    The Wii U Mario bundle is on sale for 250 on ebay. I'm tempted to buy it but I'll wait to see what they'll announce at E3 just in case a price drop or new model will come out.

    The only complaint I have is you have to look down at the controller to see the mini map. They should've given us the option to leave it on the screen.

    Game looks amazing.

    Best randomly Jazz video game soundtrack since Marvel vs Capcom 2. Dat Dolphin Shoals.

    Seems like they really wanted to balance this compared to the all out insanity that was Mario Kart Wii. Its all about skillful driving, defense and maintaining your speed. ? like green shells and banana peels matter more now than they have since the SNES. Items are helpful, but nothing will automatically bring you back, especially since you can only hold one at time now.

    Its looks great, but I don't like how they shortened the N64 Rainbow Road course, and I don't like the new Rainbow Road either. Its has some cool turns, but not epic enough. Gotta play more, but favorite new course right now is Thwomp Ruins. I'm terrible on Sweet Sweet Canyon.

    Customization is so important. You can lose a match before it even begins.

    Main setup right now is...

    Ludwig [M] or Waluigi [H] > Sport Bike > Crimson Slim > Bowser Kite or Super Glider

    I mainly stick to the bikes. If I use a cart, its the Biddybuggy. I think I still have a bunch to unlock though. I can manage online with what I have now though, were as before it was impossible to keep up no matter what.

    Nintendo goes “Live @ E3” next week with four big events that deliver real-time fun directly to fans. Get ready to enjoy the year’s biggest video game convention live from anywhere in the world.

    On June 10, Nintendo will air the Nintendo Digital Event at 9 a.m. PT via http://e3.nintendo.com. Fans will enjoy breaking news about great gaming experiences on the way for Wii U and Nintendo 3DS in 2014 and beyond.

    Immediately following the Digital Event, Nintendo Minute: Live @ E3 offers a post-show recap packed with even more game information.

    Later in the day on June 10, Nintendo will broadcast the Super Smash Bros. Invitational tournament. Super Smash Bros. fans can tune in to watch 16 highly skilled players compete in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U. The event starts at 4 p.m. PT with live-stream viewing on Nintendo’s Twitch channel at http://www.twitch.tv/nintendo.

    Finally, fans won’t want to miss Nintendo Treehouse: Live @ E3. During all hours of E3 on Nintendo’s Twitch channel (excluding the Super Smash Bros. Invitational event), members of Nintendo’s Treehouse will be live-streaming exclusive game demos from the Nintendo booth on the show floor. In addition to demos, Nintendo will deliver the latest game reveals, plus visits from developers like Shigeru Miyamoto. The unscripted three-day event will air June 10-12, providing an insider’s look at the Nintendo experience at E3, filled with surprises and unexpected moments.

    I hope they stream live on their youtube channel as well this time.
