Is Diddy in the game?

Sadly, he isn't. This also applies to Bowser Jr. and Waluigi. In fact, Mario Kart 7 is the first Mario Kart title since Double Dash!! to not have Waluigi as a racing participant.

I don't know if someone said it already, but why Waluigi isn't playable on the game ? :-\

My biggest guess is probably to focus more on characters that have appeared in at least one mainstream title. Waluigi does not meet that criteria.
 
Metal Mario as a Character did not appear in a Mainstream game.

Well he did originate from a mainstream game; Super Mario 64. If it weren't for the Metal Box, Metal Mario probably wouldn't exist right now.

Nintendo didn't invent the whole "the form and the character are separate" thing. That was the Wiki's idea.

Nintendo decided they wanted 4 new characters, and 12 returning. So then they applied the grandfather clause to everyone up till and including Super Mario Kart, which will give us 9 characters. Then they re-added download-play, which means Shyguy returning, this time as a full character because why the hell not. Then Nintendo realised they only had 1 female character and 11 males, so they added more females: Daisy and Rosalina. Then add the four new characters, and we have the roster of 16 (not counting Mii).

I hate that item. I wanted to use my star but was slighty off, so instead it threw a bob-omb in front of me that exploded in my face, destroying all remaining 6 items.
