Author Topic: Mario Kart Game Cube characters (Read 7325 times)

I've lurked around here for a while, so I know what's um...yeah. Anyway, I was wondering what people's ideas are for the character line-up for the Mario Kart game for Game Cube; my idea is have the same 8 characters that appear in MK64 and MK:SC, but have 4 hidden characters, which would be: Koopa (or little koopa, you know, the amazing character from SMK), Baby Mario (that guy rules, but his voice does not), Donkey Kong Jr. (Hey, he appeared in Mario Tennis, why not Mario Kart again?), and some other heavy-weight character (Kamek? Because Kamek is amazing) to balance it all out, but these are my ideas, and what do I know, I'm stupid, so I doubt my ideas will be used, but then again, Mario Tennis around 18 characters, right?

I'm thinking that Mario Kart GameCube will have the same eight players in it as with Mario Kart 64 and Mario Kart: Super Circuit. Although it gets me angry because I liked the setup of Super Mario Kart better.

What I WOULD like to see for Mario Kart GameCube:

Mario / Luigi / Peach / Toad / Yoshi (can't forget him!) / DK / Wario / Bowser / DK Jr. / Koopa (my second fave) / Kamek

Plus, if I were to have my way, I'd like to see the rest of the Mario Tennis characters in it, like Waluigi / Baby Mario / Birdo / Boo / Paratroopa (my fave in Mario Tennis / Shy Guy.

And can't forget Boshi from Super Mario RPG!

Myself, I would prefer the original 8 from MK:SC and 4 secret players.

Mario/Luigi/Yoshi/Toad/Peach/Wario/DK/Bowser

Secret: Waluigi/ DK Jr/ Kooa Troopa/ and Daisy!
No one else wants Daisy? She would be a great addition to the team!

Well I"d like to have the normal 8 characters in MK64. Secret charaters can be: Koopa,Waluigi,Dasiy and DK.JR

Hey, great minds think alike.
I do hope that more than the eight characters are in this game though...
Mario Tennis was cool with its 16 characters.

Roy Koopa · « **Reply #10 on:** August 14, 2001, 11:30:38 AM »

Indeed. 16 should be minimum. Still only compete with eight in GP mode, but have at LEAST 16 possible choices. You know what I mean?

GhettoMario · « **Reply #11 on:** August 14, 2001, 02:33:09 PM »

Yeah, i agree. Although a race would only feature 8 characters, the possible 16 to chose from would be cool.
Even have the characters automatically set to which races they would compete in, that way you wouldnt have to pick computer racers. Or just have it random....

WarioKart!
Characters: Wario, Waluigi, Foreman Spike, Captain Syrup, Bomberman, uhh... Tatanga?

And besides, DK Jr. is the younger version of Donkey Kong. Donkey Kong is Cranky Kong and Donkey Kong Junior is Donkey Kong. Note that this does not mean that Donkey Kong is Donkey Kong or that Donkey Kong Junior is Cranky Kong.

Toad
Yoshi
DK
Wario
Bowser
Koopa Troopa
Dr.Mario
Waluigi
Daisy
Paratroopa
Boo
DK Jr.
Shy Guy

I''m-a Luigi, number one!

Dr. Mario? Okay, we've got to understand one thing here. Just because the Master Hand lives in Limbo and can take people from any time they want without causing servere damage to the space-time continuum, doesn't mean Mario and friends can do it! God!!!

Green Luigi · « **Reply #20 on:** January 19, 2002, 01:09:20 PM »

I think that Dr.Mario has been in enough games now to distinguish himself as a different character than Mario.

I''m-a Luigi, number one!

Mario
Luigi

Toddathon · « **Reply #23 on:** March 20, 2002, 05:58:18 PM »

Since Square is with Nintendo, Mallow should ride the Super Cloud Car, and Geno should ride the Shooting Star, and Smithy should be a heavyweight racer, and some Paper Mario characters are needed!

GoldenYoshi · « **Reply #24 on:** March 20, 2002, 06:56:51 PM »

My LineUp:
Average:Mario and Luigi (duh!)
Lightweight:Toad,Peach,Boo,and Mallow (Cloud), Lakitu
Heavy:Bowser, Wario and DK
Speed: Parakarry, Shy Guy (Blue), Geno (Star Car), and Kamek
Handling Pros: Bob-Omb, Blue Yoshi, and Koopa Troopa

An extremly rare and valuable Yoshi!

My LineUp:
Average:Mario and Luigi (duh!)
Lightweight:Toad,Peach,Boo (Lady Bow?),and Mallow, Lakitu (lakilester?)
Heavy:Bowser, Wario and DK
Speed: Parakarry, Shy Guy, Geno, and Kamek
Handling Pros: Bob-Omb (Bombette?), Blue Yoshi, and Koopa Troopa (Kooper?)

That is 16, right? I also wish that MK128 (or whatever it's called) will link up to MK:SC on GBA like Mario Golf on GB and N64 did or something in that way. Scine I wished that, I want Twink and Klevar to answer that!

BTW: The names in parentheses mean a Paper Mario Eqivilant, 'cause I really want some Paper Mario characters to race!

I also would like it if Paper Mario was remade for GBA or GC! Mostly GBA, but Maybe Gamecube. Just think, portable Paper Mario!

Princess Toadstool
Yoshi
Donkey Kong (I think it was Jr)
Bowser
Koopa Troopa
Toad

This is what I think should be there:

Yoshi
Toad
DK
Wario
Bowser
Peach
Waluigi
Daisy
Birdo
Koopa Troopa

Ok... I really don't like that Sonic and Tails thing idea or whatever it was because if they were put in this wouldn't be Mario Kart.

Since the GC["N"] has up to 15 times the memory of the N64, Mario Kart Cubed should have more characters than any previous MK game. This would also add some to the replay value. My all-star list of characters:
Donkey Kong
Mario
Luigi
Yoshi
Bowser
Peach
Toad
Wario
Waluigi
Koopa Troopa
Goomba
Link
Zelda
Diddy Kong
Kirby
Samus Aran
Fox McCloud
Pikachu
Jigglypuff
Mewtwo
Snorlax
Ness
Daisy
Bob-Omb
And the sole unlockable character:
Blue Yoshi! (Didn't see THAT coming, did you? Ooh, stealthy!)

Some track ideas:
Star Way (Paper Mario)
Fairies' Woods (Zelda: Oracle of Ages)
some of the sliding levels from SM64

Also, I think there should be more combat this time around. Bowser could use his fire breath to toast the competition around him, Yoshi could trap other racers in eggs for a few secs., Zelda could transform into Sheik and drive a lot faster, etc. And there should be a bit more difference between between characters. There's something mighty suspicious about captain of the burger-munching, fat-Elvis brigade Bowser jumping as high as light-as-a-feather Toad. Some new item ideas:
Fire Flower (burn all nearby enemies)
Super Mushroom (grow 3x your size)
Cape Feather (jump 3x as high and stay in the air longer)
Bomb (send the next enemy who dirves past it flying into the air)
Star (not Starman) (get teleported in front of the leader)
Yoshi Egg (Hit a nearby enemy or obstacle or wall with an unborn Yoshi in an egg, upon which the egg will burst open, and Yoshi will swallow the next racer that drives by)

Hope you liked my ideas. I know I do. Yordle yordle yordle. Wahoo!

Sniff sniff... do I smell a Lucky Fruit? Wahoo!

What I said about Sonic wasn't an idea. It is really true.
