I am really curious about this. As you know, characters are often announced when new games are released. So, what character could they possibly reveal for the release of Mario Kart 8.
The most likely character to be announced is, well..... WARIO!!!
Wario is a character that has been in almost every Mario Kart game (including the Mario Kart 8) and spin off games of Mario, so it would be a great time to announce him. His chances of getting in are very high and Wario was a popular character in Brawl, and is quite a unique fighter. There is no other Mario series characters that we can really say are definitely getting in, but we know it is almost guaranteed that Wario is getting in. Soooooo, if Wario is not announced the day the game releases, who could be.
If it is not Wario, than it will probably be a Mario representative or someone related to the Mario or Mario Kart games. Time to get creative!
This one is a bit of a stretch already,but there are MANY things pointing towards them joining. The Mii has been a playable character in the last two Mario Kart games, and Mario Kart 8. The Mii is a Nintendo icon really. They are the avatars of everyone who plays the Wii and Wii U and is also used as mascots for Nintendo. They are also specifically in some Mario spin off games. Seeing as they are able to be used in Mario Kart 8, it would also be a good time to announce the Mii. There are MANY things pointing towards them coming back. The Tomodachi Life and Find Mii stages both represent the Miis well, as they are the main characters in them. Tomodachi Life especially, where the entire game is Miis going through their life. The Find Mii stage even has its own icon, instead of the Smash Bros icon used for stages that do not come from a series of games other than Smash Bros. The Miis would also be very nice to represent people online during matches. The only thing that is preventing the Miis from getting in is that, well, how would they work. They do not fit as well as other characters, the Miis are not the type of character to fight ninjas and swordsmen. A moveset for them would also be kind of hard to come up with, as the Miis are normally very peaceful characters. Sakurai also normally does not reveal newcomers on release dates for these games.
This character is stretching it a bit as well. Paper Mario.
This guy has NOTHING to do with Mario Kart, but Little Mac was announced the day a Donkey Kong game came out, and we got Toon Link again, so there is still a chance. Paper Mario is a popular character and would be a good addition to the roster. His moveset could resolve around his hammer which is one of his main gameplay features in the Paper Mario series, and he could also use his partners and pixies to help him out with specials and smashs. He is still getting more games and is the most liked alternate Mario. He has four games, all of them are like (Sticker Star was indifferent, but a good amount of people like it) and had a game on all Nintendo home consoles since the N64. He fits in well with the other characters, being very cartoon-ish and animated, sort of like Toon Link. Toon Like also proves that alternate character forms are possible. Toon Link is just another Link, as Paper Mario is just an alternate form of Mario. There is some things holding him back though. Paper Mario has only been in four games, but when you think about that, the Ice Climbers have only been in one outside of Smash, so not a huge thing holding him back. Half of his games have mixed feelings. The first two most people agree are great, but the second two people are indifferent on. He is also not as iconic and not as many people know about him as they know Mario, although you could say the same about Toon Link as well. I personally hope he gets in, I think he would be a great addition.
They may not even announce a character at all. They did not announce Meta Knight for the release of Kirby Triple Deluxe, so they may not reveal a character for the release of Mario Kart 8 at all. But Mario Kart 8 is a highly hyped game that Nintendo has been trying to advertise as much as the new Smash Bros. It is highly possible that they do, so here is hoping to a new and awesome character!! :D
Maybe you have an idea of who they may add or maybe you may disagree with my ideas. Thanks for reading!
