.
ty Remblade finally common sense the reason Zack %26Wiki,Mario Kart, LOZ:PH etc look cartoony are because they are SUPPOSED to look like that

can't wait! i'm sure it will be great
[QUOTE=''ZeldaMaster1991'']can't wait! i'm sure it will be great[/QUOTE] I know right? I'm not worried about the game. And besides, channel fans, it has its own channel to keep up with mario kart tournaments and such aka, the mario kart channel
The only thing that bothers me is every character looks really glossy for some reason.

However that does not necessarily mean that it looks so great to the consumers
Im glad some ppl understand this lol
I've never cared much about graphics, as long as its not a 2D game. Those annoy me.
I'm still not convinced. From what I've heared, the tilt controls stink, the new powerslide system just takes all strategy away, and graphically its a step below double dash, which just isnt acceptable
yeah, i know for sure that im not going to use the wheel that nintendo is giving out. heard they took the snake or whatever out of the game(where you move the control stick left from right when drifting so you'll get an extra boost), and replace it with just holding down the ''B'' button longer. as for the graphic, it's mario kart! it's not suppose to blow your mind people, and being below double dash? i doubt that. the game is going to be great.
lol i'd be fine playing it with mario kart ds's graphics...
I think this game looks great, except for the overused and abused bloom effect.
I really dont find the graphics bad at all :S
[QUOTE=''yeahyeahbigN'']yeah, i know for sure that im not going to use the wheel that nintendo is giving out. [/QUOTE]neither will I, but they shouldn't be using tilty control at all. it was ok with the launch titles, but now the gimmik is over, and we need decent controls. Leave the motion control to where it can be used best, like RE4 or Zack %26 Wiki. If PS3 racers have told us anthing, its that nothing can beat good old analogue for racers. They give you the tilt option, but most people turn it off and use the analogue sticks. Heres what they should have done. Use Wiimote %26 Nunchuck, Nunchuck analogue stick for steering. Wiimote can be used for cool stuff like aiming shells. Stop the gimmik controls, Nintendo![QUOTE=''yeahyeahbigN'']I heard they took the snake or whatever out of the game(where you move the control stick left from right when drifting so you'll get an extra boost), and replace it with just holding down the ''B'' button longer.[/QUOTE]
Thats true. I know a lot of people complained about snaking, saying it ruined the online experience for people who can't do it, but heres another idea, free of charge. How about when you set up an online game, you can turn snaking on or off. That way, people who know the tactic can use it, but people who don't use it won't keep getting their asses beat by the experts.

I think it is a step below double dash. The environments all look very bland. This could be just because I've only seen it through online videos, so I really should leave that opinion until I see it for real.While I'm ranting: Bikes, stupid. It's Mario Kart, not Mario Bike. Tricks, stupid. If you're going to put more strategy in it, at least make it something thats a challenge to do, so you get the reward for being good at the game. I guess its all because Nintendo want it to be easier for casual players, but if they keep up that idea then they should just have a 'Win' button on the Wii2.
i think the game looks pretty good, it has a nice polish to it, not as nice as SMG, but at least it doesn't have slow downs which i would rather have, then a pretty game with slow down and frame rate issues
[QUOTE=''gojays'']I really dont find the graphics bad at all :S[/QUOTE]I agree. I think this game will be great although I dont think im gonna like that steering wheel nintendo came up with
