Kirby would be an awesome character for to add,it would be so cool if he had extra colours as well.
Yes I hope we do get Kirby in the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe roster with his colors from Smash now that would be cool to see
A Kirby themed track would be so cool imagine they made it a section track and have you race through 3 of the different worlds in the new Kirby game
If you think about it, if Kirby would be added to the game, it would make sense if one of the tracks is gourmet race and also in fact, Mario, Luigi, Peach, Toad and Birdo already appeared in a Kirby Game, Kirby superstar
Kirby would be a such an amazing character to be added to the MK8 Deluxe character roster!
I would love R.O.B. but the main problem is fitting him on bikes
I'd cry tears of joy if Kirby was added. I think there's a good chance since he's been so much more popular these days.
If I remember right, the Mii Costumes were based on the first few waves of Smash Bros. amiibo back on the Wii U.
Of note that even though we're technically getting "new" tracks, they're all made with tour in mind first, meaning that calling them old tracks isn't technically incorrect, just timing is funky. And as far as characters go, it's just a simple upping of the scope of the project. I highly doubt with only half a wave left they're likely to suddenly change their mind and with how rarely tour is adding new characters these days I don't see many, if any, curveballs being thrown at this point in time in terms of cross promotion
I guess technically all the Tour tracks can also be considered “new” tracks, because they were all originally debuted after 8 Deluxe released, meaning they’re newer than the actual MK8D “new” courses
I agree however, it shouldn’t be too hard for the dev team for mariokart tour to push the tours containing the new tracks to come out before or at least with the tracks in Mario kart 8
@@bradmcgowan5453 They usually do is the thing, even Yoshi's Island is gonna be within 2 weeks from now at the latest most likely
They have a pretty fixed schedule for when and how they time events they have to adhere to, vs MK8DX being able to release plausibly whenever the courses are ready, so sometimes there's a slight delay in a track releasing for tour vs its console counterpart, but only very slight. PPC releasing way ahead of schedule in tour also shows we'll likely have one or two of the final nitro tracks before they ever hit 8DX
@@jomaq9233 Technically! They're listed as retros tho, timing is funny like that (with exception to the non-city tracks, but I believe that's because they're considered as being made for both games simultaneously rather than because they're considered new in 8DX)
So… we all know the answer is ROB if a guest character was to be added. Assuming that they stick to it being returning characters, our only options are Rob and Pac man (and the Arcade games clearly aren’t Mainline according to Nintendo so ROB is our only choice). Any other guest character for 8 deluxe is wishful thinking. However I can see some characters like Zelda and Kirby sneaking into MK9 to fill out the guest characters
I think you mean 10 since Tour is 9 anyways since Tour is confirmed as a MAIN LINE Mario Kart title anyways
I think ROB would be really cool and has a pretty good chance to make it in since it's debut in MKDS
I’m betting the “guest” will just be ROB making it’s return.
I'd love to see Kirby, but I'm just expecting returning vets
in regards to Samus being a possible character from Nintendo's own library of franchises it would be more practical in my opinion for Zero Suit Samus being the version of her added to the roster since she does have access to both hands to grab the wheel in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe.
I really hope they had Captain Falcon. I feel bad for him not having a racing games in years, I think he deserves to come back and finally race once again.
Unfortunately, if that were the case, then the only one I can think of is R.O.B., since aside from the ones already in MK8 Deluxe, he's the only guest character that has appeared in the main series.
I wish we got the tour skins on Mario kart 8 deluxe too. Besides that, I have an unpopulair opionion to want R.O.B back
An idea i had was a Tears of The Kingdom link alt this to me is a 10/10 option, they gave him a BOTW alt for promotion so a TOTK alt doesnt sound to farfetched.
I think a alt skin for Link to promote ToTK is MOST likely, BUT it WONT be in the pass thou.
Kirby has been my most wanted ever since they added other Nintendo characters
I don't want more non-Mario characters, but if Kirby is added, we need a warp star 'kart '
IT'S GOTTA BE CAPTAIN FALCON
They aren’t gonna add non Mario drivers though lmao. Nintendo literally said so and they made that *very* clear
If Kirby was added, this game would be a dream to have. I can imagine Kirby wanting to eat the candy in Sweet Sweet Canyon, just like in “Kirby’s Dream Buffet”.
🎉 Kirby would be the worst hardest to beat if he could fly
I feel like some characters here are so unlikely to be in MK and then there’s like an 8/10 chance? I wish there was some sort of logic to back some of these up
I can see them just doing trailers for the characters away from the course trailers
I'd think everyone would loose it if they added Funky Kong. It's like Mario Kart Wii all over again.
great video love what other people are speculating on the upcoming characters
The footage of R.O.B. shown is actually from a 3ds mod called ctgp-7. it has a load of custom characters and tracks, and rob is one of them.
Finally, someone think Kirby is likely!
I don't even know if you're paying attention to the Booster Course Pack Trailers but between that and the official sites of different regions for Nintendo/Mario Kart they don't really agaknowlaged them as main Mario Kart games. I'm sure Pac-Man isn't impossible with Namco on board and the Mii having a costume based on the franchise but will see if they surprise us with that.
Part of me died when he said Samus would be medium heavy.
i would not bet on 2rd party and human characters. I feel like rob would be a good character to end the dlc pack
I agree since the whole point of adding RETURNING characters is to add ONLY characters who appeared playable BEFORE MK8 happened and i still dont count Tour as a past game since despite it debut in 2019 since its the NEWEST game released anyways.
If they would add Kirby + Warpstar Cup, then I'd buy it
Captain falcon, Kirby or Zelda are the ones I could see happening. Possibly rob if they stick to the returning characters thing
The characters i really wanna see the most are Funky Kong, Pauline, Nabbit, and Kirby.
I feel like Funky Kong is almost guaranteed because he would be a returning character and Nabbit is from tour so him too.
Pauline and Kirby just fit this game, but mostly Kirby and I think he's gonna be the new character if theres any at all.
Pikachu just shouldn't get in because why Pokemon of all game franchises do they have to take from.
There's no way Sonic is getting in the game, the dude already has his own racing game, it just wouldnt work.
Pac-Man is a character I think should just stay in the arcade game, the arcade game is still going strong were I'm at and i think he should just be one of those special characters you have to play that certain game to see him.
Now that I’ve been thinking about it… If Fox gets added, what if he gets his racer outfit from Star Fox Command? Falco could get his racer outfit too! We could also make one for Slippy and Peppy! I know Stat Fox Command wasn’t a good game, but it would still be a nice reference, right?
I think the crossover character is either captain falcon, Kirby, Ashley from Wario ware or ROB
I don’t think we get a crossover character, all of the DLC content so far is ported from tour
Who I think would fit the most:
Second Character: Petey Piranha
Third Character: Pauline
Fourth Character: Kamek or Hammer Bro (all variations as options)
Fifth Character: Nabbit
Sixth Character: R.O.B. (Since he was the first non-Mario related character to come to Mario Kart)
Captain Falcon is likely because Nintendo would do it to get people to shut up about F-Zero (not saying I don’t want a new f-zero, just something that Nintendo would do), Kirby is likely for the 30th anniversary, and Olimar is likely to promote Pikmin 4. In conclusion, add all of them please.
I love Kirby 😭
on the new consle there will likely be a Nintendo kart ad some gta stuff to it i hope it gets a story mode were luigi kirby and pac man work together to save every one also levels will race to win and get pass so ya do u like it or too much
I can see pikachu coming in honestly and it would be so dope
If i had to guess i'd say the special character is Krystal from StarFox,it makes sense because shes a popular nintendo character and maybe a light weight.
I think that will be cool if there will be a warp star as a kart, kinda like Kirby air ride
They HAVE to include that if they added kirby
I personally would love to have Kirby, Fox, Captain Falcon and Samus.
Or even better I would transform Mario Kart to Nintendo Kart and basically just do Smash Bros racing game
Maybe Funky will count as the guest character since he barely appears in Mario games
Captain Falcon races for Jesus Christ glory, so I'd like to see him in the game.
Extra point for PAC-MAN
PAC-MAN was cut from 8 Deluxe
Given that they said "returning characters", that means that PAC-MAN(Mario Kart Arcade GP, cut from 8 Deluxe) has the highest chance out of the characters suggested
yknow... i didnt think that a delibird driving a kart and throwing a "shellder" towards pit was something i would see today
Imagine a dreamland dlc map too
Guys… we could be getting movie Mario!
No, instead we should be able to play as Chris Pratt and movie Mario will just be an alternate costume
Ive had this idea for so long im glad some people finally thought of it too.
I love your Kirby idea
Kirby would make sense because he actually had a racing game
I think a cool out-of-left-field addition would be Olimar. Especially since pikmin 4 is getting closer
The first time I see you and your intro reminds me of nintendo land
I doubt they would add any of those characters didnt Nintendo say that it was mario base games i mean maybe falcon and kirby but that would be fun
I think kirby would be heavy because he literally has the entire universe in the back of his throat
this video should be called the likeleyhood that each smash character has of being in mario kart
Olimar would be my new main if he was added to the roster, but Captain Falcon DESERVES it. So I’m hoping for him!
2:52 Kirby also has a racing game lol
Diddy Kong, Funky Kong,
Pacman, Kirby
Zelda
Plot Twist: No Samus but the Metroid becomes an item that sucks up the coins from nearby racers. Get it around 3-6 place
New to the channel, wonder if you’ve every discussed the idea of a Mario Games Ultimate, where all characters could Fight or Race or Tennis etc, I’m thinking it could be the flagship game of the next gen console for Nintendo
13:03 about Sonic, he already has two racing games so idk
YO ARE THOSE FLATBALLS ON PIT’S WHIP⁉️⁉️⁉️😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
kirby with his airride star 😍
Imagine Ninjala Van as a guest character. It will be amazing if Lucy or Jane be in separate
Kirby would be a perfect fit. He fits in with the cartoony Charakters and i mean, he already has...a racing game... You know?
I know this won't happen but I want a Warp star kart to go along with kirby
forgot about that, becouse nintendo said RETURNING chars from older mario karts. So don´t belive any of his listed chars being in there. (yeah r.o.b could be)
Captain Falcon would be the most likely and he is also my number one pick
They’re only adding past characters from across the MK series. Nintendo made that very clear
@@WritingCountingOriginal they also made that very clear about the courses. look where we are now
@@tdog2658 the Yoshi’s Island course is literally a Tour course released in 8 deluxe first. Dataminers found Yoshi’s Island in Tour’s files many months ago
Every last thing in the DLC will have been in Tour. Let’s be honest.
I knew someone would use the “original” tracks in 8 deluxe as a defense lol
And, Tour will never receive non-Mario drivers so therefore none are coming to the dlc
@@WritingCountingOriginal How do you know that there will never be a non mario driver?
@@tdog2658 I… literally explained in my previous reply. Fine I’ll repeat myself: all things in this dlc are coming from past MK games and mostly Tour. Tour will never have non-mario drivers. There, understand now?
And there’s no reason to assume Tour will ever get non-Mario drivers.
Sonic and Kirby seem awesome but banjo and other characters from diddy kong racing would be so awesome but unlikely cause Microsoft may not allow it but they did let banjo in smash so idk
I haven’t watched the vid yet but I’m pretty sure the bottom slot is for golden Mario lol (from the thumbnail) since you have to unlock him and the slot was there before dlc
I have a feeling that they are going to be the mario movie characters
Character-wise, I think Sonic would be amazing since we had Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games for many years and then we had Yoshi’s Island as a level in Sonic Lost World. Also there happens to be several gaming mods where Sonic takes a journey through the Mushroom Kingdom and Mario gets transported to Green Hill Zone and stuff like that, so there could be a decent chance that Sonic could make an appearance.
kirby should be in either dlc or Mario or Nintendo kart imagine and i also saw the Mario kart with pacman at dav N busters ( twice) so ye
Tbh going by that theory, if its still returning characters that character would most definitely be ROB, cuz hes a non mario character, and a returning one
I really hope either kirby pikachu pacman or sonic appears
Mario Vs Sonic. your move, Nintendo.
The one I would want to see the most has to be Sonic or Capt. Falcon, but Falcon or ROB HAS to come to the game!
@Nin10doLand I do agree with your list but yeah I agree that Kirby does make it in the roster because he has so many games and Nintendo and HAL are still loving the cute little pink puffball so I just hope we do get Kirby in the roster and maybe they’ll give him like a Warp Star Kart which would be really cool to see and a track for Kirby as well and he would be so cute to see him as a playable racer but I bet everyone especially me would love to have Kirby in the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe roster
@@Thememebro123 Well Kirby would have a warp star kart with him if he was added to the roster
I’d have in my opinion olimar added since we could have 2 new karts and a bike. Olimar would be a very light class and the karts would be the s.s dolphin from the original game and the ship from pikmin 2. The bike would be named the bulbike. The gliders would be the onion and a wollywog since wollywogs would jump very high to kill pikmin. OR it would be a jelly float from pikmin 2.
No. They already specified returning characters. At most, we getting some from Tour as well.
Also there’s a character I don’t know the name but it’s a drum that in Mario kart DX and that is the arcade version
There is a game on the switch with a whole starfox story it's called starlink, but maybe this isn't a valid reason because it still isn't it's own game
I guess they're just starting to listen to the community
@Nin10doland Hey, I recently thought about what could be another clue to how characters can be predicted, and that you could touch upon it in another video one day.
You see, when Birdo was added into Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, her Pipe Frame had a color scheme that was NEVER used by any other racer.
Birdo drove a Hot Pink Pipe Frame just like Wendy O. Koopa; but it lacked the additional special colors for the joints & exhaust pipe that Wendy & the Koopalings' Pipe Frames had, resulting in Birdo's Pupe Frame to have normal joint & exhaust pipe colors.
Birdo's Hot Pink Pipe Frame is also a stark contrast to the Magenta Pipe Frame that Birdo drove in Mario Kart Tour.
And that got me thinking... Maybe the Koopalings' Pipe Frames, with the exception of Larry's which is yellow - an already used color, could give us clues to what characters we may have added into Mario Kart 8 Deluxe.
For example, with Roy Koopa's Pipe Frame being Magenta, then the likeliest character to have a Magenta Pipe frame as well would be Pauline, at least in my opinion.
Of course, the Pipe Frame Colors may not always be a guaranteed clue, as I don't think Diddy Kong or Petey Pirahna would drive Pipe Frames in colors the same colors as the Koopaling's Pipe Frames (Iggy's Pipe Frame is too bright of a shade of green for Petey; and none of the other Koopaling Pipe Frame colors would suit Diddy as much as the Orange Pipe Frame he drove in Tour).
But still, I thought it'd be something you might find interesting & touch upon it in a new video if you want.
I would love to see Kirby in the game but, rather unlikely Nintendo will most likely expand within the Mario universe but it Nintendo they’ll probably somehow add sonic or some sh-
If they add kirby, i would LOVE if green greens was a track
Bro didn’t forgot about arcade gp! Noice
I think kirby and sonic would be the best fit for mario kart
I thought maybe sonic would be involved in the mario kart series since he came in the Nintendo series
This is what we need
You know. Air ride was a sweet game. Air ride mode 🎉
My guess for the crossover character would be ROB because he’s been in a Mariokart game before specifically DS
kirby is one f the only other nin10 characters to have a racing game + there was the smash 4 trailer letdown so i could see kirby happening
If they had Kirby in Mario Kart, i'm dropping EVERYTHING!
