Triforcemaster3 Posted February 3, 2018 Author Share Posted February 3, 2018 15 minutes ago, XLW said: I know who's the perfect person to do that feat! Reveal hidden contents Midna. Although she did do that in the game by mistake, she still has the potential. Man those two have had an ugly past. I don't know how the Interlopers' management got those two to bury the hatchet. That might have been one of the single biggest developments of the NBL in 2017 because it really helped fuel the Interlopers rise from the Reserve League all the way to the Premier League. Like seriously, for years those two had to play on different teams...they refused to be in the same clubhouse. Quote Link to comment

Fuzzer1 Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 MKRA officials released a statement today announcing that “the driver lineups for each of the 11 new teams will be announced soon,” but wouldn’t give a specified date or time. Additionally, the report confirmed the new sponsor changes reported several weeks ago and the new official sponsors. Quote Link to comment
Fuzzer1 Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 It has been announced that ESPN’s F1 coverage will utilize the award winning commentary from the UK’s Sky Sports starting in 2018. Plans include certain pieces tailored for the American viewer as part of their new collaboration going forward. Here’s the official press release, provided by ESPN Media Zone: https://espnmediazone.com/us/press-releases/2018/02/espn-sky-sports-join-forces-formula-1-2018-world-championship/ The general consensus regarding commercial breaks is that spilt screen coverage will be used since Sky Sports’ coverage is ad free in the UK, similar to former free to air TV holder BBC and current FTA UK TV holder Channel 4, the former being a public broadcaster that relies on TV license fees collected by British viewers, a concept not used in America, and unlikely to be used anytime soon.

Link, the Hero of Dreams Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 There were discussions among updating the roster to include some characters by the time the next season came up. Jiren from Dragon Ball. Android 21 from Dragon Ball. Violet and Dash from Incredibles. Mike and Sulley from Monsters Inc. Colossus from Marvel. (Now that the Fox merger has begun.) But, ultimately, there were some brought up points regarding these characters. Jiren is not ultimately known as a team player, even though he fights in the Universal Survival Arc. He's very antisocial at best. Plus, he'd rather be meditating or sparring. Also, the Xenoverse 2 DLC Pack 6 is likely suspect, since it hasn't released yet. The other fighters from the tournament don't have any plans to be in video games yet. Android 21? Maybe later on in one of the next two teams, but... She's nothing really special. Dash's speed is ultimately too god-like. Plus, he's bit brash and a bit of a hot-shot. As for Violet, like Jiren, she did appear to be a little bit shy in the first Incredibles. Also, I don't think she would be for sports. A lot of superheroes and villains have been under question about their powers and their personalities. Not only that, but there's the Tolerance Policy to keep in mind. We've had tabs on many as well, but if there were too much, it would be too unfair for Nintendo's end. Disney's staying time here also caused some misfortune for the NBL when they took hold of Star Wars as well as Marvel, and this the problem because of that. One day, there could be discussion of one Star Wars, one Marvel, and one Dragon Ball team, since such has been made in football too, which could ultimately erase a few teams from franchises that don't need the extra teams. Back to Disney, Mike and Sulley were potential players, but were let go when the expansion happened. Whenever THE IIIrd comes out, we'll talk later. Colossus might return as well, since recent events now have made him more viable. But, the Deadpool 2 movie won't come out until the regular season starts. The teams won't change as of now.

Fuzzer1 Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 (edited) MKRA insiders have collectively said to NSN that with so many possible drivers out there, "narrowing the list down to 22 other drivers, plus what teams get those drivers, is impossible," noting that Delta Sarasaland Racing Team has their lineup from 2017 unchanged heading into the full competition after the Olympiad. Another insider said that "it's easier to report on sponsors and any changes between team sponsors and league sponsors than it is the drivers," owing to the fact that the various sponsors involved are easier to report than reporting on the drivers. Additionally the insiders also agreed that Fergie's rendition of the Star Spangled Banner at the NBA All Star Game last night was "terrible" and one added, "When even Roseane Barr herself wasn't a fan of Fergie's jazzy rendition of the anthem, you know how terrible it sounded."

Fuzzer1 Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 Delta Sarasaland Racing Team officials were asked about having to compete against a team sponsored by Emirates Airlines in the form of Emirates Skyworld and the ongoing debate regarding the claims they are subsidized by the UAE government and said that "any issues between the US airliners and Middle East airliners will not spill over into the MKRA season. We see them and the other teams announced as only competitors we need to beat throughout the season, nothing else." Racing pundits throughout the Nintendo Universe said that the amount of global sponsors impresses them saying that: "What we have here is a diverse list of companies of various types and from all corners of the globe being represented on the track. Also some companies like Corona, Dole, Target among others get some bonus points for creative team names in the list that make them stand out amongst the rest, though unless you're Delta Sarasaland Racing Team, everyone else is a new team with no racing history. The season should be fun to watch, especially with team rivalries set to build up over time." Quote Link to comment
Triforcemaster3 Posted February 25, 2018 Author Share Posted February 25, 2018 There was a late edit to the schedule and the race lineup on Saturday as without warning, Wario and Waluigi pulled out of the competition. We don’t know a lot of details at this time but reportedly they had some difficulties with their sponsors and funding they were promised did not come through. As a result they’ve elected to exit the competition for this season. The race at Wario Stadium Circuit has been pulled from the schedule, and has been replaced by DK Mountain Circuit, giving Kongo Jungle a 2nd race. The spot in the starting grid has been given to the 1st alternate team on the final list, the team of Conker and Banjo. Reports are that they will be sponsored by US cereal giant Kellogg’s.

Fuzzer1 Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 (edited) Wonder what caused the cash to not come through? Must be problems with Target we don’t know about. And of course Sarasaland lost their second race but hey at least it was replaced several months in advance. And with both Ford and GM being part of the series in some capacity too, that means three sponsors from my home state in the season. Michigan is well represented in the MKRA. LOVE IT!

Fuzzer1 Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 Looks like Uber went with the Hedgehog couple and not the Lawyers. Any details and is this list TRULY final? Quote Link to comment
Triforcemaster3 Posted February 26, 2018 Author Share Posted February 26, 2018 There was some more moving and shaking in the final roster list. Evidently the issues team Target Thieves was having has been rectified, and Wario and Waluigi are back in the MKRA for 2018. Also joining the final list are the team of Captain Falcon and Jody Summer, who will be sponsored by Chevrolet Quote Link to comment
Fuzzer1 Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 (edited) It has been announced that for the 18 teams competing, four companies have agreed to supply engines to the various teams this season. Chevy, Ford and BMW were logical given those three already are sponsoring a team and in the case of Ford, the official vehicle. That said it was announced that Honda would also supply engines to various drivers too to ensure that Japan also is represented in the series as Chevy and Ford represent the US and BMW represents Europe. That said, here are the teams and their engine suppliers: 1.Delta Sarasaland - Chevrolet 2.Petco Hedgehog - Honda 3.Jtekt Japan - Honda 4.Kroger Popstar - Ford 5.Amazon Plumber - Ford 6.Tesco Princess - Chevrolet 7.Corona Islander - Ford 8.CVS Fox - Chevrolet 9.Nasa Astronaut - Ford 10.Uber Lawyer - BMW 11.Coors Koopa - Ford 12.Dole Banana - Chevrolet 13.BMW Bigshot - BMW 14.Kelloggs They’re Great - Ford 15.Emirates Skyworld - BMW 16.Target Thieves - Honda 17.Chevrolet Top Driver - Chevrolet 18.Sherwin Williams Hyrule - Honda Here is the breakdown per manufacturer: Ford: 6 Chevrolet: 5 Honda: 4 BMW: 3 (Had the roster stay at 16, the plan was for each of the 4 manufacturers to support 4 teams each but that's not the case but oh well.)
