Mario Kart Wii - What's next?*

Hey everyone, I'm a huge fan of Mario Kart racing and Since they confirmed to release it in the first quarter of next year, what's it going to include? Okay, We know it's going to be online including now battles, It's going to have 12 racers in offline races, etc. But theres a few thing to disscuss like ...

How many players do you think can go online?
What New Characters do you think are going to be included?
If retro tracks are included, What ones do you want?

There just a few things to think about before they start revealing information about this game. You may disscuss anything about Mario Kart Here ...

I think that There will be at least 6-8 players online, well I hope so. The Battles may include 4-8 players. Well, we know Baby Mario is one of the characters and Baby Luigi is probably going to be included also. Ha, that'd be cool if Samus was in this one since he never was in a mario Kart. I hope that Rainbow Road from the Mario Kart 64 and The Haunted Highway from the GBA version (I don't know if that's the name, but you may get what I'm saying.) Since Baby Mario is in this game they may either make a new track for him/them or include Gamecube's Double Dash's Baby Track, but I doubt it since it was just previously in the DS version.

I think they could have 12 players online easily. But I think 8 is more likely. As for new characters, Baby Mario and Luigi were already in DD. I could see Baby Bowser joining the team. And Samus is a girl.... and it's Mario Kart, not Nintendo Kart. Samus won't be in it since she is not in the Mario universe. As for retro tracks, Yoshi Circuit from DD, Yoshi Valley from N64, Rainbow Road from N64, Mushroom Bridge from DD, and a lot more I can't remember right now.bededog

Actually, Baby Mario is going to be in this game ... You can clearly see him in the trailer racing in his Baby Carage.

No offense, but did we really need another topic regarding this?

Anyway, as long as the game shows improvement over past games, and, quite obviously, evolves I am happy. They've already added the one thing I was hoping for, and that's an online battle mode.

Yes, but I thought I just create a topic for what people want to see in Mario Kart Wii.

Well so far my favourite game in the series has been, without any doubt, Mario Kart DS. The game has just perfectionized everything in the series with the addition of online play. I'm pretty confident that Mario Kart Wii has the potential of ''beating it''.

I think there's going to be 8 players online and up to 16 players offline. 12 players is a bit too much for online and I doubt the Wii could make it (though we can always be surprised), 8 is about enough.

I deffinitaly can't wait for more details about the game and I hope there's the Kart that I always use on the DS game in the Wii game :D.

I neve said that the Wii could never handle more then 8 players in a game :?, dude the Gamecube might have been able to do that if it had online. I just said that on Mario Kart, I don't know if the Wii could do more then 8 and I highly that they'll put more then 8 because 8 is enough. I would be a fool to think that the Wii can't handle more then 8 players online espeacially when there's a Medal Of Honour game coming that has 32 players online !

"12 players is a bit too much for online and I doubt the Wii could make it."

That kind of sounds like what I was saying. Oh, and they never said that Medal of Honor was online, although it is implied.... to be honest though, I have no clue what the heck they are talking about when they said that. Firstly, they didn't say a single thing about the game, whether it was new or old, or whether it was online. I'm also kind of inclined to think that it might be on-rails considering it uses the Zapper... and the cursor looked unusually big in the gameplay footage. I guess we'll find out eventually though.

*Sigh*, yes but I was talking only about Mario Kart. Online games have always been with 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64 players. Well a few of them may have differ a little and of course there are the MMOs who can support more then hundreds of players.

What I meant to say is that I doubt they'll do it with 12 players and most certainly not 16 players or above (thought this would surprise me. So 8 is enough and the most realistic number.

That is a glitch that has been going around. It erases all the spaces you made. It gets really annoying.

What about some Pokemons as playable characters? Or maybe a Pokemon-related kart?

HyruleanLink

The only Pokemon I could see in this game is maybe Picachu, but I really don't want any Pokemon, add some cool Mario related characters like Hammer Bros. or even the Shy guy.

Once again, it's Mario Kart. Pokemon isn't in the Mario Universe, stop thinking this is like SSBB cause it's not. bededog

[QUOTE="bededog"]Once again, it's Mario Kart. Pokemon isn't in the Mario Universe, stop thinking this is like SSBB cause it's not. REVOLUTIONfreak

I always thought; ''How weird would it be to have Link drive a Kart ?''

Lol yeah all the Mario Games are happening in the Mario Universe. The only place where you see 2 or more Nintendo franchises worlds collide (except in Cameo appearances) is Super Smash Bros.

Why's Donkey Kong in it?

They are in the same universe. Mario was originally in Donkey Kong, althought they have gone seperate ways since then.

Okay thanks. But I still hope some like Hammer Bros. will be in this.

Not everybody knows the history of videogames REV. :?

Who was ROB in Mario Kart DS. I don't think I saw him in a Mario game.Why does Waluigi need to be it. He never appeared as an enemy to either Mario or Luigi in the platform games. chocolate1325

ROB was a robot that come with the first NES systems.

Behold... R.O.B.!

Like bededog said, it was an attatchment for the NES that was essentially useless but cool to look at. He isn't technically in the Mario franchise, but he isn't in any other franchise either, he was just a cameo appearance.

Well, I can't see the picture, but R.O.B. is in the Star Fox games. But he's gotten a makeover since then ...

I never said he wasn't in the game. All I said was he isn't a new addition to the Mario Kart gang.
