why the lack of the first party characters ?
i know it called Mario Kart , but still
they should add more characters
star fox and falcon guy and pokemon trainer and pit ...etc

and get rid of some characters like the turtle ( its a minor character , why add him and not the gomba ? )

You have seen this thread and there are still lots of Mario characters that peoole want but probably won't be in the game, so other franchises would just take the olace of those characters that people want. Also putting those characters you say won't do anything for this game. Mii's are enough for me.

Also, Koopa (the turtle) is one of the eight playable characters in Super Mario Kart so it is a veteran character in this franchise. And finally, Goombas don't have hands

I used to agree with this before but after seeing it in Mario Super Sluggers I think Nintendo has no problem with Goombas holding things using telepathy.

They don't even use Wario and Mario RPG characters. There's no reason to go after other franchises yet when they barely use their own.

Yeah, I don't know why they're averse to using them. I mean maybe they don't want to go through the trouble of using character from Mario RPG such as Geno, but how about Captain Syrup and Fawful?

That wasn't developed by Nintendo though. They've never had telekinetic Goombas in their own in house games.

How do Miis hold tennis rackets, again? Really, are you going to argue that a Goomba driving a Kart wouldn't be realistic enough for Mario Kart? Are King Boos arms even long enough to reach the wheel? He's got T-Rex arms!
