It's nice to see one of them gets in. But I guess Nintendo could have done this in Party IT and Tennis Open.

Really? I'm the only one who straight-up liked the idea? I honestly don't think it's 7 character slots wasted, since the Mario Kart roster has only gotten bigger as time goes on.
So, what about all of them? The advantage is that Nintendo can be fair enough for not making any fan of one koopaling mad.
The debates coul be that, 1) even though koopalings are recurring characters in this seires, they're still not the major regulars in individuals, and their diversity isn't good, and 2), we're not sure how many other new characters are there. If Koopalings take all places, it would be a big controversy.

Nintendo didn't choose to do it in Kart Wii (because of no time?). If they have to be fair enough, there should be at least 35 playable characters to make up for chances. I really hope there are enough places for subseries main characters. However, it also depends on whether there other exclusive characters from Kart Wii or 7 would return (I hope there won't in this case).
 
I wish there was an option to turn off certain CPU characters. That way I could act like the characters I hate (Birdo, Koopa etc) never exist.

Or better yet: pick your opponents

Not depising, I'm more inclined to see Kooper come instead. :-\

I'd keep them on so I could kill them.
Positive thinking :).

Hating Koopa Troopa is cool and always right.
 
I like them, can't have one without having them all. There are people that complain about having generic enemies (koopa, dry bones, etc.) for characters and now we have bosses. Good for you.

I'll probably go with Iggy.
 
I have no problem with them as long as they include the 8th Koopaling (Bowser Jr.)

If they leave them out, it will somewhat ruin my experience since I don't like any of the Koopalings "like that" but I am Bowser Jr, fanboy. Ironically, I would play as them anyway.
