8 ways to own Mario Kart 8!

Mario kart 8 has over 2 million skilled players that know all the techniques in getting into first place, but not all of them, here's 8 ways to dominate in Mario kart 8 than any other player!

1. The start boost to a flawless start!

Everyone know this trick and it's the start boost! In this game is not easy actually to get the big boost you want to start off the race with. When the number 2 drops down the screen, that is when you hold down the accelerate button, make sure you do it as soon as it drops because if you do it too early, your car will burst it's fuel making your car stop for atleast 5 seconds making your opponents get a headstart, do it to late isn't such a bad thing but you won't get a huge boost, only a mini one. Do it right? Your boost is gonna end up as a mushroom boost!

2. There's actually 2 accelerate controls!

Incase your a typical gamer that would like to take it hardcore a little bit, on the wii u gamepad has 2 controls that will make your kart accelerate either way. The 'A' button is one way and the right analog stick while pushing it forward without pressing the 'A' button is another way. The other controls for items, drifting, etc. are the same, just an easier way for your fingers to be at the same height for comfortable gameplay for better performance.

3. Go old school to be 1st!

Remember that old school pipe frame kart which was the first ever kart that appeared in the first mario kart and mario kart 64? Well actually in our opinion, the pipe frame kart with small-medium wheels, with any type of glider is the fastest kart in Mario kart 8! When you use any type of weight character, the handling, the speed, and the weight and etc. of the car combination is perfect when you click the '+' button to see the chart and when you actually take it on the road! Trust me, I would've never gotten my golden glider by drifting for those coins and speeding at the same time! Try it!

4. HOP after your DRIFT! 

People don't notice this but when you hop 2 times quickly after your drif boost, your speed increases even more after the boost you get weather it's a blue spark or a red one! Try it!

5. Don't be afraid of the kart's ability

Most players think that just because the Motorbike in Mario kart Wii had wheelies to make the bike go faster, will still be better and faster in the new Mario kart 8 even though the wheelie is taken out for you to control. Well umm, no, both karts and motorbikes in Mario kart 8 are the fastest on most of the tracks said in the last nintendo direct. So don't worry, you just have to customize your vehicle right.

6. The coins are important!

A lot of players asked the same questions over and over again to see what are the coins meant for in this game. They aren't here just to bling in our face, they here to help us! How? Pick up ten, which is the limit to have in 1 race, to save up to unlock new random characters and vehicle parts! Not only that, the coins help your speed! Each time you collect one at a time, it increases even more but just watch out from any obstacles because if you get hit or fall off the track, you'll lose 3 coins which decrease your speed quick!

7. How to Avoid Spectating and join a lobby fast

Many people hate spectating since it's so boring! But here's an amazing tip to avoid watching the racers race when your trying to join an online match! When your selecting your character for the online match, pick it, then pick a customized vehicle you would like to use then just wait a few seconds and then a countdown will appear, that means a lobby is waiting on your vote for the race! Then there you have it! Your not going to spectate anymore!

8. The gold kart is eh...

Don't get us wrong, the gold kart in Mario kart 8 is an amazing glossy glittering gold kart to use and all but it isn't so fast enough in our opinion when you add all the gold parts together to race. Don't force yourself to use this vehicle just because your thinking about the bragging to the other players, not really the winning. Haha! I know what your doing gamers, I just know😉, tryout a race in Mario kart 8 today by using our tips gamers! See you soon!

Mario kart 8 DLC confirmed fake by cvg_news, BUT DON'T BELIEVE THEM!

CVG_news confirmed on twitter the leaked pictures being fake of the added 5 new characters to the roster and the new battle modes returning from the previous Mario kart on Mario kart 8. BUT, that does not tell you to stop giving up because we got evidence telling you why they are wrong!

First of all, let's get this striaght, Nintendo didn't confirmed this, a whole different person did, that's number one, number two? Please read our last blog on the DLC which will tell you everything why this is legit. And number 3, well, let's get to it!

Just keep in mind guys, just because a person has loads of followers, doesn't mean they can't make mistakes on what they post. Heck, we have 10k and we make mistakes sometimes by a simple wrong error we make then a nice fan starts correcting us appropriately. So keep that in mind, now let's get to the talking, cvg_news not only tweeted something fast without thinking but they linked a video that was taken at e3 last year! Yeah, what's our point right? Check this video out they linked us before reading on: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=HVkjQ8WAtsQ

Saw it right? Yeah, now let's get to more explanation. 

This room right here looked like it was the same exact room the video was taken in, the gamepad color, the tv, the guys shadow kind of and more. Cvg_news could be right about the new modes being added to Mario kart 8 being fake but we don't know about the the added characters! Take another look at this!

E3 took place for Mario kart 8 last year, the same exact year the video was taken that cvg_news linked us. So this was the first character selection screen for Mario kart 8, but can they explain this??

This room was definitely not the same exact room the video was taken last year.  Here's one more look guys!

This is this year's e3 where shigeru miyamoto was playing the new star fox for wii u in a purple shadowed room. The same exact atmosphere the new characters selection screen picture was taken. Cvg_news can't explain the added on characters because we know exactly what we're talking about, besides, the old characters selection screen and the new one looks extremely different! The new character selection screen had to be taken this year at e3 and we don't care what anybody says, Nintendo didn't confirmed this being fake so remember that once again but you never know! We could be wrong but just have faith guys. Well guys, we're done here for the day, mmt signing out! Please share this blog, spread the word! :)

Mario kart 8 DLC

So apparently a "Leaked" photo or should I say, PHOTOS, have been taking over the internet for nintendo fans that had them raging over their seats before e3. If you haven't seen them yet, here's your chance, the first photo shows you 5 new characters being playable on Mario kart 8. The characters are:

Birdo from the super mario™ series

Plessie from super mario 3D world™

Professor e.gadd from Luigi's Mansion™

Kamek from super mario™ series (This character was suppose to be playable in Mario kart 64 but was then later replaced after the beta with DK.)

And finally the monkey we all know and love, Diddy kong.

Not only characters were "leaked" but new battle modes too! The two new battle modes were "Shine thief" and "Bomb-omb blast." These 2 modes appeared in the 4th mario kart series, mario kart double dash. Nintendo did mentioned of bringing back some parts of gameplay from Mario kart double dash into the future so this makes sense. 

"3 reasons why this could be LEGIT."

1. On the bottom left corner of the battle selection mode screen, you can see the same exact thing from the TV to the gamepad.

2. The photo looks like it was taken at e3 since the room looks kind of purple and shows the "wii u" logo station on one of the pictures.

3. Nintendo announced a new thing called "amiibo" where you can add new figurines for new characters and etc. for many games in the future. One of those games they announced that you can use the figurines for is Mario Kart 8™. So maybe Nintendo will allow you to get new characters for this game by getting these cool little figurines in stores or maybe striaght from the eshop.

Your probably wondering why plessie was on the character selection screen, well if you played the previous Mario kart which was Mario kart 7™, Queen bee was a hugemuguos character then resized her to fit the kart, maybe they will resize Plessie the same way IF this is real.

E3 is over unfortunately and Nintendo has not announced anything about this DLC for Mario kart 8™, but that doesn't tell us to give up, there's still a chance to play as our favorite characters we all love and adore. We might have to wait until the holidays when Super Smash Bros.4 is being released, (The same day Amiibo is being released.) to see if nintendo will announce DLC for these special little figurines. And also, we must have DLC soon since Japan already had a DLC released for them by nintendo which was the Mercedes Benz car for free, you know nintendo, they don't do us dirty like that by just leaving us at the corner for not getting anything either but if all of this is fake, the person who made this did a fantastic job! Not saying this is real or fake but we're giving you clue of what could happen in the future, mmt signing out!
