Re: Mario Kart Wii U

I also want Mario Kart DS's Mission Mode to return, with bosses and everything.

I fully support this idea.

So do I.

Anyway, in my mind, Lakitu is the character who puts you back on the racecourse after you have fallen out, nothing else. That's why I didn't like it when he was a character in Mario Kart 7.

I was afraid I would be stoned to death if I said this, but those were my exact thoughts. I didn't like Lakitu being playable either.

Me too. Although I enjoyed playing as Lakitu, he felt out of place as a playable character in Mario Kart.

I thought it was fine having him there. But I obviously have bad taste in characters if I didn't mind Honey Queen and Metal Mario.

I disagree with the saying that referees can't be playable. The wrong part should be that Lakitu is even not a character.

Joins the club. (and I would add I like Metal Mario)

Personally, the only newcomer from MK7 that should return is Wiggler. The only one I liked to play as.

Honey Queen/Queen Bee was just out of place and didn't belong there, Metal Mario felt like a clone, and Lakitu should not race, IMO.

To some people, the term "generic" doesn't seem to ring a bell. The Lakitu referee may just be generic.

Well, there are generic or nongeneric referees in Mario games. I personally don't support generic referees either (like the one in Party 9), but referee is not a criteria for being playable.

Re: Mario Kart Wii U

Am I the only one who wasn't bothered by Honey Queen being a racer? I mean, she's unique, not a species, and while kind of irrelevant, I think she was a rather nice adition. I don't agree her taking Waluigi's place, though. Although I hate Waluigi, I think he deserved his place more than Honey Queen.

It may be because I'm a Galaxy fan, though. I know she only appeared two times in the whole game, but still.

Initially, I was bothered by her appearance, but now, I want her to appear in this game.
