this is something ALOT of games lack. Its not just about 60fps animations, but the transitions. A game like FIFA or madden looks horrible in slowmotion, because the animations transition into another animations so badly.
There's a lot to be said for a beautiful color pallet. Between 3D World, MK 8, W101, Wind Waker HD... these games look better than most PS4/XB1 games even if they're not as graphically intense. Can't wait to race.
4TheWinQuinn Ummmmmm.... No.... I have a PS4 with battlefield and Fifa 14 and MK8 looks more colorful and fun and it also looks gorgeous... The only reason I use my PS4 is to play Fifa and that's it .... My PS4 is basically collecting dust and I'm really enjoying my Wii U
will madrid Tomb raider definitive edition, Infamous second son, Forza 5, Ryse are technically better in my opinion although nintendo really nailed the art style like they always do and the visuals are amazing. I don't own a wii u but this game looks worth picking one up for.
chowdrister I had infamous but I dint like it and kill zone umm... I heard that is not a good game so ... Naahhh I'll wait for God of War or maybe watch dogs Im not sure
jim bob it's totally worth it dude!!! Plus Smash coming out this year and Bayonetta 2, X, and Zelda Wii U??? It's definitely worth having a Wii U... Super Mario 3D World is amazing and DKTF is so much fun...
Finally a Nintendo related video on TH-cam from IGN where the majority of comments are not flaming or hating. Da good vibes. Can't wait for this game, good thing I have a Wii U.
As an owner of both a PS4 and Wii U, I can honestly say I've had far more fun with my Wii U. Don't get me wrong, Resogun was... well, absolutely spectacular, but everything else has been a dud. But on Wii U, I've had consistent fun with Rayman, Mario U, 3D World and the AMAZING Tropical Freeze. And MK8 looks to continue the fun. I don't care how glitzy a game looks, if it has shallow gameplay it's nothing.
XBONE and PS4 can whip out as much highly realistic detailed games they want, but none of their games entertain me as long as the Mario Kart series, and it won't be no different with this game as well as Smash. I can play those games for freaking years.
***** Expectations? How does the expectations of a game determine if a console is next-gen or not? Wii U is not a next-gen console. Confirmed by these next-gen only games not releasing on Wii U. Graphics don't make a next-gen console, power does.
Face it, people. The Nintendo Days are back. You haters can go ahead and play GTA and CoD with your "friends" online while the rest of us play a beautiful kart-racing game. Stop being a bunch of senseless jerks and actually not be completely negative about everything Nintendo makes. I respect your opinions, but please respect ours.
But then I just saw the gameplay trailer to Sunset Overdrive on the Xbone! Damn you exclusiveness! Ha but I'm also sticking to the Wii U for now cause the price is more attractive. #brokeassgamer lol
Jxudo I appreciate the reassurance man. I'm still on the late train and foaming at the mouth to still play Super Mario 3D World. Now if Nintendo would please try bringing Pokemon to consoles again and do it in an open world rpg setting on the Wii U I'm sure the world will just blowup from excitement. You can call it Pokemon meets Skyrim or something haha
You know what's the funny part? The Xbox One has no extra screen on its controller and it's hard to get 60 fps on more than one screen, but apparently the Wii U has a screen on the TV and on the controller and it can go 60 fps...
Holy bananas, that looks stunning! I tought it looked great before, but seeing it like this really makes you appreciate the detail of it all! I mean Killzone looks beautifull on PS4 ... hell i max out crysis3 with a great framerate on my new PC it's AMAZING! .... but this , this is why i need Nintendo.
I was gonna say that the first song sounded similar to a common song you would hear in space, just missing some notes. But then that song I was talking about came on later in the video. XD
Mario Kart 8 may be the only reason I'm still playing my Wii U at the moment, but it's actually one of my favourite games! It just goes to show, you don't need 30+ games to keep your console from collecting dust. You just need one good game.
heres a funny thing while i watching this: 1:11 ) toad: iiiim goiiiing fiiiirst..!! iggy:*trows the green shell after toad is behind him*nnnooomeeeeeeee. toad:*panic*nnnooooooooooooo...!!!*gets hitted*whoaaaaaaahahah...>.
games on other consoles are trying to achieve photo-realistic graphics with all the textures and particle affects...you'll really need better hardware to pull that off...mario kart 8 keeps the same art-style but in HD and with better lighting...which is really enough to make this a beautiful game.
No one can do lighting, shadow, and water effects like Nintendo. Heck the water from Sunshine still looks amazing! Sorry PS4 you are going to be collecting dust this summer because Nintendo just showed you up.
No estoy muy seguro todavía, ya que el juego no ha sido lanzado entonces aún no sabemos mucho de sus mecánicas. Lo que se es que vas a poder subidos a TH-cam por medio de Mario Kart TV. Hey !, pero sólo un par de semanas más y tendremos todos los detalles de este juegazo !
¡Sí! Ya se confirmo en varias páginas como IGN o Gamespot que Mario Kart TV tiene muchas opciónes en las que tu mismo puedes acelerar o alentar las imágenes a tu gusto y elegir distintos tipos de enfoque de la cámara para darle un toque más dramático a la escena, además de que puedes subir directamente a TH-cam esos videos sin necesidad de abrir aplicaciones externas. ¡Mendiga emoción! :')
Video si, (pero por pista, no combinados). Aun así si conoces de edición puedes subir tu video, bajarlo y editarlo como quieras en algún otro programa.
Haha, every game should be slowed down and put to this music xD Everything from LEGO games to Master Chief blowing heads off, it all works well in slow motion. Assuming the frame rate is high enough to allow it to look good :P
If the reviews for this are good (which i'm guessing they will be), then this may convince me to get a Wii U. Looks like i'm going to be hermitting it up this summer
I have just realized something...Nintendo consoles graphics are always lower then other consoles EXAMPLE: xbox 360 and ps3 looked amazing and wii looks like gamecube and xbox one and ps4 looks gorgeous while wii u looks amazing
Possibly one of the best looking games on the wii u so far, mario 3d world was no doubt a gorgeous game but mario kart 8's beautiful ness goes beyond that in my opinion.
Watch Dogs and then this? It's gonna be a fun month.
they laughed when I said I bought a wii u..... now who's laughing hahahahaha
xD not u anymore since Mk8dx is on the Switch now xD
this comment is 5 years old give it a break
This is on par with everything I've played on my PS4 right now.
this is something ALOT of games lack. Its not just about 60fps animations, but the transitions. A game like FIFA or madden looks horrible in slowmotion, because the animations transition into another animations so badly.
There's a lot to be said for a beautiful color pallet. Between 3D World, MK 8, W101, Wind Waker HD... these games look better than most PS4/XB1 games even if they're not as graphically intense. Can't wait to race.

will madrid get killzone shadowfall or inFamous SS
will madrid Tomb raider definitive edition, Infamous second son, Forza 5, Ryse are technically better in my opinion although nintendo really nailed the art style like they always do and the visuals are amazing. I don't own a wii u but this game looks worth picking one up for.

It's that nintendo polish that no other game can do.

I don't care how glitzy a game looks, if it has shallow gameplay it's nothing.
Let me guess, your tired of all the dark and gritty games most devs have been focusing. Your looking for something jaw-dropping to the imagination.
+TheNorth15 aye.
after all, graphics don't make up a game.
gameplay does.
XBONE and PS4 can whip out as much highly realistic detailed games they want, but none of their games entertain me as long as the Mario Kart series, and it won't be no different with this game as well as Smash. I can play those games for freaking years.
Amen
I have titanfall and can't even play it for a month but i still play double dash and melee ten to twelve years later
Yep, their are people still online on Mario Kart Wii and that game has been out for over 7 years.
TheNorth15 Actually, Mario Kart Wii came out in the last few days of April in 2008. So 6 years.
This is graphically the sexiest looking game on the Wii U. My body is indubitably ready.
It's even sexier with slo-mo's of Rosalina, *if you know what I mean*... B}
....
00:22
Look at wario's eyes folllowing it's opponent... Amazing detail!!
this looks too good, hope the sales are strong
bearguy20 You're joking right? The Wii U might not be doing so well right now, but c'mon.
bearguy20 The Wii has surpassed 100 million sold.
bearguy20
I guess there's a reason why hate is blind. Completely ignore the Wii, DS, and 3DS sales.
*Cough* Wii and 3ds *Cough*
The sales are strong with this one.
Can't wait, got my Wii U ready and waiting :D
The music makes it funny as hell
Do you know the name of the song ?
could you tell me ? :D
TheOthoman The blue Danube by John Strauss
Thaaanks ! :D
Lucie Furu "John Strauss?" You mean Johann Strauss II? FFS.
Me too
Wii U next gen console......confirmed .
that would actually be awesome Nintendo is the only one slacking on next Gen graphics
Homicide Trax nigga dis shit look betta than any xbox one game i seen. nigga get real
ZombieZifiction you're white, stop trying so hard.
Wait, so graphics are important now? Not the power.
***** Expectations? How does the expectations of a game determine if a console is next-gen or not? Wii U is not a next-gen console. Confirmed by these next-gen only games not releasing on Wii U. Graphics don't make a next-gen console, power does.

Stop being a bunch of senseless jerks and actually not be completely negative about everything Nintendo makes. I respect your opinions, but please respect ours.
Can't wait for this game
I'm so ready for this! Smash Bros. And this game have me saving up for a wii u instead of a ps4 and Xbox right now.
Good man with an great mind! (Y)
Trust me, you won't be disappointed. Had mine since 2 months after launch. Great system, great games, great fun! And even more to come!
But then I just saw the gameplay trailer to Sunset Overdrive on the Xbone! Damn you exclusiveness! Ha but I'm also sticking to the Wii U for now cause the price is more attractive. #brokeassgamer lol
Jxudo I appreciate the reassurance man. I'm still on the late train and foaming at the mouth to still play Super Mario 3D World.

You can call it Pokemon meets Skyrim or something haha
Satoru Iwata I'll wash your car for a 3DS.
0:46 majestic as FUARK
And thats what 60 fps looks like microsoft
You know what's the funny part? The Xbox One has no extra screen on its controller and it's hard to get 60 fps on more than one screen, but apparently the Wii U has a screen on the TV and on the controller and it can go 60 fps...
Mine FXaR Nope. It just looks laggy.
NICE!!! LOVE the great detail they add to the animations XD
This truly is a next gen game: all the small details, animations, and the fact it still is super smooth when slowed down (dat 1080p 60fps).
Holy bananas, that looks stunning! I tought it looked great before, but seeing it like this really makes you appreciate the detail of it all! I mean Killzone looks beautifull on PS4 ... hell i max out crysis3 with a great framerate on my new PC it's AMAZING! .... but this , this is why i need Nintendo.
I'm sorry but you just made me think of the old batman tv show where robin always said "holy .... Batman"
Gorgeous. I'm dying to get my hands on it.
Funny!!!
Only 14 days 16 hours and 18 minutes to go
You forgot the seconds :p
TheGood Shepherd
Seven* days
TheGood Shepherd I read your comment then realized that was a week ago! Woo!
That was... Just stunning... Possibly the best use of the song ever.
Poor Luigi. I guess the year of Luigi really is over
So much attention to details.... nothing right now looks so polished and with a great gameplay as nintendo delivers.
This is one of the best edited videos from IGN, please more of this, less podcast.
This IS not just a game.THIS IS ART OF PERFECTION.
1:09
Toad = "I'm soooooo high right now!"
Zelda breath of the wild is possibly the greatest game iv ever played and now Mario kart 8. I love my switch and so glad I bought one.
2020 and this is still so powerful.
This is just hilarious! Man I can't wait for this game.
Also, I love how long baby mario was airborn at 1:26
16 days. Just 16 more days. I now know how Cartman felt. The wait for this game is killing me
look at that mustache physics
Looks at the jaw-dropping racetracks, characters, and 1080p graphics...
Than looks at the games physics.
MUSTACHE PHYSICS! IT'S FINALLY HAPPENED!!!
i just like the detail towards the wheels when youre on dirt and grass
I love that song and I'm going to love this game once I get my hands on it!
Hey i liked the song, can you tell me the name, please? :)
The Blue Danube by Strauss buddy.
So many thanks ! :)
No prob bob.
I own a ps4 and can say this looks better graphically than any ps4 game to date
I was gonna say that the first song sounded similar to a common song you would hear in space, just missing some notes. But then that song I was talking about came on later in the video. XD
Alternate title: Toad's Endless Suffering
Mario Kart 8 may be the only reason I'm still playing my Wii U at the moment, but it's actually one of my favourite games! It just goes to show, you don't need 30+ games to keep your console from collecting dust. You just need one good game.
No one does it quite like Nintendo...
heres a funny thing while i watching this:
1:11 ) toad: iiiim goiiiing fiiiirst..!! iggy:*trows the green shell after toad is behind him*nnnooomeeeeeeee. toad:*panic*nnnooooooooooooo...!!!*gets hitted*whoaaaaaaahahah...>.
2 more weeks! This is gonna be so much fun, already have a couple of tournaments planned
Wii U 1080p 60fps while other consoles are struggling to get that, now tell me whose the real next gen console? Wii U gets so much undeserved hate.
games on other consoles are trying to achieve photo-realistic graphics with all the textures and particle affects...you'll really need better hardware to pull that off...mario kart 8 keeps the same art-style but in HD and with better lighting...which is really enough to make this a beautiful game.
one of the best IGN videos
If this game is available for ps4 and Xbox one Nintendo would make a whole lot more money
Really looking forward to this graphics look amazing have to put infamous on the back burner to hammer the online on it
The bullet bill looked so majestic
what an awesome commercial
This game is beautiful all the time.
Proof of the WiiU's visual power.
1:28 Holy shit @ Rosalina's face being illuminated by the blue light her Anti-Grav sends off *_*
whaaat aaaa beautiiiiifuuuullll slooooow-moootioooooon
No one can do lighting, shadow, and water effects like Nintendo. Heck the water from Sunshine still looks amazing! Sorry PS4 you are going to be collecting dust this summer because Nintendo just showed you up.
Quite rightly Nintendo show the best dedication to the best Kart Racer ever made :)
Jesus, DK looks like he's on PCP.
Everything looks better in slow motion
Princess Peach is mai waifu.
vjm3 Same.
It maddens me that you upload a video focused on graphics in a low native resolution!! Do you not have a good enough capture device?
Gonna give me credit,looks stunning
esto es lo que podremos hacer con Mario Kart TV?
No estoy muy seguro todavía, ya que el juego no ha sido lanzado entonces aún no sabemos mucho de sus mecánicas. Lo que se es que vas a poder subidos a TH-cam por medio de Mario Kart TV. Hey !, pero sólo un par de semanas más y tendremos todos los detalles de este juegazo !

Video si, (pero por pista, no combinados). Aun así si conoces de edición puedes subir tu video, bajarlo y editarlo como quieras en algún otro programa.
si, varias cosas mas.
Si. MKTV tiene la opcion de Slow Mo. Genial
Haha, every game should be slowed down and put to this music xD
Everything from LEGO games to Master Chief blowing heads off, it all works well in slow motion.
Assuming the frame rate is high enough to allow it to look good :P
0:33 ame esa parte XD !!!!
Pink gold peach is so majestic
Glorious and Beautiful 60fps, that's all that matters...
Mk8's TRUE 200cc speed! So fast i can't even tell!
I like how Nintendo put new features of Mario kart 8 but this an awesome slow motion
If the reviews for this are good (which i'm guessing they will be), then this may convince me to get a Wii U. Looks like i'm going to be hermitting it up this summer
Edge gave it a 9/10
Yes, I am watching this in 2018. We get it already.
This is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen.
Great thing I got my Wii U! :-D
Just a stunningly beautiful game that is an absolute joy to play!
Notice how the wheels turn faster than the car moves past the ground.
Super Pumped for this game! and Wildstar! and Watchdogs! AARRGH so many good games about to come out!
now this looks more like xbox one/ps4 graphics, good job Nintendo
is it just me: it looks very weird to see a Mario game with good graphic
It's just you.
I think the word you're looking for is "Beautiful" not weird.
It looks a bit worse than good ps3 graphics (gta5), xBone or PS4 are alot better
I have just realized something...Nintendo consoles graphics are always lower then other consoles
EXAMPLE: xbox 360 and ps3 looked amazing and wii looks like gamecube and xbox one and ps4 looks gorgeous while wii u looks amazing
spinosaurus46
Gamecube was better than PS2 but apart from that yeah.
Even if you hate nintendo you have to admit that the game looks great.
Game of the year!!!
who made this? IGN? great work!
Awesome vid! I've heard the song before but what is it called?
0:31 Dat blue shell.
Slow-mo makes everyone look like they're floating in space.
0:42 rubbernecking.
Wow it does look really nice, especially considering we can only watch it in 720p with youtube's crappy vid compression
LOOKS AMAZING! This is why I bought a Wii U (And for a bit more games)
With this and Smash I'm convinced DK is starting to go....
bananas.
0:54 is DK biting his arm?
This game should be rated M.
Possibly one of the best looking games on the wii u so far, mario 3d world was no doubt a gorgeous game but mario kart 8's beautiful ness goes beyond that in my opinion.
Omg im in love with this mario kart 😍
just gorgeous man i hope this is the game that jumps the sales i mean everyone loves MK
That look so cool when baby Mario do a trick
This music is the blue Danube waltz written by Johann Strauss
PC > Wii U > Ps4 > Xbox one
Quality wise, yes.
It’s the Blue Danube waltz!
Kubrick would be proud.
The city under Rainbow Road really reminds me of Lumiose
Mario Kart 8 is beautiful in slow motion by it's self but with the music... Smoosh!
This is very cool there anyway to play this game in this mode or was this just edited as I Thought it was
