Reposting my theory:
theres space for atleast 9 more super heavy characters since bowser is the only one (the lightest class featherweight has 10 characters and the most iirc or the one above that class)
My predictions:
Dk Bananza, Kong, Ostrich, Zebra, Elephant, Kremling
Elephant characters: Mario, luigi, peach, daisy
King K rool
Fits the 9 leftover slots perfectly
and if we get any extra its very unlikely but maybe tatanga but he could also be a light if he races outside of his mech.
What characters do yoy guys think will be added
STOP TALKING ABOUT DAISY
TALK ABOUT MONTY MOLE
>>529452728I expect Koopalings to appear in some kind of DLC that adds a lot of varations of past Bowser Castle tracks and locations and Diddy, Dixie, Cranky and maybe Teen Pauline in a DK reference island
>>529452736daisy supremacy general, dirtmole
Relinking to my previous post:
>>529453024
>>529452736Monty Mole is pretty cool
Top 10 Hottest Female Mario Characters
10. Daisy
9.13-Amp
8. Toadette
7. Plum
6. Amy Rose (mario and sonic olympics)
5. Banana Fairy Princess
4. Bombette
3. Doris 1
2. Glamdozer
1. Wrinkly Kong
i want monty mole but i dont want to cheese it in 2P, the unlock must be authentic
>>529452916they wont be superheavy they would be one of the classes below it since characters like DK are not in it, only bowser because he's the fattest
>>529453360wtf are you talking about mole is unlocked by default
There's only one mole for me.
does this man just have such high ping that he exists in an alternate reality where no other players or obstacles exist
Also after playing the Flower Cup - I preferred how Shy Guy Bazaar looked in 7 and Tour - stronger SMB2 theming there and nighttime is just better for it, the final section was better with the original buildings around it and the moon above, the World version somehow also has only one flying carpet Shy Guy which sucks
>>529453729sorry j was thinking of rocky wrench
>>529453352Sarissa didn't rank?
>>529454251i unlocked him authentically earlier today, kamek in toad's factory oddly enough
>>529454276She is 12th after Clawdia Koopa.

>>529455938I'm not sure, but I'll never complain about more Daisy.
>>529455938We WERE planting a garden, but then we got a mole infestation. Now there won't be enough vegetables to last the Winter.

The NSMBU DX OST is now on Nintendo Music.
>>529460724i havent played that game, is it good?
>>529460786It isn't bad as a game, but it lacks freshness.
This makes me wonder whether or not weโll be getting a new NSMB game for Switch 2 eventually

hey look at those points which match up with pauline!adult
>>529474310... why is she wearing a sonic ring? Is it a sign?
>>529474545Yeah. Mario couldn't lock that down so Sonic moved in. Young Pauline is actually Sonic's daughter.
>>529474310Pauline Jr.'s eyeliner is different, her eyebrows are thicker, her backline bangs are arranged like Mario's backline bangs instead of Pauline Sr.'s, her face is fatter, and her hair forms a subtle "M" shape on the top of her head.

>>529475532You really shouldn't give the daughterfag retard the time of day, Anon.
Two more weeks... Two more weeks of this nonsense...
>>529476387damn that's really well drawn
>>529461816People are really reaching with this. She's just young Pauline.
>>529478289De-aged or time travel Pauline*
So let me get this straight, we have 3 game theories
>A) Bananza is a prequel
>B) Bananza is the modern era and pauline got de-aged/sent into the future
>C) Bananza is the modern era and pauline is actually pauline jr
Man, this is some Sonic-ass bullshit. We got fucking eras now. Eras. We got a Classic Era and a Modern Era, what do we call our Adventure Era?
>>529480116That makes no sense
>>529479834A Mario Generations game would be kino
>>529480116Yeah that's the Modern Era, genius.

Definitely confirmed for Mario's daughter.

PEACHES PEACHES PEACHES PEACHES PEACHES
I think it would be nice if DK sacrifices himself and dies at the end to save Pauline, and then in the post-credits scene, we see the stork delivering the modern DK to Cranky Kong, with Bananza DK retconned as DK Jr
I dare you to find her if you can.
In Bananza they'll go full Scooby-Doo the movie and reveal that Kiddy Kong is the one behind it at all.
When will they give Rosalina an outfit that shows off her bare legs.
>>529489513take a long walk off a short pier you worthless gooner, there are too many costumeless characters to be giving more to a character with THREE
>>529489746Nintendo should appeal more to the coomer audience, it worked with swimsuit daisy
>>529489513Her regular outfit does that.
>>529489746They should give both Pauline and kid Pauline when they add her swimsuit outfits.

I was gonna say Oddrock was likely only made to compensate for a post-game with an aged up Pauline (like how Odyssey has a post-game with Peach being rescued) since otherwise the game's plot would have easily worked if they went with Pauline from the start with no Oddrock in-between but then I realized if she goes away, all her customizability is taken away as well which is kind of a spit on the face to the player
>>529475532>>529478289That guy is a severely autistic manchild who spams his folder (all with similar filenames, and probably has hundreds of schizo images by now) on /v/, he not only starts threads but infests others to spam his shit over and over again.
If you don't believe me, just watch out for a DK thread on /v/, you'll see him pop up eventually.
His filenames start with 1000. A completely insane autist that spends all day doing this.
>>529504697whats worse is that i thought the whole SUZANNE spam shit would die after the direct. Why the fuck is ANY of this important it's a fucking DK game, why is he being more autistic about lore shit then a fucking sonic fag
>>529504980>whats worse is that i thought the whole SUZANNE spam shit would die after the direct. Why the fuck is ANY of this important it's a fucking DK game, why is he being more autistic about lore shit then a fucking sonic fagNah this is right up sonicfags alley in headcanon spam territory.
>>529504697Suzanne poster will just be a dedicated drawfag in 2 weeks whether his theories are right or get torn down. It should be manageable then since he'll just be drawing what ever bananza pauline turns out to be.
>lore speculation is bad now
Does deliberately crashing into an obstacle or banana or shell etc right before getting hit by a spiny shell no longer let you i-frame the spiny shell? Itโs muscle memory for me to try this in 8 Deluxe and Tour, but doing it in World just makes me get hit by the spiny shell in addition to the obstacle with no i-frames at all
>>529505821It's because knockback get balanced lower all around in mkw, so they probably made i frames obsolete.
>>529505180Spamming is bad.
>>529505821I frames do exist. Multiple times I've been hit by blue shell before everyone gets hit by lightning but because I got hit by the shell I wasn't affected by the lightning. Might be tighter now.
Lore speculation is fine in the Donkey kong series and Mario RPGs, since those series feel the least self contained in the franchise, and care about continuation of story.
Things like Mario mainline(mostly), Luigi's mansion, and Warioware, Peach showtime, etc. feels like self contained or status quo adventures that only want you to try the new minigame-like gameplay gimmick they thought up for them at the time. So lore stuff for them is minimal in care.
>>529508689Lore talk isn't okay in Donkey Kong either. It never cared about lore.

>>529508689Wario land/world also feels like a continuation story type of mario character subseries but it varies. The latest game had the most care about that aspect, especially aesthetic wise, before the series got shelved.
Luigi's mansion does feel like some story is happening at times, but it's always at a haunted building with King boo capturing something Luigi needs to save. It's pretty much like most of mario mainline games (which also favor rescue plots) but with a lot more cutscene character animation.
Mario sunshine involvement was one of the only times the Luigi's mansion games felt contributing to lore and story. The other time is LM1 stuff like the ghost painting descriptions of LM1, but then the series turned way more light hearted and less lore-heavy.
>>529509358Donkey kong does care about lore. With Cranky kong consistently referring to DK Arcade mario lore in DKC games (along with the opening of the first referencing the iconic mario DK girders) to developing the kong family each game. DK Games don't feel like a reset every installment.
>>529512638You have a example in super show which sounds like fuck.
>>529512638He said "fuck sony" before but they bleeped him
>>529512638https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MBb7nz0HqLM
>>529510740Donkey Kong can't even nail down whether DK is Cranky's grandson or not. Even back in the Rare DK games K Rool was whatever they wanted him to be. Not to mention how DK64 was pretty redundant with Tiny and Chunky Kong because they specifically wanted to avoid all characters from DKC2 and 3 (but later added in Wrinkly).
What you confuse for Donkey Kong caring about the lore is what Rare added because they thought it would be funny. Like how Cranky was originally a kindly old monkey before Rare thought it would be hilarious if they made the old monkey the original DK who constantly shat on the new DK and new gamers as an old coot. Another example would be when K Rool talked about his wife in DKC when that was just a reference that tricked people into thinking he had one.
Then starting from Returns nearly all of it was jettisoned and it's still inconsistent with things like how DK relates to Cranky.

>>529515638>the slopdyssey team got demoted to the DK franchiseGood riddance
>>529515638I thought we already new this.
>>529516260DK franchise is mainline status now, chuddy. More like it's promoted since odyssey team isn't leaving anytime soon.
>>529515638Did it really take 3 months to confirm this? most of the mario fandom called it instantly.
>>529516260Donkey Kong Bananza is our flagship 3D platformer this generation. It's more like Mario got demoted to being second banana.
>>529516608Nintendo's flagship Mario series is Mario kart which is the highest selling. DK will also need to beat Odyssey in sales to truly take the 3d platformer title. Also you could have said "second bananza" for a better joke.
>>529515109Dk being cranky's son is a mistake in 64, he's his grandson again in every game after and was in every game before
Well then, who's working on "SPRed"?
>>529517120>SPRedWhat the hell is that?
im at star world in 3D world, it was easy until this point but now its getting serious mode
>>529517120Miyamoto. He's vibe coding it.
>>529517079it's not even a mistake, cranky just calls him "son" like how old people call everyone that, he doesn't literally mean son
>>529508689Mario sunshine and Odyssey are big moments where Mainline does care about past lore. Mario 3d World Bowser's fury also hopefully is a symbol of breaking the status quo of kidnap stuff for good after odyssey in mainline so we get more unique mainline stories like it.
>>529517269The codename for the next 3D Mario.
Odyssey's codename was "RedStar", and Bananza's codename is "SilverStar".

Bagging didnโt exist until World. Thatโs why Troyโs fail & recovery series did so well. Because you couldnโt recover in Wii.
>>529515638It was so fucking obvious
But at least they didn't hide until after the game came out like they've done for other games recently
Has Super Mario Run been discounted at all lately? I want to try it but I know that the full game sometimes goes on discount
>>529528703i think it goes on sale during mar10 days
>>529504697False, Suzannechad is based.
>>529529218I donโt remember the most recent Mar10 day sale news articles advertising a discount, do they ever announce it or is it just silently discounted that time of year?
Seriously, where the fuck is King K Rool?? We already know he is gonna be dressed like Elvis or a shock jock DJ so just show him already!!!!!

People are speculating that there might be 6 bananza transformations because of there being 6 songs.
>>529552379when are they gonna start creating theories about having a life
Have SMW hacks gone too far?
>>529551535I wonder how much you could break down Pauline Jr.'s phenotype and figure out how much she takes from Mario and Pauline.
>>529553813More of Pauline's phenotype than Mario's.

>>529555056Oh no it's broken containment
>>529554221No, it was three collab hacks by /v/, Super Mario /v/orld. There were /trash/ threads about them for a little over a year full of degenerate fanart, and eventually someone from those threads made their own fat fetish spinoff last year.
>>529555056Why are you screenshotting your own post?

>>529556062He mentioned on v he's 20 and grew up with Odyssey so he wants Mario to get actually married and have a kid. Bro needs to get a summer job or volunteer because his spamming is ridiculous.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=80zmPlZwn5U
>>529558817How have I lived my life for so long without knowing about this
>>529558731Sunshine's ending is bad. Rushed Corona Mountain with boat controls and a final boss fight that might be the worst 3D Mario Bowser boss fight depending on if you consider the last last fight against Bowser in Galaxy 2 as a boss fight or glorified cutscene.
Who the fuck is talking smack about the greatest Mario game in the universe; Super Mario Sunshine?
>>529515638Mario had to be sacrificed so Pauline could thrive.
Sunshine absolutely has flaws but I can't help loving it. I wish the Mario Kart World map existed in the Sunshine engine, I wanna run around this place with FLUDD instead of driving everywhere.
>>529557761>You could grow up with Sunshine.That would be based.
>>529565360The based 3D Mario games to grow up with are 64 and the Galaxy duology. Anything else either gives you a massive chip on your soldier or in Odyssey's case corrupts your mind.
Does changing my Play Activity settings to No One stop people from joining my lobbies?
>>529566170>Galaxy duologySluggish floaty gameplay with the least amount of moves to use of the 3d Mario games but you'll act like it's the peakest thing ever because it has high presentation.
64 gives you a big ego and you also may end up like kaze or lategame pannekeok
Can people just explain why they want it so, so, so, so, so so bad for it to be Pauline's child?
>>529568286>peopleLiterally one guy
>https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/rs-gaming/donkey-kong-bananza-switch-2-preview-1235375349/
>At first, the game seems like it could be a prequel to the 1981 original starring a younger version of Cranky Kong, except that character directly appears in the world as an NPC. Perhaps this Pauline could be the daughter of the one players know, which would be fitting, given how the nebulously Donkey Kong exists as one of multiple family members in his lineage depending on the game. Right now, itโs a mystery, but could end up being brushed aside entirely.
Even major news sites are suzanneposting now...
>>529568353I started posting about "Mario's daughter" in early May.
There were people wanting "Mario's daughter" as early as April 5th, the day that the Pauline leak was discovered.
I am not lying about this fact.

>>529569603holy fuck coop makes mini pauline broken as shit
>>529567934You see, you get a massive chip on your shoulder. By growing up with any other 3D Mario aside from those three. You proved my point.

remember mario galaxy?
>>529515638I hope this means the 3d mario is a mario and peach game, or atleast one where peach doesn't get kidnapped while playing a important roll.
>>529575682Mario Galaxy? Hey man, what that?
>>529577181>one where peach doesn't get kidnapped while playing a important roll.>peach gets fat
I hope in the next Mario game Peach gets kidnapped again.
They should bring back the Vibe Scepter and establish it as a key part of Peachโs toolset
>>529577209God, the Oogtar posting... lol.
>>529578367DINOOOO BUNGA!
>>529578791Will we ever get together to watch the Super Mario cartoons again? I thought it was fun...
>>529579010Dino bummer dude...
shit > Stanley > Vivian > Oogtar > Yellow Yoshi
>>529577181Sounds trash. Peach will get kidnapped and will be saved by the brothers (mostly Mario).
Did we ever get a reason as to why DK replaced Kamek in MK64
>>529580651They never had to justify it. Though it's obvious that DK replaced Kamek because when Kamek was planned they were unsure about including the new DK with 'tude.
Should I wait before unlocking Mirror mode to keep doing knockout tours? Should I have waited until unlocking Mirror before trying for 3 stars on the rallies in the first place?

Found a (preliminary) map of all the roads in the world, this should be helpful since the in-game map isnโt this detailed and the minimap doesnโt really help
Bros, I've lost my copy of Mario Odyssey.
>>529584213Hey Switch2babs
Is Cataquack unlocked on regular Peach Beach or does it need to be one of the connecting routes? I just did 32 races with four controllers on autopilot and no luck.
>>529585115I unlocked Cataquack on Peach Beach (on lap 1 during the original GCN section, if that matters) and got him again on the Peach Beach to Salty Salty Speedway route
>>529584735This is why you should only buy digital!
Does mk8 look kind of pixelated on switch 2 for anyone else?
>>529586208Probably because you're going from high rez Mario Kart to a lower rez one.
>>529586062This may be the tipping point for me.
>tfw shitters have started to bag
>they utterly fail at it and end up last

>>529577540Unronically better than her getting kidnapped.
>>529579832Just like how a dk and pauline game sounds trash untill that first switch 2 direct
>>529588475No, that actually sounded pretty cool even before the direct.
>>529580651Kamek was just a placeholder.
After playing free roam for a bit, does Rosalina control a monopoly? Why is every single bus in the Mushroom Kingdom operated by her company, Rosalina Bus Tours? What are the Mushroom Kingdomโs regulations regarding fair trade and business? And since Rosalina is from space and (probably) a different planet, wouldnโt she count as a foreigner to the Mushroom Kingdom? Are there any laws against her creating a business monopoly with her bus company, and is she a tax resident?
>>529589535She also owns the equivalent of Tesla.
You may not agree with me, but this is what a peak hero looks like.
Also, back in MK8, the buses used to be run by 4 different companies: Galaxy Air, BBIA, Paratroopa Airlines and Toad City Sightseeing; none of these companies seem to be referenced anywhere in Wirld at all, did Rosalina manage to have Galaxy Air expand until it eliminated all of its competitors from the Mushroom Kingdomโs bus industry, and then created Rosalina Bus Tours as a new subsidiary of Galaxy Air to specialise in bus operations in this new industry monopoly? Was this legal under the Mushroom Kingdomโs trade regulations? And since Rosalinaโs not native to the Mushroom Kingdom, is this actually a hidden metaphor for IRL big foreign businesses and conglomerates entering a smaller area and pushing all the local businesses into bankruptcy?
Who's getting the best head?
>>529589852i want to talk about this game more but it's been completely taken over by a couple retards that won't go away until launch comes. hell the lack of any k.rool posting is grim (and probably due to those shitposters derailing it into shipping faggotry)
>>529590701None of them are getting head.
>>529590847K.Rool ships? That's a new one (for me.)
>>529590847I hardly ever see K.Rool ships.
>>529590847But K.Rool has a wife
>>529592403His wife is so lucky...
>>529588792Why is dk and pauline a good idea, but the idea of peach not being kidnapped while playing an important npc roll a trash idea?
what's the worst kart in world and why is it funky dorrie

>>529592835Bananza has ruined Pauline.

>>529593189What's wrong with water? My best friend was a glass of water and he was always a glass half full type of guy.
>>529594308most water courses have optional land / air routes to be taking instead and they're faster than attempting to use a water kart in water
>>529590692>>529589535Peach is a corrupt figurehead and often times enables these takeovers so she can skim the top off while her cronies make easy money.
>>529594504Then why don't they flood the courses so we have more water?
>>529594807because then some weird guy in a robe will show up and start saying cryptic shit about wind while kidnapping local women

I have decided that I will compromise and keep de-aging and time-travel theories on the table in addition to the Pauline Jr. theory.
I will be okay with whichever theory gets confirmed.

>>529612138>juniorAre you saying Pauline is male?
I was priced out of the hobby.
I've just passed the days unemployed and playing Smash and Kart 8 DX.
>>529605042I think that it's a cool moment too. Might have been better to leave as a surprise
>>529612706Junior is gender neutral.
>>529612680I will be okay with that too.
I considered the de-aging theory because the costumes for Mini-Pauline, that I have seen so far, retain her purple bracelet and hair tie.
>>529557761kek, you spotted the cubebabies from a mile away
>>529612680That would mean it's just a prequel, which personally would fucking suck ass. You make a Donkey Kong prequel game, and this is the best you can come up with? Instead of showing how he formed the DK Crew, became the leader of the bunch, met K. Rool, and turned into Kongo Bongoโs hero, we get Pauline as the protagonist in a bland, feel-good story about "following your dreams" and singing being some kind of magical power? Why would I care about a plot that's just a massive retcon that destroys and undermines the universe lore?
>>529613082Name a single example of a female "Jr". Real or fictional.
>>529611989We knew everything about Mario Kart World the day it was revealed
>>529614484Anna Eleanor Roosevelt Jr.

>>529611989Two weeks ago you were bitching about how they weren't showing anything
>>529616301He died in the kong war...
I just saw footage of the bramble blast level in bananza. At this point it would be dumb if K. Rool isn't in the game in some form.
>First time we get copy pasted (not literally but y'know what I mean) levels from the past
>All the crocodile enemies, which weren't in the Returns duology
>All the references to the Country trilogy and 64
>Cranky implying K. Rool is still alive by saying he suspected who stole the bananas
On another note, man is it gonna be annoying to hear the almost 50 year old woman doing teen Pauline comment as you progress the level.
Bitch wasn't even told to do a younger voice she's straight up doing the regular Pauline voice...
>>529616624Cranky never outright mentioned K. Rool though.
>>529616624K. Rool is just Brand X Bowser, I'd rather they lean in to Void Kong or another unseen villain. Or a true deep cut like WizPig
>>529616624All we need now is Xananab to return
>>529616805Cranky doesn't use VoidCo character icons in his speech bubbles when he's talking about banana thieves while other characters do.
>>529616624Wart any day now...
>>529617939Shouldโve been the secret boss in Dream Team
>>529618112Shit, that would have been kino.
>>529617558Not sure if Nintendo can even use Wizpig.

Didn't realize it until I saw the new videos but Void Co's flying enemies seem to be fossilized bees or wasps of a kind.
The canon pairings are now Mario X Nobody, Peach X Daisy, Rosalina X Wario and Pauline X Waluigi?
What's with the friend licenses? Are they bugged? I know for a fact the first two play the game and don't use Mario and the default sticker.
>>529603149I think the two have the same penalties and bonuses to their Speed.
>>529644303Just checked my own list and yeah, itโs all Marios with 1-up fuel even though Iโve seen some of them play the game, unless your driver and sticker donโt update until you actually play a race or battle online and nobody on our lists has raced online yet? (I know I personally havenโt)
>>529645240Some of them I definitely have raced online with though
I don't think the games ever describe Daisy as a tomboy
>>529648148Mario land describes her as a tomboy in the manual and it's how she's portrayed in every sports game
>>529644660no? lobster has 7 / 6 / 8 speed, dorrie has 4 / 3 / 7
why do i never see paulines online? the three princesses i see 1-3 per lobby, but pauline is like once per 5 lobbies if i'm lucky
Nobody believes in me and you
Just look at the way they stare

Technically she should be better than Rosalina though
>>529654963yeah, she's just rosalina but with better stats, yet rosa is way more popular
that fucking bird that i hate is a /smbg/ certified meme and is part of our general culture
https://youtu.be/OOBXmJRPO_s
>>529648148She doesn't even act like one.
I can't comment on hardware or software performance changes but playing MKW in handheld mode makes my personal performance drop noticeably. I go from top 5 to dropping out on knockout tour early. This is unacceptable.
>>529652125It actually has about -0.2 of it's displayed Speed for smooth and rough road and +0.4 of it's displayed Speed for water taking into account that rough and water driving is slower in general than driving on the average road on top of it's terrible acceleration. By contrast, Dorrie has 0.4 change in difference to it's displayed speed for it's weak (smooth, rough) and strong (water) roads but has a much better acceleration stat.

Last night I dreamt there were surprise game reveals for a Nintendo tournament being streamed

>>529696982He's part of the Nintendo Board of Directors. That's not news, and it was never a theory.
I find it interesting that they chose to give Pauline fully voiced lines in Bananza. I wonder if this is something theyโll keep doing in the future with other characters or if this is just a one time thing.

>>529695652idk why people have been having trouble with the CPUs in this game, they suck ass, i'm always so far ahead that a blue shell isn't enough to help them catch up
>>529711286CPUs are adaptive, so terrible players like you will get terrible CPUs..
>>529711759they adapt to me being ahead by losing harder?
>>529711834You're so bad that the CPUs shit themselves as if they even exerted 1% of their true power you'd be in last place.
>>529712001how exactly are they able to determine that i'm "bad" when i spend the entire race in 1st place
are you sure you aren't just coping anon
>>529712085>how exactly are they able to determine that i'm "badThe way you type screams "I'm terrible at Mario Kart". It's the bravado, it's what belongs in instant loss.

>>529713241You get double teamed by Peach and Daisy's cocks, kek.
>>529706112Sightseeing or Vacation.
>>529711286It's a luck based game. The problem isn't that the CPUs are "good" or the players are "bad" (for the most part), it's that 2nd place CPUs pull 6 red shells while the 1st place player always gets 1 coin and only 1 defensive item. And then when they're in 2nd place, the player only pulls shit like hammers and super horns when the 1st place CPU is too far away for those to do anything.

Funny how Waluigi went from one of the best characters in MK8D to arguably the worst character in MKWorld (tied with Pianta.) Almost feels targeted.
looks like heavy characters are using that blue sled over the blooper kart. did people find out it's better?
>>529750345what in the fuck are you talking about that's the worst vehicle in the game
>>529750398i dunno man, I just keep seeing rosas and waluigis using that sled. I thought it's because it's good
>>529752207no it's absolutely awful, it's the only thing in the game with an acceleration stat of 0
acceleration is extremely important online
and what does it get to make up for it? water speed. stunning.

The worst thing is they will never drop the hybrid console bullshit because it's their only gimmick left now. We get to enjoy base ps4 games now, hooray. But they will cost as much (or more) as brand new cutting edge games for some reason. I wonder if the japanese executives wear little hats.
>>529781019I don't mind the idea of the hybrid bullshit, just give me a console version.
- no screen
- 'big ass' (relatively) cooler and quiet but chunky fan
- clocks higher, but devs aren't allowed to target it directly.
- 4-8 gamecart slots.
- macmini formfactor
>>529777396bowser is one of the worst characters online, what sort of shitter elo are you in
>>529782846well there's your problem
climb another 1k or so and everyone will be a lightweight in a baby blooper
>>529782897I've seen a few around, but they're always sitting back last.
I'm daisy for the moment, but if you think dex comes back in, maybe i'll look into smaller bikes.
>>529783079don't use the max handling / accel bikes, their stats are awful, they trade all of their speed for a little bit of acceleration
mach rocket or R.O.B. are your best bets for bikes because they maintain a ton of speed on the by-far-most-common environment, roads
highest vr is baby/toadette blooper with everyone stopping at first item set game is unplayable gonna tank my vr to get some human players instead
>>529783243I'm using daisy/rob right now.
>>529781837Well, I don't see them doing that ever because they want the "experience" to be the same. Also, I fucking hate it but I respect it. Keep production costs low because you're literally developing for a handheld, charge full price. If anyone asks about it say "console limitations". They basically exist in their own little world, unaffected by what everyone else is doing. And it works, it's ludicrously successful. Frankly I don't know what they have to do to get any sort of real backlash.
>>529783357I don't mind that they'd target only the handheld version, the 'console' version would be a spin-off like the 'lite' version, just no screen vs. only screen.
switch2 is massive though for what it is, I don't care for handheld gaming but instead of taking up less than a squished coke can, it's taking up a six pack.
>>529781837dont forget higher internal memory and possible expansion capabilities because it isnt trying to fit everything into a cheap tablet.
>>529783357also probably dont wanna do that because consumers in dire straits right now and cant afford to throw money around.
if nintendo is smart they should conserve their money during this rough patch
>>529783593>switch2 is massive though for what it isYeah, I don't get it either, it's not comfy. If you go back in years, handheld consoles started absolutely massive, then got tiny, then back to massive for the modern ones. I think it's because miniaturizing the components hasn't advanced as well as the performance/expected now, plus the screen size. I mean, the goddamn hogs need a fan. There's only so much you can do to make it small.
>>529784306for the handheld- make it thicker.
WiiU Gamepad is still 10000x more comfy than either switch.
But also i want a macmini formfactor version, a 65w console is easy there. Just copy Apple's homework and be done.
I hope they give her cuter outfits than what has been shown to us already

How the fuck does the wall ride mechanic work? is it mostly a meme that rarely gets used? I never find myself using it and the few times I have it just kinda ends quickly??
>>529795003No, and yes.
They just license out their games and do ports.
Capcom killed them in the 3DS era.
>>529795305It's useful in some circumstances for shortcuts.

After messing around with the photo mode, itโs fun and I appreciate being able to have my character actually change their pose while taking the photo, but why donโt photo filters return? It would be so nice to have the sepia or black and white or spooky photo filters available to use in World for even more interesting photosโฆ
>>529797919how does he go so fast on the snow? I feel when I touch off road I slow to a fucking crawl
>>529797985I guess that would be convenient. I'd probably never use them myself. You can apply whatever you filter you want after exporting to your phone/computer
>>529797919its weird how transparency effects are rare nowadays and most just use dithering like this
>>529798640different types of off road affect your speed in different ways, in my experience grass and sand tend to slow you the most
>>529799236I liked the in-game photo filters from Tour, you couldnโt take a similar shot like this in World without them. Also I wish that you could place the stickers you have around your photo area like Bowserโs Fury let you do with 3D Worldโs stamps for its photo mode
>>529793342spam low levels
for walls it's a case by case basis since those charge much faster
>>529797723Not sure if there's something that specific, you may need to look into specific shortcuts.
mario is a big dumb doo doo head
>>529801229Shut up Wario.
>>529802246Rosalina...
>>529800397honest question is spamming tricks in the air like that actually giving speed boosts each time? I was told only the first trick you do per air time gives the boost, the rest does nothing

Did anyone NOT cry when they first played World Rainbow Road? I donโt see how you couldnโt
>>529806715i smiled through it, especially the last lap, but it wasn't really "moved to tears" level
it's a shame that they spent 200,000 hours developing an empty world rather than something like a story mode, would have been a good finale for that
>>529806482They help with angling.
>>529806482they don't do nothing, sideways tricks will slightly nudge you to the side (or greatly if you're in a glider)
>>529807634i love doing the route from airship fortress to bowser's castle because it makes me imagine what it would be like to actually storm bowser's castle in a story mode
>>529806715>crying because of fictional mediaMaybe 15-20 years ago, can't remember the last time I cried. I had bad shit happen to me IRL, people dying and I didn't cry. That's a problem with me mind you, like sometimes I feel I should REALLY be crying but I just don't. Oh yeah, Mario games...
>>529806715the water/cavern-like section got an audible gasp out of me, shit was beautiful
i also really like how the last bit of the song always lines up perfectly with you crossing the finish line
Bowserโs Castle is the only skill expressive track in the game
>>529806715I only ever cry when beating Mario RPG or MOTHER 2.

>"Not my K. Rool!"
>>529807634how is it an empty world if the entire world is full with race tracks?
I HATE INTERMISSION TRACKS
I HATE INTERMISSION TRACKS
I HATE INTERMISSION TRACKS
>>529811352what are you supposed to do after you've already raced on them all
>>529811421The same thing you do in every Mario Kart game when that happens, or in this case there's also Free Roam.
Also I noticed that the end credits has a picture of Daisy with the caption โDesert Princessโ, how are people still in denial over Sarasaland being a desert or Daisy being brown like an arabian princess?
>>529811352i wouldn't call a bunch of straight lines "race tracks"
>>529811352ADHD riddled zoomers think the world is empty if their isn't a tiktok video every 5 seconds.
>>529811421you race on them again, this is a racing game.
>>529813440but i already had a racing game with 96 tracks in it
>>529813667okay? i already had a 3d platformer in mario 64 but that didn't stop me from getting any future 3d platformers
>>529813906but if the solution to an empty game is "race on the tracks again" shouldn't i just race on the tracks again in the game with more tracks to race on?
>>529811658I donโt dispute her being a princess over a desert kingdom, but she is not remotely brown. Stop forcing your retarded headcanon Ahmed.
>>529814668why are you asking for my validation whether you want to play mk8 instead? go play the mobile ported tracks instead if you really want to.
>>529811658Sarasaland is a desert and Daisy is a sister, alhamdulillah.
>>529814883The mobile ported tracks are more fun on mobile than they are in MK8 though
>>529811658Have you seriously never seen a scrapbook before
>>529814882a light skinned arab is not white, so by default she is brown.
>>529814883that isn't what i want, i want mario kart world to have things to do in it
>>529817312That'll be DLC.
>>529817312you have 394 missions and hundreds of collectibles in a side mode.
>>529816872this has to be fake
>>529817994the game isn't giving me any indication of how many are left (unlike the panels), so i can only assume i got them all
>>529818158there are 394 missions.
>>529818195according to what official source
>>529818104DK pulls different faces every time you get a banan, like how Mario has different ways he holds out his hand

>>529818386Oh. Well that's alright then.
>>529814883>go play the mobile ported tracks instead if you really want toWere these really that bad? I played them briefly online when it came on from others having the dlc or pass but I'm not a kart man really, just very casual. The only thing I remember is that you could tell when a mobile port was on. That DLC wasn't all mobile ports, was it? It's still odd that they did it, they seriously went with quantity over quality. The entire selling point was "look, we're adding a billion tracks!".
>>529814882by that retarded logic if yours pale middle easterners are european

Playing Kart 8 DX online makes me happy I never got the Switch 2
I would kill myself if my only game was Kart
I fucking hate losing so much at Kart and apparently World is even more sweaty than 8 DX
>>529821383World is easier than 8 DX to do well in. Bagging is a lot more effective in World.

Not getting World, but I'm curious about one thing. Are bananas inherently nerfed because of the non-repeating tracks?
>>529821692>handheldfagStay away from children.
>>529823365Genuinely what the fuck is wrong with you faggot
>>529822684Bananas are only useful for defense now. But at the same time it feels like it's harder to defend with triple bananas past the first hit, same for triple shells.
>>529822154Thank you for beta testing.

>this is supposed to beat mario kart
>>529827625Given how upset people are getting with the new Kart and Nintendo in general, it could very well happen.
>>529820306Do you have autism? It is very closely related to face blindness. I suggest you see a psychologist if your ability to discern between people is this bad. Daisy looks fully European to everyone else.
>>529828003Even with the update, it keeps selling a shitton, but keep coping.
>>529821692>battery lifeno handheld can fit enough battery for modern games
>>529828365I said it's a possibility given the circumstances around it, not that it was a guarantee. Maybe you ought to consider "coping" over your lack of reading comprehension.
>>529826769What are you talking about, retard?
>>529828620Well, it certainly doesn't help when you put a shitty little phone-tier battery in your expensive "next-gen" console, does it?
Who is the most attractive Mario character and why is it Goombella?
>Mario Kart Update will kill Nintendo any day now
>t. increasingly nervous man for the 14th day in a row
>>529832274According to a study Nintendo did, Luigi is considered the most attractive among female fans. Take that as you will.
>>529822684A good thrown Banana can still be annoyance because it's still something you have to dodge.
>>529832916What about male fans? Rosalina?
>>529806482Only first trick gives the boost, but multiple angled tricks are very useful for positioning (and occasionally for getting a late boost on the ground) so multiple tricks is often more useful than not.
>>529822684They're good for trapping the best double boxes (or the only ones) to force racers behind you to go for singles or into worse lines as well as on high gaps.
Also for defense. Put a coin in front if you can because the coin will shield your bananas (and other items) from Boo.
>>529832916Considering some of the postsand videos seen here and elsewhere, I can believe that. (And I could also believe that some of those might self-insert as Daisy.)
Pretty impressive how free roam Dino Dino Jungle is completely different from racing on it, itโs like an entire new level built over the original layout

Another photo op: โHey broโฆ. why are you so much bigger than me?โ
>>529845498it's only diverse right now because we don't know all of the hidden stats
sooner or later some youtube degenerate is gonna say one combo is the best combo and everyone will copy him
>>529845882I wish the game let you get out of the car during Free Roam, like Kirby Air Ride's City Trial mode. I feel like a lot of the really annoying medallions would be easier if I could just jump from standing still instead of needing to charge it up from a distance.
>>529846143we do know the hidden stats, and there is a lot of overlap
>>529846713we know some of them, not all of them
For me it's the pipe frame
>>529847105this dude likes having 2 speed
Last month was the first time I ever paid attention to the NSO icon rewards for playing certain games, do they not change the games each month? It's still the same four Mario games and Animal Crossing.
>>529847334you expect them to have new PNGs every single month? come on anon that's asking a bit much for your paid subscription
>>529847438But the PNGs are different, the games are what I'm asking about.
>>529844984Funky Bike Wii was better. At least Funky Kong was a cool character to pick. You also had Daisy.
>>529847334They're rotated on a regular basis, but actual lengths vary from set to set. The current Mario set is up until the 7th.
>Niggas think the meta matters in Mario Kart
>>529848239Do the games ever change or is it always Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Odyssey, 3D World, and SMB Wonder?
>>529848627Oh, I misunderstood. No those four games have been permanent fixtures for a while now. Over a year, at least, rotating their sets every so often.
Continued photo op: โBro nooooo!!!โ
>>529849110Wow, what a dick
>>529848873That's a shame, I would have thought they would rotate the games so they might scoop up some extra sales for an older Zelda or Fire Emblem or what have you. Gave me a reason to pick up Odyssey again for the first time in years, so I was kinda hoping they'd do the same for other games I might have dropped or outright skipped.
>>529849301They do rotate in other games that have sets every now and then, they're just not on a permanent slot like the four Mario games.
I feel like thereโs somehow not enough โquietโ night music in the game, it seems like all I hear at night is Shroom Ridge, Peach Gardens, Maple Treeway and Space Junk Road

>>529879364the bananza transformations are SOVL, i can't believe they weren't stopped from making cursed shit like the ostrich bananza
>>529885141I don't like the new transformations desu. they're too busy and the color pallettes are really ugly
>>529886678its just grey and yellow which is fine but maybe they could get rid of the weird purple flames. I think purple and yellow is fine though reminds me of Wario maybe he will show up and be the guy in overalls cranky is talking out theres my crazy insane theory that won't happen.
For a while I've felt the inherent problem with adding new human characters is that they'd feel too "fanficy" which is why they're seldomly added if at all.
That and EPD's design philosophy emphasizing gameplay before everything else.
Daisy only exists as an extension of Super Mario Land taking place in a foreign locale and was later bumped up for the roster in Camelot's games where she just stuck.
Wario likewise exists because they wanted to do something different and not be restricted to past Mario titles and this extended to presenting Mario with an objective about reclaiming something that was his' rather than fight on behalf of someone else.
Both these characters were made by R&D1
New Donkers in Odyssey are deliberately meant to be odd looking to sell shock value to the player.
But I have to ask, what was the reception to Rosalina upon first being revealed?
I know she's a massive fan favorite these days and I see her appeal but how did people feel about her upon introduction pre-release?
>>529887634people were pretty positive about her since she was the first new mario girl in a long time. I think this idea is reinforced by the fact that they started putting rosalina in a bunch of spin-offs as a playable character
>>529887634*new human characters in mainline Mario
>>529847874Daisy is also present in the picture you are complaining about.
Is there a list or pictures of every sticker in the game yet?
>>529887634the warioware characters look a lot better after they got redesigned in gold(?)/get it together. a lot of them could easily pass in mario kart now. the camelot designs like modern daisy and waluigi are also top tier (even better than warioware definitely). I think adding new human characters is fine they just have to be designed well. And Rosalina was a fan favourite on release
>>529888474Both Funky and Daisy were meta picks in Wii.
>>529887634Rosalina started to be despised by everybody post 2010. She still is aside from zoomers.
I like funky kongs design and I hope they bring him back as DLC in world
>>529893107there was a poll here and somewhere else and she won both, daisy is 2nd most popular and then pauline and peach pretty much draw. I dont think anyone is sick of rosalina when peach is way more spammed by nintendo
Is Wario an elf/fairy? 1st off he has elf ears which is weird. But then look at his games and they often have fairies and other nature spirits in them: wanda (mario and wario), spritelings (wario world), sprites (warios woods), merfles (shake it), etc. He also has a lot of parallels to fairy folklore stories: mischief and greed, a lot of fairy creatures are tricksters and also greedy and love treasure. he also loves garlic which traditionally wards off evil spirits and is found in a lot of places with fairy folklore. He also is a bit like a changeling with his evil mario persona. what do you guys think?
>>529847105Same, it's great.
>>529846774Generally speaking, looking at the test data, hidden stats are essentially more akin to modifiers where the stats are exactly as you expect when driving a generalist vehicles and skewed towards excelling on one type of terrain at the expense of the others when using a specialist vehicle. Characters in-between the heaviest and lightest weight classes also have a bonus in a certain type of terrain where their max speed is treated as equal to the weight class above them while the lightest and heaviest characters' stats are exactly what they say they are.
Now, considering this bonus, I think that somewhere in their stats, and equivalent penalty has been applied to a stat dependent on terrain for the non-lightest and non-heaviest weight classes, and that would be to one of the handling stats. This would also explain why certain vehicles show an increase in speed and a deduction in handling that is not there for the lightest and heaviest weight class because they're taking into account the speed bonus and handling penalty of the character.
>>529887634I thought she was neat when I first played Galaxy
>>529887634She was interesting since it was the first time we had seen a new princess-esque type character since Daisy. Post-release she also became very well liked for her motherly nature towards the Lumas and her backstory.
If Nintendo want to de-meta Mario Kart World they should tie certain costumes to certain stat bonuses. That way every character aside from the mooks would be able to freely specialise in certain terrain and you'd see a whole lot more characters.
>>529898448That's not a bad idea. I dig it, but that would also require them to add more costumes since lots of characters have like 2 or 4.
>>529891678Jesus Christ you are incredbly retarded my man. All of them look worse after the redesigns, and they do not remotely look more 'Mario-esque' if anything they look even more dettached from it and more like Ko's normal art style.
they should give all of the princesses and pauline a micro bikini outfit
>>529898448Metafags would still choose the smallest character model
>>529887634As an old fart who's been around since the olden days of the internet itself I recall that the overall discourse for each addition was:
-People were weird about Waluigi at first, embraced him after the Gamecube sold people on his personality thanks to stuff like the Mario sports spin offs intro animations
-People absolutely hated Bowser Jr. and wanted the Koopalings back, most people that hate him still do but the new generation of fans that grew up on him bring the hate down
-Daisy had a time where she was disliked due to her screaming sound clips, the hate went away with time (always found it odd people found her annoying since screaming in funny voices is what most characters in the franchise do anyway)
-No one ever had a problem with Toadette, people just accepted her more or less
-Rosalina was instantly popular, I recall her being the first time I saw a character get fanart on the same day they got revealed in the franchise from both american and japanese accounts despite this being times before social media art community really got going hard
There was a time where people whined about Petey Piranha showing up in spin offs as if a "random boss" wasn't deserving but that was a minority of weird schizos that got mad at things due to pure 'tism
>>529837978Dino Dino Jungle is the best old track in World. It's intermissions are good, it's great in Free Roam, and whether as the end of an intermission or as a standard 3-Lap track, it's always fantastic!
>>529893107>this is what Daisyfags really believe
>>529899461Only the hardcore metafags.
>>529899480that is pretty much what i saw too. people hated waluigi initially because they said he was going to have his own name called "waluigi's toenail clipping" and people thought that was real lmao
>>529899480daisy was particularly egregious in double dash which is where the hate comes from, she was even louder than normal in that and you could spam her voice lines by constantly swapping characters in the karts so people would pick her just to be annoying.
I predict that a Mario spinoff anime will be announced for the 40th anni

>>529903997It will star Suzanne (Pauline Jr) and a host of other legacy characters as they have to rescue Mario, Luigi and Peach from Bowser.
>>529904751Maybe not Mario, and Bowser can't just kidnap Peach again.
>>529904728Never. The whole point of that flash game was to introduce Waluigi and (by proxy) Mario Tennis 64, much like other flash media produced by Nintendo in the early ages of the Internet.

Mario plan for the switch 2
Why wasnโt there a Rainbow Rally that ended with Rainbow Road?
>>529908096would be too kino and they'd never be able to release another mario kart game again because everyone would just replay it over and over.
If I made it I'd put every rainbow road in it since there is no laps anyway in knockout it will not be that long. Maybe make SNES take 3 laps because I like it and it's short.
