The Nintendo community was enraged/baffled by Nintendo's stance on chatting in Mario Kart Wii. Instead of an open text chat, preset text bubbles are the standard way of communication. Why is Nintendo even bothering with text bubbles in the first place? Who would have guessed that the DS would lead the way in online communication for Nintendo? GoNintendo discusses the topic, in detail.
For a lot of people, Mario Kart Wii was their introduction to the franchise, and what a terrific introduction they had.
Major 2023 game anniversaries include The World Ends With You, Mario Kart Wii, and The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, among many others
Nintendo has provided a sales update on Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, and it's confirmed that the game has now outsold Mario Kart Wii.
Always remember Polygon's take on MK 8 and how it would end up being worse selling entry in franchise history. Oof. MK 8 deluxe is going to have one hell of a holiday. You know that Switch bundle is coming back.
Baffles me that they haven't made any new dlc for this, and yet they focus on the mobile game smh
I can only imagine that the Mario Kart devs have been hard at work on the follow-up to 8, hence why it got no dlc.
We can only assume that they'll show something next year if they are working on the next game. With the way Ninty has been announcing games close to their release they don't leave room for any leaked info
Its not like its the same developer. The one working on the mobile game isnt even a Nintendo developer
Wii is the people's console, and people are tired of talking. People are tired of texting. Hell, people the world over want preset text bubbles -- I know I do. I really wish WarHawk, Motorstorm and COD4 would've gone this route, and I know that the fans of Gears, UT3 and Halo wish that Epic and Bungie would've considered preset text bubbles first -- those games don't stand a chance next to Nintendo's plan. One day all of the real gamers will wake up and understand that Wii is the future. The Wii is pure unadultarated next-gen gaming, period.
silly Nintendo! When are you going to let us speak! Guy's I'm pretty sure Nintendo is never going to get the picture until Japan shows it to them...so quit your baby crying...nothing can stop the massive underdeveloped yet most ridden Train known as Nintendo. It doesn't matter once Smash Bros. comes out everyone will forget this all happened :)
Nintendo sucks balls right now. They just want to sit on their asses and let the DS and Wii print money. Bunch of assholes. What's after Brawl? Seriously? 2008? Nintendo? Hello?
i really hate wii, i dont see it as a next-gen console.
NINTENDO IS GOING TO HAVE A EPIC FAIL!!!!!! if Nintendo thinks it can win with out online improvement they are so dead wrong. look at PS3 and XBOX360.
