May I ask where your proof is that they have a shot?
If it exists in the Mario universe, it has a shot. Hell, recent DLC additions show that anything in the Nintendo universe has a shot (as much as it makes me cringe)

Want more proof? OK. King Goomba (who debuted in an RPG) was a boss in Mario Kart DS. Oh, and Baby Peach... um, yeah. If you really want to count her, she debuted in Partners in Time. It's not out of the question, especially if they're versions of mainline characters (A trait Baby Peach shares with the characters I mentioned a few posts up)
 
Re: Mario Kart 8

Goomboss was in Mario Kart DS, Dark Bones was in Super Sluggers, the Star Spirits were in Mario Party, and Baby Peach has appeared in several titles since. That's why I'm open to more.

However, those are isolated incidents. That's why I know that an RPG character not named Baby Peach has very slim chances.

Ok, they have a shot, but not a large one. Their priority is fairly low. Every Mario character does debatably have a shot, but I would wager dollars to donuts that characters like Wanda and Foreman Spike will never appear in Mario Kart. Most RPG characters are on the same level.

The dlc doesn't mean anything really. It's three special guests from other games and three existing characters with different costumes. Pretty much just a bonus.

The only reason that King Goomba appeared in MKDS was because he was put into SM64DS and I believe every boss from SM64 also made it into MKDS. Have we received any other elements from RPG games other than those 2? Also every MK character has been in some other game except PGP and Baby Rosalina because they are new, and all MK characters have appeared in a 3D environment game.

I read that there's a Double Dash option in Mario Kart Arcade GP DX, but I've searched for pictures and videos to no avail. Has anyone here seen any of that?

besides dark bones isn't an rpg-based character, it was originally called red bones and its design looks nothing like the rpg dark counterpart

I haven't played it.
