3 shrooms, was hoping for 2 shrooms so every lap can't be the same but I guess that was just a double dash thing

Is the ghost upload option not just going to be an upload onto the Wii u Nintendo channel?

You can also make it go faster, make it go backwards, or rewind it to the start.

I've played the game today. I wrote a long post in Italian explaining what I think about it. I will translate it in English and post it here tomorrow.

Not sure if anyone else noticed, but you can see the skid marks from the previous lap's drifts on turns.
Might make turns more consistent for time trialing.

GameExplain posted a review of the game a couple days ago.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fsO8K7jUDRM&list=UUfAPTv1LgeEWevG8X_6PUOQ

He went into a lot of detail when explaining what he did and didn't like about the game.  Solid review.

Nobuo says: The MK8 Strategy Guide will be out May 29 with the game, I wrote it so please buy it kthx


https://twitter.com/nindori/status/468616509170782210
【新刊告知①】5月29日、ソフト同時発売で『マリオカート8』の完全攻略本が発売になります。今回もチャンプNOBUOの最速ラインを掲載した完全本です。詳細はニンドリドットコム
Nindori says: we’ll release guide blabla this time too the CHAMP Nobuo wrote it, learn all the pro lines!

http://www.nindori.com/books/kouryaku/comp_MK8.html
『マリオカートWii』世界大会優勝6回など、これまでシリーズの数々の大会を制してきたNOBUOによるテクニックを掲載した完全攻略本。本書では、マリオ+スタンダードカート+ノーマルタイヤ+スーパーカイトという、はじめから選択できるスタンダードカスタマイズで
、すべてのスタッフゴーストに勝てるライン取りを解説しています。ほかにも、上級者に向けたNOBUOの走行ラインやテクニックもあますことなく掲載。減速ドリフト、ドリフト待機、ジャンプカット、タッチアンドゴー…。あなたはこれらのテクニックを知っていますか?
 ライバルに勝つために、発売日からロケットスタートを決められる一冊となっています。
The 6 times MKW world champion etc. NOBUO wrote our Strategy Guide. In the guide, learn how to beat all staff ghosts using the standard setup: Mario + Standard Kart + Normal Tires + Super Glider. But we also have techniques for the more advanced players: Deceleration Drift (pressing B in a drift like MK7?), Drift Standby (AB spin???), Jumpcut (jump + shortcut idk), Touch and Go (lolwut)… etc. DO YOU KNOW THESE TECHNIQUES??? The magazine that will give you a startboost to beating your rivals! #YOLO #SWEG

translation is 1:1, nothing added nothing taken, i swer

the Prima Guide also looks interesting, they have drawn maps: http://www.primagames.com/media/files/eguide_assets/mario-kart-8-eguide/44_96...
online they only have an MKS strategy though http://www.primagames.com/games/mario-kart-8/guides/mario-kart-8-eguide/previ...

oh, apparently the staff ghost for MKS is 1′44″503, Nicola only got 1′46″ when he tested the game, so in theory Nobuo beats that with the standard setup

Shocked

Now I want this game ! Looks like the gameplay could be more interesting than it seems.

I wonder when NOBUO played the game for the first time, too.

why would the Prima Guide know Nobuo’s time? they’re clearly referencing the best staff ghost times, which are the times you’re supposed to be beating in TTs and what a strategy guide would be about

That's actually good news if you couldn't beat the staff ghost. Perhaps you missed something about the game's mechanics Tongue

I haven't seen any staff ghost with such a time, though...

Actually I don't remember seeing any staff ghosts displayed lol.

Here's a video of a staff ghost on Royal Raceway, seems pretty easy to beat:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QQRHbaZ10TQ

I doubt that 1:44 MKS is the regular staff ghost's time. Maybe there are "expert staff ghosts" like MKWii. Or maybe Nintendo provided Prima with a list of their testers' best times to include in their guide.

That's an intriguing turn of events if there are "true" staff ghosts that are actually quite strong.
After all, we could see, during the Direct, the director of the game getting 1:32 on MMM while the staff ghost we know of is at 1:45. And both MKWii and MK7 had two sets of staff ghosts. I may just be that since reviewers are bad at video games in general, we've never seen the second, better set.

NOBUO actually being the autor of the strategy book certainly explain why he was in a contract now.


Edit : The staff ghosts have always had "Nin*" in their names, since MKDS. However the person who alledgely raced this 1:44 time doesn't have the "Nin*" in it's name. So it is very likely this situation below instead :

are you talking about Allison? I don’t even understand if that time’s supposed to be his, or he’s just the guy writing the guide for Prima…

Regarding staff ghosts, I beat the Mount Wario staff ghost and it did not unlock a "harder" staff ghost. It could be that you need to beat -all- staff ghosts to unlock the harder ones, but I think it's likely there is only 1 set of staff ghosts in this game.

Simply beating the staff time might not be enough to unlock an expert ghost, though.  In previous games you had to beat the normal staff record by a certain amount depending on the track to unlock the faster ghost.

[22:05:48] Alex M: Hi folks,

I emailed Prima to ask if hidden stats would be included in the Official Game Guide and here is their reply: YES! Cheesy
[22:05:59 | Edited 22:06:06] Alex M: someone said on mkb

so there’ll be hidden stats like in MK7?

Some pictures from a Japanese guide:
http://kouryaku.dengeki.com/book/4-04-866750-0/4-04-866750-0.html

The guide shows info for a 1:45.746 MKS time.
Maybe someone who knows Japanese can find something interesting in these pictures. I think some of the images show hidden stats, but I'm not sure.

2 of the images may be showing hidden stats, but the image quality is so fucking terrible that you can’t read shit anyway

I’m not gonna bother with reading the readable as it would take a long time for probably no gain
