Mario Kart Arcade GP (with Pacman)

[KJN]

Interesting.

Namco developed, Triforce arcade game.





Has a camera that takes pictures of the players face to use as avatars in the game.

[Zubiac666]

damn when was this released?

they MUST make a gamecube-port for godsake.
this looks too cool

[Dimitri]

I know I'll not be the first to say this:

That looks like it could be better than Double Dash was.

[Jasoco]

Whoa! That's so cool. [Adds to list of arcade games I must have before I die. Wonders if they can be played as a single cabinet to save space in the house.]

[Mayhem]

Hopefully it will make it here like F-Zero AX did...

[Cauterize]

purely wow! nice to see pacman on a kart! I think every game ever made should have a kart version!

[DJ_DEEM]

thats a terrible idea, i really dont ever wanna see a metal gear kart game, although i do see it coming. First card game, then kart : P

[Kilik Kurosawa]

what about a FF cart game? that would be tits.

[Nesmaster]

THAT IS THE MOST AWESOME THING I HAVE SEEN ALL WEEK!

I......must.....play.....

I love double dash, but this is what it should have been

[Zubiac666]

man,I'm about to mail Nintendo my idea of releasing a port of this game(it uses the "Super Mario Sunshine"-engine btw) for gamecube which comes with a second disc including:
A playable demo of "Mario Kart DD!!"
the SNES "Super Mario Kart" (possible with enabled 4 player mode)
and the N64 "MArio Kart 64"

Like they did with limited "Zelda-Wind Waker (Pal version)"

Anyone with me?

[NintendoMan]

WOW, that's looks so cool and amazing!!!!

[davidbrit2]

The screenshots denote that it's a location test version, so I assume this isn't out yet. It looks pretty hot though. I can't tell from the pictures if it's got player cards like F-Zero...

You mean something like this

While Snake hasn't gone karting yet, Cyborg Ninja is a playable character in Konami Krazy Racers.

[NeoVenom]

Heh...this game looks awesome. It'z funny how the people put their picz as their icon on the game. If I see this game, I'll definately play it. I love racing games. ....well not all.

[Querjek]

I really hope that Nintendo and Namco port this to the Gamecube. It shouldn't be too hard, considering that the Triforce hardware is Gamecube-based.

EDIT: Oh yeah, this reminds me, Namco and Nintendo seem to be doing more and more joint projects. Hmm...

[joshnickerson]

I dunno if Nintendo will release this on the cube. I mean, two Kart titles in three years would probably be a bit much.

If anything, they might end up releasing an enhanced port on the Revolution.

Of course, knowing Nintendo, they'll prove me wrong and release it on the Cube anyway.

[Jive3D]

First - that looks fucking awesome. DD was decent, but not really a "Kart" game, it was more of a "buggy" game.

Second - the fact that it apparently uses a camera to take a picture of the actual driver (person playing the game) and morph their face with the character that they have chosen - is awesome! I'd have a lot of fun making funny face when they take that shot, or even better - digressing about 10 years here - putting my butt up when those shots are taken

Gamecube Port would be most appreciated.

How recent is this thing?

[Querjek]

How recent is this thing?

It was either announced yesterday or today. I'd say it's pretty recent

[MegaDrive20XX]

Where's my quarters? I gotta make a trip to Japan this week! Just damn!

[Drexel923]

If anything, they might end up releasing an enhanced port on the Revolution.

Thats what I'd like to see. Nintendo really needs to start off the next gen with a bang (a couple franchise titles) unlike they did with the Gamecube.

BTW...This game looks awesome
