I'm going to try and get some MK8 going tonight. I'll hopefully be available around 9pm, but we will see. Open invite for anyone on my friends list that would like to join in. DLC hits tomorrow, gotta get ready

I really want to check out the 200cc races. That seems crazy.

Had 6 of us racing last night, which is the best turnout I've mustered in a while. Looking forward to the next one.
Not sure when I'll race on Thursday... gotta watch dem Red Wangs.

Building on that last post, I'll most likely be hosting up a friend lobby or tournament to race the DLC on tonight.

What time were you thinking of popping on tonight? I'll be on right after work 5:30ish EST to check out the tracks and then most likely between 9 and 10 this evening.

OK, I have never really put much thought into this.
But, is there any voice chat on Wii U? If so, how does it work?

Oh damn, I hadn't thought about that. Now that you mention it, I don't remember there being any during online matches. Is there a party function, maybe? Like the PS4?

Mario Kart has voice chat but only in a friend lobby, and only in between races. Same thing for Smash, in the lobby before the match starts. I've used Skype or Mumble on my smartphone to make up for this. Oh damn, I hadn't thought about that. Now that you mention it, I don't remember there being any during online matches. Is there a party function, maybe? Like the PS4? Unfortunately... no, there is not. C'mon Nintendo.....

I've never joined an online multiplayer match outside of my brother's weekend tournies, so I have no idea what I'm getting into. I've never tried it, but I don't think tournaments have voice chat even in their lobbies.
I won't be home til close to 8 thanks to errands. Think you'll still be going?

Yeah, tourney lobbies have no voice chat whatsoever. They are nice to throw up just so anyone can join regardless if on friends list or not. Found the downside of that Tuesday night when I had to back out to add someone and it dumped everyone out of the lobby I'll be hopping on this evening around 9, so if you are on after 8, that should be fine.

It bums me out that a game so amazing has the absolute most archaic lack of chat for online multiplayer. The idea that you can only voice chat ONLY in private rooms, and ONLY while you're in the lobby? You crazy, Nintendo.
Regardless, I really want to play more vs other peeps. We need to set up another night to play and maybe get the feelers out for more to join.
