My only real complaint is that their choice of characters seems a bit off. I mean, Metal Mario? Pink Gold Peach? Baby Rosalina? Iggy, Roy, Lemmy, Larry, Wendy, Ludwig and Morton? I miss guys like Diddy Kong and Funky Kong.

Also, the horn isn't as useful as I'd have hoped. Whenever I get it, I hold on to it in case of blue shells, but then I get thunderstruck.

The Koopalings are fine, but those other ones aren't great.

Still, it's not like I'm gonna play as anyone but Shy Guy, so moot point.

The soundtrack's apparently going Galaxy style with live music, so the themes gotta sound awesome.

How's the gameplay overall?

I've only completed the 50cc stuff, so I can't comment on the higher difficulties, but antigravity opens up some interesting avenues for track design. It's not incredibly noticeable on the parts where the track doesn't split, but at points you'll have people racing on opposite walls and on the ceiling. Also, when you're in antigravity, you'll actually want to bump into stuff, since when you do you do a short spin and get a speed boost. Otherwise, gameplay is about as good as it's always been.

I want to know why Mario Kart hasn't gone all Smash Bros and started pulling in characters like Link or Samus. I'd definitely prefer them over baby versions of the characters.

Given Dr. Mario's appearance in Smash, weird random variations like Metal Mario seem par for the course to me.

Wow, Shy Guy theme is gorgeous. Banjo and fiddle for the win.

I don't. I have Sonic kart on PC that I don't play anymore anyway.

I'm hoping to get a Wii U this summer now that there are some good games out for it. Super Mario 3 D World, the Wind Waker remake, Wonderful101, Mario Kart 8.

Also, I'm watching that episode of Avatar where Sokka gets wacked out on cactus juice.

I'm still not sure if I want to pick up a Wii U first or a PS 4. Sort of leaning towards the Wii U, but I'm gonna wait until after E3 to decide for sure.

Wii U, PS 4 will never have Smash Bros, Mario Kart, Zelda....

Whenever I ponder the next gen non-portable consoles, I find none of them can sell me on them. The 3DS was a no-brainer, because Fire Emblem Awakening, but the others have failed to release a game that gets me anywhere close to the same level of excitement.

[up][up] As a corollary. The PS 3/4 has Kingdom Hearts, Final Fantasy, Terraria (Those are multiplatform with the Xbox and the latter is also in steam). Nptunia, verious Nippon Ichi games and other decent games.

The Xbox has a plethora of FPS (some are are shared with the PS and Steam like Bioshock, others are more exclusive like HALO)

Steam has some of the above games as well as Team Fortress 2 and Half Life

Also you forget that in general, Mario Games are exclusive to Nintendo Platforms

PS 4 just has fewer games I'm interested in at this point. Yeah, KH 3 and further entries in the FF series and the Disgaea games are good, but I can wait for those. But when another SSBM or Zelda comes along? I need that now.

EDIT: Whoo I got on EQD again.

Meh FF has been going downhill, nothing good I know of about XII, hate the MMO's and don't like what I'm seeing from XV either.

Kingdom Hearts is the only one I'm really interested in, but even then, there are SO damn many games and on so many different systems.. just kind of ehhhh...

[up] Of course you did. Love the comments on that this was the best.

The PS 4 will eventually have a ton of stuff I want to play on it, but right now it only has a few games I'd play, and none of them are must haves.
