TalkBack / Re: Mario Kart 8's Use of the GamePad Is Disappointing

People are coming up with anything they can do hate on MK8 even if it defies common sense..

6 months ago it was, "I don't want to take my eyes off the TV to see the pad and kill the experience."
Or this one "
 Now it is." They should let you use the pad in some way maybe to draw the route of the boomerang" or some other thoughtless excuse. Yes I am sure in a racing game, the one thing you should have plenty of time to do is take your eyes and hands away from the controller to draw a route for a weapon.

GT has a track editor? Forza? NFS? Sonic? Nope but those get a pass, this is Nintendo and they need an editor or they fail as a company but MS, Sony, Sega and EA are okay without them.

You know people are threatened when they defy common sense to hate on something

We didn’t really hear an explanation for why this is the case, but as the game is silky smooth and gorgeous, it’s probably some chicanery about not wanting the graphical experience altered. Truthfully, the splendid visuals would likely have to be muddled to push out two comparable and smooth displays on the GamePad and the TV, but if that’s the kind of thing that can’t be worked out on a Nintendo game on the Wii U, then what is the point of even having the GamePad as a controller?

Other outlets are reporting that the game drops to 30fps in 4-player and possibly 3-player split-screen. That was understandable on GameCube and Wii, but pretty sad here."


Wow.. This is true of any multi player game on any console. Even Killzone on PS4 drops from 1080p in MP.

How can someone be part of running a game site, yet make such a foolish statement? Just really sad honestly and I am sure you will defend your stance rather than admit you were wrong but I am curious why its okay for X1 and PS4 to change in MP mode but sad for the Wii U to do the same
