I feel like Kirby would be a nice addition to the game, considering he was in his own racing game. He could even come with his warp star, or a warp star themed car.
Or maybe his mouthful mod ?
carby from the forgotten land
@@crayCrab1258 Omg yes Kirby Car and Semi
He even shows up with the group racing during Rosalina's smash 4 reveal trailer
Exactly
I was wondering where Goomba is. Glad to not be dissatisfied XD
Yea
It may be because he has no arms. I don’t exactly remember, but I don’t think there’s any characters without arms in mariokart?
@@cranberryjuice1005
I mean, King Boo is able to drive without legs.
@@cranberryjuice1005 he’s in mario party so why not mario kart
Gonna be honest I wasn’t expecting the king of dissing bad MK content to be here
“Without replacing ANY characters.”
2 Sec later…
“…And I also replaced baby Rosalina.”
And nothing of value was lost
It says “without ADDING any characters”
Replace pink gold peach
bruh
Baby Rosalind is not a character
WIGGLER, BIRDO, KAMEK, PAULINE, PETEY, FUNKY, AND DIDDY ARE IN!!!
Wow you put a lot of effort into this!! Like all the art for the different characters. I wish you were the one who made the decisions at the mario kart team since every idea was just stellar!!!
Yeah
Yup
.
Couldn't have said it better myself.
“Nintendo, hire this man”
i'd drop any amount of money to play as yoshi's noseless dog
Bonus points if it doesn't drive... *_it runs on foot_*
@@luckywii8731 And gets obliterated when you ram into Poochy
Make a skin option to play as Luigi’s dog too
@@AbadabaBoy you unlock it when you run over Poochy
@@ashercd6487 Abuse Poochy and then you'll get to play as a dead dog.
GetMadz: "Wait, Birdo's not in Mario Kart 8?"
Nintendo: " Hold my beer." *Then proceeds to not only put Birdo in the game but also a new Mario Kart map.*
This video aged like very fine wine.
Edit: THEY ALSO JUST ADDED LIKE, 3 MORE CHARACTERS. WIGGLER, PETEY PIRANHA, AND FREAKING KAMEK. LET'S GOOOOO!!
EDIT 2: FINALLY AFTER ALL THESE YEARS, MY BOY FUNKY KONG IS BACK IN STYLE. ALONG WITH PAULINE, DIDDY KONG, AND FREAKING PEACHETTE. I'VE NEVER BEEN HAPPIER LMAOO
lets hope more characters arrive!
The bummer thing about it is that you have to pay for Birdo.
@@CritterLover69she comes with the bcp wym?
@@GetMadz update. Another 3 of your positions are correct. Petey Piranha, wiggler are and kamek are all going to be in the game
I want to get them but I don’t have enough money
8:47 This idea has my full-fledged support. Nintendo, add Penguin into Mario Kart rn pls
Zyphon sup
I’m just glad they have my main man toad. If you ever wanna get shredded feel free to challenge me to a race
Imagine if they removed toad from Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
The Virgin Waluigi Player vs The Chad Toad Player.
Challenge accepeted.
You get your toad, I get my toadette. challange has been accepted.
A man of culture I see. I call toad Tod for me because I called him that when I was playing earlier entries and I will certainly not stop now.
I think that your simple 2d drawings of the characters have more personality than the actual Mario Kart 8 DX renders. I can tell what each characters is thinking just by looking at your drawings.
*mugshot*
Talk about tanooki luigi, that mf be detailed as hell
The renders make it look like the characters are just staring into outer space.
They do look cool and have Personality
I agree
I can't remember the last time I saw a Mario Kart video this this level of quality. Absolutely knocked it out of the park with this one
Hi TJ Henry Yoshi
Y'know what's funny?
BIRDO'S BEING ADDED FR
Just have to shower some generalized adoration and appreciation for this lovely video, you rock
Thank you so much Brookes! I really appreciate the support :]
That would be cool but for now the closest thing we have to Kirby in Mario kart is a mii with a kirbo face
2:15 How did you put Larry and Lakitu before King Boo?!
It'd be cool if you could put the patches on the karts and bikes too, along with maybe being able to unlock and customize the amount of wear and tear the kart's paint job has based on your amount of hours you have in the game, or of the patches based on how long you've had them on the kart/outfit (kinda like warpaints in tf2)
That would add into the detail of the streaks you leave on the ground when you drift
Also I think you could use coins to repair your tires as that would give them a better use
Engineer Gaming: Engineer Gaming
Hopefully we’ll get a DLC characters pass for MK8D!
Edit: Well, Birdo is in the game now! Who else do you think will end up joining the roster?
Edit 2: Petey Piranha, Wiggler, and Kamek have all been confirmed!
When? Also, it's official?
@@Just-aGuy I said hopefully. Sadly, nothing has been officially confirmed yet.
I love this video! The only things I would change would be :
- Dry Bowser to a skin of Bowser
- Babies to skins of their older selves
- Koopalings to skin of Bowser Jr
- Dry Bones to skin of Koopa Troopa
- Adding More Babies as Skins
- Adding More Mario Spin Off Characters
- Adding Captain Falcon
- Also being able to unlock skins via Mission Mode & a Coin Shop
@4:!5 "After you play a character more than a thousand times you unlock its metallic variant." Sounds like a completionist's nightmare.
Agreed
Maybe it should be more than 100
Should be a specific challenge and metal nit shiny. Like you unlock silver and gold shy guy by getting 1st in shy guy falls in 100cc and 200cc. And a metallic red you get when you play 50 tracks with. 50 tracks is a reasonable goal I think, since that’s not absurdly high. Also they aren’t full body textures, just shiny clothing
maybe win 1st with a character 20 times
i was actually thinking of customization feature b4 this video of mario kart, so that they can add more better characters than pink golden peach
Nintendo should hire Madz so that this can become a reality. We N E E D this!
I mean, it's not the first time he gave them amazing ideas.
@@Pyrodiac True, but still.
@@Pyrodiac That’s just the more reason for them to hire him, he’s come up with MULTIPLE ideas that are better then the stuff that Nintendo makes, why shouldn’t he be hired?
"nintendo hire this man"
YES! GREAT IDEA MAN!
Madz is the perfect definition of quality over quantity. He doesn’t have too much videos but the quality and care put into them makes up for it.
this may actually be happening now after Birdo in MK8..
Look, as stupid as Queen Bee was in Mario Kart 7, I want more crap like that. Give me the most random characters to play as! Give me the baby from Luigis Mansion! Give me the robots from Steam Garden! Don't give me pink neon gold fire Dr. Baby Peach and teenage goth mario.
I agree, queen and wiggler was the worst things to happen in MK history, but ngl, Variety is variety.
@@luckywii8731 no it wasn't
@@luckywii8731 Wiggler is a god, your mortal form just can't understand
ok that’s it
playable coin
@@luckywii8731 Honey Queen? Probably. Wiggler? Hardly, since he's a recurring character and had been playable in spinoffs prior to Mario Kart 7. His inclusion makes sense.
I too would love to play as a Luma in Mario Kart instead of a Baby Version of Rosalina, someone who is basically Nintendo's "The Watcher."
Baby Rosalina serves zero purpose other than filler, just give us Luma as a playable character.
@@piranhalettuce Exactly. It just feels awkward playing as a Baby Version of a Celestial Space Guardian.
Baby Rosalina is my favorite character…
i agree luma is cooler than baby rosalina
I love how this guys takes the time to fully animate everything in this video and chareter while having an honest and true opinion while png tubers are lazy and lick boots to nintendo. This guy is cool
He's not really a pngtuber, from what I've seen atleast. He's more of just another animator, like JaidenAnimations or SomethingElseYT. He animates, not just slaps some lazy png on the screen as he talks.
Also yes, I hate PNG tubers.
6:40 well....nintendo listened
there putting birdo in game incase you didn't watch the latest direct
i find it funny how every problem people have with mario kart 8 deluxe is completely fixed when you go to mario kart tour, people immediately dismissed the game because of the gacha when its tracks (ninja hideaway, tokyo blur) are unironically incredible
tldr: port tour to switch so i can play this game on not a phone
He even mentions all the characters that were introduced in tour in the wave 2 pass
7:42
@@JosefTBB stuff like the custom badges and more mii suits exist in tour only and it makes me so sad even as a player of the game. i’d gladly give out an extra 10 bucks or so to have the mario kart 8 deluxe tour just so these things exist inside of 8
The biggest upsetting thing about the BCP is that Nintendo stripped tour from most users... The BCP is kinda the only way to play MKT tracks unfortunately... kinda a cash grab, but sadly it working, cause who would pass up double content for more than half the price? Not me, that's (almost) A steal! (Would've been a steal if they didn't get lazy with the graphics)
Yeah the character selection is insanely good but everything else about your kinda falls short
Obligatory 'Tour's controls are garbage' comment.
Really cool suggestions Mads, but I believe that they should really consider adding Wallace from the hit TV series Wallace and Gromit
6:36 this part didn’t age well
Lol
More like Nintendo actually listened
Couple things I want to say
1. That weight class organization from MKWii should be utilized more often in MK, so I agree with you.
2. I do like how you made the clones as character alts; gives the roster more room for new comers(though if ANOTHER baby character was added I'd say it should be Baby Luma as another Galaxy representative & to fill in the baby quota)
3. Speaking of newcomers, I love ALL the characters you chose for the DLC Waves! However, for the Team Mario Wave, the guest star to me should be either Kirby or Captain Falcon. My reason for Kirby is that Mario made cameos in his series before so I though it be cool as a lightweight. As for C. Falcon it's simple, HE HAS TWO OF HIS COURSES IN MK8! HOW CAN HE NOT BE A GUEST STAR NINTENDO?! C Falcon would be Mid-Heavy weight racer
*Off topic*
Foreman Spike is gonna be in the Mario movie?
-EDITIED-
Have more things on my mind to say
Alts-
Cool alt for character like Wario should be his biker clothes from the Warioware series(for obvious reasons). Another alt I would like to see is King Boo's designs from the Luigi's Mansion series.
Booster Racer Pack-
If one more character could be added into each of your packs, these would be my choices:
Team Mario Pack - Cappy
Reason is to not only have another representative for Mario Odyssey, but he's has to be Mario's best companion characters. I say this from a Major Mechanic, Tutorial, & Playable partner standpoint. Cappy would be a Lightweight.
Team Bowser Pack- Boom Boom or Pow Pow
Since 3D Land, I feel like we seen those show up frequently in of Mario mainline & spinoff titles nowadays. So either one of them showing up in the Team Bower Pack would great addition being recurring bosses. Their weight class would be Mid-Heavy .
Wild Pack- Banjo
Okay admittedly, this is a bit of guilty pleasure seeing how he guest starred in Diddy Kong Racing. I just thought returning in a racing game like Mario Kart be cool. Banjo weight class would be changed from Heavy to Medium weight.
Royal Pack- King K Rool
Like King Bob-Omb, King K Rool also served as a boss in 3DDK game, DK64. Not only that, he's been in numerous games, including Mario spinoff titles like Super Sluggers; so to me I feel like he would be good Royal Pack edition. King K Rool's weight class would be Heavy
Frantic Pack- Nabbit
Original was thinking of placing a character like Captain Syrup, but Nabbit won out in my mind. My reasonings is he would serve as Mario Bros U representative & he had playable appearances in spinoffs like Mario Golf World Tour. Nabbit weight class would be Light- Medium weight.
Ideas of mine that weren’t mentioned here:
Kirby has been an idea I’ve grown more and more fond over for this series as of late.
Captain Falcon has been on my wish list ever since Big Blue’s inclusion
Goomba because I think they should be in more Mario spin-offs
And Pac-Man because arcades
This man needs to gather a dev team and make his own fangame.
Nah he needs to be a dev for nintendo
Nintendo: Opsie. Doopsie. Zi. Bari. Du. Because i am a sucker. I'm gonna sue you.
@@imlivinginyourwalls9413 Nah. He’s too good to be sued.
Sadly Nintendo isn’t sega
Can we just appreciate the art in this video? This is the first video I watch from your channel but damn it’s just so good!!
Just in my honest opinion,Not trying to attack yours, but I think for the most part the original organisation system was pretty good.
Up top we have the famous humans of the group like Mario Luigi and Peach,
Below we have some of the non-human famous characters of Yoshi and Toad and some others,
Then we have some villains (Donkey Kong was one in the original Donkey Kong game,okay?)
And now the Koopa siblings or whatever the heck they’re called I can’t remember
And finally the non-mario characters grouped by their series!
In yours, I took about 7 seconds to find mario and he was stuck in the middle of the group hidden away.
That is not something you want from a game called MARIO kart.
Anyways,just my opinion so please don’t be annoyed.
Great video keep it up.❤
As i agree with all of these characters to be put in the game, i feel like Capitain Falcon deserves to have a spot too.
Ikr, there's the blue falcon kart and TWO f-zero tracks. Where's the cap himself??
Having greater outfit customization options for your Mii in Mario Kart would be a welcome change.
Also, I just gave your channel a subscription after watching your video on the issues with Switch Sports. I’m pleased to find another Mii enthusiast like you.
I know something they could change! Removing the helmet the Mii has to wear in every race!
@@juliannocartagena2007 Yes! Why they removed the option to take your Mii’s helmet off while racing is beyond me. They should return that option for your Mii in Mario Kart.
@@themightymrpink Um, they didn’t wear helmets at all in Wii and 7. They just forced them to wear them in 8 and Tour.
i was actually thinking of customization feature b4 this video of mario kart, so that they can add more better characters than pink golden peach
@@juliannocartagena2007 Oh.. my bad. I’ve never played Mario Kart Wii before. I’ve played Mario Kart 7 where helmets were not an option for the Miis, but were included in Mario Kart 8 without the option to take them off.
video aged like fine wine - 4 of these characters suggested are in the game now!
3 more
We need Mario Kart Wonder, go plan that. I already made some ideas for what I think it would be like
All your choices would definitely make me pick up Mario Kart again. You did an especially good job with the roster; I really like the visual style you gave all the characters. Great stuff, man!
I'm not actually a fan of the "give every character a metal version" idea, I think it would lose its appeal when you look at the other 11 racers on the track and half of them are expressionless metal blobs.
Ok but cobalt toad
@@KingLaZrButBad You make a good argument
@@KingLaZrButBad after playing him 1000 times
If metal variants are a problem, why not mix up some of the heavy forms with characters such as Giga Bowser (Unlikely since it's Smash Bros but we can dream), or Emperor Bulblax, or Cosmic Guardian?
@OpenThisSideUp Snifit for Shy Guy is genius.
11:16 E Gadd was originally meant to be in MKDS so it would be amazing to finally see him be added
I do think the Luigi’s Mansion King Boo would be a really cool addition - besides that, agree with pretty much everything said in this video! The game badly needs more characters.
I think that would be a skin for king boo through those online challenges
I never realized how much I wanted Foreman Spike in MK8D
He's in tour actually
Generally, I think the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe roster was order pretty alright:
Row 1 is about the main humans: the two plumbers and the three princesses. The primary protagonists, so to speak. Tanooki Mario and Cat Peach are there because they're power-up versions of two of those main humans.
Row 2 consists _mostly_ of ally characters and small enemies that fit well with said ally characters. There's ONE character that I believe should've been on a different row: King Boo would fit much better on Row 4.
Row 3 is basically a parallel of Row 1: The vanilla humans are now babies, and the power-up humans are now metallic humans.
Row 4 is dedicated towards the bad guys and rivals of the series, with Wario and Waluigi even on the rows parallel to Mario and Luigi, and DK and Bowser, who are often counterparts to each other, placed next to each other. Although, Dry Bones would fit better on Row 2 instead.
Row 5 is dedicated to the Koopalings, in order of size
Finally, Row 6 consists of all the crossover characters in the game. Including the Miis.
So yeah, there DOES seem to be some logic in the order of the character select screen of MK8Deluxe. The only characters I feel should've been swapped are Dry Bones and King Boo. King Boo, being a _big_ rival character, doesn't fit at all with the allies and small enemies on Row 2, and would've fit much better among other rival characters like Waluigi or Dry Bowser. Meanwhile, Dry Bones is not a significant rival character and probably is only on Row 4 because of Dry Bowser. However, Koopa Troopa isn't on Row 4 either, and as a small enemy, Dry Bones should've been among other small enemies like Shy Guy or Lakitu.
I feel like a Booster Character Pass would have double the characters as well, so I would dedicate similar themes across the board (with except babies and Koopalings being replaced by new themes, or things would get too unoriginal).
Row 7: More main humans, significant non-human characters, and power-ups (Pauline, Honey Queen, Peachette)
Row 8: More smaller/friendly-looking enemy types (Monty Mole, Wiggler, Birdo)
Row 9: Donkey Kong characters (Diddy Kong, Funky Kong, Donkey Kong Jr)
Row 10: WarioWare characters (Mona, Jimmy T, Ashley)
Row 11: Bowser's troops that don't look as friendly, and maybe some remaining rival characters (Kamek, Boom Boom, King Bob-omb)
Row 12: More crossover characters (Min Min, Kirby, R.O.B.)
Why do you talk so formally
@@PhantomOfficial07 ....what? What's so formal about this?
@@ArendAlphaEagle You're just speaking very formal
Swap Dry Bines and King Boo and it's perfect!!
@MayorBryce Pokemon's not fully owned by Nintendo, I wouldn't really have any interest in it either
R.O.B WAS GOATED
SAY IT LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK 🔥
R.O.B in the whip
Everyone talk about rob, but no one talk about pac man who was exclusive to the arcade versions.
true
R.O.B. my beloved (he's my ds main)
props to madz for including a paper mario character 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
I love your videos, it really feels that you put so much effort 👌
For the Pikmin rep, the character should be a pile of each type of Pikmin stacked on top of one another
Or just normal sized pikmins riding on the mushroom guy
A bunch of Pikmin standing on top of a Bulborb while two Winged Pikmin drive. That could even lead into a Bulbmin skin!
yes, that would be hilarious
I feel like the Pikmin Rep could be something like "Pikmin Stack" where the base has all 7 Pikmin Types in the cart, and each color being unlockable through the online, and Rock Pikmin being the Metal varient
Hm, but wouldn't it make sense to have all of the colors be their own colors?
Idea: the character itself is Olamar, but in a subfolder the 7 pikmin variants and Bulborb are also selectable!
Man this video was amazing, and even if it wasn't the visual presentation alone makes this video worth giving a like.
Seriously keep up the good work.
I’m watching this in October of 2023 and it’s weird to me that he got all the characters except one right that are either added or going to be added like not all of them but six of them and five of the six were right. It made me wonder if he either helped or someone at Nintendo saw this video
Honestly, Mario Kart Wii is still my favorite Mario Kart of all time. The roster is fantastic, the tracks are stellar, and the music is fantastic. The game was basically my whole childhood.
no petey, no play.
@@carnage0685 no funkey no dunkey
Just had the most stressful night, thank you for posting this when I needed it!!
hope you'll get better soon! :)
@@baguettelander Thank you so much! :)
Hope your day goes better
Same, saw this and instantly happy.
Did I ask thou
I love the effot and art you put into these videos. Your art style is so cute and amazing!
I absolutely LOVE your character!!!!!especially the style!
This video is just... *chef's kiss*
Not only your ideas are incredible and with the addition of new tracks can easily make a new Mario Kart game that I would be genuinely excited for, with clever ideas that are actually not overboard and actually plausible but I love your character selection, though imo they should actually complement the Booster Course Pass to make something like a MK8DX Booster Pass with characters and tracks.
And oh my god, the visuals on this... ARE AMAZING!
Not only you have remade the entire UI extremely accurately and added your style on the character icons, made some incredible, Nintendo-like visuals with the "ShinGo" official font and the checkerboards and just wow, your style in general with your animation and your artstyle, are super stunning and soothing to look at, especially the colors.
thank you so much for the kind words!! seriously reading this gave me a huge smile and it means a lot :]
@@GetMadz haha no problem, i love your content and i'm glad that i've made you smile :)
keep up the good stuff :D
2:07 First row: Main characters
Second: secondary characters
Third: alternate version characters
Fourth: Villains
Fifth: koopalings
Sixth: Dlc characters and mii
Wow I never noticed that that's how it's was arranged. Thanks
kinda surprised Nabbit or Kirby werent mentioned, but i love the characters you decided to add back in the game and introduce them to the franchise :]
if we gonna add the alt costumes they should work like what they did with shy guys, yoshis inklings, and the mii costume
example: you select king boo but then the same window Appear Showing us the alt costumes for King boo, all them from tour and i know some variants have exclusive animations when they do a trick
Mii brawler needs to be in the game 💀
Just make 1
@John Miller I think it’s a joke
"Where is Birdo, get Birdo in the bloody game, right now!"
*you predicted the future*
As some sort of reflex, I actually threw my fist up and wooted at King Bob-Omb's appearance. He's not something I ever expected or thought of as a playable mario kart character, and he's not a character I even think of very much outside of mario 64, but apparently I have a deep-rooted excitement for him as a character and I think he'd be a fantastic addition to the roster.
I feel like the “before” image should be the “after” image and viceversa. Damn would it be cool to have Petey Piranha in MK again
10:24 *does anyone else remember fearing his foot steps when you were ahead of him and then just screaming when he was in his final form as a kid or even now*
Great video, I love these ideas!! I'd love to see this stuff added. One extra idea - if they wanted to go the extra mile, maybe each DLC character comes with a course that matches them in some way, whether it is new or returning. Since there are 4 characters in each wave, there could also be a new cup added, with one course matching each character. I'm curious to see where the Mario Kart series will go from here! I haven't played the game in a while, maybe I should go both it up again...
Madz:I'm gonna fix the roster without adding new characters
Also madz:Also I replaced baby rosalina
I remember when The Original Mariokart 8 brought Link into the game and me and my friends were freaking out on the couch while playing MK8. And then I remember one of us spoke out. If they had the idea to add Link, what about a character such as Captain Falcon? A Famous Racing Game Character.
Falcon should be in given the blue falcon, big blue, mute city and a mii costume for him airway exist
lmao 12:13 obligatory single curse word to keep TH-cam from shoving this video into TH-cam Kids
Absolutely love this video my personal most wanted mariokart character has to be Kirby almost was surprised he wasn't one of the DLC characters for 8 back when it came out.
6:47 what’s funny is that there is a Mariokart hotwheels collection that has Diddy Kong in the pipe frame and Mach 8. Nintendo literally knows what Diddy Kong would look like in the game, so why don’t they just put him in?
Well I have good news for you buddy
@@RiftComix WE GOT EM!
Just imagining Plessie in a car happily steamrolling the other competitors makes my day, what a sick idea Madz.
1. I love how much effort was put into this video! 👍
2. It's kinda funny how it seems like you're describing what Mario Kart Tour did with all the new Characters to that franchise, but convert it to Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. I know it's hard to accept, but Tour is an official title in the series, which already tried a lot new things. Admitted not in the best possible way... 👀
3. 12:18 that's sadly not a Thwomp, but a Whomp. Not a major mistake, a lot of people confuse those two, but I just had to mention it, because I played Mario 64s Whomp's Fortress alot 😅
Great Video! Really well made!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I LITERALLY REMEMBER R.O.B. FROM MARIO KART ON THE DS. My brother used to always play as him and then we got the game that he’s from and then he became our main racer for all of our online races. This brought back millions of memories. Thanks Madz!
4:49 This is possibly one of the worst ideas that I honestly would hate to see make it into the game. First, not everybody has Nintendo Switch Online. Second, I'm sure everybody can agree that restricting content (especially "skins") for higher skilled players is very bad. Third, completionists would have to do 1000 races for each of the characters (an absurd amount of time). Fourth, how would it feel for a new player to see loads of locked content right when they open the game? Please, please think about all of the community before saying stuff like "you would have to win an online tourney to unlock variants" what about less-skilled players? Don't make content exclusive to a certain time or only for elite players.
well of course the time is supposed to be absurd how else would people know ur a master at the character? haha
also nintendo dont seem to have a problem with locking content behind their online right now haha, they did it with aces, I think that just because the online service sucks, it shouldn't disrupt fun ideas that are inspired by online-service games
With all of your character choices I was screaming out in agreement and joy at seeing these beloved characters. I really want the penguin and King Bomb. Loved your drawings.
Madz: And after spending so much time looking at-
My Earbuds: Battery Low!
Lovely video! I loved the art and displays!
The only character I might add to your list would be Wart! Your list had a lot of my top choices already
The character roster organization kinda made sense to me:
Row 1: Plumbers & Princesses
Row 2: Supporting Cast
Row 3: Babies (and metals)
Row 4: Bad Guys
Row 5: Koopalings
Row 6: Guests
The Koop slings are bad guys
And donkey Kong barely makes sense as a bad guy
@@themewer Sure, but the Koopalings already have their own rows, and Donkey Kong originally debuted as a villain. Same with Wario.
4:44 actually made me wheeze tho
Dude I lovvvveee your ideas!
Funky Kong be like
-Appears in Wii
-Becomes new meta
-Hasn't reappeared to this day
-Refuses to elaborate further
I would genuinely love a Mario Kart that has a roster using characters throughout the franchise and the spin-offs. Imagine racing against Vivian, Geno, King K. Rool, Fawful, Mona, and even Burt the Bashful.
the only one I think can be introduced to a Mario kart of them is K. Rool because he already was in some Mario sports games, but yeah, it would be nice if they added fawful, cackletta and some of them
goomboss really would be a nice addition
he should like return in the mainline mario series
I absolutely adore your art style!!!!
such a great video, good ideas and the animation is cool
Oh god, I genuinely don’t know how to feel about the metal idea… On one hand, yay, it’s an option to make lightweights heavier, and it’ll probably look cool. But a metal option for every heavyweight? Metal Dry Bowser? What even? Also having two metal characters was enough to get flack from fans, so this kind of stunt would give those fellas an absolute field day.
Also I feel like if the roster blew up to this size, Nabbit would be inevitable. Just sayin
@Flybreaker Footage I imagined him looking similar to mechagodzilla 2021
Well gold metal dry bowser is in tour soooo
I feel like everyone is missing the main problem of races being filled with nothing but metal variations of characters which would look weird and stupid
I think this whole roster should be in besides pikman, I’d replace him with captain falcon there is already 4 Fzero things in game and I think he should be a heavy weight racer
When you unlock Thwomp, he also gets you a special item that you can use whenever. It's the only item he can get and it's called "Thwomps Revenge". It's like the pow block except it instantly kills everyone on the track and ends the game, placing him in first place automatically.
Revenge for all the games Mario won
That's stupid.
@@darkstartm2292 It would be op, but it's not stupid.
Hey, Guess what? PETEY PIRANHA, KAMEK, AND WIGGLER ARE COMING BACK!!!!
Wow, this whole video is so well put together! I hope Nintendo uses some/all of the ideas you presented here!
I think Donkey Kong would be a real nice addition as well. He’s basically the O.G. and hasn’t made a lot of appearances, I think.
All the art for this video was amazing, it’s insane that you did this much art for one video. Everything looks like gummy.
I really like the ideas and concept and wouldn't agree more with many of the ideas plus tons of new ones. And what's interesting is how the hated Mobile game, Mario Kart Tour (which I don't find bad when you look past the strict and unforgiving rubies and gacha which should be redone a bit), has actually brought back some older characters like Diddy Kong and Funky Kong but has also brought new characters to the roster too like Pauline, Birdo, Hammer Bros., Kamek, King Bob-Omb, etc. which even some of these were ones you mentioned. Even some skins like Meowser and tons of other new and unique characters were part of Tour as well. I think that Mario Kart should have all of these new characters, skins/alternate costumes, new tracks, customizations, etc. It all can work if they do it correctly and put a lot of time and effort into it. I honestly wanna see the Koopalings get their own unique skins personally as they haven't gotten anything since launch but I could see some ideas for them, though mainly for my boi Iggy. But to put it short, Larry could be a Pirate or Train Conductor, Lemmy could have a Circus Master outfit, Wendy could wear some swimming gear or an outfit for ice skating, Roy could have a DJ outfit with cool headphones and such, Morton could be like an Egyptian Pharaoh (or maybe a statue of one or could be a neat animation like with Tanooki Mario doing tricks), and Ludwig could wear a fancy suit with music note decorations. But with my boi Iggy, some ideas I have could include a clockworks/mechanical look to where his outfit or entire being is mechanical, a Doctor/Mad Scientist outfit to show his craziness, or maybe even a unique Dry Iggy skin where I stead of the usual Dry Bones look or the molten Colors of Dry Bowser, maybe Dry Iggy could have a Purple Poisonous glow.
But that's just my ideas. Sorry for the rambling.
Wow as a creator I can just see how much time you put in this. Love it!! And you are probably happy with the few character editions. What do you think Diddy in next one?
your thumbnails are always bangers omg
Idea for Wave 6:
“Cross Pack” (For the Crossover Characters)
-Sonic The Hedgehog
-Pac-Man
-Marth from Fire Emblem
-Captain Falcon
As much as I would LOVE Marth in the game, you know that it will become another Smash scenario where people go 'Now that trash weeb anime franchise is in Mario Kart?!'
never played any fire emblem game so i can only imagine marth racing in anti gravity on a horse
not like a master cycle kinda thing, just a regular horse
instead of marth, i'd go with samus or maybe the excitebiker himself as an awesome nod to the track.
@@thepsycheduck or Marth and samus
I'd probably replace Marth and Captain falcon with the characters from the Mario Kart Arcade game, they need a lot of love too 🤣
Bro I feel like Nintendo listened to this guy, because now Nintendo added birdo, they are adding Petey piranha, they are adding wiggler, AND they are adding kamek lol.
7:14 hows this for an idea: all 7 pikmin are driving the kart! Three on the pedals, four on the steering wheel? Every time the character would do an emote, all the pikmin would kinda just splash out of the cockpit
I feel like making every character and kart part have the same stats would be the best way to fix mario karts balance. By making every character and kart part have the same speed, weight, acceleration, handling, etc, you’d have every single character and car part be equally viable.
The number of times I have seen that purple f(censored) Waluigi on that stupid looking Wild Wiggler and those dumb Roller tires makes me want to rip my hair out. Those people are unfun tryhards and I just immediately leave the lobby whenever I see them.
It could ve like ctr where you are allowed to change the states of any car of vehicle you are playing
4:25 I blame Wigger Wednesday for the Waluigi phenomenon.
true
Nintendo's should definitely add more racers and I have hopes that they might. They're porting maps from Tour so maybe they'll do the same with their characters?
he inspired nintendo to add birdo... and that's it
4:36 man went from 😄 to ☠️
