Re: Mario Kart Wii U

I hate generic enemies. Most of them. They're really bland and boring.
 
Re: Mario Kart Wii U

I think Hammer Bro is deserving, but I don't want a normal and winged version of the same thing. I don't want Boo if there is King Boo who is a better choice anyway. Goomba is deserving but I'd likely find it funny seeing one try to drive.

But (sorry if I'm repeating myself) I want an RPG character. Very badly. Someone like Fawful would really increase the fun, as I'd be playing as my favorite character. Add whoever else you want (except Honey Queen, ugh) but please give the RPG's at least one rep!!! Again, sorry that I'm throwing this around way too much, but I feel very strongly about this.
 
Re: Mario Kart Wii U

If any RPG character other than Fawful appears, I'm am off to Nintendo to punch them.

But yes, I understand your point there.

I want the Lightning Bolt taken out. It annoyed me all the time in Mario Kart 7.

That item isn't going anywhere though, as it's a staple in the Mario Kart series.
 
Re: Mario Kart Wii U

The Lightning Bolt's effects sucked post Mario Kart DS

Is it because the Thunderbolt's duration is now shorter for those who are trailing a race?
 
Re: Mario Kart Wii U

That basically renders it useless when you're in 12th place, since the 11th place person recovers far too quickly for you to overtake them

And no offence dude but Toadette is most likely being removed from the series.

I'd be surprised if Nintendo completely forgot about the Kong family (not counting Donkey Kong, Diddy Kong, and Cranky Kong) and the Kremling Krew along the way.
Except the case of DK Jr who has a contradictive problem in backstories, no character should be randomly taken away. On the other hand, it's determined by whether they should be in more games.

We expect new DK mainstream games to have more playable kongs like it before. In spinoffs, I'd see Dixie or King.K Rool playable in Kart 8 this time, but at least kong family must appear together in the next Baseball/Football game or DK has nowhere to go.

Toadette is a completely weird case. Besides spinoffs, we do see Nintendo need more recurring toads in NSMB and 3D games as NPCs or coplayers, which makes no sense for her to be removed.

RPG characters have personalities and are more memorable than generics. Also, the RPG's need to finally get representation.
Nope, they need to stay in their own game. We only need generic characters
And species enemies should stay in NSMB, in the same word. There is no restriction for a Mario character being playable. Don't refute without words if someone has a better opinion.
 
Re: Mario Kart Wii U

Was it confirmed that it will be another Sonic game? I was under the impression it would be a three game agreement with Sega, with Sonic: Lost World and MASATSWO as the other Sonic game and mystery third game (was thinking it might be F-Zero since Sega made GX iirc, which was the last console F-Zero game).
 
Re: Mario Kart Wii U

Yeah, Nintendo can only publish Sonic games for now. (Bayonetta doesn't count)

Take it as a rumor, but apparently the next Mario Kart game is actually some kind of Mario Kart vs. Sonic All-Stars game.

Uh, I thought this rumor was about a different game. I mean it's not the actual Kart 8 we were talking about.

And I don't really believe it since SEGA already have their Allstars Racing recently. It should be made in later years after we become tired of SEGA Racing.

Well, the title just says "Mario Kart Wii U" and that crossover would be half-Mario Kart and it would be for the Wii U.
And I think it's just starting development, and All-Stars Racing is already a year old, so a 2014 date seems likely.
 
Re: Mario Kart Wii U

Oh god no...
I really hope that we get a mario only game as well if it is real...

Where does it read that? I don't see it.
 
Re: Mario Kart Wii U

I REALLY don't want a Mario & Sonic crossover with Mario Kart. This means that Baby Luigi has a chance to get scrapped in favor of crap.
 
Re: Mario Kart Wii U

And we don't want a replay of the old Mario Kart games which only had 7/8 characters :(

Cool down, I know he is your favorite character.
Anyway, I hate crossovers. I wanna see an original game.

Why would that happen?
 
Re: Mario Kart Wii U

I would have absolutely no problem with this whatsoever if it was true.

Assuming you mean the Sonic crossover thing, you do know it could mean no new Mario characters, right?
 
Re: Mario Kart Wii U

Yep. There's no new characters that I absolutely would love to see added, so that's not going to bother me.
