Mario Kart 8 Miiverse Community Is Alive and Thriving; Check Out These Gorgeous Screenshots

Mike From Mii-gamer writes:

It appears many fans have gotten their hands on Mario Kart 8 early. The Mario Kart 8 community has been open for a while, but now it is alive and thriving. True to the community spirit - Miiverse users have been posting screenshots, YouTube videos and art.

However, for most fans there will be two or three more sleeps, before we are able to put the foot on the pedal. Until then, perhaps these gorgeous screenshot taken by Karter's around the world will be enough fight off those cravings.

Jealous. These look great.

I'd say it's the most visually appealing game of 2014 so far. Can't wait to play it on Friday.

[randomass171]

Nuts. As if I need to be anymore anticipated than I already am.

[choujij]

Agreed. I am hosting a MK8 launch party on Friday amongst my closest friends. Although, friendships will definitely be shelved for the night.

Beerio Kart will be taking place as well. XD So excited.

[Geobros]

Impressive!!!

[Alex_Boro]

Man Friday can't come sooner

[Kevlar009]

My Bundle :)

[wonderfulmonkeyman]

Damn it, why haven't we invented time machines yet?!

Heck, I'd settle for a robotic double that would let me stay home while it goes to work in my stead so that I could make the time pass more quickly by having fun!

Just someone, please, find a way to make time go faster!

I heard going to Sears helps lol

[wonderfulmonkeyman]

I've already got a pre-order at gamestop, though.
I don't want to miss out on that free DL game offer...

[seraphym88]

why not DL it? edit: didnt see lower :)

[ShellB]

That free DL game is not exclusive to GameStop. The registration code is inside the packaging. Unless GameStop employees remove the code lol.

[wonderfulmonkeyman]

True, but I'd lose the money I put down on the game because Gamestop would just turn it into credit instead of giving me my cash back.
Feels like a waste to cancel this close to release, ya know?

Awesome photos..Will be playing the WiiU soon

[GoPanthers999]

Very jealous. Waiting on my Walmart preorder with free steering wheel and already have $5 vudu credit.

Also, do not have to preorder to register and get free game.

[Summons75]

One long day of waiting :) then I get my game, free game (thanks Nintendo), 10$ gift card and 10$ gas card (always giving the best promos best buy)

Gonna be a great weekend.

[DryBoneKoopa85]

I'm super excited for Friday! I can't wait to grab my copy!!! Mario Kart 8 Pizza Party!!!

[Totoro17]

Can I come?? I'll bring the beer and chips!

[MNGamer-N]

I'm thinking about having a Mario Kart Party. It would be so much fun. I also overheard a bunch of people at work talking about picking up Mario Kart this weekend too. The buzz is going around!

[OtakuDJK1NG-Rory]

My copy coming in from Amazon Friday Evening

[nesiguess]

Hurry up! Absolutely gorgeous looking.

[Derpy]

Sadly I can't get it day one because of more pressing matters draining me financially, but as soon as I can I will be grabbing this one. It's been a while since I've really got into a good Mario Kart game and this one doesn't look like one to be missed.

[thehobbyist]

All that matters is getting it before June is over for that free game.

[Neonridr]

Sorry to hear of your troubles Derpy. But I hope everything works out for you and you are able to get this game sooner than later. And like thehobbyist said, before the end of June so you don't miss out on the free game offer.

[Reeze]

Today: last day of school
Friday: Mario Kart 8
Saturday: graduation
Sunday: hedgehog arrives

This is going to be an awesome weekend!

[Ninte]

I'm can't wait for mine to arrive in the post

[Dunban67]

how much difference does it make if you have a wheel or not? Would most people recommend getting one?
