Mario Kart 8

I got so excited when the Koopalings were playable for this game! Some of them got more personality traits and some of them got even cuter such as Larry and Lemmy! I didn't expect Lemmy so suddenly sound much more high-pitched and squeakier! This game made me love Lemmy! Paper Jam, and Bowser Jr's Journey were icing on the cake!

Awesome Tracks: Check Awesome Music: Check Awesome Retro Tracks: Check Awesome Visuals: Check Awesome Character Roster: Kind of Awesome DLC Packs: Check Awesome Online and Local Multiplayer: Check This could have been 10/10, apart from Balloon Battle being the worst in the series: Check Coins being items: Check PINK GOLD FRICKIN PEACH!:Check Without these things, Mario Kart 8 would have been a 10/10 Still it's the best Mario Kart Game so far.

This game seems a lot better than Mario Kart 7, with more characters, anti-gravity racing, and you even get to have 12 players instead of 8 players. I can clearly see why this game has a 9.3/10 while Mario Kart 7 has a 7.7/10. I'm pretty sure this game might get a full 10/10 one day. Same thing goes for Kirby Triple Deluxe, which got a 9.4/10, Tomodachi Life which got a 9.2/10, Bravely Default, which got a 9.1/10, Fire Emblem Awakening, which got a 9.2/10, Yoshi's New Island, which also got a 9.2/10, and Both Pokémon X, which got an 8.8/10 and Y which got an 8.6/10. It used to be the highest rated game I've played until it was surpassed by Kirby Triple Deluxe.

Although the Wii U was a commercial failure, I'm still glad I purchased it to play this game. The online modes were incredibly addicting and fun, even if the battle-mode was a little lacking and poorly setup.

I miss playing this one already!

Prior to, I played the hell out of Wii Mario Kart. By this time I guess I was video game fatigued and like most gamers I was desperate to keep my gaming interest alive. However, for me, I can't be brainwashed into playing games, especially Nintendo games as an adult.

MK8 was a step-up from Wii MK. Even though, I guess due to nostalgia, I prefer to play Wii MK. MK8 had the better graphics, gameplay and new add-ons and courses were spectacular.

I'm not a gamer-person who will lie. I'll admit I struggled on MK8 probably because the energy I once had for games was loss. Then I basically stopped playing, gave away my Wii U.

Overall a beautiful game in some way Wii MK is better but MK8 has the better features, I hope that makes sense.
