  1. Mario Kart is dominating!!!

    -No one ever

    Now I bet people are going to say how UK has bad taste, they’re irrelevant, Japan is more awesome, and all that bullshit.

    1. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

      You could atleast have warned people that there would be spoilers…

      But yes, death to UK and so on…

                1. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

                  Another imbecile ape that doesn’t know the meaning of the word racism or it’s implementation…

                    1. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

                      An answer this primitive indigenous fauna of this planet will never learn…

    2. Sorry, MK8 has been in the top 10 for how long now? And when it jumps into the top 5 or 3 spot yet again you’ll suddenly lose your voice again?

      You are really thick.

    3. Valve Admiral GLaDOS

      “No one ever”
      You tell me to check my spelling? At least I bother correct myself.

      “Now I bet people are going to say how UK has bad taste, they’re irrelevant, Japan is more awesome, and all that bullshit.”
      Just like you when some speaks truth about SM3DW being amazing compared to Knack and you attempt to make you opinion as fact.
      Or when I exposed your console as an underpowered PC that’s only worth it for third-party, and the somewhat decent exclusives, but still not much to warrant a purchase.
      Or when people liked the game Shovel Knight, you indirectly trashed talked them.
      That’s a quite the record of hypocrisy you have.

    4. Your dumbass, like Sasori, thought MK8 would slip past 10 everywhere in in a matter of weeks. Its been in the market for 2 months and still holding on above the top ten spot everywhere. Nice try but MK8 ain’t going anywhere sucker. ;)

        1. Sometimes it’s best to state the obvious ;)

          Either way, Mario Kart 8 is consistently staying high in the rankings so it doesn’t matter if it sells less than MK Wii or the others. It still did increase the Wii U’s selling base and it will stay in the rankings for a very long time. Smash Bros will likely give it a boost as well. It will end up selling more than Watch Dogs (Individually of course) by the end anyway. I’m a little worried since I’ve heard that MK8 is lacking in content, but I’m still going to snag it soon

    1. Probably a discount as you can buy those games for fairly cheap in a second hand shop (though HG/SS are fucking expensive) besides, X and Y have probably sold to most of the people interested in the games, whereas 5th Gen didn’t get as much attention.

      1. I tried the demo. Didn’t click to me. Seems more restrictive on open world exploration than Animal Crossing and even Disney Magical World.

          1. I thought he was pretty nice about how he worded it. I pretty much agree. Too restrictive. But I’m glad people are having fun with it! Maybe you should take your ” =/= ” up to the guy who called it “absolute shit.”

    1. They can keep counting on that BS theory because they wish for Nintendo to fail while ignoring that they’re supporting the other side for the exact reasons they claim to hate Nintendo for because its not gonna happen. Bunch of dumb blind bastards. XD

    1. It’s actually really fun, challenging, and rewarding.

      I applaud Minecraft for making such a game.

    2. Tried it. Its not even as supposedly popular as everyone (who’s braindead) thinks. Its manly about and for customization. Nothing more so I don’t understand how this is game is even popular to begin with.

  2. Gay Commander The Gay Ape should me sticking another mans penis up is swedish ass crack at the sight of these news

      1. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

        I find it funny how the majority of the human apes thinks that homosexuals only receives it in the rectum…

        Who’s doing the thrusting then?…

        Idiots exposed…

            1. Please, I know all about that stuff. I know more than I should actually. That just caught me off guard.

        1. its soo obvious. That’s cus your so strong and sexy😚 and bulky in all the right places wink wink. ^_^ who wouldn’t fall inlove with u?💋 oh commander take me right here! 😍 who cares if kids are present. it just turns me on more.❤ cmon u be commander and ill be rear admiral mhmm🚽❤

  3. Maybe now Nintendo will realize that when they launch their next console make sure Mario Kart is a launch title and not appear 18 months later!!

        1. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

          2 players in one kart or you control both of them if you prefer, all characters have a “signature” item, no coins, CPU is fun to race, specially vs Bowser or Petey, action packed madness aswell as the tracks…

          It’s just the perfect MK in my eyes…

            1. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

              I have you all within my grasp though…

              *wink*

              And the character roster is the best…

              Take MKDD roster and just add the Koopalings and the perfect roster is created, and Drybones too of course…

              1. Damn straight!! GreattbRooster, along with everything else you said. But I’m sure it was easier to port MK7 over to the WiiU in HD. And Dry Bones and Dry Bowser are to scary for little kids… So babies are much safer, and cute, and full of family fun! ):<

                1. You know, I really hate it when people say “kiddy”, “for kids” or “family fun” just to say something about Nintendo…I know you speak truth but COME THE FUCK ON MAN, can’t ya leave it out for once?

                  1. As much as I want to agree, Nintendo hasn’t really done anything to make themselves appeal to the more hardcore audience. I know it doesn’t really matter, but I don’t think Nintendo has ever made an M rated game. The farthest I’ve ever seen them go is T. And even then, they still use their cartoonish characters. Nintendo isn’t “kiddy” they just look like they are with the lack of mature titles. Yes, there are M games published by Nintendo, but that’s from other companies and Nintendo only helped with it. And not to mention, many people mainly recommend getting children Nintendo systems rather than the other 2 because they appeal more to families and kids the most. M games seem as if they are very rare on Nintendo systems. Which is why people label them as a “kiddy company”.

                    1. And they went on a “witch hunt” scale campaign to pretty much strip away anything that could allow mature gamers and adults communicate, share experiences with… We ARE being treated like kids now… Unlike the old days where they allowed for some leeway for adult gamers.

                  2. I hate it also. Nintendo consoles are most certainly not just for kids. ;)

                    But they Replaced all my favorite characters with BABIES G.Damnit!! D:

                    1. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

                      I’m getting really tired of hearing and reading the Words “Kiddy” ad “Mature”…

                      A cartoon style does NOT make something kiddy just because it’s not gorefest or has pathetic cheap sexual content…

                      And many of these games hat people label as “Mature” often are more childlike than Mario games becase of their fable narrating garbag and the overexposure of trying to make itself to be taken seriously but only comes off silly…

        2. Double Dash is gold, if it wasn’t so expensive I would recommend you to find a copy to play on your Wii (you would need a GC controller) The best parts are the character specific items and the Shine Sprite battle mode. Playing with 2 of your favorite characters are awesome too. Think, Rosalina and baby Rosalina tag team. 😁

          1. worst part to me was the baby circuit. it was the shortest track (I think) ever. I don’t mean to sound hateful, but it gets boring after awhile, specially since it has no online. I did like it when it 1st came out, and I still like the concept. I think it’s too complicated though to ever bring back, especially take into online. :L

        3. The dual-character karts is what everyone loved about Mario Kart DD. It adds more fun chaos into the mix but also creates an imbalance. But they’re in favor of two man karts instead of one.

        4. Easily the best Mario Kart of all time! The tracks were all great and the item balancing was pretty good. No items that make you wince (Like the coins) and mastering the courses can really make a difference. I play it with my family and friends Every day. (Not every day with friends of course) It’s easily the most played game in my household

      1. Mario kart 9, with anti gravity, two player in one kart, all battle modes back like they used to buy l be and a track editor.

        Best Mario kart ever!

  4. They should bring back DD’s dual player karts as a separate mode (Co-op) from single kart racing, amp the item balance for one item as offensive and the other for defense along with implementing the Fusion Kart idea from Arcade GP and yes, fix the Battle Mode because MK8’s is just sad.

  5. All these people buying Mario Kart 8, and not many above 18. I don’t accept friends under that because I’m 35 and want to avoid looking like a pedo. And NO ONE on my friends list to race! I admit, I’m not all “hardcore Mario Kart” and all that, but I’d like to enjoy SOME fun!

    … oh, and MINECRAFT WII U!!! NOW!!!

    1. I’m 24 and don’t care about all of that “Pedo” BS . As long as I don’t do or say anything stupid to kids online, I’m safe and welcome to compete them. If however they’re like that, I just block em. Simple.

    2. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

      Do you have any evidence to support your claim or are you just one of them that believes only children buys Nintendo products?…

      1. My “evidence” comes from searching Miiverse for more “adult” gamers like me. And keep in mind, I’m typing this on my GamePad, so I know FOR A FACT that The Glorious Nintendo Empire of Tomorrow is purchased by people from ALL walks of life. After all, didn’t I admit to being 35? Just having a hard time finding folks 18+, that’s all. :)

        1. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

          “Glorious Nintendo Empire of Tomorrow”, yes, I love the sound of that…

          Well I’m about 0.7 cycles younger than you so if you want you can add me, N-Commander and we’ll play some when I get my Wii U back from repairs…

          Sometimes I wonder if I’ll ever get it back…

          1. Is the Gamepad the only controller you have? I thought you got a Mario Wii Remote with the bundle.

            1. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

              No, that’s what I thought but I guess that only applies to Japan or the US…

              I have 2 Wiimotes though but no way I’m going to stay with a defective Gamepad…

                    1. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

                      I’m one third PC “Master Race”…

                      That’s why the Admiral is my ally…

        2. You gotta take into consideration that adults have jobs, family, etc, to take care of. They barely got time on their hands. Of course kids would be more active. They’ve got nothing else to do. Lol. Look at me for example. I’m a teen and I play games all day. That’s gonna change drastically when I get a job though.

          1. While true enough, I’m a stay-at-home dad of 2 special needs children under 7. I don’t play ALL DAY, but I’d love to play online against someone every once in a while.

            And Commander, I feel your pain. My 3DS XL has been inoperable since last June, and I am currently lacking the funds to getbit fixed. I’d just get a new one, but it had my ambassador games on it, and I’ll be DAMNED if I’ll lose those!

            1. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

              Well when I get mine back we’ll play MK8 and other games we might have incommon later someday…

              I only had the damn week for 2 weeks…

              1. I’m almost willing to bet that it’s broken because you did something dumb and stupid like flinging it into a wall for losing in a fucking video game, because let’s be frank, you are just that unintelligent.

                1. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

                  I’ve never heard a more retarded comment in my existence on this site and that includes the abomination nostalgiaww’s comments…

                  And you’re probably talking about your own personal experiences you primitive ape…

                2. Valve Admiral GLaDOS

                  You must be talking about yourself, because no one who is a reasonable individual is that stupid to do something like that. So let’s be frank, you are a moron.

                3. That can be pretty offensive you know. You shouldn’t make hasty judgement calls like that. We both know that the Nintendo Commander wouldn’t make such a mistake. I wouldn’t and 95% of Wii U owners wouldn’t either. We all learned not to do that from the Wii….

                4. Is his role playing such an insult to you that you have to be immature & insult him? You people insulting him & getting upset are not better than him, no matter how much you think you are. If anything, bashing him in return just goes to show how immature you guys are. This is a video game website. Try to have, oh I don’t know, fun!

              1. True, but the system has to WORK in order to transfer it without specialized equipment that only Nintendo customer service has. What sucks MORE is that I’m planning to use my XL as my main camera for my Youtube channel. It’d sure beat the cellphone camera I’m limited by right now.

  6. Watch_Dogs (PS4) sure is stubborn. Sadly, the more the PS4 version sales, the less likely the Wii U version will do good. And the less the Wii U version does, the less I’ll give a damn about Ubisoft staying on the console. Oh well. I can’t help but think most of Ubisoft doesn’t really give a damn about staying on the console, either, with their obvious preference for Sony & Microsoft consoles. In fact, they only supported the Wii with exclusives because of the high install base which they made obvious with the fact they don’t want to support the Wii U til it gets a big install base.. Just goes to show they care more for the money than the actual fanbase.
