As per SM's request, here's my idea for this game's roster.

A smash roster that consists only of Mario Characters and Rob? BLASPHEMY

alright so i haven't seen this discussed yet

this is potentially big news

"THERE'S A DEMO A-COMIN!

I was talking to one of the Nintendo reps at WonderCon and she told me there would be a playable demo released on E-Shop sometime before the release of the game (not sure exactly when) that would be larger than the 3-track demo shown on the show floor."

ALL OF MY YES

Yes! ;D I was hoping they'd do that! ;D I thought they might since they did the same with the new Mario Golf title.
I'm going to use that demo every waking hour before the release. :P

Now time to practice power-sliding, shell-tossing, banana-laying and avoiding blue shells until May 30th.

BTW, confirmed controllers for MK8 so far.
-Wii U Gamepad
-Wii Remote/Plus
-Wii Remote and Nunchuck
-Wii U Pro Controller
-Wii Classic Controller/Pro
-Wii Wheel
Technically the Wii Wheel isn't a controller.

I really wish the Koopalings weren't in this game.
 
Re: Mario Kart 8

Any info about if the demo is legit, and if so, when it's coming out?

I really hope I can get it, but my Gamepad is out for repairs, and I can't use eShop. :(

EA probably would. I'm unfamiliar with game demos.

Nintendo isn't an ass like EA so I doubt they would charge money to play with demos. Demos SHOULD be free. The concept of a demo is to give a short free excerpt of a game to let potential customers know if they want to pay for the full game or not. Obviously paying money for a demo is against the concept from the very beginning.

Guess what? There's this thing called, "Not playing as characters you don't like". Isn't that fascinating and extraordinary?

He means the Koopalings are a waste of 7 characters slots.
 
Re: Mario Kart 8

So, you have, what, still 20 characters to use from?

23 to be specific (well, at least afawk). :P

While I don't like the Koopalings over some potential characters, I just know that all the characters I play as 90% of the time are in it (being Baby Mario and Rosie).
 
Re: Mario Kart 8

Well, with Nabbit's announcement for Golf, do you guys think he'd appear here?

Personally, I'd like to have him over a reskin like Dry Bowser. He'd be one of my mains to, aside from Waluigi and Shy Guy at least.

Re: Mario Kart 8

If he does make an appearance, he'll probably use his emblem from NSLU.

(I really hope he's playable tbh, I'd main him in a heartbeat as well)
 
Re: Mario Kart 8

I think it's likely that if Mario Golf's DLC goes well Nabbit will probably be a DLC character and Nabbit will then be, as GameXplain stated, Nintendo's posterchild of DLC, especially considering that there are some Mario Kart veterans not yet announced that will probably take up the last 3 spots. Actually looking at the leaked character select screen there is a bigger gap between the box with the character mugshots and the bottom of the screen than the top, so maybe that's where DLC characters will fit in? With this logic there will probably be a maximum of 5 DLC characters and the Mii in the possible 6th row?

Nabbit would be cool, I think.

Amusingly, Nabbit is a DLC character for Mario Golf: World Tour. Who's to say that he'll be racing as well?

Re: Mario Kart 8

Nabbit appearing would not be a surprise.
