Just joking mate,maybe on a future not far...
I really had no gripes with a roster on mario kart 8(just the half-*** battle mode),but recently this problem started to glancing on my head,while I have no problems adding some guests,it seems this direction it's been taken because the mario kart team thinks there is "no good" mario characters left to be added on a mario spin-off,I mean sure some characters are just regular enemies and NPC's,but the own mario kart team are overlooking them,dry bones is a regular enemy with tons of fans,birdo is really a weird character but it has it's fans too.
But seeing how they handled the situation on the last 2 games is just sad...
On mario kart 7 they cutted waluigi and dry bones in favor of a useless NPC like honeyqueen and a metallic skin of mario,while shy guy and lakitu were good calls,an wigler was so-so,this was just the beggining,but many let pass since the limitations.
On Mario kart 8 it was worse they returned waluigi but left out other characters,while the koopaling sure has their fans,it was high price for making 7 characters and pleasing one fanbase(and jerking on bowser jr. fans),but the non-canon characters like pink golden peach and baby rosalina (the latter for just destroying the background of the character) was too much to handle,on the DLCs the only veteran is dry bowser the others mario characters were skins with different stats.
Mario kart wii still the best choices of a roster for me,only having the flaws of the lack of petey piranha and shy guy,but still they knew what they were doing when they added a character recently pushed in the series(rosalina),a character from another one(funky kong)and kept most of the veterans.
But on mk8 they just said: "screw it",it's like there is no fans for DK characters,no fans of E.gad,Nabbit,or even wario characters.
They didn't even tried.
While characters from another series could give a fresh air to the franchise,they are still ignoring the most common long time requests,while many speculate on a "super smash kart",we have to deal with fan bases rants like this:
