Topic: Mario Kart U Disscusion Thread

Blue shells should be gone. Otherwise, I'm happy.

For me to be happy...

_{his 'son' was in SSBB, and he's coming to the 3DS so I don't see why not D:}

In case you guys didn't notice, most of my suggestions were meant to turn the current MK into MK64. Has it really been that long for you guys?

Why? Yes, I agree that the blue shells in MKDS and especially MKW were annyoing, but the blue shell in MK7 has no wings so it can hit everyone like in 64 and if Nintendo are at all sensible they will keep that for MKU. If they do, I'd actually want them to put it in (but it should only appear rarely).

the wii U tablet screen can be used as the rearview mirror for mario kart wiiU

I actually prefer it with wings but I still hate them altogether.

When Do you guys want a Mario Kart Wii. Im hoping toward the end of the life cycle (5 or 6 years after launch)

That game was released more than 3 years ago...

Assuming you mean Wii U, I don't understand the question. Why would anyone want to wait several years? If you ask me, I want Mario Kart, F-Zero, Pikmin, Mario, Zelda, Fire Emblem, Smash Bros, Smash Bros, and more Smash Bros on Wii U tomorrow.

Nintendo has been steadily releasing games monthly. Since the 3DS has come out, they've been using that strategy. The problem is that games that are ready (such as Luigi's Mansion 2, apparently) are being held back to prevent sales from affecting one another or greatly impacting each other.

I rather have the games be spaced out instead of crammed in. Benefits is that over time, the price may drop than if it came out later.

If Nintendo releases F-Zero, new Zelda, Smash Bros., Mario Kart, new Mario and a new Kirby for Wii U in one year, then damn.. There goes my moneys and time

As for sequels to these games in one generation.. It'd be lovely, but a new Smash Bros or Mario Kart every 2 or 3 years wouldn't be good.. I don't think. Maybe Mario Kart, but Smash Bros.?

So instead of a new game, you want an old game? :/

That would be incredibly useful, but I don't think we'll see the tablet being used as a steering wheel. It's shaped like a square. We'll probably still continue using the Wii Wheel and Wiimote. With that, they might not even implement the other controller. If they did, I'd love it to be a rearview.

Fix the Blue Shell. The one from MKWii was horrible...

Oh and I'm hoping for a 30 character cast.

I hope it has 5 cups for Retro and New each instead of four. (Make the 5th cups super secret and not even see-able unless you beat the other four)

Also, give it a track editor where you make 4 tracks and put them into "Custom Cups" and put them online and trade them with your friends.

Bring back multilayer Grand Prix

Also bring back All Cup, but make it optional (it doesn't unlock any new characters, karts, etc. It's just for fun), because some people won't have time for it. But have 2 "All Cups". The first one will just be for all of the new courses, but if you beat both that and the 5th Retro cup, then you unlock a "True All Cup" which mixes all of the new courses, retro courses, and custom courses.

Item ideas:

• Spiny Eggs - You throw them and they hatch into Spinys that walk around and try to attack other karts
• Metal Box - Turns your character metal for a certain amount of time

Course ideas:

• Buzzy Beetle Caverns - Has a bunch of Buzzy Beetles that act exactly the same as Spinies but aren't affected by fireballs, there are also piranha plants and some Mushroom Gorge mushrooms.
• Waluigi Arcade - You start out in a pinball machine called "Waluigi Pinball 2" but before going around the first time, the machine detects "foregin objects" and then you launch out of the machine and glide onto a Foosball table, then you drive to the other side then glide over to a Whack-A-Mole machine, then you finally glide into a "Sheriff" machine (Old Nintendo arcade game) where you avoid "cowboys" before finishing the course. This course has one lap.
• Diamond City - A course with a bunch of Warioware cameos, including one when you drive by Club Sugar, there's a bunch of Miis taking pictures of Jimmy T.

Battle Course ideas:

• Microgame Tower - The Mario Kart equivalent to the "WarioWare Inc." stage in Super Smash Bros. Brawl
• Mushroom Canyon - A two sided battle course separated by Mushroom Gorge mushrooms. There's also a few goombas on each side.
• The Airship - A battle course that takes place on a SMB3 Airship.

EDIT: I also have retro track predictions in my post on the topic's 4th page

Whats today if yesterday is tomorrow?

the game can be played with the analog sticks.. wii wheel users will not be able to use this feature..
if it happens..

I wanna see a racing chair for the wii u that utilizes the touch screen controller as the steering wheel by fitting it into a slot on the column that would be great for mk u and any other racing games that launch for the wii u

I would like to see a rollercoaster track (like speed racer) with loops and tunnels and HUGE drops, spirals, helixes the works

now that sounds nice I'd love to have that many characters on the roster a custom track maker with the ability to share them and download would be a great idea too
