The CUT Characters of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe

  • Mario Kart 8 Deluxe has been getting a lot of DLC in the form of the booster course pass. While they had originally only announced new tracks would come with it, Nintendo recently added a new option alongside it to allow for custom items. That got me thinking, could Nintendo possibly secret drop characters in an update in the future? That then got me thinking about the characters in previous mario kart games that have been forgotten and cut from mario kart 8 deluxe. So today I look at super mario kart, mario kart double dash, mario kart ds, mario kart wii, mario kart 7, mario kart arcade, and mario kart tour to see what characters are in their rosters and who could maybe return in an update for mario kart 8 or just in a future mario kart in general. So join me as I cover the cut characters of mario kart 8 deluxe!

      I'm actually theorizing that they're going to be adding several characters and items in, while also creating an "Echo" system of character selection with the additional characters. I think they want this to be as big as Tour, making it as wild and engaging as ever. Some of the items from Tour are perfect for 8 Deluxe, such as the cannons and ice flower. If you really want that many Peach's, then you can feel free to navigate through a sub menu between Peach, Rose Gold Peach, Cat Peach, SNES Peach, Paper Peach, Dr. Peach, Baby Peach, Dress Peach, and Racer Jumpsuit Peach. Did I miss any? I'm sure I did.

    Fun Fact: Ms Pac-Man is the only character who WON’T return to MarioKart. Due to Namco losing the license for her, they have been replacing Ms Pac-Man with the new character Pac-Mom in all rereleases of Pac-Man games. While Pac-Mom has a small chance to be added, Ms Pac-Man will never be added. This also means no MarioKart can ever have every previous character return.

      @@neneenenejrkerre1828 it's a bit of a messy situation. Ms Pac-Man was created by GCC and sold to Midway, who had license deals with Namco in North America. GCC had first created an "enhanced" unlicensed version of the original Pac-Man and sold the game to Midway. After a lenghty legal battle, it was determined Midway could keep using Ms Pac-Man but pay royalties to GCC. Eventually, GCC ceased to exist and a fourth company, AtGames, acquired the rights to Ms Pac-Man. So the ownership by Namco of Ms Pac-Man was always blurry from the start.
      With Nintendo having previously partnered with different companies to add characters to their games like in Smash, they could technically reach a deal with AtGames to use Ms Pac-Man, but it would seem unlikely. There just isn't the same interest to add her in MK as there was to add, say, Sonic, Snake or Minecraft characters in Smash

    I actually kinda like Wiggler because it felt like it was the first time they tried to make a Mario Kart character standout a bit with the gimmick of it getting angry for a short while after getting hit. Unfortunately it's really hard to see a Wiggler on a bike so I feel like the only Wiggler's will see in 8 are the ones on Maple Treeway and the ones all the Waluigis ride online.

    2:00 Donkey Kong Jr. is, canonically, the Donkey Kong of today (the one with the tie). DK Jr's father is now known as Cranky Kong. That's why DK Jr is no longer seen. He grew up.

    Also a note about Petey Piranha, he was planned to be in Wii along with Hammer Bro and someone else that I forgor but Nintendo apparently cut him as he was quote "too big to fit on a bike". TOO BIG TO FIT ON A BIKE YET KING BOO WHO LACKS LEGS IS PLAYABLE HERE, LIKE WTF?!

    • @courage1363
      @courage1363 Рік тому +1

      I so dam agree since they did brought back Petey AND they did either made him smaller OR they leveled up the Baby Park track because of his size in the original title.

    Kamek, Funky Kong, Diddy Kong, Birdo (now here).
    If we're going out of Mario, then Pokemon characters would be nice too.
    And for alternates, Koopa and Toad are just givens. For Koopa, you can put in the Hammer Bros etc.

  • @awkwardsilence4427
    @awkwardsilence4427 Рік тому +1

    18:29 Oh the irony when the joke character you mentioned technically has made it in as the first new character (since Birdo has color variations like Yoshi and Shy Guy does).
    But to be honest, my most wanted characters are in fact Wiggler and Paratroopa. Wiggler for his unique body shape with the extra arms and all (and turning mad red when hit by an item or ending in a low position), and Paratroopa for nostalgia due to that pair being my go-to in Double Dash after Yoshi alienated me. In fact, I kind of wish Paratroopa made it in over Koopa Troopa.
    Oh, and as for what makes a character a skin vs unique character in 8 Deluxe is due to if the character has unique animations or not (Tanooki and Metal both have different animations from regular Mario so they’re unique characters for instance), so Paratroopa would have to be an unique character in order to incorporate his wings into his animations.
    Edit: Well, I’d like Kamek over either probably but still. Also would like a regular Piranha Plant over Petey because I like the idea of various vines working the controls of the cart (with maybe a third popping up to carry and item, allowing for two vines to stay on the wheel), and because I always hated Petey’s underwear/diaper thing he has.
    I’d also _really_ like to have karts from older MK games added to 8 Deluxe too.

  • @papyrussemi2848
    @papyrussemi2848 Рік тому +9

    My own thoughts on all the characters:
    The DK Crew:
    All very likely, specifically in the order of Diddy, then Funky and Dixie at the same time, then DK Jr (who I could've sworn was in a trailer for The Super Mario Bros. Movie).
    Birdo:
    Third-most-likely, behind only Diddy and Pauline.
    Paratroopa:
    A bit of a filler character, but the original game's DLC drivers were already half filler.
    Petey Piranha:
    You say that he's too big, yet look at King Boo in every non-Mario Kart game. And then look at Petey in Tour.
    R.O.B.:
    Fairly unlikely, unless we start doing base MK8-style DLC packs again.
    Honey Queen:
    No. Unless we need to fill a slot in specifically a Sonic the Hedgehog DLC pack, or if we're making Mario Kart Ultimate.
    Wiggler:
    They're funny put them back in
    Pac-Man:
    Bandai Namco is already in charge of making the games. Just do it already Nintendo you cowards.
    Ms. Pac-Man:
    Too much legal shenanigans in the way, unless you really wanna put in "Pac-Mom".
    Blinky:
    Certainly a cool pick, but there's other characters I'd rather have.
    Mametchi:
    Not even a course to their name. Don't even bother.
    Don-Chan:
    You severely underestimate the popularity of Taiko no Tatsujin, my good sir. Still probably won't happen unless we do a full Arcade GP DLC pack, but if it does, Don-Chan is totally getting in.
    Robo Mario:
    You forgot him, heathen. A very good filler character in the same vein as Tanooki Mario, Cat Peach, and Dry Bowser.
    Hammer Bro:
    Call me crazy, but we're probably gonna get Hammer Bro as part of a costume DLC to show off what it does by having four Bros in one slot.
    Kamek:
    He was planned for 64 and cut, then planned for 8DX and cut. Do this man a solid, Ninty.
    Monty Mole:
    More likely than Wiggler by merit of already being in Mario Kart Tour.
    Pauline:
    She's basically the new Rosalina in terms of marketing. Nintendo just needs to announce the very premise of new characters and her inclusion will be implied.
    Peachette:
    Another filler character to pad out DLC. Moving on...
    Captain Toad:
    Ibid.
    Nabbit:
    Do it.
    The rest of the Tour cast because I am tired:
    Yeah sure why not

    • @theshadowworld2239

      The rest of the tour cast? I mean, Poochy, KBB, Chargin, Nabbit, hell yeah. But the clones? Nawwwwww.
      Also Honey Queen is good. I hate saying it all the time, but I like her, and I see she’s so underappreciated.
      And it’s all. Because. Some. Purple. Dude. Wasn’t. In. The. Roster.
      I’d love to put her in.
      (Also Petey Kamek and the funny wiggle man are back, and BOWSER IS JUST AS BIG AS PETEY.)

      I personally would like to see Zelda and Ganondorf, but with Tears of the Kingdom having now been released, I think their window has passed. Then again Link is in the game, we have a Hyrule track and it wouldn't be too hard to add another one...

  • @MarcusGronkowski
    @MarcusGronkowski Рік тому +3

    This video is cool and all, but why are we just assuming Nintendo is adding ANY new characters? All they’re adding is new tracks from now on, so I don’t think they’re ever adding new characters again. This video would make sense if maybe for example, Nintendo puts out a post saying “New Mario Kart 8 characters will be releasing in 10 days.” Or something of the sort.

In the newest rabbids plus mario game they even have their own unique voices and it would just be so cool to play as them
