It isn't false though. It'll be completely false if Mii and Pac-man aren't in the final product. So far, I'm thinking there is some weight to this rumor. Who would have guessed Megaman, Villager and Wii Fit Trainer to be revealed? It's more than just a coincidence.
...We had a lot of people wanting Villager in the game on this forum alone. A lot of people called MegaMan as being an obvious choice. Same with Little Mac, and with Rosalina.

Wii Fit Trainer is honestly so far the only one that ever stood out in For's newcomer slots.

I watched the entire Game Grumps Let's Play of it in one sitting and it looks like it spikes in difficulty in the Wily's Castle sections.

The levels are actually quite easy. Beat Wood Man and Flash Man so far. The only real thing that is tricky for me is the platform placement being so close to the screen transition point on Quick Man's stage where a beam comes in from the right. You have to immediately skid off the edge! Can't wait to see what all the fuss about Air Man is about.
Yeah the flash man and air man stages were tough, but not that bad really. Air man stage was tough because enemies would pop out and hit you mid jump, or just hit you so you fall off the tiny square you're standing on.

Reason I'm stuck is because I need to use the rush platform thing to go farther, but I'm out of energy for it. Iirc, I got past that part, but when I got a gameover I spawned back there. It's mostly because of laziness that I haven't beaten it.

Are there any collectable upgrades I should look out for at all? I beat the entirety of Mega Man X after collecting all Sub Containers and Heart Tanks. Really helps you deal with the Sigma fights. :D

Finally watched the direct completely...

Koopalings in Mario Kart 8. Hell yeah!
Damn you're late. lol I agree though MK8 looks fantastic I can't wait.

If it hasn't been done already someone should make a Wii U FC sharing thread in the Mario section so we can get some races in with the Smashboards crew.

That reminds me that I want a Mike Tyson assist trophy. Fully 8-bit in the background serving OHKO uppercuts.

As far as I know, there's just the extra energy tanks. You can only hold four.

...You could've PM'd me that. >_< Or just said it outright. Um, yeah, I've reported those kinds of posts multiple times. Please erase that, though. That's a sexual image that shouldn't be on here.

Far better than Queen Bee or Metal Mario. :rolleyes:
Metal Mario is awesome, man. Way better than Metal Wario, anyway. He's one of my favorite caps, one of my favorite NPC's to play as in 64, really fun to play as in Melee/Brawl, and a really neat character to play as separately as well.

...Agreed with Queen Bee, though.

The Koopalings are probably the biggest waste of development time ever.
Could be worse. Could have been even more baby characters. Still I would have thrown in maybe another Wario character, or someone else from the DK crew. Though, I'm not too interested in the kids either.

Bring back Petey Piranha Ninentdo, y'know you want it to happen.

I'm really happy to see the Koopalings in Mario Kart finally, I always enjoyed them in the Mario games so playing with them is a big plus for me.

I wasn't rooting for Little Mac, but I don't think he's undeserving.

And I always enjoy a classic NES rep

I just have to say, from the FIRST rumor, the one with Wii Fit Trainer.

Does that mean Pac Man could be in the game?

He could be. He might not.

Not like we should take that rumor seriously, though. It's just a rumor and nothing more.

In a dream world characters like Wiggler, Queen Bee, baby versions of anyone that's not maybe Mario would not be present in Mario Kart and we'd get an expansion of the spin-off characters into the roster.

Seriously:

Donkey Kong could give us Dixie and Cranky. I honestly don't understand how Funky got in before either of them.
Yoshi could give us Kamek. I guess we could keep Baby Mario at least.
Wario could give us Mona, Captain Syrup, Ashley, etc

Hell what about putting some of the Paper Mario sidekicks and villains in? There are much better things to fill out the roster than **** like they pulled in Mario Kart 7.

Of course you do Mother Brain.
Indeed. :awesome:

But seriously, I love his Captain N version. I already like we have a few Captain N characters in Smash as is. I got no problem with the main roster showing up(or at least the guys who actually originated in the video games first).

I like the Koopalings but I will say that 7 new characters seems a bit much for Mario Kart game.
I haven't seen the trailer yet,

But if Dry Bowser is not in the game I may as well try Lemmy, since he's my favorite Koopaling

With all 7 Koopalings in Mario Kart 8, all we need is Bowser Jr. to get within one of the weight classes, preferably medium, to make the number of Bowser's kids even! I swear this it turning into Koopa Kart 8! Also, why don't we have a playable Goomba yet?

I would love Dr. Mario or Kamek/Magikoopa (c'mon you were supposed to be in 64... plus it would be hilarious with the baby bros. racing) in MK8 personally. I don't know how I feel about the Koopalings... although I always thought Larry was pretty awesome when I was young. Y'know, when I got Super Mario World for the GBA, it came with some poster thing showing a map and all the enemies, including the Koopalings. And I saw Larry and I thought he was pretty cool/cute, though I'm probably in the minority. I always loved his boss battle, and Lemmy's.

I hope we'll get Bowser Jr. though. :( So many turtles. :dizzy: lol

I've honestly kind of been expecting him but eh, I'm not so sure now. If he was given the same kind of retro style that Mega Man has I wouldn't mind him.
Mainly I refuse to believe Mii would get in. Just so bland and has nothing going for him in terms of a unique, personable character.

Also to keep up with these MK8 posts yeah, the Koopalings are pretty underwhelming...I'd like Pom Pom and Boom Boom though.

Didn't Double Dash have a lot of characters? I don't think it's a bad idea; especially since returning characters aren't as often, there might be a double dash mode, and this is a big release. It's better to jump ambitious than to be in MKWii's gigantic shadow

So watching something of the ND, even though I'm super late.

I'm a little miffed that GBA VCs are getting put onto the Wii-U. I was really hoping for it to be on the 3DS so that if on the chance FE7 gets a release I could have it on the go and on something I own. Instead it will go on the Wii-U if it gets a release and that belongs to my dad. :L

Other then Smash and X trailers that was all I cared about. :L

I'm still waiting for Fire Emblem X Shin Megami Tensai news though. :C
