My hope is that it is a special type of item box that gives a unique item to each character, like how different characters in Double Dash had unique items. It would definitely bring some much needed variety to the different characters and spice up strategies
you just described one of the modes in Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed. Though I don't know if Nintendo is petty enough to not do it because Sega did it first.
I think the fuel tank idea is an interesting line of thought. It could work as a comeback mechanic, similarly to fuel boosts in Fast RMX and Mysims Racing. The twist being, the further behind you are in a race, the more fuel you get to spend. That way, going off the path in 1st might not be worth it if doesn't give much boost. The fuel tank on Mario's car could be an accessory that appears whenever you have fuel, signifying that to the other racers in some way. However, its not a crazy interesting twist and could be mild compared to what people are expecting. I'd rather give more credence to the wonder flower idea of the item changing the track. It could be like Dreamworks Kart Racing (I know way too many obscure kart racers), where only the people that hit the flower can see the changes and take the supposed shortcut it creates. If there's anything I want to see in Mario Kart 9, 24-player support could also create a side game mode that brings back double dash cars, 24 players in 12 karts. Also, I know it'd be hell to balance but I'd love to see character specific items return
I initially thought that the new mechanic would be introducing Mario Wonder’s wonder effects onto race courses, but it seems that idea was already canned as soon as you mentioned the golden sparkly thing not being a Wonder Seed. Oh, and MK7 already introduced the mechanic of driving underwater, alongside with gliding through the air, before MK8 did.
I heard from somewhere that a wonder flower type mechanic could be introduced. Where it just complete changes the layout of the track or something like that(not confirmed, just very speculative)
Open world in the likes of Need for Speed Underground. Tracks will be sections from the world map, and will have many variations (mirror, reverse, trick, weather changes etc).
Would like something like the boost system in F-Zero99 but with fuel instead of HP/car damage, where you need to use the boost wisely to gain big advantages, while getting punished with something like a speed penalty if you abuse and deplete it until you get more fuel (instead of just plain getting disqualified lol).
My favorite theory was it can be somewhat like Mario wonder with wonder seeds. Where obtaining the item can transform the map or the players in obscure and unique ways depending on the map.
Interesting…. Btw what do you think about the tracks? I dont like that the widths will be like moonview highway and looks of ribbon road with length of wii RR… i want adrenaline and tight corners and intense 200cc!
Wide tracks will probably just be for the easier courses, I can see the tougher courses traditionally found on the right side of the cup selection screen being bumpfests at the start for sure.
If u see the trailer when it starts 3:08 in the video, u can see Bowser actually pushing peach there, we might get a new pushing mechanic. Also another theory, is that donkey kong (some people say its different cuz the old model wasn't a nintendos one) when he miniturbos, the car jumps when the miniturbo starts. What u all think
You can see bowser throws his fist out "punches" peach, so could be a mechanic where you can kick or punch other racers , "bumping" them into obstacles, obviously heavier characters give a more powerful hit. also peach does ricochet into toad as well from it, and seeing as it occurred on a straight and not in a drift, it seems likely that it is a "hit" mechanic rather than a normal bump/
@@emiliodjjBumbing has always been a thing in mario kart. Nintendo seems to have added an animation for it. But other than that it looks no different from a regular bump.
they probably don't know what to do yet, so they implemented a weird bag in the trailer, let everyone speculate what it is for, then take the idea that makes the most sense for nintendo, and you have your gimmick.

There’s only ONE new feature (not mechanic) I want this new Mario Kart to have: Wonder! I really love Super Mario Bros Wonder, it’s one of my favorite Mario games! The Wonder Effect feature was revolutionary, and I think its concept should be expanded: starting with being added as the signature new feature of the next Mario Kart!
Something tells me that this possible fuel mechanic (related to the first theory) might be similar to the one present in the Cars 2 and 3 games, where you try to sidetrack through specific parts of the track or sometimes get close to the edge of the road to try and get fuel containers, which fill up a meter that allows the player to use a special turbo; it might even be closer to those games, where they might have multiple containers to fill, allowing for multiple turbos, or filling all of them to release a special boost that might be faster than the normal turbo and will last longer. Maybe the new mechanic might not have to do with that bag looking item at all, but it's at least a bit fun to try and come up with possible ideas as to what this new gimmick might be
I mean, it’s definitely a wonder seed. My guess is a unique power up that changes based on the track Edit: I’m wrong. Saw someone talking about it on reddit, and they posted a way clearer version of the image. It is a steaming golden lunch bag. Still, I think it is wonder-based and maybe just a lunch bag theming for this track, because lunch bags showing up in every other track and being the main gimmick of this game makes 0 sense whatsoever, and them showcasing a powerup unique to this track also seems unlikely, so some wonder-based powerup with a unique skin for this track is the only conclusion I can logically come to, maybe y’all can do better, but I can’t
@ contradicting myself, I saw a post on reddit where someone got an upscaled, non-blurry version of the image. It is 100%, confirmed a glowing golden paper bag with steam flowing out of it. It is a lunch bag. Now, is it a lunch bag flavored wonder seed powerup for this specific track? Who knows. My question is why. Why did Nintendo choose to show it? Is this lunch bag the main gimmick of the new game? What does it do? If it is just a fast food flavor of a greater wonder gimmick, then it makes sense. If it’s not, are we going to see lunch bags throughout other maps? That doesn’t make a lot of sense. If it’s unique to this map, then why show it? So, I still think it’s wonder based, cus that is the only logical conclusion I can come to, but the model is 100% a steaming paper bag with a golden sheen.
btw mk7 introduced underwater driving and it had the propeller too
You mean the underwater propeller?
@ well duh 😭
And it was so cute too
My hope is that it is a special type of item box that gives a unique item to each character, like how different characters in Double Dash had unique items. It would definitely bring some much needed variety to the different characters and spice up strategies
In MK7, they introduced under water driving.
What if in this game, they introduce a mechanic where you can drive OVER water?

Hopefully not😊
BTW drafting seems to be removed from MK10, if you watch the CPUs don’t draft at all, either they forgot to add it or they removed it.

the hyyyyypeeeeee les gooooooo, hopefully we get race options to play w more than 12 players. Would give us a lot of variety on how to play the game
I think that driver specific powers would be cool and maybe triple item slots if we’re getting wacky.
You can push people out of their karts and force them to walk for the rest. Good luck wario
The bag might also work simalor to the nitro mechanic in Super Tux Kart
Interesting…. Btw what do you think about the tracks? I dont like that the widths will be like moonview highway and looks of ribbon road with length of wii RR… i want adrenaline and tight corners and intense 200cc!
I do also like tighter corners in general but I think 24 players will be plenty chaotic enough lol
@ we better get a scale modifier for on and offline play alongside with a slider for player count including how many per teams if team mode is on
Wide tracks will probably just be for the easier courses, I can see the tougher courses traditionally found on the right side of the cup selection screen being bumpfests at the start for sure.
you can see 24 dents in the road near the starting line which means there can probably be 24 racers
Why’d you put anti gravity as 8 deluxes when it was 8
Probably a wonder seed that changes the track like the cloud on Yoshi's island
If u see the trailer when it starts 3:08 in the video, u can see Bowser actually pushing peach there, we might get a new pushing mechanic.
Also another theory, is that donkey kong (some people say its different cuz the old model wasn't a nintendos one) when he miniturbos, the car jumps when the miniturbo starts.
What u all think
I don't think it's something minor tho
You can see bowser throws his fist out "punches" peach, so could be a mechanic where you can kick or punch other racers , "bumping" them into obstacles, obviously heavier characters give a more powerful hit. also peach does ricochet into toad as well from it, and seeing as it occurred on a straight and not in a drift, it seems likely that it is a "hit" mechanic rather than a normal bump/
That might be a new powerup!

I think that it is the 24 players and bigger tracks

I thought the new mechanic would just be 24 player, or is that not enough?
Custom tracks

I hope they bring back something like the mega mushroom. That’s not really a mechanic, I’m just saying.
Fuel makes no sense, mario kart is still a game for kids either, its a designe choice, no fuel tank
Does anyone else think mario karts 8s graphics are better?
i was thinking that, mainly base game though
however i wouldn’t judge the new game yet
