    I popped that on for a few minutes myself. It's been so damn long since I played it, but I kind of got the same vibe. I also spent some time with SMW, Super Metroid, Puyo Puyo, Demon's Crest and probably something else I'm forgetting.

    I'd be completely down to get some old school Mario Kart going. Or anything else for that matter.

    No more monthly additions to the NES/SNES library according to Nintendo.

    Now they'll just update them whenever they feel like it.

    Oof. I'm not sure how I feel about that.

    On one hand, that could mean whenever they update it, we get more games per chunk. On the other, that could mean we'll get like 3 games every 6 months.

    I'm betting we see plenty of titles up until Christmas to beef up the line up as a selling point. Then we get nothing for months after that.

    Can't say Im surprised with this. Cuz I'd have imagined there would be some hurdles to cross before you could include more games in the future.
    Secret of Mana 1 and 2 are already sold separately on the Switch via the Mana collection. Then you have the Megaman X collection, Street Fighter collection, Contra collection, Castlevania collection. All of which have SNES games within them that they would be reluctant to give away for free with this service. Funnily enough, there's at least one game from each of the 5 mentioned collections, on the SNES mini already.

    So maybe this is just a thing where they need to work out licences or maybe allow the collections to sell for a longer period before they start cannibalising their own sales.

    Well hopefully theyre looking at this as a way to sell their, let's all admit it, shitty shitty online service. I'm thinking they just want more control over when precisely they release new content for the online classic consoles. Thereby giving them the flexibility to release more games for the service during periods they see getting the most out of it.

    In other words, times like now, the pre Christmas hype period when console manufacturers want to encourage people as best they can to plunk down 300 bucks for their system.

    Or maybe during a summertime dry spell in order to distract away from not having any must have games out at the time.

    A problem that plagues Nintendo all the time.

    Let me know if you want to try out some multi player SNES sometime soon. Mario Kart or some such. I wanna see how it works out. I'm on now.

    give me pointers as you get re-acquainted. are you releasing the accelerator often? should I hop/drift on turns?

    found some beginner tips for myself here...

    SMK works quite differently than the rest of the series when it comes to drifting. For most longer turns it's much better to hop hop hop hop instead because as I think you've noticed you will spin out if you drift for too long. Hopping resets the drift so you wont spin out as fast.
    Counter-steering when coming out of a drift is also an important technique which lets you align your kart much faster after taking a tight curve. Just turn in the opposite direction of the curve for a split second before letting go of the drift/hop button. It can take a while to get it right but it's a very neat trick.
    I also highly recommend using Koopa Troopa or Toad as they have the best handling in the game and handling > all in Grand Prix.
    I tried to find a good video on youtube demonstrating this but couldn't find any. If you still need help I could record one tomorrow or something.
    As for the moles; you can shake them off by hopping.

    Yeah that drifting thing is hard. Hopping with the shoulder button will let you turn sharply. But if you hold it for long at all you just spin out. Basically stick to Yoshi and Princess until you get better. They have the best acceleration so if you get hit a lot or spin out a bunch it won't matter as much.

    The fat guys, Bowser and DK Jr, are for pros. High speed but shit acceleration.

    Well yeah, of course its about controlling when they release games. I'm just giving a reason as for why they'd want to control it. Besides the more obscure SNES games, the most wanted ones are already for sale on their platform, so they're not gonna give them up for free so soon. Not having to release new games every month or so would buy them more time and also allow them to maybe come to an agreement with the licence holder of some of their SNES titles from the past.

    As for their "shitty online service", I can't really complain when you can get it for less than 1/3 of what the retail price for PSN and XBL currently is.

    Well basically when you’re in the SNES app you choose online play and then your friend can join you and then you can play 2-player split screen the same way you would have played split screen on a real SNES. So my guy was on the top and I could see RP racing on the bottom half of my screen.

    I’m not sure that 3 of us could play together. My assumption is not... it’s just 2 player. But someone correct me if I’m wrong.

    Just two on that game. I don't think games were really set up with more than two players in mind until the N64 came along.

    Anyway I thought it worked great. No lag or funny business on my end anyway. It was just like playing a normal two player game of Mario Kart.

    Fucking sweet really.

    SNES did have a multitap, but not a lot of games were released here that could use it other than sports games

    Of ones I recognize, it looks like Secret of Mana, Saturday Night Slam Masters, the Super Bomberman series, WWF Raw, Vegas Stakes, and Tiny Toon Wacky Sports Challenge were the only ones compatible. Probably nothing big or popular enough to warrant more than 2-playet capability.

    They came out with a Windwaker and Twilight Princess remaster on the Wii U. I imagine with enough time, those will come to the Switch. I also think there's a good chance we'll see at least one of the Super Mario Galaxy's make their way over. I'm skeptical about Mario Sunshine, but I get the general feeling Nintendo is trying to make the Switch a one-stop shop for all of their content, new and old.

    Regardless of the multitap discussion, Turtles in Time is a must for the SNES online. I don't care what licensing issues they have to battle through. That game is a SNES classic. I've spent so many damn hours on that game.

    Well, Arcade 1UP recently got the Turtles in Time license for their new cabinets so the SNES game license wouldn't be crazy.

    And the NES Turtles game was on the Wii VC at one point.

    OK I added you to my friend list.

    It looks like they've finally added a way to invite each other to play when we see each other online. I have no idea how well it works but the function seems to have been a part of the latest hardware update.

    Indeed we are.

    I was surprised with how many mirror courses came up in that session. It's funny, when I play with guys in the 2K ranking range, I find 100CC comes up too often. When we were playing in the 4K range, I thought mirror came up too often. I would like for it to always be 150CC standard if we're not going to let the users have any say in the matter.

    I fucking hate the 200cc tracks. Too damn fast and I'm having to brake on every corner. It sucks.

    200 doesnt come up in online play, though.... does it? at the higher levels? I would hope not. 200cc is very different. I dont even like that theyre putting mirror mode online in public rooms

    Yeah I think it comes up if the average VR points of the racers in a room is at a certain level. I'm not sure what actually clicks it on but the simple fact that you can't just choose your difficulty level/engine size from the get go is dumb.

    Aw I didn't even realise you were playing, sorry. I am so bad at online. I don't know how you cunts manage to win - any time I open up some sort of lead I end up getting destroyed by everyone behind me. My average finishing position is probably about 7th.

    Just takes practice, basically. I love this game so much that I had maybe 400 hours on it on Wii U. Probably 40 hours into the Deluxe version now. On Wii U I had my ranking so high (11,000+) that I was only playing with insanely good players, to the point where I decided to create a new Wii U profile so I could start over and face lower level players again (because it's more fun!).

    And sorry if this is obvious, but when you're in first there's nothing you can really do except always hold an item behind you (never give up a banana or shell if you have one), take your turns tightly (but not make any unforced errors) and hope for the best.

    You'll get there. Just keep playing and playing. It's impossible to consistently win online races when you're in a room with good players though.

    I think that new invite feature needs the older software titles to have an update in order to use it. So for now we just have to keep messaging each other on here.

    Same to you, man. I expected to get crushed by you, haha. It's also been a minute since I put this game on. I was gonna play with some friends last night, but apparently it wasn't still downloaded on my switch.

    If you'll be on for a few hours, I'll almost certainly be around to play at some point.

    I don't have the money for it right now, especially since I probably won't have any time to play it until like winter break.

    But I want it.
