Not really proper text chat.

sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but...

The text chat all of the websites are talking about is misleading. Apparently, Nintendo announced that they chickened out and went with a toontown-esque chat... You're going to have pre-set things to say, even to your friends. >_<

Well typing would obviously be impossible unless you're not racing at the time.

You could type your own pre-recorded messages like in Brawl.

Does Nintendo choose things for you to say? :huh:

As long as you get to type your own messages I'm okay.

I am pretty sure you do not get to type your own messages, and the messages are displayed BEFORE and possibly AFTER the race.

NOT during the race.

Is this where member title's go?
Nintendo really needs to modernize with online play. Microphones would be the most logical thing to do, however, they think that 1st time gamers wouldn't enjoy people owning them and trash talking them. I thought Nintendo was for everyone, not just 3 year olds and 83 year olds.
Save a spot for me on your ACCF friend rosters, I'm buying the game in 2 weeks.

Online gamers just need more integrity not to baste online newbs with trash talking.
