Definitely looking forward to see what kind of kart customization Mario Kart 8 has to offer, that's the one thing that I really feel I'm missing out on not owning 7.
Honestly, I've been playing Double Dash!! a lot recently, and I can say that I don't really care so much about the two-character aspect returning; as far as I'm concerned, it only limits your kart selection per whatever items you prefer. If it were to return without the Special item feature, I wouldn't mind; it'd be a merely aesthetic matter at that point, though. The biggest issue, I'd imagine, is that you'd need a massively expanded playable character roster to support 12 teams of 2 from the get-go, while maintaining the current ratio of starter to unlockable characters (Dry Baby Metal Wawaluigi's a shoo-in, regardless). What I'd really like to see return is Double Dash!!-styled power-sliding, but I can see from the trailers and gameplay that's apparently not happening.
