the concept of an Open World racing game doesn't make sense to me. it is entirely contradictory to what a racer is.

I say this as someone who never played the SNES Mario Kart until AFTER i played MK64.

I never understood how anyone could enjoy that hunking piece of shit, but MK64 is an all time masterpiece.

The SNES controls are finely tuned and perfect. A real game of skill. All the characters feel different.

The MK64 controls are so oafish and slow and everything's too easy. All the characters feel the same.

Just spent 5 hours playing it so far. Maps are significantly less creative than MK8 and it's much harder. Otherwise it's basically the same. Can't believe poors are paying $500 to play reheated Mario Kart. There isn't even any good single player games out for the system yet and Donkey Kong looks like a remake of the disastrous Mario Odyssey. Just get a Steam Deck jfc

IP reuse is devastating, every company is totally afraid of anything "new" so they have to rely on reusing the same IP for brand awareness for Mario, Star Wars, Marvel, it's all the same warmed over shit that relies on name recognition and nostalgia as the lowest common denominator in an effort to avoid both creativity and novelty costs along with minimizing the risks of "failure."

It’s not so much “fear” as the fact they’re guaranteed to lose money such as with everything Sony has tried lately with Concord and Marathon, plus Shitfield.

Xenoblade 3 was fine. It's incredibly addictive.

All they have to do not to lose money is to avoid stuffing their games with globohomo propaganda. It's not that hard.

I want to see him running to the walmart electronics department, huffing and puffing and arriving several minutes after the local "youths" and "teens," as they walk past him and snicker with Switch 2's in hand. As he wheezes at the checkout girl, dripping with sweat, she gives him a disgusted look and tells him that she just sold the last one (she didn't, there are more in the back).

Only 2 games I've ever played more than 20 hours on Switch were MK8 and Switch Sports (which is just Wii Sports)

If MK World isn't materially different from MK8 on multiplayer, there is literally no reason to upgrade

Edit: I guess I put in 80 hours on BOTW. But I got so bored of Tears of the Kingdom because it was basically the same game.

Same. Almost exclusively MK8 with friends. Tried TOTK and the framerate was so bad I couldn’t finish it. The only real benefit for me would be a higher res MK8 and higher fps TOTK. People are saying MKW is worse than MK8. Plus I like my oled version
