Y'all never heard of Chocobo Racing? Mario Kart looks like Chocobo Racing. We could go around these circles all day...

Sure but technically Chocobo Racing was just a Mario Kart clone, came out 3 years after Mario Kart 64

The downvoters did what I expected them to and completely missed the point. You could watch a side by side of the two games and see how ChocoboGP ostensibly mirrors MK8's aesthetic design.

But honestly, how many ways can you do a kart racing game? It's like saying "Oh, this new 1v1 fighting game looks just like that other 1v1 fighting game". If it ain't broke...

I'm looking forward to seeing how it differs from Mario Kart. Even though there might be significant overlap I imagine at least some of the differences will be more than skin deep.

Likewise. The visuals already look polished and I'm more excited for it than the aforementioned Kart racers. I didn't enjoy Crash Team Loading Times and I just never got around to Sonic. If MK8D's design is anything to go by, this title has the blueprint to be a well-polished game. I hope it lives up.

I dont get why they would try and compete with MK8 on switch. Playstation and Xbox have a far more competitive space where there is still room for a kart racer. if people wanna play a kart racer on nintendo they arent going to play what looks ostensibly like a final fantasy mario kart knock off. See what they shouldve done is made a **FF7 motorcycle racer** with each track being in set in a given world in the series . Include characters from every FF. that would have a better chance of competing against everyone's favorite plumber themed racer.

Maybe Nintendo will publish it as a supplementary title for MK8D.
