Re: Mario Kart 8
You're right about Rosalina, but I thought King Boo had more appearances, but I could be wrong. Anyway, actually this proves my point even more. If one appearance can get a character in, then there is no excuse not to add some fan-favorites who haven't gotten in yet and seem to have no chance.

This. I think that also is why they included Honey Queen, because they saw the popularity of Rosalina and tied it back to Super Mario Galaxy and wanted another character to introduce into the MK series, and probably settled on Honey Queen.

Re: Mario Kart 8
and there's a lot more where that came from.
What makes Rosalina any more special than these popular, but neglected, characters?
The same goes for a crapload of other one-shotters. Let's see...Toa 95 said:

she was part of the main-focused series.
you'd think people would get it through their heads already that nintendos least concern is their rpg characters which arent even made by nintendo in the first place.
that and the fact that they seem to be throwing out a ct scenario for spin-offs.

Re: Mario Kart 8
Fawfulthegreat64, please stop bring up the topic about the RPG character debate.
It's honestly getting annoying now, because this is not a topic for it, as this is about the upcoming Mario Kart game for the Wii U, not whether one shot characters like RPG characters will appear in more than just their own games.
And yes, many of them are impossible to include due to shared companies like Alpha Dream and Square Enix. So you're wasting your breath right now because in order or some of those characters to be in this game, those companies must also allow that character in, and it's hard to do that because those companies can't make money off of it because this is a Nintendo-only game, or they aren't apart of it at all.

Re: Mario Kart 8
Look, I'm not going by whether I like a character right now. I'm going by the fact that they indeed have large fanbases and it is biased on Nintendo's part to only focus on one section of the Marioverse when it is so much more vast. I understand the other company thing, but the only one I've heard so much ruckus about is Square-enix with SMRPG characters like Geno. The other two (IS and Alphadream) work with Nintendo only. They could easily work something out. I'm using logic right now. They have many fans, are part of the Marioverse, and should, by logic, be considered, especially when characters with one appearance have clearly gotten in. I'd say this even if my favorite character was not one of them. I'm not fanboying, I am using perfectly good logic and everyone seems to be pointing an accusing finger at me.
The discussion turned to character appearances,
I gave examples of characters who should be considered,
and I get blasted with "you're so annoying, you say this all the time even though you clearly haven't brought it up much at all in the past 3 days, shut up"
Honestly when will I not get this response when I state my honest thoughts on a subject?
How about we change the subject since every opinion but mine seems to be taken seriously.

Re: Mario Kart 8
I'm not sure if Rosalina is more special than those characters you brought up, but there are many factors about her that just called people's attention. She was the new human, she was very, very well designed in terms of physique and background, she was different from the rest of the Mario gang in terms of basically everything, including her attitude, her voice, etc. Besides, she was pretty "badass" in the context of being a new princess who had magic powers instead of being another damsel-in-distress. Many factors made Rosalina so popular. And, like Zae said, she's part of the main series.
