Mario Kart 7

[Propeller Toad]

Queen Bee and Wiggler do seem to be pulled from nowhere; however, remember that nothing is still confirmed yet.

However, you do have to take into account that literally nobody was expecting Metal Mario and Lakitu's inclusions in a Mario Kart game (perhaps a little for the latter, but not much for the first). Queen Bee and Wiggler seem to be possible and random newcomers like the former two.

 

[Koopaul]

Probably the worst idea ever to include Queen Bee. She's not even that prominent in the Galaxy games.

 

[YamiHoshi]

My new favourite would be Queen Bee.
I mean, what's better than leaving other people no way to pass me, because she's so fucking giant?

Queen Bee and Wiggler...........Oh hell no Nintendo

i hope this isnt true

 

[Lily x]

Surley Candy kong would get in before queen bee inb4Dorayaki.

Seeing as it came from a Nintendo Power issue, the info is probably true. Also, the Queen Bee being too big is a feeble excuse, as Bowser has had his size adjusted for spin-offs.

 

[Mijzelffan]

I was kinda expecting Wiggler, he also appeared in mario power tennis, but queen bee? That seems a little far fetched.

Also, I'd like to see some screenshots of this magazine before we accept it as fact.

 

[Mariorules25]

Yeah me too,as it wont be a fact if it showed a picture of them

 

[New Super Mario]

Queen Bee? Sure she's fuzzy and cute, but kart racing?

I'm okay with Wiggler though. I was really hoping for E. Gadd or Petey.

EDIT: Also, where's Bowser Jr.? It's about time he's confirmed

 

[Mariorules25]

Im worried that Bowser Jr won't appear again

other than mario and sonic and MP9

 

[YamiHoshi]

Fun fact: Bowser Jr. never appeared in any Mario Party to date.
They were all Mini Bowsers.

Console-wise yes, but he was an antagonist in Mario Party DS.

 

[Lily x]

True.

 

[MnSG]

At least Queen Bee would be the very first female to be in the heavyweight category. Rosalina is tall, but she's more of a middleweight, just like Waluigi was in Double Dash!!.

 

[YoshiGo99]

The Bee Minions would probably make it before the Queen Bee. But I am not saying they will appear.

 

[Lily x]

I smell bullshit about this queen bee, Im pretty sure its fake or a fan idea.

 

[MnSG]

I smell *bleep* about this queen bee, Im pretty sure its fake or a fan idea.

If it's from Nintendo Power, it's probably confirmed. An image would help though.

 

[Lily x]

Me too, I mean we have 3 'new characters' I think there may be Luma/Lubba as another newcomer and the rest will be people like Waluigi or Bowser jr.

 

[kat-rin koopa]

Hey, look, I'm British. If I could get the issue myself to verify, I would. As it is, I have to wait on my sources for something.

 

[YamiHoshi]

It's very unlikely to be true, as no reviewers have this game yet.
Actually, not even Nintendo Benelux has the game yet.

 

[Ray Trace]

I don't believe in Queen Bee being playable either. A second random character just doesn't do it for me. If they announced HER instead of Metal Mario....maybe I might buy it. But only maybe.

 

[Lily x]

Its a lie, I can tell, the only deserving newcomer who stands a chance of being in it is Luma or Lubba and the rest should be returning characters IMO.

 

[Anser]

The awkward moment when you think the Queen Bee news is false...


... and then you notice that there's a battle stage called Honey Bee House.

 

[Pandapowah]

It may be true because of the above statement and that Maple Treeway is returning meaning that it could be Wiggler's stage. This also means Diddy Kong's chances are lower since it probably won't be his stage anymore..

 

[Ray Trace]

Just because there is a stage named after a character doesn't mean he'll be in it
