Mario Kart 9 - What It Should Be Like

I think we all know I want Pauline playable.
 
i agree , Coconut Mall is an awful track just like Shy Guy Beach.

If we get any HD remake of a MKWii track it should be Mushroom Gorge or the Rainbow Road which to me is still the best in the series.
 
I love Coconut Mall. Easily ranks among my favorite Mario Kart Wii tracks.
 
Coconut Mall is tied for my favourite track in the series with Electrodrome, but I doubt it'll be coming back again any time soon since it reappeared in Mario Kart 7, the same for Mushroom Gorge. I reckon Toad's Factory is probably the most likely course from Mario Kart Wii that hasn't reappeared yet to come back as a retro course next time, potentially Dry Dry Ruins and/or Moonview Highway too... though Daisy Circuit is by far the track I most want to see in HD.

I thought I was the only one that liked the Mario Kart Wii Rainbow Road! Of the six I've played (Double Dash, Wii, 7, 8 and the retro SNES and N64), it's definitely my favourite in music, appearance and how fun it is to play on. Glad to know I'm not the only one!

I love all of these except Shy Guy Beach. What's your beef with Coconut Mall?
 
We're going to get Super Circuit's Rainbow Road (which I'm very biased for because Super Circuit was my first Mario game) at the end of Lightning Cup, based on the pattern so far. And if there's DLC, we might get that blasted SNES one again because Nintendo seems to be addicted to that one.

The SNES one is great, just not as great as the N64 one.

I love the SNES as well, but the way they butchered the N64 version is awful. I was looking forward to a long peaceful race, like in the original, but they took away the lap race. Idiotic.
 
it kinda bothers me that MK8 was gonna be some sort of MKWii HD during the demos and beta stages but then it turned out to be very different.

Dont hate MK8 but i honestly look back at some early footage and some things looked way more interesting.

For MK9 i hope they go baaaack to something closer to the chaotic feeling of MKWii plus better voice overs and items , something MK8 lacks greatly.
 
Hopefully the next Mario Kart installment has a cute-looking kart body that excels in acceleration.
