Yeah I thought Bowser Jr. was way too small to be a middleweight in Mario Kart Wii :P

Bowser Jr. is getting older though, so the size change was to be expected.
 
Re: Mario Kart 8

But... but how come Baby Mario and Baby Luigi haven't aged?
 
Re: Mario Kart 8

Because Baby Mario and Baby Luigi are gods and therefore immortal

Because then they'd be the toddler mario bros.

Baby Mario and Baby Luigi technically are toddlers

I guess they using 5 weights in MK8. (MK7 has 5 instead of 3)
Toad, Toadette
Peach, Daisy, Yoshi
Mario, Luigi
Waluigi, Donkey Kong
Wario, Bowser

You missed one; Koopa Troopa.

Anyway, I tend to think that Mario Kart 7's weight classification has its questionable parts. For one thing, Donkey Kong seems too heavy to even be in the Cruiser class.
 
Re: Mario Kart 8

I love it except the lack of Honey Queen. Boy would I have a fun time killing Wario, DK, and Pianta...but Honey Queen needs to top off my kill list
 
Re: Mario Kart 8

If it's for all characters, then I'm definitely buying it.

An even better idea is alternate costumes ie Dr. Mario
 
Re: Mario Kart 8

Pianta is highly unlikely, especially after not appearing along with Noki in Double Dash (now that I think about it, I find it strange they weren't added, seeing Sunshine was being promoted like hell back in those days). It's not a bad character, though. Excellent, realistic roster, General Zod.

I don't know if I have posted this earlier in the thread, but I'm not going to search on 60 pages so here it goes:

Small:
1) Baby Mario
2) Baby Luigi
3) Baby Peach
4) Baby Daisy
5) Toad
6) Toadette
7) Koopa Troopa
8 ) Dry Bones
9) Shy Guy
10) Paratroopa (Returns)
11) Toadsworth (New)
12) E. Gadd (New)

Middle:
1) Mario
2) Luigi
3) Peach
4) Daisy
5) Yoshi
6) Birdo
7) Diddy Kong
8 ) Bowser Jr.
9) Dixie Kong (New)
10) Hammer Bro (New)
11) Magikoopa (New)
12) The Chimp (New) (Not sure about this one, I couldn't find any other middle-size characters that fit in the game).
Large:

1) Wario
2) Waluigi
3) Donkey Kong
4) Bowser
5) King Boo
6) Rosalina
7) Funky Kong
8 ) Dry Bowser
9) Honey Queen
10) Wiggler
11) Petey Piranha (Returns)
12) Lubba (New)
 
Re: Mario Kart 8

A 36 character roster sounds nice

Definitely.

That's pretty much how I feel, as 36 characters do offer the best balance when implementing character sizes and character types into the equation.
 
Re: Mario Kart 8

My bet is 30 characters, and while I'm at it, my guess at what the roster will appear as:

Light:
Baby Mario, Baby Luigi, Baby Peach, Baby Daisy, Lakitu
Koopa, Dry Bones, Toad, Toadette, Shy Guy

Medium:
Mario, Luigi, Peach, Daisy, Yoshi
Birdo, Diddy Kong, Bowser Jr., Magikoopa, Hammer Bro.

Large:
Wario, Waluigi, Rosalina, DK, Funky Kong
King Boo, Petey Piranha, Bowser, Dry Bowser, Wiggler.

That is what I feel will be most implemented, but still, I doubt I'm close at all.

i think they'll be a few more characters than this, but the ones you have are good imo

E.Gadd fits more into the small spot and there is enough medium spots out.
Lubba seems like the perfect addition. Luma WOULD honestly be better since they already had Luma as a playable character in Mario Tennis Open.
I will boycott the shit out of this game if Lubba's in it
 
Re: Mario Kart 8

I did do a minor update to my previous roster...

Hey, you cutoff the sentence! I don't want Lubba in it; if you read, I was criticizing how NSM thinks that Honey Queen was not a good decision while he thinks Lubba would be better.
