We landed a tie. I noticed that beforehand, so I did the random wheel generator in advance to get a tiebreaker.
X-Treme came out on top!
I'll go into detail a lil' more about the idea tomorrow, then give out the next prompt!

Might join in on this.

New battle royale just dropped.

 

[BlueCRE]

Hey all! Just an update!

I'll be putting the idea out tomorrow instead. I was just busy today, so I'll need some extra time to put my ideas in a doc and whatnot. Thanks for your patience!

The document for X-Treme is now out!

I'm able to answer any questions y'all may have about the idea. It'll be a little while before I post the second part of the prompt!

Are there gonna be any Non-Mario guests?
Because having guests in Mario Kart sounds more exciting and interesting.

 

[BlueCRE]

I plan to add about 1-3 of em'. I try to avoid a good chunk of trending or popular ideas to be more unique, so they'll be less likely to guess.

 

[Tankman from Newgrounds]

I plan to add about 1-3 of em'.

Hope it will be ROB, Link and Captain Falcon.
Having Captain Falcon in Mario Kart title sounds great.

Everyone is doing the crossovers thing. I think it would be kind of refreshing to have something that doesn't do that for once.

I really like X-Treme BTW.

I mean, ROB's addition in Mario Kart DS made the game more interesting to play.
Also, Link, Villager, Isabelle and Inklings were also interesting characters in Mario Kart.

Yeah but the point is that is seemingly what we're getting anyway so why not so something different.

It's Blue's game anyway.

It's his game, but having only Mario Roster would be little bit boring and repetitive (I mean, it's Mario Kart, but still we could add some guests to make it interesting like they added Sonic and Snake to Smash, which it was brilliant idea).

Hi, I'm joining this thread now. Always thought it was cool but didn't have the time, but now I have some time to hop in from here to there.

For the racers Yoshi and Shy Guy, will they retain the multiple colors they had in MK8? And will Bowser Jr., similar to how Yoshi and Shy Guy does it, be able to swap between the Koopalings?

Pretty pointless, but I need to know if I get Isekai'd into the world where this Nintendo generation happens if I can play as Light Blue Yoshi and Lemmy Koopa in the newest Mario Kart game.

That's right! Multiple color options still exist in X-Treme. Yoshi and Shy Guy will get theirs, and new multiple color options appear for Toad, Koopa Troopa,
and Bowser Jr w/ the Koopalings

 

[BlueCRE]

...By the way, here's the next part of the fourth job! Have fun!

 

[Wario Wario Wario]

Can I submit an original character based on the Mario universe? I have a backup submission in mind if this isn't approved.

Mabowser

Art by LetItMelo. Not necessarily representative of how the character would appear.

The yang to Bowser's yin, Mabowser is Bowser's cuddly; Barney-esque doppleganger and the natural conclusion of the Wario-cube. Always cheerful and a sucker for hugs, he's sickly-sweet to the point of exclaiming "Sorry!" when deploying a bob-omb. Just like Waluigi, nobody knows where he's from or what relation he has to either, Bowser or Wario.

 

[BlueCRE]

Sweet gosh, I love that idea. lmao. I imagine he's that clone from Mario Lost Levels, and just wanted to help his brother out.

 

[Deleted member]

Foreman Spike

He's gonna be in the new Mario movie so we may as well bring him back.

 

[CheeseAnton]

Thwomp

Thwomps are an iconic Mario enemy that's been in most Mario and Mario Kart games. The main reason I'm submitting this is the infamous rumor of a playable Thwomp in Mario Kart 64, which people started calling Marty, so I think it'd be cool if we added a playable Thwomp to honor Marty.

EDIT: Don't know if it's allowed, but I'd like to add the idea of 3 colors for the Thwomp. Default is the above Gray, then we have a dark blue representing how they looked earlier before Gray was established, and then the Green Marty The Thwomp has because he's kinda the whole reason I even chose to nominate Thwomp

 

[Tankman from Newgrounds]

New Racer:
Cappy (Mario Odyssey)

Cappy is supporting character that debuted in Super Mario Odyssey on Nintendo Switch. Cappy is Bonneter (A Ghost entity, who wears a hat), who goes with Mario for adventures around the world. He has a sister called Tiara. However, he has an ability to possess hats like he did to Mario's hat and by that, Mario could capture random creatures.

Cappy's stats are:
Weight: Featherweight
Speed: 3/5
Handling: 1/5
Acceleration: 5/5

I nominate Cappy as newcomer, because he could represent Super Mario Odyssey and he is one of Most beloved Mario's Sidekicks ever. He could even fit into Racing game, since Super Mario Odyssey sold much copies that made him popular and by his popularity he could join the Roster without a doubt.

 

[Otoad64]

King K. Rool

He's the main villain of the original Donkey Kong Country games on the SNES, and is a pretty popular character as well. I think it would be good to include another Donkey Kong character outside of just DK and Diddy too.

[BlueCRE]

Oh, and also, while that's out, here's the final part of job 4! Go wild!

 

[Tankman from Newgrounds]

Job 4:
Retro Courses

1. Coconut Mall - Because it's very popular and it has potential to return in next game. I really like it because of the music.
2. Mount Wario - Sounds very unique and we can brought back. I like it, because it has unique structure and Snowy aesthetic.
3. DK Jungle - That track was cool because it really fit DK.

 

[Wario Wario Wario]

I will submit Maple Treeway (best BGM in the series), Rosalina's Ice World (second best BGM in the series) and Wario's Galleon (loose and probably unintentional Wario Land references baby!)

 

[Otoad64]

I submit Wario Stadium (only N64 track that hasn't returned), Sunshine Airport (driving through an airport is fun), and Mushroom City (I just think it's neat)

 

[CheeseAnton]

Luigi's Mansion (DS), great vibes and Luigi's Mansion the game series is great; Toad's Factory (Wii), a really fun and interesting track that sadly never got in another Mario Kart game afterwards; Cheese Land (Mario Kart 8/Super Circuit [thanks for making me remember this game exist, Wario Wario Wario]), Simply the greatest track in all of video game history, no bias whatsoever, that and I just couldn't think of another track since my other most wanteds were already submitted.

It's really easy to forget Cheese Land and Ribbon Road were GBA courses considering how much they were changed.

 

[BlueCRE]

Alright, just about time to wrap up voting. Let's see our first two winners who pulled ahead.


KING K. ROOL: 6 VOTES
THWOMP: 4 VOTES
King K. Rool and the Thwomp will be the first two new racers to join Mario Kart X-Treme.

As for the others...
MABOWSER: 3 VOTES (WON BY RANDOMIZER)
CAPPY: 3 VOTES
FOREMAN SPIKE: 1 VOTE
Mabowser takes the last slot!

 

[BlueCRE]

Oh, and here are my ideas for some retro courses.
Bone Dry Dunes
One of the features I plan to incorporate into MKX is stage shifting. As you race across the tracks, something is happening during the race. This makes it so that you aren't just racing in a course and racing in an actual Mario location. With Bone Dry dunes, what if the dry bone skeletons reanimated on the stage. You may have to make your way around them. Additionally, parts of the road could break as the dead skeletons are reanimated, resulting in more ramp timing on the later laps. You could also race across the ships coursing across the quicksand once the road starts to crack. And then, that big Dry Bowser Skeleton could reanimate, forming a massive titan that you get to race on. The idea of upgrading that stage to fit X-Treme's philosophy would be sick.

Super Mario Kart Amalgamation
The tracks in the original Mario Kart kinda reminded me of toy playsets, so I wondered... Why not make a toylike amalgamation of the Super Mario Kart tracks? On one point you could be racing Donut Plains... On another you could race across Choco Island... And on another, you could race across the original rainbow road. I think that'd be neat!

 

[Glubbfubb]

Erm if thwomp is in the game, I'm going to main him

 

[BlueCRE]

Ight, so just a quick question. What do you all think of the generation we've made so far? Do you like it? If so, how come? Any favorites? And what prompts would you like to see down the line?

 

[Wario Wario Wario]

I don't think we have enough info to say for certain, but VC; return of Miis; and non-crossover Mario Kart are certainly good points for me,

 

[Glubbfubb]

I think were doing good so far, but I'm still waiting for the next core Mario Platformer or F Zero

 

[Deleted member]

It's way too early to tell I feel but it seems good so far. An interesting Mario Kart that does something new without being gimmicky and a Tomodachi Life sequal are good launch titles. Console seems good.

 

[BlueCRE]

Ight, let's get to voting!
