Re: Mario Kart 8

This roster is far too small, not to mention only two newcomers and still no rpg characters

1 - You need to chillax about the rpg character stuff; it's one thing to hope to see it, it's another to constantly moan and ache about your desire to have it every single chance you got.

2 - The roster isn't that small; it's 24, just like MKW, which had the most MK characters to date. I do expect more, but 24 wouldn't be surprising.

3 - I agree for the most part with your guess, but Boom Boom and the Pom Pom are a no no. I would be very dissappointed with Nintendo if they did that, and they don't even make sense for them to be in the game.

^This please. I don't take your posts seriously because of all the 'RPG Characters > Everything' posts you spew all the time. I know that you like Fawful and the other RPG-only characters a lot and that you want them playable despite the odds of them being in and i respect that but it does get annoying hearing it a lot.

I don't mind that roster but I don't really care too much about the rosters in games (except maybe Smash Bros).

well sheesh, you guys are starting to sound like those Gamefaqs people now, it's only an opinion, and I never said they were tons better than anything else on the whole planet, also i used strikethrough for a reason, to casually joke about it. I've seen others do that with their personal opinions too, no need to go off about it

about the size of the roster, I expect Wii's to be doubled, considering the power of Wii U, I don't want minimal increase, I want huge increase, or make up for it with DLC.

It is somehow correct since there is a space that can be easily replaced with a RPG counterpart. For the others I'm neutral with it, no need to be serious or opposed. But remember, too many complaints are of no avail.

I like boom-booms, but I don't see them here, for being minor species while many notable characters are waiting in the first row. Not even to say both genders.

As I mentioned in the last page, don't think the power of new consoles or DLC work too much, due to the refinement of characters or Nintendo's laziness. You already see what NSMBU is.

Suppose that it's 7 to be doubled, I think 25~35 is a more possible range.

Re: Mario Kart 8

No. There comes a point where there's too many characters, and almost fifty is definitely too many. That's the problem with just about every fan roster I've seen - there's just too many characters.

I wouldn't be surprised if Nintendo went for less than 24, honestly, and neither would I be disappointed.

It's tough to be realistic when you take into account how much memory a Wii U ISO can hold. However, a lot of retail games that I've seen for the Wii U don't even exceed the size of the Brawl ISO.

Re: Mario Kart 8

Few data facts.
A normal Wii disk can hold around 4 GB. Double layer Wii disks can even hold up to 8 GB.
Wii U disks can hold 25 GB iirc.

Re: Mario Kart 8

You know what character would make a fantastic addition to any spin-off roster. Goomba, and only the most generic one, no hats or accessories.

I already said I respect that its your opinion, just that you say it too much too often. I wasn't just talking about that single post, I'm talking about them as a whole. A strike through on a single post within a plethora of them doesn't change how often it comes up in your posts. I was just pointing it out because I was getting irritated by it, if you could post about how much you want rpg characters within spin-offs less frequently I'd appreciate it. You don't have to, but it'd be nice if you did just leave it out if you've already mentioned a few times in the topic before. Sorry if I sounded like I was angry at you, that wasn't what I was trying to imply.

Well, it is habit, but I'll try to cut down on it.

We know it's your opinion but you keep repeating it as if we're deaf, dumb, and blind.

Re: Mario Kart 8

I think Lubba and Toadsworth would make awesome additions. Oh, and E. Gadd too!

Re: Mario Kart 8

I think Toadette and Daisy would be starter characters. Announced at trailer reveal.

Re: Mario Kart 8

Yeah, I am sick and tired of seeing Daisy unlockable, she's my favorite princess but why unlockable?

kinda reminds me of fortune street

daisy was a starter and peach wasnt, which pissed me off.

The worse part is that you can't even play as anyone other than your stupid Mii in single player. Da bleeping BBQ? What the hell is the point of having so much characters if you can't even play as them in single player mode?

Fortune Street also reinforces my hatred for Miis. If Miis were never created, we wouldn't have soggy buffalo chips like this.

The best part is seeing Mario talk.

"I'll help you find your cookies, Yoshi - just give me a second to brush these cookie crumbs out of my mustache!"
"Not to look a gift Yoshi in the mouth, but I was hoping for more coins…"
"Rolling the die is just one of my many special talents!"

But anyway, there really isn't any point in making Daisy unlockable. In Mario Kart 7, Wario just HAD to be unlockable because of his stinking friend, Koopa Troopa. I bet Wario and Koopa Troopa made a pact which simply delays Wario's inevitable doom. Wario is unlockable in Mario Kart 7 just to piss me off, I bet.

Re: Mario Kart 8

We have talk alot about the characters in the game, but what about the actual content in the game?

You know usually we have the Grand Prix, Time Trails and Quick Match...the last one was removed from the game in Mario Kart 7 what make me sad because the online never pick the specific track i want to play and play my favorite course in Mario Karts is what make me happy.

With luck we can see the return of the offline races, along the missions, yes that mission mode, in MKDS was nice and in Mario Kart Wii we had ONLINE missions (Giant Pokey was my favorite one), we can have again the mission?, maybe with the koopalings as bosses this time (IGGY WITH CHAIN CHOMP FTW)

If there was a City Trial-like mode like in Kirby Air Ride, cry me a river and I'll cry with you

No, yes, and maybe.

You saw fans about Honey bee, and I think Lubba would only get more hate. Toadsworth would be great, but it all depends on balance and such. Gads I could see, but at the same time I have doubts.

From the beta elements of MKW, I do feel like Hammer Bro. Will be appearing in this one. They may also put back in Petey Piranha, which would be cool.

Blooper's an item again, so he's not going to be playable (damn it).

Ya never know. They got Lakitu in MK7.
