The Mario Kart 8 Friends List Thread!

[QUOTE=Rev]Is there any way to use the Pro Controller and get the stats of kart placement onto the main screen like previous Mario Kart titles? I hate that you have to use the gamepad or not have an option to see it.[/QUOTE]

I don't think so, Rev :/

You can use the Gamepad's stand to prop up the controller, however, making it easy to view during gameplay. It kind of depends on whether or not you have a coffee table or something to set it on, though. I personally play my Wii U at a writing table, so I can have the Gamepad set up right in front of my face next to the monitor.

I dont think you can put the map on the screen, which is dumb. Friend me people! Then lets try to organize times to play. Im gone for the next few days but im usually free weekends and nights. We could get a good tournament going

I'll check the schedule, but yeah, I'll try to be there for sure.  I'll have a look when I get home.  [smile]

I'm not sure how team names work, but can we suggest different ones every week?  I'd suggest SNES vs Genesis sometime.  We could honestly sign up based on preference.  The SNES players would have more MK experience, but the Genesis ones would have more experience playing games that run smoothly!  ZING!  [tongue]

I went to join for this and check out the rules and I noticed it is a team game, can someone explain how this works as I have not played team Kart
I am not very good but I look forward to playing tomorrow night.

I'm showing this as 22:30 - 2:00, which sounds about right for my timezone. I assume you set it for like 9:00 Eastern Time or something and the system gave me my Newfoundland time? If it's 22:30 Eastern I'm in trouble. [smile]

I don't know if anyone else on here has become aware of the "Luigi Death Stare" meme (I assume everyone has given where we are), but if not, it'll be a funny thing to keep your eye out for in races:
