It's a good game! Pikmin 3 is a good, thinky changeup after all that mindless, fun action.

Thwomp Ruins!

I'd say you're more of a Big Mac. He generally just goes along with things without getting all bent out of shape.

I dont have a premium account, and I shoot "gold" ammo with credits only. Totally possible. You just have to develop the skills to play a profitable game, and not fire off gold thoughtlessly (it's overkill for most enemies).

You did the sync button and all that?

But if I read this tip, then I'll have already read a tip, and if I don't read it, I won't know not to!

The drawback is that the kart in front of you just picked something up too, and is more likely to have an item for defense.

Seriously. This'll be the best source for all that stuff until the 12-year-olds start posting world-record-runs that nobody can hope to beat.

Easier said than done. It's hard to know a powerful build unless you're good at it, and you only get good at it by sucking first, so it's a bit of guesswork to determine a good build before a game's meta has developed. I'm hoping this one has better balance in the endgame so that more builds can compete online.

Unless you've made a mistake, and the alternative is worse (falling off a cliff).

It's a good-looking game. Maybe it can't graphic like the PS4, but that's damn pretty besides.

Having 2 items made defense in first place way too good. Also, it made for item spam. I suspect the drifting was changed to prevent snaking. There's no excuse for battle mode sucking this much. Underwater isn't quite the same as driving on land — the physics are floatier, and if you catch "air" you actually have…

I love that the red shells are "dumb" again. Hasn't been like that since Super Mario Kart.

My best guess is they wanted to add them, but Nintendo moved up the release date and they decided to cut battle arenas. It's a guess, but it would explain it at least.

Regular R also works.

They're mean at 150 CC, but more for their tendency to kick you when you're down than anything else.

I've been encountering them quite infrequently on MK8. Maybe one for every 2-3 races. It's an event when it happens. It also doesn't fuck you over as much as it did in MKDS and onward. It used to bounce you around for 20 minutes and throw you off a cliff, and if you jumped before it could hit you, it would wat for…

Shame we couldn't keep Ronald Reagan out of office!

The rock of actively not giving a shit until now

This game wasn't even on my radar until now (literally, I knew nothing about it). This is such a great idea.
