I was really hoping Nintendo would finally say "screw it", flip the table and give us one incredible Mario Kart 8 game that felt like a celebration of Nintendo much like Sonic All-stars Racing is. This new Nintendo racer letting you play as Link (go kart Epona), Captain Falcon(In an obviously toned down Blue Falcon), Samus (In her spaceship), Pikachu on the back of a Blaziken (due to how fast that Pokemon is). All the new Power-ups like Pokeballs, the Hookshot, A Golden Shovel and so much more obviously.
But Mario Kart 8 does nothing for the series and the image of Nintendo. As much as I love Smash Bros, they seem to be repeating themselves there too. That's Also not me saying Mario Kart 8 is even bad at all (though that battle mode). Though I'm going off topic here.
I would definitely feel like I'm missing out if Nintendo made that type of racer and I didn't own a Wii U. Oh well, Nintendo.
