Pearl and Marina Play Mario Kart 8 Deluxe: Rainbow Road Rage 🌈 | Hooked on Gaming

[@yumes_studio]

Thanks so much for watching! I've taken game suggestions from the last video but post more here, too! Let me know what your favorite moment was and tag me in your screenshots over on Twitter (@yumeparadox) or Instagram (@yumes_studio)!

I'm just loving your new series.

[@J_Lang]

Simply delightful!

[@J_Lang]

Yes, I want more! 😍

[@anniecaughey1667]

Fairly entertaining. I know this won't happen, but how about an episode where they play Friday night funkin? I think it could be fun.

[@laveen9415]

Breath of the Wild, Pokémon snap or Pokémon sword shield. Maybe even splatoon 2 as a finale or something I’m not sure. Animal crossing

[@lemonwedge]

Eights voice is way to cute we must protect her at all costs!!!

[@LoneWolf-mv9cd]

Aight, dat pose 8 made was definitely my favorite part. Imagine in Splatoon 3, Pearl, Marina and 8 posed together for the news.

[@RoseTheOcto]

I love the detail of Pearl using Smart Steering, it just seems like something she would do

[@sundae_z]

Yeah. Makes a lot of sense.

Smart Driving exudes strong Pearl energy.

I absolutely love the fact that in all of these episodes, Pearl just gets roasted over and over again by Marina and/or Ayano.

[@yumes_studio]

It’s too easy haha, but don’t worry what comes around goes around 👀

[@dominickmcyeeterson6352]

@@yumes_studio Maybe in one episode of Hooked on Gaming, Marina runs out of roasts for Pearl, so Pearl can roast Marina all she wants. Who am I kidding? DJ_Hyperfresh has roasts for days! Also, nice Zelda reference! Also, that sinister laughter from Marina was terrifying! Pearl, get out while you still can!

[@nintendash9943]

Marina chose galactic space princess! Aka rosa. I am so happy.

[@misahelrodriguez5131]

Rainbow Road tracks are so amazing that made me emotional and exciting.

[@yumes_studio]

So true!! 🌈

[@TheSuperstarGamer101]

This episode was so great, I don’t even know where to begin! Just seeing all the references and Marina being a tech geek made me smile all the way throughout the video! (That’s why she’s the idol I relate to the most :3) Great work Yume on making this episode, I really enjoyed it! 💚

[@yumes_studio]

It'a always a joy, thank you for watching 💚

[@J_Lang]

Heck, this is so good that I forgot this was a video and not real life. You did a stupendous job with everything: voice acting, editing and WRITING (great storytellingandhunor)! SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL, Yume! I love this!!!

[@yumes_studio]

Thanks so much, it was an arduous task but I wanted to bring them to life! Goad you enjoyed

[@mikuhoshina]

I loved this so much! All the references, the amount of rageeee and the overall wholesomeness from Pearl, Marina and Ayano! Ayano's little pose at the end made me smile and giggle and it was a great way to start off my morning! I will definitely be coming back to rewatch and laugh again! 💙 Since they played Mario Kart and raged, I want to see them play Super Smash Brothers....I think it would get quite competitive! I wonder how Pearl and Marina would react to seeing themselves or the Squid Sisters as Assist Trophies! I also can't wait to see Ayumi and Midori join 👀

[@yumes_studio]

Thank you for your feedback Miku! It was a joy writing for this episode and yeah, Smash Bros is definitely on the list especially since there was a Smash themed splatfest a awhile ago! It'll still be some time before 3 and 4 join but I also can't wait 💗

"Let's see how stable these servers are" Oh wait.... This is Nintendo Switch Online, they aren't any

[@yumes_studio]

LOL fair

[@sundae_z]

Ah yeah.

[@elicenyne]

love the visual novel style

[@cookiegary5803]

This was so good! The characters the trio chose to play fit so well! I just love how there's Pearl rage (it's not Mario Kart without rage, let's be honest here), Marina sass (and her geeking over tech, which is probably the most 'Marina' thing I've seen in a while), & Ayano being adorable! (especially with that 8 pose, that was definitely my fav part) Excited to see where this series goes next!

[@yumes_studio]

I love how Splatfests give us a look into their characters and so I wanted to continue that with this series! I love that Marina is such an enthusiast too haha Thanks for watching and I'm excited for this series as well 💖

[@fart676]

Ahh, classic MarioKart. From driving around Rainbow Road to ending friendships

[@Theglitchydrawer]

You give Marina And Pearl along with Ayano So Much Life! This was excellent yume keep up the good work!

[@yumes_studio]

Thanks glitchy! I'll continue to put more into the episodes :D

Pearl sounded like peridot when she lost on rainbow road.

[@sundae_z]

Omg your right!

HERE WE GO! (Revs engine, puts on shimmery rainbow racing suit and helmet) Edit: Woomy go zoomy

[@ilbnimtpent1619]

This was some good fun, and the hint of a bigger story at the beginning was really interesting. I hope can translate well to single player games if you ever try them out, would love to see them react to how the narrative in some games unfold.

[@yumes_studio]

Oh absolutely, there's plans for more story based games in the series! The overarching plot will be introduced little by little :)

Wow. This is very well done. Amazing and awesome and great voice acting too!! Great content and can’t wait for more!

[@geminidreik2608]

So, Mario's world and Splatoon's world are in the same universe here; Marina throws out references and pokes fun at Pearl like Goku with Beerus. Also, Pearl getting *Mariokarted* really hard. Makes me want to make a Splatoon OC to have fun like them. PS: Ayano's wholesomeness is an 8 out of 8.

[@yumes_studio]

Yeah, my whole theory is that all of the game universes could exist relative to each other since the characters can all be summoned into Smash :) And yeah, Pearl would be the one to pop off haha

[@yumes_studio]

Nah I doubt it, it's a whole separate universe just like with Zelda and others. It's not even that deep

I finally got my wish!!! You know I remember making a comment once about this. All the Splatoon tubers can get to together and make a big show about the first and second game and also make shows on the aftermaths of the both of them like inbetween Comics or like cartoons like at the beginning of the video. Think about it we could get animated art from the splatton artist same thing from the musicians,voice actors and some other factor that im forgetting.

Depends on how it'd go down but sounds interesting!

The voices for Pearl and Marina in the video are starkly different than the ones that I gave them in my head. For me, they sound more like their voices in the actual splatoon games. Pearl seriously sounds like Mabel, it’s so weird

The voices in game are under a flanger effect which I applied in my first ever dub and realized I didn't need it. But to each their own!

[@starietiger9927]

Bruh I wonder what their Pokémon teams would consist of. One of them would have a Loudred. Either Pearl would have an Obstagoon, or they'd have a Zigzagoon running around their mansion. Pearl, Amped Toxtricity. Marina, Low-key Toxtricity, and they both started off with a Toxel they were each given. Every other Pokémon can't be music themed. So what else would they have? Pearl, a Garchomp? Midnight Lycanroc? Marina, Milotic? Reuniclus?

That was an AWESOME episode! Great job as always, Yume! We definitely need Off the Hook and 8, as well as the Squid Sisters to be in Mario Kart 9! Also would it be cool to have a Mario Kart 8 stream with viewers? Just for a change of scenery? Showing off each others driving skills both kart and bike? Favourite moments - Marina's quote 3:48, friendly banter, the final race at Rainbow Road, Pearl's rage quit mid-stream and Agent 8's pose at the end was SOOOOOOOOO CUUUUUUUUUUTE! (I think I'm being a little dramatic... sorry.) Still Awesome work, Yume! You made our hearts bright with glee! I salute to ya! XD
