Honestly before I start about who my favorite character is: Link, Villagers and Isabelle are not MARIO Kart characters. Mario kart has MARIO characters. I don't mind them having a racing game with characters from all different kinds of franchises. They could call it Nintendo Kart. The characters would include Kirby, Meta Knight, King Dedede, Captain Falcon Pikachu, squirtle, gengar (I honestly don't know what other pokemon they would pick) Link, Ganandorf, Zelda, Samus, maybe Ridley, Little Mac, Mega man, Proto man, and bass, Pac Man, Fox, Slippy, Peppy, Falco, Wolf, Mario, Luigi, Peach, Bowser, Yoshi, Wario, Donkey Kong, Toad etc. I would love this game but it is probably not going to happen. The roster would be huge, that might just be half of it I'm sure there is a lot of franchises I left out. So there would be a bigger roster than smash, which is 50+ characters. Plus every franchise would need at least one course. This might be 8 cups of just NEW courses. I think they should use all the mechanics from Mario Kart 8. They shouldn't have to start from scratch again. In fact if it becomes a series they should keep using all the new mechanics that have been in the most recent Mario Kart game. Such a game would take forever though, and we definitely will not see it on the Wii U, maybe not on the NX if they started making it right now. Now my favorite Mario Kart character: Yoshi. I love Yoshi and will always pick Yoshi. Second favorite of the original: Luigi. I do not like Mario. I love his games but when given the choice I ALWAYS choice Luigi. I just like him better. (not because MatPat proved that Mario is a psychopath mind you). Yoshi is just so cute and adorable I love him.
