So, Anon Babble, who are you going to main in Mario Kart World? For me it's either Cow or Snowman

Most people don't want C-listers, D-listers, or F-listers like Spike, Para-Biddybud, or Fishbone. They want characters like Diddy Kong, Funky Kong, Captain Syrup, Poochy, and Dixie Kong. You know, characters that have an established fanbase that aren't just random shitty mooks?

I like

Cow
Monty Mole
Cheep Cheep
Conkdor
Hammer Bro
Goomba
Spike
Penguin
Snowman
Rocky Wrench

I might stick with Hammer Bro or Penguin

I'd imagine "World" will be a franchise that will last many years so they will inevitably add everyone as DLC

It's the same reason no one wants more Nintendo characters in Smash Bros. Sakurai has already harvested all the fun, memorable, and interesting characters Nintendo has to offer. All that remains are dogshit character choices like Bandana Waddle Dee, Geno, Skull Kid, and etc.

Mookshitter

Play a real character

it just makes it seem cheap. some more iconic ones i get like goomba or shy guy, but who wants to play as "dolphin"? they can't even drive. makes zero sense. i don't even know what game is that from. i assume sunshine because never played that.
probably something from the background that they just put there as character because why the fuck not.
then there's some sort of fish bones? snowman from that one mario kart 64 track. a fucking crab? fuck it i don't know, just seems they're scrabing the bottom of the barrel with some of these

49 characters listed

decide to make it 8 by 6 with an extra row that has onle 1 character

could've just made it 7 by 7 and not have all that empty space at the bottom

Retard.

There's actually 50 characters. I just replaced Daisy with Cow.

god just shut the fuck up already

Just let me play my shitty meme character in peace

No

Dolphin

I'm glad RPGfags are getting fingered

Who?

Judging by all the discourse I've seen online, Cow is the most popular with a bunch of other enemies and Waluigi pulling up the top spots.

DK might be the least picked character since no one likes his new design.

These guys minus Lakitu and Shyguy

Shy Guy

not a real character

Sounds to me like somebody didn't own MKDS when everyone gathered around on the bus and is still seething to this day.

I'm more concerned with the tracks being fucking straight lines than the characters.

Pianta. Just so I can chuck Chargin' Chuck.can you imagine if the only mario rpg rep they add is sneed

Is there a chance bros?

No one from SMB2 is getting in aside from Shyguy. Maybe you'll get a Sniffit costume for Shyguy.

All Chucksters are Piantas, but not all Piantas are Chucksters.

Just shows how creatively bankruptcthis company is

I dunno, charging $80 per game is a pretty creative way to turn trillions of yen into quadrillions.

What? Using Mario characters in a Mario Kart game is creatively bankrupt?

it is anon
you know what isn't? using one-time rpg characters like that ghost tranny

what the fuck. is that real?

Why wouldn't it be?

why would they have random enemies as playable racers?

Because people want to play as them?

What about characters from the peripheral Mario franchises like DK, Wario, and Yoshi?

peripheral

that's why
although technically Yoshi has no peripheral characters they are 80% always Mario enemies

It's weird he fell through the cracks while so much from Mario 2 stuck around to become part of the core brand

birdo, shy guys, snifits, bob-ombs, pokeys

Using background props like cow and crab is, they havent evolved since double dash days

no baby Pauline?

This is miserable. They should've just bit the bullet and done crossover characters. Kirby, Olimar, and Samus would've been way better fits than Cow, Sidestepper, and Coin Copper.

Where the fuck is Larry?

Literally who?

i'm half in the bag
fishbones, coin coffers, swoops etc. are sorta cheap and shitposty
on the other hand its good that its not Smash Kart filled with crossovers

crossovers

kys mario g doent need thoze flop characters

Pikachu is more notable than Mario. Pokemon has eclipsed Mario in money earned, after all.

I think its a good decision to not have any of the bowser kids at all but it feels filler-y
should have just put luma, cappy, chomp, any of the paper mario companions instead of the fucking coin frog and the generic ghost

If they're going all out with adding goons, then why not?

I guess "young Pauline" will be a racer in MKW due to Bananza

Daisy. Specifically her Oasis costume.

No one remembers modern Mario enemies.

Daisy isn't listed bro.

I think its a good decision to not have any of the bowser kids at all but it feels filler-y

No way you think the Koopalings are worse picks than the likes of Cow, Dolphin, and Coin Copper

Always and forever. Hoping they have a random outfit option because otherwise I'm going to need to dig out some dice.

Daisyfags

Thread is ruined

I think its a good decision to not have any of the bowser kids

kys

Have sex, incels.

I want to fuck Birdo in her sundress so bad

I refuse.
The second one you replied to is nothing but a filthy degenerate.

They are going to charge 80$ for this game and then an extra 20$ for the dlc which includes 200cc (changing a single variable in the code)

PENGUIN CHADS, RISE UP

Counting for 93% inflation since 2020, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe was worth $115 in today's money 3 years after release.

No, I'd rather you sit down.

If shy guy has his chef costume i will never play anyone else ever again unless goomba gets a funny hat

im maining as peach's seat

When are they releasing these cock hungry slutflowers?

Daily reminder that everyone who plays exclusively as Mario enemies is an alpha chad who lifts and gets girls, while all the people that play as the main cast (especially chars like Daisy and Rosalina) are eternal soiboi beta cuckboy incels.

Not playing as Cow and carrying a Burger to the finish line

This but the exact opposite (except for Daisy)

you don't get it I'm a diehard shy guy fan i love that little guy and his funny variations and costumes. i NEED chef shy guy. cow is based though but coin coffer is also tempting

They already added the Piantas and Cataquacks. That's all the Sunshine representation we need.

I'm sorry for your autism

I don't really care for most Mario mooks (outside of Koopa Troopa)

...But if they announce my boy, on the other hand, I am absolutely down
PUT HIM IN, NINTENDO
DO IT DO IT DO IT

cataquack is better

All these C listers.

Just should have added Link, Ganondorf, Zelda, Kirby, Meta knight, King Dedede, Tom Nook, Isabelle and K. Rool instead.
At least these are characters people actually like and care about.

This but unironically. Everyone would rather have Kirby than Coin Coffer. Everyone would rather have Olimar than Peepa. Everyone would rather have Dixie Kong than Stingby.

Cataquack doesn't have a sick fucking spear beak and the most fun boss battle in 3D Mario

smashkart

mario kart is supposed to be a celebration of the series, not crossoverslop

Forgot about Dixie, Diddy, Cranky and Funky.
Don't they even live in the same universe as Mario?

Rematch on the moon with Hammerbro was better.

would (you) consider shyguy a C-lister and underserving of his slot

most fun boss battle in 3D Mario

ENTER

he used to be multiplayer exclusive in ds.
he's earned his spot as a regular.

I really like these additions. Hotel boos would have been good too.

King Boo mains are the new Yoshifags.

donkey kong or pauline

It's a random enemy and doesn't even appear in that many Mario games bsides ones where he needs to fill slots.
Despite that, I would still take 10 Shy Guys over one Rocky Wrench or Para-Biddybud.

Absolutely not. Hammerbro, as cool as he is, controls like ass with all his hopping around, throwing hammers to break the leg armor is much lamer than deflecting the bombs with well-timed pecks, and in general the low gravity just encourages you to not engage with the boss whatsoever.
Oh, and they also took away the FUCKING FIREWORKS.
Fuck Dark Side RoboBrood.

He's on the border of C and B.

A-listers

Mario, Luigi, Peach, Bowser, Yoshi, Toad, Rosalina, DK, Wario, Koopa, Goomba

B-listers

Daisy, Waluigi, Bowser Jr, Pauline, Nabbit, Toadette, Baby Mario, Baby Luigi, Birdo, Dry Bones

C-listers

Pianta, Baby Peach, Baby Daisy, Baby Rosalina, Lakitu, Cheep Cheep, Monty Mole, Wiggler

D-listers

Coin Coffer, Conkdor, Chargin' Chuck, Fish Bone, Sidestepepr

F-listers

Cow, Penguin, Dolphin

Waluigi, DK and Bowser Jr in the same tier as Toadette, Nabbit, Pauline and Dry Bones.

Like it or not, Dry Bones has been receiving a lot of love from Nintendo over the past 15 - 20 years. He was playable in Mario Kart DS meaning he has been playable for almost 2 decades now.

The only Mario Kart game Dry Bones hasn't been playable in since the DS is MK7, and Waluigi was also left out of that. So yeah, Waluigi and Dry Bones are on the same level of relevance.

The alpha males will be playing as fish bone, peepa, penguin, and snowman.
Sigmas will be playing as goomba, koopa, hammer bro, piranha plant, monty mole.
Lakitu and dry bones are for betas but not in the derogatory sense, its more like guys who would be able to make girls fall in love with them over letters if people still used mail. Like Cyrano de Bergerac

What about those who are playing as Pianta?

Bowser Jr and DK are main characters though.
I think they deserve a higher tier than Pauline, Nabbit and Toadette.

Pianta, piranha plant or peepa

It's too late for that, retard

DK is in the A-listers and Bowser Jr isn't a main character. Toadette is playable in actual Mario games. Not just Captain Toad's Treasure Tracker but also NSMBU Deluxe and Super Mario Wonder. You only get to play as Bowser Jr in spinoffs. Toadette is a main character.

What did she mean by this?

MK8 was an aberration. Link, Inklings, Villager, and etc aren't coming back. Ever.

most diabolical anon, with a dark heart

where's the noki

Forgettable, and thus forgotten.

Contrarianism isn't necessarily dark. If the dominant mood of the day is evil, the contrarian will naturally be good.

Based P-man

Where's diddy kong?

This is Mario Kart, not Smash Kart.

Wario, as always

Who cares? How about we talk about how awesome the maps look instead?

i hope the entire roster is all the characters from the mario universe including random picks like the rabbits from odyssey
seeing link in mario go kart racing is incredibly stupid and doesn't fit the artstyle

It fits perfectly. Just look at Smash Bros.

I hope the rail sliding is optional in the sense you could do it for maneuvering but it'd be the same as regular drifting cause if you "have" to do it, races are going to get really formulaic

I'd rather them make multiple viable paths instead of everyone having to follow the same shortcuts every time. Mario Kart 8 was great and all, but there was always only 1 optimal path.

Yeah, that's pretty much what I meant, tracks are going to be solved if you have to rail or lose

I feel like rail sliding will open up more options than it closes by giving you multiple paths through the stage. Though my main concern is that you're literally on rails meaning you lack the freedom to dodge or take corners tighter.

Imagine if Sonic CrossWorlds let you race as every random enemy. Ah, yes… I would like to play as the Motobug.

Sonic and Mario aren't directly comparable because Mario is a good series

THE LAD CHUCKSTER

Gay bara furry nigger.

Lad is above chad anon

in prison

What crime did he commit?

you prefer cataquack and peepa to ashley or midbus?

Hopefully there's a gold shell koopa troop or snes mario

Cataquack? Definitely.

Even Raiden Metal Gear in a Mario game would be prefferable to gay furry barabait.

costumes are separate slots

this is fucking retarded, maybe that's how they can advertise 84 characters lol

your opinions are silly

roster ends up even smaller than MK8 (base game)

I believe it, people are gonna wish we had base MK8’s roster

Daisy not in A

I'm not even a Daisyfag but come on now, same for Toadette

seconded.
Unless Baby Bowser gets a shadow Mario costume
