Pink Gold Peach. Lmao, next Mario Kart game will have a new character: Silver Luigi from New Super Mario Bros. 2.
If Funky Kong was in MK8, almost everyone would use him in online play along with Metal Mario. Clan "wars" will have a lot of players using them if Funky Kong was in the game, but Metal Mario replaced him starting from Mario Kart 7.
It's sad Diddy is not there. Why did they remove him is beyond me. I mean, like, at least he's in Smash Bros.
I miss Funky Kong...

MK8 alone probably has the worst MK character roster to date.


Koopaling's are the only decent newcomers, but only the ones you actually like as opposed to all 7. Then we got Baby Rosalina, Pink Gold Peach. Why? I dunno.

There is also issues with choosing unpopular characters over popular characters. E.g. there's no Diddy Kong or Bowser Jr. But there's Lakitu and Toadette! ...who asked for them?

Also, the baby characters feel like they're saturating the roster.

It's a shame, I feel MK8 has the best 32 tracks, but the 2nd worst character roster. :( (MK7 being my least favorite.)
It's funny, I don't get hyped as much for a new Mario Kart. MK7 was the only exception, but that was because the 3DS was unveiled back at E3 2010. Those were good times. But yeah, I agree with everything you said.

I don't play Mario Kart for the characters anymore, though, just for the courses.
Sort of the same with me too. I usually just use Mario and Yoshi. The only other MK8 character I was happy seeing was Shy Guy. Shy Guy is pretty hype honestly.

These fools are seriously acting like this will be the last Smash game we'll ever have and we all know damn well that Smash will be forever milked (like Mario and Pokemon) since it's a cash cow. Besides, the average gamer is 30 years old according to statistics and most of us would be close enough or a little less by time the next game comes out anyway.
I don't really like to talk about the future of the Smash series just yet, especially since the game isn't out, however, I am interested in how a different director may handle things (I don't see the series is stopping now!). That's not to say I want Sakurai gone, I'm just genuinely curious... Or maybe he could be a supervisor/get a co-director. Smash is putting a strain on his physical health and he has commented on how stressful making the Smash games are, so it will be interesting if he does want to direct the next installment.

You miss Funky Bike GCN? That sucks. At least there's Metal Monster 8.
Funky Kong was a good addition, but almost everyone used him and Daisy because Mario Kart Wii is too competitive, am I right.

I feel kinda different to everyone here, my decision to purchase Mario Kart games has been thus:

"Is Rosalina playable?"

If so, I buy it.

If not, I don't. Don't care about the rest of the roster, because Rosalina.

FUNKY BIKE WII!!

I see you lost your Premium.

If you're experiencing Premium Dysfunction, you might want to try Cialis or Viagra.
My name has been changed. I have no need for Viagra or Premium anymore.

Roy looks way out of place up at the top of the page. lol
Our boy never looks out of place. You could put him anywhere and he'd look fine.



See?

I've seen this one a lot and I still don't know what this means.
It's leet speak for either "teh fire" or "the fire," referring to Roy having fire attacks.

That is a very strange way of spelling Shy Guy. I mean, I agree he's still the best choice since his introduction into the MK series. No doubt about that.

If you're a fire emblem swordsman, you either look like a girl or a gorilla. This is why I feel Roy is kinda out of place.:troll:

This is how I feel about it, with Metal Mario or Rosalina. Freedom to choose. :shades:

Dagnabbit, you made me realize how old I am.

In other news: currently listening to Brawl's OST. Why do I love the Smash-music so much?

Given his current condition, a co-producer would be the ideal way to go if they were to do a sequel for Nintendo's next platforms if he can't handle things alone. Though him having a successor take his place for future games would be more likely if he doesn't want to work on the series anymore or if the health conditions are severe for an old guy like him.

I somewhat like Melee's All-Star Rest Area more than Brawl's. It had that peaceful setting + the KSS song fit nicely. Now that I think about it, it somewhat reminds me of Windows XP's default wallpaper. It's a coincidence because both Melee and XP were released in the same year, 2001. :troll:

We all agree this is the best victory theme in Smash history and that this victory theme should come back for Smash 4, am I right?

I never noticed this until now, but Roy's shoes are really awkward looking. Hard to be agile with clunky combat boots.

Reminds me of this pic a made a while ago for some reason:

I 100% agree.

I even learned to play it on the piano. :awesome:

Saw this commercial again online, and more tears came to my eyes.
I feel you, replaying both Space Channel 5 made things even more depressing considering there was a character based on Michael Jackson. Hell, I didn't even want to include that character in my Sega All Stars fanfic for that same reason alone. ;_;
