It's not the very first time to have this topic. First, they're not individuals, second, now since Nintendo is willing to pay attention to other major koopas (Koopalings+BowserJr,), they don't have time to take care of them in spinoffs . The best chance is that they may be treated like other...

Simply because Bowser's need for own games doesn't seem more important than others' need, honestly. I don't refuse to see that, though The arcade/console arguement is kinda boring. Some other regulars had even fewer appearances in those games.

That's not a clear definition, honestly. Toad and Peach can also be considered supporting characters before they actually become playable in later mainstream games. If the others have to stick to that role, they may provide "support" more often whenever they should. Uh... that's abit like pot...

I'm not sure where the statistics was from, but if that's true, that only means they need more other games to be in.

> Captain Toad is on its way he's pretty much the only one left of the main cast who doesn't have a game to call entirely his own. :daisy: > HUH? To be realistic, yeah, it would be nice to see Bowser as a playable protagonist instead of a boss. But judging from the fact both him and Toad have...

What the previous titles bored me with is that this series is very restricted. I like the fairyland and minirobot idea (though it may conflict alittle with Party games), but judging from the name it's just solely selling Mario and DK, not making some in-depth crossovers based on both original...

I know many other competitors or Nintendo themesleves have plans for cartoon series, but it really depends on their own rules and backstories. Some may even be controversial, for example, Pac-Man and Sonic have been tried to use different backstory canons that not all old fans would easily...

Problem is, if they can make it here then it should be done first in those sport spinoffs.

Kinda weird opinion. Even though the newest WiiU can't read GC discs anymore, I don't think getting an old game would be much better than a new one, no matter how bad the new one is. Unless you wish for a Sunshine 2. > more playable characters Oh, who said a new game can't do this? :-X

Re: More official "costumes" --- character texture swaps? It's more like the same character has two movests, not one moveset has two characters. :P

I know it's somewhat like Nintendo and Miyamoto's illness/realness, but I'm still surprised that only very few games released since 3DS generation can really interest me or persuade me to buy the consoles. My exceptions are the Kart games. In marketing views, the major titles were released in...

Re: More official "costumes" (character texture swaps)? Sorry, I don't think most fans would regard that as a real character swap. Didn't you just go to this thread?：http://www.marioboards.com/index.php?topic=29983.0

Re: Mario Kart 8 I would simply regard racism issue as a need of international market. If Nintendo think this works, they'll introduce such kind of new characters. However, the rosters have been sucks for having a bad selection from existed characters, not from those who even never exist in...

Re: Mario Kart 8 I would say that Camelot Sport games should be with skincolor issue, because there are tons of minor human characters but we can hardly see more cultural backgrounds. For Mario series, the characters have been iconic for a long time, you can't change their iconic appearance to...

Re: Mario Kart 8 My opinion is that some RPG characters have too many backstories that don't fit in a normal Mario spinoff. In other cases there are also characters with very simple background that new fans don't even have to know that. For example, we just have to know that Gourmet Guy is just...

Re: One model for more than one player? Bump for a current need of discussion.

Re: Mario Kart 8 Much agree. For now the Kart 8 roster lacks the diversity that Kart Wii could give us. Those infamous addtions from Kart 7 don't really help this. Diddy doesn't have to return since he had been in previous two home Karts, but neither does Dixie nor King K Rool takes his place...

Excluding the joking part, though Daisy is also the one who lacks more mainstream game appearances, I don't really think she has to be featured in Waluigi-related games. She should have been in those Luigi titles. Meanwhile, since Waluigi could have done more things with Wario games, there are...

May I honestly say that Galaxy is already something like that? I personally want to see a new full 3D nonlinear game that has a brandnew story and theme.

:???:? The only available characters from Slugger was King K.Rool, since it didn't introduce some other individual kremlings from Barrel Blast. But nine of the Bowser's troop are playable, I don't see why other enemies can't enter this competition.

Not a positive way to refute. Both characters are based on a specific type of game referrence, but both haven't got important role in their respective game, which is another problem from Nintendo. Generic human athletes looke more like the answer. They correspond to that game type and can be...

In Archie Comics' case, they stick more to their own canon and still decides which other game/cartoon media story fits in. Maybe Cosmo's story fits in the world of Archie, but as result she didn't appear. I chose not to watch Sonic X series mostly because the plot writers using Chris (and other...

I don't think this topic has to do with sport spinoffs. Even though Fawful did have multiple appearances, again it's somewhat different from the denifition of "being regular". Even that Nintendo finally make RPG characters connect with sport games, Mario's fighting partners would be more like...

Unless one of the two companies give up Olypmics, for now it seems like Olympics 2016 is still coming. Sally is one of the notable cases in the complex Sonis history. Though the X animation series is based on official canon, unlike comics or the upcoming Boom, it also added many...

Halfly the reason should be more like the unchanged roster, not gender bias. It's actually strange that both genders participate in most real-world Olympics sports. Now this game series give us a very bad gender ratio that is unable to reflect the real world. Also many important female...

Until the day Nintendo directly buys other companies, I don't think a second representive from series of 3rd companies should be considered. Sonic Boom is another topic within the Sonic fanbase.

The current problem is more like we doubt why Rosalina is confirmed. If both Rosalina and Daisy are confirmed, the quesition would be too many Marioverse characters.

Re: RPG Representation As disucssed many times, I think there are two points that we should remember in mind before this topic: 1, If SSB can have Mario RPG characters, so can Mario spinoffs. After all, spinoffs can offer more seats for Mario characters than SSB. If RPG characters can't appear...

The question is if you wish to put Baby Waluigi in this topic, we can be sure that all adult human/kong characters (that includes Pauline, Gadd, Rosalina, Candy and so on) had their baby time and should be discussed here. For not being controversial it's better to discuss official babies only...

Sorry, I think that's two different story. If SE can bring back SMPRG characters then Nintendo can also bring back other original one-time RPG characters, which is something they obviously rarely do. In this case I only indicate that Square Enix may have used the real protagonists from their...

Compared with its prequel I see nothing ok there, sorry. And it doesn't really matter if there are 3rd party characters. To me it's more like SE didn't put their popular protagonists there.

Even all characters that have been Kart games so far appear in one game, there are still many who haven't been in this series. Just hope Kart 8 newcomers won't let us down again. Well my own criticism is there should be Warioware crew and Koopalings in these teams.

Then there is no perfection. You're trying to make something subjective, not objective. Some fans love Fawful, some love Ashley, and some love Baby Luigi. If you'd like you make them happy then every character has to be in this roster. (oh, and you put goomba instead of Goombella so I give you...

It's more like there are many current bosses whom Nintendo don't really make good use of. Not saying anything against Wart, but he doesn't need to return if just regarding this topic. I just wish to see recurring bosses in the same stage that can compete with Bowser in any occasion. Wario and...

More precisely, a new title for a current console.

Very true. He would indeed have interesting gameplay feature. Even though I don't wish him or Toon Link to be in this game, at least Paper Mario had a NEW game during the interval. I still wish to see subseries representives that have independent backstory and personalities.

Well before those, a princess of dessert seems to be the biggest question mark. It's indeed a pity that the dream world didn't make good use of references from the prequels.

Well that doesn't mean we can't have more rivals and bosses in this series, and perhaps we actaully lack them. Wario and King Boo are good examples. For RPG villains, usually they have more backstories to tell but these have to be told intensively. They're portrayed to be more vicious than the...

Uh, I'm not saying blood-relations. I mean that they're basically based on the same species named "kremlings", compared with Bowser's troop which have many kinds of species which are all based on turtles from real world. Koopa Troopas have the lowest level among all koopas, but as the topic...

Well it's kinda weird that kremlings are both the bosses and the minions in their troop, while goombas are the smallest minions in Koopa Troop. Unless DK series come up with a new type of minons that can differentiate from KingK.Rool and his relatives, I don't think it makes sense.

Well if Nintendo want a character playable they'll use all kinds of ways to make it happen. In this case (RPG-oriented characters), I just say Kersti has a larger chance if Nintendo want to promote the latest title. But for the ones that deserve it, I'd choose Parakarry and Starlow. And I'm...

Uh.... though I'm not against Kamek, like you said there are already nine from Team Bowser. Bad for him, he could have been in Kart 7.

Sorry, I don't have any faith in a character who is obviously exclusive to certain game for plot needs, no matter what kind of game they come from. If Nintendo is willing to do so, one of them must have returned in the newest title. In this case, Kersti looks like the most possible choice...

If we're not regarding the subseries, there could only be Mariobros, Peach and Bowser, while Wario and Diddy would be definitely absent from this game. Rosalina is still debatable in both cases.

Do you include the subthems from Mix Sports or Olympics? Or you want to create a brandnew game system as a single game?

Should I worry about him, or just regard this as a curse from anti-Rosie fan?

You're talking nonsense, aren't you? Suppose that Wario series is coherent, it should also be nice to see Warioware crew participate in the next Wario platformer. I don't know why we have to make it clear there are "land characters" and "ware characters". There are indeed some potential...

That still counts as personal background in a narrow sense, and more important, it's not doing with her connection with the Mario series or characters.

Physical story aspect, not personal background. Daisy and the others have well described relationships but lacks story to develop. OTOH, though Rosalina appears in SMW3D and the upcoming SSB4, she appears individually and has no interation with the protagonists or the main story.

Nobody ever said we expect for a clone, if they really are :???:. It's Nintendo's duty who can create stories for characters in order to make them more unique. So creating a new character doesn't mean they don't have to take care of the rest. Now Rosalina only had her background. She still...
