Now that the dust has settled, what went wrong?

things can't go wrong if they were never right in the first place

aside from the roster? Not much.

Garbage roster, even King Boo, Dry Bones and Bowser Jr. can't save it (though they help). Honestly not much beyond that. Deluxe adds battle mode, hopefully it will be good. We'll have to see how the double item-holding impacts the game. It's probably the definitive MK.

>Bowser, then Dry Bones, THEN Bowser Jr., THEN DRY BOWSER

Why the fuck would they order it like that. Why not Dry Bones --> Bowser --> Dry Bowser --> Bowser Jr.? Then Bowser Jr. would flow straight into the Koopalings, the two Bowsers would be next to each other, and a fucking common enemy wouldn't be randomly inserted between them for no reason.

Heavies too strong.

Outside of its fucking disgraceful roster, nothing much else. It's legitimately my favorite MK and nothing you can say will change my mind.

>it's a Sup Forums whines about the roster episode

Lack of time led to the shitpile that was Pink Gold Peach.

Then they did it AGAIN in Sports Mix

They stopped making dlc.

Nintendo should honestly keep making dlc for their "one per gen" games until the gen is over.

Keep making shit for Mario kart, keep making shit for smash. Keep adding to animal crossing etc.

holy fuck you are cancer

No Diddy Kong

I have no problem with all of the other extra characters, but they didn't have to cut Diddy Kong for them. There was no reason for Diddy to be absent, especially with his popularity growing due to the return of the DKC games.

Don't give them ideas.

Weren't they already doing that with SSBforWiiU and MK8?

>implying the Mario Kart DLC was cancer and not perfectly reasonably priced content

Im not saying make 1 track for $5. Im saying make 6 tracks, 4 new karts, 3 new characters for $5.

>They stopped making dlc.
It's a fair assumption that most of the new content in deluxe was originally a 3rd dlc pack that they delayed for the switch version:
- 8 new (battle) tracks, same as each wii u pack
- 4 new characters (inklings count as one), same again
- inkling designs and the splatoon map are from splatoon 1

Mediocre roster. Other than that it's objectively the best game in the series.

I think the tracks were piss poor. Like this might be the worst line up of tracks in the entire series.

Most of them were really boring.

Why is DLC such a bad thing to Sup Forums

Like take Sonic Generations
I'd buy DLC for more levels. There are so many to choose from.

Is it only bad because you have to pay for it? Not that I'm against free DLC but Mario Karts DLC was cheap especially if you got them both in the bundle thing

Really? I thought it had some of the best - mount wario for example

>Garbage roster, even King Boo, Dry Bones and Bowser Jr. can't save it
What else do you even want?

t. Kike blowing Nintenc*ck

>DLC is bad

DUDE

BABY VERSIONS OF EVERYTHING LMAO

You can only have 1 item

>DLC is good

I think it depends on the type of DLC.

Like Payday 2 had some of the worst DLC ever created. Before I quit I had most of the DLC but holy fuck

Some things should be paid DLC but others should be free fucking update content

>being a poornigger

Mount wario is great but it's super fucking short. Which is bad. It should have been two laps

except donkey kong and wario who actually had baby forms in one of the yoshis

>being a frogposter

Petey, Diddy, R.O.B. There are tons of great possibilities for new characters but my choice would probably be E. Gadd.

Given the sheer size of it and the deluxe additions the MK8 roster covers most of what you'd want, but the amount of totally awful characters brings it down for me. Babies, Koopalings, catsuits, metal versions... it makes Honey Queen look acceptable in comparison. Imagine what could have been.

>being a cuck triggered by based pepe
You are not of Kek, you have no place in this board

Zero (0) companions to Donkey Kong
Even Funky Kong over Baby Rosalina would have worked better

What's wrong with the koopalings? They haven't been playable like this in a game. They are more relevant to the mario series than diddy and rob.

>squid boy is a head
>squid girl is a bust
this triggers me

But that's wrong

It's not a double-dash sequel.

I don't hate the idea of including the koopalings but I don't think that idea is good enough to warrant 7 characters. They're certainly the least egregious of the mistakes though. Catsuits, pink gold peach, and baby Rosalina (honestly all the babies besides Mario and Luigi are terrible) should have never been added.

I don't think relevancy really matters. Waluigi is irrelevant to the main Mario games but he's obviously an iconic part of the Kart/Party/sports series.

Non-Marioverse characters when there are dozens more quality Mario/Wario/DK characters to use and prior to Deluxe garbage battle mode
