Re: Mario Kart Wii U

I don't think Nintendo will ever read this thread, as they don't really read Mario forums :/

Also, I don't want RPG Characters in Mario Kart!! I don't wanna see:

Spoiler

Koopa Troopa and Shy Guy knocked off the roster!

Adding RPG characters won't knock anyone else off the roster. If they would knock one character off just for another one, then they are jerks. Why not include everyone?

Re: Mario Kart Wii U

rpg characters will not happen

if they do make one happen that is not major (like Fawful) then fuck Nintendo

Re: Mario Kart Wii U

Nope, I doubt

Thank you random koopatroopa for your sage input, how do you know if nintendo dosen't listen to the fans? How else is earthbound going to get a re-release, a random whim that nintendo had? I don't think so.

They mostly don't.

All Mario characters have a chance and you can't deny it with personal bias. You should give some concrete reasons like Count Bleck had been defeated.

And you possibly know why species have to be knocked off in the first place. Also, that's not doing the fact Nintendo can add newcomers.

Yes, Dimentio. They are all being held back from racing with the rest of the Mario cast. I say destroy this cage and free the RPG characters! Let them in, Nintendo! Come on, what have you got to lose?

well, they have to make 3d models for them, and they will possibly look really awkward....

I thought some RPG characters are based on the species that already have 3D models in Mario series. SPP characters are the real deal in this case, though I've seen something similar in fanmade brawl.

And in a rational view, RPG characters have minor chances simply because they are only one-appearance minor characters in Mario world. Fawful or Starlow from M&L have bigger chances, or we have to choose some characters to be recurring regulars or species representives.

Re: Mario Kart Wii U

3D models are really a no issue with Nintendo. They create tons of new 3D models for enemies in the New Super Mario Bros. games, I don't see why it's difficult to make 3D models for RPG characters.

That's great! But what class will it be in?

Re: Mario Kart Wii U

I don't think Hammer Bro. is worthless. But I do have to agree Koopa Paratroopa is too much like Koopa Troopa.

couldn't you say to a similar extent that mario is too much like luigi? or peach is too much like daisy or rosalina?

honestly i'd love to see paratroopa back

also i think adding rpg characters to mario kart games isn't a good idea. especially fawful because he's the worst one. i'm assuming somebody's brought up fawful already.

No, because Luigi and Daisy actually have (somewhat) different personalities and looks, whereas Koopa Paratroopa is basically a winged and red-shelled version of Koopa Troopa, in my opinion. Not that I hate Paratroopa, though.

By the way, I agree with you on the point about RPG characters, especially Fawful.

Re: Mario Kart Wii U

Luigi DID start out as a green Mario, though. But anyway, Paratroopa>>>>Koopa Troopa

Unless you specify those characters of original species in RPG games (eg, Flurrie, Tippi), it sounds condratictive since other characters are based on known species. And still I can't hear a concrete opinion about why RPG characters are improper choices, while species like PT here isn't a better case.


But indeed it's weird to see such an appearance ratio of KT to PT. I think many other species have its charm too.

Lightweight considering it's small and made of wood.

Re: Mario Kart Wii U

If not, it could be a background character

Or members of the audience in circuits (like 's, Hammer Bros and Goombas)

I would be okay with that.

Re: Mario Kart Wii U

Bumpties/Pengins and Whittles are possibly the cutest species in Galaxy games, while Whittles seem more original. Despite species problem, I'd like to see them playable instead past species this time.

 

[Super Whittle]

Re: Mario Kart Wii U

It would be awesome if the karts changed colors for the character chosen, like they were in MKW. It would also be cool if the Mii's kart's colors changed depending on the Miis favorite color. I expect they will in MKU...




Yea, Whittles were the cutest things to come from the Galaxy games with Lumas coming in a close second. Though unlike Whittes I can't see a Luma driving a kart. Lumas are just too tiny to drive a kart.

Well there's not much much of a size difference between them and the baby characters,plus they could make a little bigger if they had to,the same same way they make Bowser smaller for MK games.

Re: Mario Kart Wii U

I'd rather Lubba than a generic Luma. No more generics than necessary please. Also, I get this feeling that more babies will debut in this game. Please, Baby Wario/Waluigi, possibly Rosalina, and stop there. No more babies either. Thank you.

 

[Ray Trace]

Re: Mario Kart Wii U

I honestly don't want any more babies. 2 babies is enough, 4 is pushing it and that's where I draw the line.

 

[Super Whittle]

Re: Mario Kart Wii U

They seem to have pushed the babies down to Baby Mario and Baby Peach, or at least they did in Mario Tennis Open. While I don't mind the babies as much as some do I still would like them to keep them at a minimum. There are much better characters that could be used as lightweights.

Also I agree about the generics, if they want to included a generic they should at least give it something to differentiate it from the rest, like give it a bow, different color than the rest, maybe a unique name, anything to differentiate it even if only slightly.

Kinda like how Goombella is still a Goomba, but has things to set her apart from all the rest of the Goombas.

A bit hard. The staff could be reluctant to get rid of Baby Mario and only put Baby Luigi and Baby Daisy in Kart 8.

It's true that babies are alteregos, and there should be other light characters that aren't babies, toads and species for us to choose (eg, Gadd, KatAna). Overusing babies would lead to a bad balance.

Glad to hear a character I always dream to use.

You can put that feeling in the upcoming Yarn Yoshi and it would do no harm.
