Absence in Mario Kart 8

[Jamster93]

How come Diddy Kong and Bowser Jr not in Mario Kart 8?

 

[Glitchy Bowser Jr.]

Nintendo decided not to. I really wish Bowser Jr. was playable, though.

Time constraints? Just not planned at all? Deviously planned s DLC exclusives? The world may never know.

A Luigi-themed course.

No, Twisted Mansion doesn't count.

I... er... don't relly see how this fits the topic.

wario colosseum.

I feel like a Luigi-themed course is absent in Mario Kart 8. Thus, it is, to me, an Absence in Mario Kart 8.

Ah. I figured the op meant just the two characters mentioned.

Or maybe he did, I don't know.

 

[Glitchy Bowser Jr.]

A Luigi-themed course.

No, Twisted Mansion doesn't count.

Maybe if the game released in 2013 instead.

Maybe ask Iwata Miyamoto for the answer.

 

[Lumastar]

A course based on the Dream World from Mario & Luigi: Dream Team would have been cool.

Wait, Bowser Jr. wasn't in Mario Kart 8?
It's probably because of all the Koopalings.
