Mario Kart 8 It's a sad day for some fans

Posted

So I just found out that there are no more hidden characters in Mario Kart 8 Xplain on Youtube confirmed that there are no more hidden characters, and Nintendo once again revealed all characters early on. Does this effect you buy the game? or are you still planning on getting the game?

 

As for me I'm a bit upset but I just want to try out that new Gravity so bad, so no!

 

What does this mean for some fans?

 

It means

 

King Boo

Diddy Kong

Dry Bones

and many other characters will not be in the game.

I honestly don't really care. I knew everyone in Smash Bros Brawl before release, and I was still incredibly excited for it. I'll definitely be buying this, not like I play Mario Kart JUST for the characters.

Why does Nintendo do this to there fans though? why reveal everything to me I want everything to be a surprise but this, is just wrong. I'm still getting the game but I'm upset with why they reveal so much before the game is even out.

Because they can? None of us can say WHY they do it.

I really care more about the tracks and the vechiles really,basing my purchase on the fact that King Boo isn't there would be absolutely stupid

 

I'm still excited for the game and I'll buy it day one so I don't get how's this a sad day

 

It's not like the characters will stray away from the classes they're in cuz unlike a fighting game like Smash Bros,characters in racing games doesn't really matter cuz all of them are classified under:Light,Medium,Heavy...etc and play the same as other characters in the same class.

 

Please tell me people won't make a big deal out of this and cancel pre-orders just because freakin Pitty Phirana (a generic boss from Mario Sunshine) isn't there

Fool. It will be revealed after day 1 anyway.

You're saying this as if they did a crime dude.You can easily skip all the spoilers that GameXplain post just like what me and other people did

 

Heck Playstation All Star on the Ps3 revealed all characters before release and I haven't seen people bitching about that

I'm just saying I wish they would of atleast let the fans experience the game before revealing everything to me that's more fun.

probably because no one said anything because some people didn't buy it because of the character list.

 

Look I'm still getting the game for the tracks and the fact that it looks amazing but I just wish Nintendo would stop revealing everything so fast.

I don't get how MARIO CHARACTERS are crucial in the decision of buying Mario Kart,did people mourn their Pirhana plant when it was revealed it's not in Mario Kart?

 

If this was Super Smash Bros I would've agreed with you,but this is Mario Kart the characters means nothing other than an aesthetic change,what matters are the stats of their vechiles and which class they're in alongside the tracks.

 

Also,this is called Marketing,would you rather them not release a single trailer and see the sales decrease?

 

Also,characters would've been revealed anyway by any player on youtube ONCE THE GAME COMES OUT

You know what I'm tired of you, always criticizing my thoughts on the game okay? there called opinions for a reason okay? do you understand? or are you just to ignorant to understand? hmm?

 

They can release trailers I don't mind that, but not reveal the entire list of characters from it. Your telling me a Baby character or a Metal character is more important than different characters? wow you must have a pathetic mind. To me characters are more important than the tracks I would rather have awesome characters and terrible track ideas. Honestly from the list of all the characters they listed in this game not one of them I like. In MK Wii I always picked King Boo and Dry Bowser.

Dude I didn;t criticize your thoughts and never meant to,I meant other people on places like Miiverse.

 

Again,I'm not criticizing you by any means,what I'm saying is if this was a fighting game where movesets and characters really mattered I would've fully agreed,but in racing games like Crash Team Racing and Mario Kart characters are just models representing each class of the racers.

 

I don't know how I have a pathetic mind for having a different opinion.

 

Besides at least the characters are different now instead of reusing the old ones over and over again cuz the ones in MK Wii were in MK Double Dash already

 

Also,tracks are the heart of any racing game in the world,whether it's realistic like Gran Turismo or fantastical like Crash Team Racing and Mario Kart

I am sorry I'm just upset out of all the characters they given us, I don't like any of them and to me Characters are what makes the game fun for me.

if the tracks in MK8 were horrible I would've never bought the game even if they put Sora himself in it

Well for one, they're a business company. So of course they're going to show off all of the characters before the game comes out in order to get more people interested in the game. All gaming companies tend to do this with their games so this really not should come offf as a surprise nor a complaint. As for the actual topic, I'm still excited for the game and will still be purchasing it nontheless. I mean come on, the game looks to be one of the best looking games for the Wii U and will possibly help boost sales for the console alsong with Smash bros 4.

People are worried about "hidden" characters?

People are worried about "hidden" characters?

lol what hidden characters? Nintendo confirmed all the hidden characters in there last trailer.

I'm actually all in because of Baby Peach. I'll be honest there, but even if she wasn't in, I'd just play as Luigi or Rosalina.

I'm just saying I wish they would of atleast let the fans experience the game before revealing everything to me that's more fun.

 

Fool. The fans don't have to look up all the revealed characters if they want it to be a surprise.

I wish Bowser jr and Diddy were in the game,but I'm still buying the game anyway

What's the problem then?
