Metal characters are more like "We'll throw them in for free" kind of characters. Less resources to use, has some fan appeal (Metal Mario), and "medium-sized heavyweight" trait. The benefits seem attractive, so hence they're kept in, just as how Dr. Mario returned in Smash 4.Koopaul said:Characters get cut all the time in Mario Kart rosters. If you have to cut anyone, you might as well cut the least popular and most complained about ones.
Basically the Metal characters and fursuit characters. Very very few people would be sad to see them gone. You're not going to please everyone, but at least try to aim to please more people than a small minority.
Koopalings and Baby Rosalina and furries and non Mario characters seem to take up more resources, so I think they're more responsible for the crap.
