I don't like the idea of a "Nintendo Kart" instead of a Mario Kart. However, I'm fine with a "Nintendo Racing" crossover that's more in-line with Sonic All-stars or any number of car combat/arcade racers with characters in their own vehicles rather than cartoony go-karts & bikes. Have Captain Falcon in the Blue Falcon, Samus in her ship, Fox in a landmaster, a car from Stunt Race FX, Bowser in his pimp-mobile from 3D World etc.

I'm against the idea of Nintendo Kart too, I simply love the creativity behind the devs on each new track, they made a bath themed track super fun and when allowed can revamp old mid tracks into something way more fun, and all of this could be lost if they were forced to work with established places from some games, Smash can barely add new themes without feeling repetitive, I don't want the same for MK.

I feel like it'll be presented as a nitro track because Tour's non-city nitros were presented in the Booster Course Pass as 8 Deluxe nitros.

Quite honestly, I really dont want Nintendo Kart. It would be a gateway for Nintendo to put all of their IP's into all of their spinoffs (party games, sports games etc.) and it would decrease the interest in crossovers immediately. Let Mario be Mario.

Genuinely the only thing I'd change here is that I feel like Chain Chomp would be awkward in Mario Kart as a racer, since he'd only be able to steer with his mouth(unless you addressed that in the video I just skimmed through it ngl I could be wrong). Though realistically his spot could be any large Mario enemy, like Boom Boom or Chargin Chuck. In general both of these rosters feel entirely possible for their respective purposes, not feeling too unrealistic

if nintendo ever made a nintendo kart, theyd HAVE to have sonic as a secret third party character, its such a low hanging fruit, especially for a crossover racing game

When I did my Mario Kart fan roster, I did "Everybody's Here." When I last updated it, at least not since Poochy was added to Turour. I went for 6 weight classes to get everybody on it. Eather, Light, Middle, Cruser, Heavy, Monster. The Kooplings, Bower Jr. Boom Boom, and Pom Pom were all spread out two per weight class, with Bower being in monster. They could be the opponents if they wanted a Story Mode this time. Also had a version of Mario in every weight class, Also a Kong but it worked out that way I didn't aim for it. I added Ninj, Cappy, Luma, E.Gadd, Zelda, Ganondorf, and K.Roll. Captain Toad, Captain Falcon, Pit. Ocotoling, Dr. Mario, Mewoser, Ashliy, and Formen Spike. Think I started making the Rouster before Palune was in Turror. And for the Final Challenge and unlockable fighter, somebody in his own character class. Sonic! He has the best stats in the game, but since he's running, not driving, he gets pushed around by everything and might need to rest if he gets banged up to mutch.

The wide reach of the courses in the non smash-cart side gave me inspiration, maybe we split the difference and the game is only mario characters, but goes loose with the definition of Mario characters. We are already allowed to have a few kongs and poochie, so why not open it up more? Get spin-off representation with Vivian and falafel, get wario land representation with captain syrup, warioware rep with jimmy T and Mona, mansion rep with Egadd, and peach showtime with a sparkla.

Obviously it's not on your list of rosters at the end of the video, but I'd like to suggest the idea of a Fire Emblem fighting game (perhaps to take the Zelda FG spot after your patreon members choose it) as I think a roster of the franchise's characters without the stigmatized impression they have from Smash could really show people what the franchise as a whole is all about, at least as far as variety in fighting styles, especially if it were to mix unique lord characters with regular class characters that could represnt numerous less important characters from throughout the franchise.

Content speculation for future games can be a fun topic, and I have another one for you. You mentioned it in this video and it's a fan favorite, so here's a suggestion: what sort of content could we see in a Kirby Air Ride sequel? We've had a LOT of Kirby since that game's come out, so there's no shortage of material to pull from. I would be curious to see how you'd handle a video like that.

I’m glad the Metroid track being a section level with an escape sequence idea I’ve liked for a long time made it into the video. Never thought about making the finish line Samus’s ship though, that’s really good.

Same here. Especially if they stick to keeping crossovers to a minimum, and it would still be a way to bring in Captain Falcon

This is all so much fun to imagine, I soooo hope that the next MK is truly a crossover along these lines. The crossover tracks are the most exciting prospect, and I hadn't even really considered them before. Woah excitebiker is an interesting pick, how do you imagine him being depicted visually? I love these roster videos! Looking forward to more in the future!

If we're getting Nintendo Kart, then its only fair to use it to revive the Double Dash concept with Mario Kart continuing to be its own thing.

This is really cool to see! Admittedly though, I do feel like there’s a few too many Mario Bros. clones in Roster A; counting the babies, Metal, Doctor, Paper and Gooigi, it seems to be generally just a bit much and kinda dampens the more exciting aspect of picking out a roster - namely going for more exciting choices or deep cuts while sticking to the source material. Characters like Penny, Fawful or Vivian would have been really exciting to see. Regardless though, amazing video overall, you put tons of work into this and it shows!

I agree that there are too many Mario Bro variations, but I also don't think we'll see characters from the RPGs make the jump into any kind of Mario kart or sports games. That's the domain of the mainline Mario & DK games. It's usually because they can reuse assets from those games with no issues. Though it would be nice to see some more Wario characters like Penny & Ashley.

I want Mario Kart Legacy. A game that brings in characters from all kinds of spin-offs. Vivian and Kammy from Paper Mario. Fawful and Starlow from Mario and Luigi. Mallow and Geno from Mario RPG. Some weird human from the old Mario sports games. That kinda stuff. And cups would be themed around eras of the Mario franchise. A set of arcade themed courses, NES, SNES, N64, GC, Wii, and Switch. Alongside 7 retro course cups, and the special cup that would have a multi-franchise one lap crossover course, a Mario Party themed track, and the new Bowser’s Castle and Rainbow Road.

With the Switch 2 (most likely) being backwards compatible, that would mean Mario Kart 8 Deluxe would still be available to purchase. I think that the next game needs to go in an entirely different direction to stand out from the massive amount of content that MK8D has That direction being… hear me out… an open world similar to those seen in the Forza Horizon and Need for Speed franchises! A large map with many setpieces based on various established Mario universe themes (grasslands, deserts, tundras, a jungle, a city, a volcano). Throughout the map would be Toads/other NPCs that when talked to will set up a race course or battle course or maybe even some DS style missions within the open world for the player to complete (with an option to select these things from the main menu for multiplayer of course) DLC could be handled similar to Forza too, have a costal town area with a ferry that takes the player to some smaller islands, maybe themed after other Nintendo franchises (Hyrule, Animal Crossing, Inkopolis, Wuhu Island?) As a patron, I’ll totally be voting for the Zelda Fighting Game!

While the concept of a “Nintendo Kart” is intriguing, Mario Kart should remain true to its roots. Smash Bros. is the only franchise I’m interested to see another installment of.

32:13 YES! I was thinking about Spring Man and The Trainee throughout the guyst portion, I think they’d be awesome guest characters for the next mario kart

This might be the best video that you've made. So much thought went into it

While I like the Zebes Escape idea, I think a somewhat less-hectic Metroid rep track would also be good. My suggestion: Brinstar. It could start in the Green Vegetation area, gradually sloping down into the Red Rocky Soil area, boost back up and take a quick trip into Kraid's Lair, then a bit more Green Vegetation before looping. On the first lap, things are quiet... too quiet. There are no enemies as track hazards and the atmosphere is subdued. Just before crossing the lap line, a security eye opens and spots the first driver over the line, alerting the Zebesian forces to the racers' presence, kicking things into higher gear. Alien creatures crawl out of the walls and become a nuisance, and Kraid emerges partway in his lair. On the last lap, some sections of grating that formed part of the track have broken open, exposing pits populated by Samus-Eaters (the toothy rafflesia-like plants) to avoid. Kraid has fully emerged and spits rocky detritus that rains down in the last stretch. And besides the hostile beings, both the Etecoons and Dachora, the friendly "animals", also live in Brinstar. The Etecoons could drop extra item blocks onto the track, and Dachora could speed-boost and break open a shortcut at some point. And there you have it! The longest comment I've ever posted...

I’m personally not a fan of the “Smash Kart” idea, but cool to see an idea for both sides of the same coin.

I saw this cool fanart of Pyra on a motorcycle with her aegis blade holding front wheels axel, only crossover character I need.

Just needs Vangarre showing his soldiers how to drive the mobile artillery _without_ crashing it into a house... In all seriousness, Xenoblade has so many locations that would be perfect for race courses. Mechonis Field springs immediately to mind for a track with a darker, weirder take on Tick Tock Clock's theming, as does Mor Ardain - half of it a street circuit running through Alba Cavanich, the other half heading off-road through its desertified surrounds... Tantal, too, would make for a fantastic track layout with its epic, spiralling ruins and icy slides. As for Aionios, the City is a standout (if spoilery) option but I'd also love to see Maktha Wildwood - don't think we've seen a 'ruined city' track in Mario Kart before - and I imagine that you could do some wild things with glider sections in the Keves Castle Region.

I have some ideas for potential Sonic content: -Characters: Sonic (M), Tails (M), Dr. Eggman (L) Emerald Cup Idea 1: Just because it's only Sonic characters running the race, doesn't mean Sonic's fellow all-stars aren't given service. -Seaside Hill (The seeming default when it comes to Sonic and racing games, racers speed through a beautiful beach environment as well as portions of Ocean Palace, avoiding Egg Pawns and rolling wheels along the way) -Samba Carnival (Race through the festive streets of a Latin-American town while Amigo and his crew celebrate from the sidelines) -Tokyo-to (Understand the concept of love as you drive through a 90s-esque urban landscape. Try not to run into Beat and Gum as they skate by) -Dream Valley (Fly around the beautiful Spring Valley level, featuring plenty of glider segments to harken to the game of origin. If you look carefully, you can spot NiGHTS themselves flying alongside you) Emerald Cup Idea 2: Just plain old Sonic based tracks -Seaside Hill -Chemical Plant (the second most brought back level in the series, the pink Mega Mack lends itself to decent stretches of underwater driving) -Casino Park (another grab from Heroes, this sectioned course takes you along glamorous streets and even a giant pinball table) -Egg Speedway (an original course designed by Eggman to put racers through the paces, Egg Pawns, crushing pistons, and maybe a Death Egg Robot serve to impede you as you race through this industrial shell of evil)

If we get a Nintendo Kart (and I REALLY hope we do), I want it to stand out more and have a separate identity from Mario Kart. I remember watching a video made by RelaxAlax that captured an awesome style. Basically, take Disney Speedstorm (minus the microtransactions) and the first Sonic and Sega All-Stars racing, with a pinch of the Mario Sports titles for a brand new kart racer that makes every character stand out with their own style. -Everyone gets their own vehicle. -Characters grouped by archetype and driving style rather than just weight. -Give characters either a unique super ability or a bunch of gimmicky quirks (Captain Falcon could basically be the exact same as his original series, energy bar and all.) The end result? The Super Smash bros. of kart racing! Balancing might be complicated, but it would also be really fun.

How the hell is Chain Chomp supposed to drive a kart, this is like Goombas playing baseball all over again

Excellent work, and I would like to see Xenoblade Warriors or Smash 6 stages. I also have a couple ideas for DLC Pegasus Cup- adds Anna from Fire Emblem and courses are based around Judrgal, Elibe, Daiein and a mix of Ylisse, Hoshido/Nohr and Fodlan. Mondo Cup- adds Ethier Riki, Tora, Riku or Manana. Courses are based on the different worlds. Sega Cup- adds Sonic and courses based on Ethier Classic sonic stages or rip out Sega All Stars. Capcom Cup- adds MegaMan and courses are based on fire, electric, ice/water and construction robot masters or different Capcom games. Final Fantasy Cup- adds Chocobo and Mog and stages are based on the four elemental crystals.

I really don’t care if they go with the Nintendo Kart or Mario Kart route, but either way, I just want to play as Captain Falcon.

You have just the right voice and creativity for this space! Love what you’re bringing to the table and the two alternate ways to look at it; I think you found a way to please everyone and bring your own perspectives to the table!

Rainbow Road Concept, you start in a Street Road in a City, then each player goes in a rocket ship and boosts all the way up to space till they land and they do some turns around planets, then 2nd lap, they go inside Jupiter, and there’s rocks inside to watch out for, then the final lap they land in a forgotten planet and do some tricks and turns there then leave and make a fall from space to earth with a gorgeous final lap music playing as players fall then take 1 final turn and you completed the race

They should just do what 8 did and have a few crossover characters and tracks in a DLC. The people who want non Mario characters get them and the people who want it to stay Mario Kart keep it like that. Win situation for both sides.

Small: 1. Toad (alts include different colors, Toadsworth, and Captain Toad) 2. Toadette (alts include different colors and Captain Toadette) 3. Baby Mario (alts include other babies) 4. Koopa Troopa (alts include Dry Bones, Paratroopa, Koops, and Kooper) 5. Diddy Kong (Dixie Kong as an alt) 6. Shy Guy (alts include different colors) 7. Prince Florian 8. Lady Bow 9. Mallow 10.

Fawful Large: 1. Bowser (alts include Dry Bowser, Wedding Bowser, and Meowser) 2. Rosalina (alts include Cosmic Rosalina) 3. Lubba 4. Grape 5. Donkey Kong (alts include Funky Kong) 6.

Rool (alts include Kaptain and Baron) The Metal Box is an item because I will NOT have Metal Mario or Pink Gold Peach wasting space on the roster!

FINALLY, Paper Mario. god, that's overdue by now, right?

Great ideas, I really like what you came up with! The non-Mario character and course choices are well-thought-out. It's hard to say whether Mario Kart should stick primarily to Mario, or branch out into "Nintendo Kart". If it was the latter, maybe it would be better as a kind of spin-off, with different mechanics in some way, rather than being "the next Mario Kart". If I was in charge, I'd add (unlockable?) costumes for each character (or at least, most of them), like Fire/Ice/Raccoon/etc for most of the "core" cast, or having the Baby or Koopaling characters all be costumes (so they only take up one "spot"), as a way to add more variety; Dr. Mario and Gooigi could be costumes too, for instance. MK Tour has a lot of costumes/variations already, so they could all be brought in. Granted, this would probably be a lot of extra work, if custom animations were involved. I'd also add these Mario characters to the consideration list: Goomba, Monty Mole, Hammer Bro, Boom Boom/Pom Pom, Wart (a really deep cut!), Pianta, the Broodals from Odyssey, the Shiverians also from Odyssey (mostly because they're cute), Raphael Raven from Yoshi's Island, and maybe even Mary O. from Mario Maker (another "deep cut", or at least an unexpected choice).

Absolutely no shot Nintendo allows "Death" to be in the name of a Mario Kart track

That hookshot item literally sounds like the rope item from Lego Racers. I would find it hilarious if Nintendo actually took an idea directly from one of the first kart racers i ever played. Also, seeing my boy Kirby in ario Kart after that was teased in Rosalina's Sm4sh trailer would make me very happy. Dedede would be an instant main for me in a "Nintendo kart" game btw.

These are both very inticing ideas, I think you did a great job exploring both. As cool as a Nintendo crossover with the same love and creativity as Smash being put into a racing game would be, if I had to choose, I think I'd rather take more of roster A that explores more of the Mario universe. At the same time I'd keep crossovers to a minimum so as long as they fit the Mario universe in some way. I think what was brought in 8 and 8 deluxe can stay, and I'd personally stick to an Octoling, Kirby and Captain Falcon as the new crossover picks (with maybe ROB coming back). As enticing as it would be to have more non-Mario characters, I feel like that could easily fall into the same pitfalls as Smash when it comes to people debating who should get in next. Here's hoping Nintendo takes a page from CTR's character picks for when they're making the next Mario Kart.

This is my idea for the DLC of both your ideas: DLC Racers: Set 1: Baby Peach Baby Daisy Baby Rosalina Baby Wario (NEW) Jimmy T. (NEW) 9-Volt (NEW) Paper Luigi (NEW) Larry Morton Wendy Iggy Roy Lemmy Ludwig Koopa General (NEW) Cranky Kong (NEW) Set 2: Tingle (NEW) Tom Nook (NEW) K.K. Slider (NEW) Mr. Resetti (NEW) Spring Man (NEW) Ribbon Girl (NEW) Dark Samus (NEW) Sylux (NEW) Dark Pit (NEW) Palutena (NEW) Bandana Waddle Dee (NEW) Louie (NEW) Alph (NEW) Falco (NEW) Samurai Goroh (NEW) Pac-Man (NEW) Egg Cup: Airship Fleet Wii Toad's Factory SNES Mario Circuit 1 Surface of SR388 ARMS Cup: Spring Circuit 3DS Maka Wuhu Silence DS Desert Hills Arwing Cup: Namco Stadium N64 Moo Moo Farm Hyrule Castle Wii U Sweet Sweet Canyon Bell Cup: Vexing Volcano GBA Luigi Circuit Fountain of Dreams GCN Rainbow Road Extra Items: Yellow Shell (works like a Green Shell, except it breaks upon hitting anything and everything, even other racers) Triple Yellow Shell (the same as the Yellow Shell, except in a three-pack) Power Balloon (should work like in a ROM Hack called SMKDX) Boost Power (creates a phantasmic track above the existing one like in F-Zero 99 that grants a temporary speed buff, but only appears between 9th Place and 12th Place) Superspicy Curry (works like a Fire Flower on autopilot) Brr-Chucks (can freeze opponents solid) Power Pellet (works like a Super Star, except foes hit suffer effects similar to the dreaded Blue Shell)

So I got to pitch this track idea I've had a while. I love the idea of a track that is inside of a museum. Driving through exhibits, on bones, into the back collection area. I think you could theme this around Captain Toad. Have each area be themed on a place he visited in his own game, and many of the exhibits/statues and such is things in the game or from the wider Mario universe. Also could have collectibles and such in the collections room showing all the stuff you could collect.

I think a good idea for the cossover game is to have alternate outfits/colors for characters. Kirby could have the rest of the kirby colors like yellow, green, red, and blue. Meta Knight could have 3 alts based on Dark Meta Knight, Galacta Knight, and Morpho Knight. Inklings and Octolings could have outfits based on Agent 3, Agent 4, and Agent 8. Pit could have a Dark Pit alt.

Nintendo Kart is something that everyone has been thinking of and it seems super fun, I'd be really happy with all the different unique characters and items

Instead of "Nintendo Kart", I really wish they took that concept of Smash-like but to the Mario universe, having characters from spin-offs like Fawful, Starlow, Dimentio, Olly, etc

This was a fun video! I really enjoyed the presentation of it all.

I think it’s good for Mario kart to keep a heavy focus on the Mario universe, but I really want to see more characters and tracks from other IP’s. I’ve really wanted to see Kirby, Samus and Octolings in Mario kart for quite some time

Both of these ideas sound awesome! While I normally don't play the Mario kart games, I would consider it if any of these ideas came to fruition, especially the crossover idea! Also, how could you forget about Donkey Kong Junior?

A nintendo kart game without Pokemon and Fire emblem would be confusing. I think adding Marth and Red&Pikachu combo would be pretty cool. Your extra additions would be spot on for a base roster or dlc i think. Great video

ayy, congrats on reaching 30k subscribers

I really enjoyed this video! Sometimes I watch these and just violently disagree because they take it too far, where it doesn’t feel like the same franchise anymore. Eventhough you took creative liberties that might not actually happen, it feels very well thought out and grounded within the franchise!

I like the idea of a Mario Kart crossover!

This would be great as a one-off thing, though honestly it would get tired of done more.

I would like to see costumes, which would include both palette swaps and new designs. Tour sort of had this, but they were entirely separate characters. Would be easier to balance because they’d have the same stats, and it would be a good way to add in things like cat Mario and Dr. Mario without people complaining that they take up a spot. Plus, it would be another easy way to monetize the game with costume DLC.

Escape From Zebes would either be amazing or incredibly anxiety-inducing. I'm all for it 😆

It’s a crime that we still don’t have any WarioWare characters in Mario Kart

I think this format would be nice if combined. 5 tracks per cup, 4 nitro cups of each. Plus, I think 8 cups of retros would be amazing.

I think if we got a crossover one, we might see Pac-Man and Mametchi; since they've both been in arcade Mario Kart games, and are both Bandai Namco characters. Oh, and I definitely think we'd see a Xenoblade stage. Since they're technically in-house now, and those locations are too incredible not to pluck one from.

If Roster A got DLC, I think it’d be a good idea to have some of Paper Mario’s partners be added as playable characters. Limiting it to just Paper Mario himself for the base game makes sense, after all I think you’d need at least 3 partners playable in the game otherwise something would feel off, and that might be too high a number for a base roster. So DLC provides a perfect opportunity for them.

Geno, Vivian, Kirby, Samus and Fox are probably newcomers.

23:41 Peter Griffin jumpscare

“This is the Monado Mobile’s horse Power!!”

Am I the only one that has thought of Gooper Blooper? I feel like he would go well alongside King Boo, Petey Piranha, and King Bob-omb.

I’d rather not have a full crossover situation, but a couple characters and a track or two is fine. I do think Fox with an Arwing vehicle and themed track could be very fun.

Tysm for recognising that Kirby is a second party character, so many people dont aknowledge that :p

This is a great video!

For one, Tour is seen as a mainline Mario Kart game to Nintendo. But besides that, they’d probably do Min Min or Twintelle over Spring Man on account of their popularity. If anything, I’d put one of them over Pit or Fox in the base roster.

Roster: Returning Mario & Co Veterans: Medium Racers: Mario Luigi Peach Daisy Diddy Kong Yoshi Birdo Small Racers: Bowser Jr Dry Bones Koopa Troopa Toad Toadette Kamek Shy Guy Large Racers: Rosalina & Luma (I miss when Luma would float around Rosalina like in MKWii, so I'm voting to return to that) Wario Waluigi Bowser Donkey Kong Funky Kong King Boo Pauline R.O.B Newcomers: Medium Racers: Hammer Bro Geno Ashley Small Racers: Prince Florian Ninji E Gadd Large Racers: King K Rool Guest Characters: Medium Racers: Link Zelda Fox Pit Marth Shulk Small Racers: Kirby Isabelle Inkling/Octoling Olimar Large Racers: Samus Captain Falcon Cups: Crossing Cup Hyrule Circuit (Zelda) Aeropolis Slopes (F-Zero) Corneria Cruise (Star Fox) Island Retreat (Animal Crossing) Splat Cup: Destroyed Skyworld (Kid Icarus) Great Cave Escape (Kirby) Forest of Hope (Pikmin) Inkopolis Junction (Splatoon) Metroid Cup: Ghoul’s Teeth (Fire Emblem) Temple of Time (Zelda) Phantom Road (F-Zero) Phendrana Riftway (Metroid) Triforce Cup Phazon Caverns (Metroid) Prison Island Breakout (Xenoblade) Halberd Halls (Kirby) Gloom’s Approach (Zelda)

While not a fan of the Nintendo Kart idea, Cap Falcon deserves a place in a Mario Kart roster if F-Zero is not coming back at least doing something like that could work

Crossover would make sense for Mario Kart 10, with an "X" marking said crossover

This was a pretty fun vid. I think after seeing what both versions of this idea have to offer, I’d say I prefer the Mario version over the Crossover version because Mario as an IP has so much to offer in terms of characters and locales that I wouldn’t really want to see other Nintendo IPs take away from the series. In terms of both rosters, I’d say I pretty much agree with all of the Crossover Roster and the characters chosen from other Nintendo series. In terms of the Mario roster, I also mostly agree with the roster however, I think I personally would swap out Dr. Mario and Chain Chomp with Geno and Mallow (I’d have both as Medium). While the chances of those two showing up in Mario’s spinoffs is a bit tricky, I say that if possible, those two would be a welcome addition alongside Mario and friends. I also think maybe to balance out Wario representation as a series, I’d keep Ashley but swap out Mona for Captain Syrup (She would be a heavy). One last character I’d like to get in somehow would be Fawful but out of this roster, I don’t think I’d be willing to swap someone out for the guy. Now in terms of the courses, I don’t really have much to say about what other series could lend in terms of tracks (though actually thinking about it now, a Kirby track based on Gourmet Race would got hard), I actually think there’s a good handful of Mario locales that could work really well as tracks. Courses based on areas like Lake Lapcat, The Last Resort, Forest Maze, a Warioware track, Wrecking Crew, A Mario Maker stage where the track is being built as you drive, maybe a stage based on the Bean Kingdom from Mario & Luigi, and a dedicated Paper Mario track are all good options to choose from. In terms of new items, I like the ones you positioned in this video and an idea I had was what if they put in the Drill item from Wonder and they created a new kind of shortcut that involves digging under certain obstructions. Overall though, this was a very fun vid and I can’t wait to see what you’ll do for future Roster speculation vids (Crossing my fingers for Xenoblade Warriors). Keep up the awesome work Del.

I’m not fully on board with a Nintendo kart idea. I think it’d detract from Smash and Mario Kart. However, I’m down for it if it can stand out on its own. The roster for it is really good. I want Kirby, Dedede, Samus, and Olimar as guests in Mario Kart anyway! And King K Rool is a must for me personally. A very good set of rosters and tracks!

Here's my roster for all Mario characters. I decided to incorporate 5 weight classes: Featherweight (7), Lightweight (9), Middleweight (10), Heavyweight (9), Crusherweight (7) for a grand toal of 42 characters. Featherweight Koopa, Dry Bones, Baby Mario, Baby Luigi, Cappy, Paper Mario, 9-Volt Lightweight Toad, Toadette, Popplin, Diddy Kong, Dixie Kong, Bowser Jr., Nabbit, Shy Guy, Ashley Middleweight Mario, Luigi, Peach, Daisy, Pauline, Yoshi, Birdo, E. Gadd, Fawful, Kamek Heavyweight Wario, Waluigi, Boom Boom, Pom Pom, Rosalina, Metal Mario, Wiggler, Chargin Chuck, King Boo Crusherweight Donkey Kong, Funky Kong, King K. Rool, Petey Piranha, King Bob-omb, Bowser, Dry Bowser ____________________________________________________________________________________________ Here's my roster for Mario & Nintendo characters. I kept the weight classes and the same amount of characters in each weight class, but split the roster in half, 21 Mario characters, 21 Nintendo characters. Featherweight Koopa, Paper Mario, 9-Volt, Kirby, Olimar, Isabelle, Barista (from Rhythm Heaven) Lightweight Toad, Diddy Kong, Dixie Kong, Bowser Jr., Ashley, Inkling, Octoling, Villager, Meta Knight Middleweight Mario, Luigi, Peach, Daisy, Yoshi, Kamek, Pit, Fox, Twintelle, Zelda Heavyweight Wario, Waluigi, Rosalina, Captain Falcon, Samus, Slippy, R.O.B., Link, Palutena Crusherweight Donkey Kong, Funky Kong, King K. Rool, King Dedede, Ganondorf, Bowser, Dragaux

Personally I like the direction they went with MK8D: mostly Mario with some Nintendo crossover. I like the crossover ideas you have, but I do feel a couple just don't make sense. F-Zero representation makes sense since it's Nintendo's other racing game. Star Fox to me though is only relevant because of Smash, so Fox and a corresponding track just doesn't make sense to me. Great video all around.

I’m bout to show how old most of y’all are. I grew up with this game. (MK8) This was my second Mario Kart. i just turned 16 today. I was 6 when the game came out

I actually did the same limits of only in-house 1st party (and that even excludes Kirby), but limited myself to a shrunken roster of 25 (plus Mii to make 26), plus every racer has a unique kart like MKDS. 10 are Mario/mario adjacent, and the rest are a mix of big mainline racers (like Link, Isabelle, Excitebiker, etc) and some more niche characters (F-Type from Stunt Race FX, Electroplankton, stuff like that). I’m still working on refining a track list, but I’m working with around 9 cups. We actually shared a couple of ideas for items and tracks and such. I’d love if there was a way to compare notes at some point

I would LOVE if they made tracks based on themes from other games like the Wonderfield you have or an area from odyssey but i dont expect it will happen

I have given up on Ashley ever getting into smash but now you sparked hope that she can at least get into Mario Kart... I honestly doubt it but I suppose it is possible

I'm also one who doesn't want mario kart to have too many crossover characters, but I would love a nintendo-party game (like a better nintendo land lol) where maybe racing is one of the main modes!

I'd say a full Nintendo Kart would work, but ideally only as a one-off.

I love the ideas presented here but I have 2 gripes with this. The first is not having retro cups. This is one of the biggest reasons anyone buys a mariokart game especially for long time players and not having these would create a very big disconnect with veteran players. The second is the shear amount of crossovers. Having the game be 50% crossover or more is completely overkill and might as well be called smash bros 6 the kart racing edition. 8/8dx did a good job in keeping the crossovers smaller making the crossovers that much more exciting.

You’ve got my full attention with Ashley and Mona as Warioware representatives, as much as I know Nintendo will never allow them in the games because normies who don’t play Warioware wouldn’t recognize them.

Sonic and Pacman better be in the next Mario Kart. Crash would be cool but highly unlikely

A crossover game seems cool but I think I would prefer the next one be a Mario Kart. There's so much untapped potential for the roster and race tracks, we need one really great Mario Kart that makes up for what 8 Deluxe didn't do before we get a crossover game

I’d kinda love if Chain Chomps suddenly started appearing on the roster of all of the Mario spin-offs thanks to their appearance in Tennis Aces.

Something I can imagine for that city you described in your design for a new Rainbow Road would be for it to bear a more than passing resemblance to Dinohattan from the live action movie

I do hope that we stick to Mario Kart, but I wouldn’t mind having a crossover spin-off game like what you had, or something that went in further into the crossover. If it wasn’t the replacement for normal Mario Kart. Which is why I was so hesitant about the idea in an earlier comment saying “NEVER”.

I think there should be 12 cups, 4 nitros, 4 retros, and 4 hybrids

I will say, instead of two WarioWare characters, I would throw a bone to Wario Land and include Captain Syrup over either Ashley or Mona, depends who’s more popular. And for Splatoon reps, I say Inkling/Octoling are a skin swap akin to the different Villager designs, with the secondary rep being Callie and Marie, also in a toggle. As for the potential of third party racers, I only have three suggestions- Sonic for the very obvious reason of Mario and Sonic’s rivalry, Banjo with Kazooie now in tow for a mini-Diddy Kong Racing reunion (but given it’s Microsoft… dunno how willing they’d be), and lastly, Rabbid Peach. She’s specifically originated in a Mario crossover, so it makes too much sense for them not to include her.

I'd prefer having Mario Kart stay as Mario Kart with a few crossover characters rather than it being a complete crossover. It allows us to get more of the niche mario themes and characters that we don't normally see and I'd like it to stay that way. If we we're to get another Nintendo Crossover game, I'd like it to be on the lines of a Capcom V.S. game (preferably Nintendo V.S. Sega)

Seeing everyone's preferences for keeping Mario Kart for Mario, I wonder if people would prefer if Mario Kart is the base game, and all the DLCs are crossovers?

I think that Mario Kart should stay Mario Kart, but I wouldn’t complain with a few crossover characters like Kirby

I don't mind Mario Kart or "Nintendo Kart" it just depends how they execute it. I feel like if Nintendo Kart is just Mario Kart then there'd be no reason to continue with the series because people would just want anther Nintendo Kart instead of a new Mario Kart Game. They'd need to find someway to differentiate it which would be difficult since they'd also have to differentiate it from F-Zero and Diddy Kong Racing too. If they're able to make a fun racer game that's still different enough to the other titles that they would be able to continue uninterrupted between the big crossover games then I'd be happy with that, and if they're making a Nintendo Kart they should 100% call it "Super Dash Brothers"
