Europe gets Mario kart: Double Dash!! before America?! - Lee-yoshi - 08-10-2003
Every once in a blue moon does Europe get games first, because from Nintendos recent past, Europes come to terms with the fact we've gotta wait about 3/4 months, and maybe longer after their US release before released in PAL, (If we get them at all that is, not naming any games imparticular, LOL) but too my surprise, Nintendo's actually releasing Mario Kart: Double Dash!! in Europe before in America (According to all known release dates).
U.S. Release: 17th November 2003
E.U. Release: 14th November 2003
I know what ure all going too say, and thats, ITS ONLY 3 DAYS! But its a bloody start i tells ya! Cud we see a turning point, are Nintendo learning from their biggest fault?! *Crosses Fingers*

Err, did u say this ones got nuthin different from the last game?! Errm, have u even heard about this one, its totaly different, LMAO.
But thats not the point, i no its only 3 days now, but wot im saying is that at least we're getting it first, unlike millions of other games previously released, and since this is Nintendo's downfall and main reason y people are dissappointed in Ninty, have they learnt their lesson and decided to bring games out quicker here for us poor ol Europeans! Becos if so, theyll get a lot more sales, in the lead up 2 their new consoles in like 2005/6 or wenever it is!
Strategies u c!

okok, ill go through some of the things that r different from any other mario kart:
-Each player chooses 2 outta the 16 characters per race, as each kart now puts 2 characters on the same kart - one 2 race and one 2 collect and use weapons! U can change the charcater who races n uses weapons at anytime by pressin the Z button aparently!
-U can play up2 4 player at the sametime using one console or by connecting 2 gamecubes up using 2 Broadband adapters and connecting each gamecube up 2 a different tele, play up2 8 player in one race, hence using all 16 characters in the game at once!
-In America if u pre-order the game ull get a free bonus disk that coems with free demos of Mario Party 5 (U can play 5 mini games), Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, F-Zero (One track), and a couple of other games.
-Battle mode is different in someway im sure of that, but i cant remember how! lol
-And of course loadsa upgrades on audio quality and graphics!
Theres also loads more stuff but thats all the best things about it.
If u really want me 2 i can put sum pictures up here, and the link to the demo of it from E3 2003! But its gonna b SO much better then the 64 version, even tho it was a classic!
Remember, November 14th! GET IT!
Hmmm, i shud work for GAME, o wait i do, hehe! Thats gonna b so cool! Shame its only christmas temps
