I think if the DK series is getting more reps, then it's only fair they add the main villain. Also kind of random, but King Bob-Omb would be cool to see. It would bring back nostalgic memories of playing SM64 as a child.
I think so too (why do I have this feeling that Dixie will be a newcomer in MK8 I can+t shake it). Oh yes King Bob-Omb would be awesome to see. He is kinda random but still aweseome
Nintendo owns all the Donkey Kong Country characters. Rare owns Banjo and Conker. Dixie, Funky, Diddy, Tiny and Cranky have all appeared after Rare left. Rambi and Squawks did too. I think K. Rool would be a great choice and I still want Dixie(She will appear in the next DKC Returns game!) in the sports and kart games. She was great in Mario Superstar Baseball!

I think Dixie is a pretty likely character, as Funky already got in, and Dixie is probably next in line for DK characters. K. Rool, maybe. What about a Mario Party character like MC Ballyhoo? He only has one appearance (other than a Brawl trophy I think) but so did Rosalina. Maybe Koopa Kid, but maybe he would be too similar to .
Koopa Kid is way too similar. Best forget about that idea. I was shocked Funky made it before Dixie, but I guess a big character was needed and Funky is cool looking.
MC Ballyhoo! No! Please no! HAW HAW HAW! I'm still traumatized by him.
XD Well also do you guys think that characters from Wario spinoffs could be in. I self think that they would be nice add ons , especially if Mona or Captain Syrup got in (as for Syrup, I want that they keep her WL: shake it design, please don´t change it again)

XD Anyways there are some things I want to talk about in this thread. First of all we all have our hopes for the roster but who do you think that will get in /has highest chances to get in(whether you wanted him/ her or not)? My personal guess is Kamek, because of the fact that he was in MK 64 beta and the fact that he has a lot of apperances lately. I´d actually be pretty surprised if he wasn´t in MK8. Also I think that Dixie Kong and Nabit are pretty likely as well (not as likely as Kamek but still) Secondly what would guys think if there was any DLC content /such as additional characters and courses/ in this game? For me it depended. On otherhand we could get some interesting characters from "rarer" Mario games (like Pauline, for example) . However if Nintendo decided to make DLC it better be well done (especially for the tracks) And finally what do you think about alternate outfits for characters. In my opinion it would be good. Because of multiple reasons (for example no more "recolors" such as Metal Mario = more roster space)

Metal Mario was an insult! I like the idea of alternate outfits. For example, Diddy could have his hero mode outfit from the first DKC game. He wears all yellow instead of his usual red. That would be cool.
I usually do not care for DLC, but if it raises our chances of characters, then maybe I will warm up to the idea.
Dixie has a great chance of getting in because Funky got in, and her model is really easy to make. Tiny might even make it in. She was in Diddy Kong Racing DS!
The event is Eurogamer Expo and it is held 26th till 29th September... (I still need to find any official source which says that they´ll have a "new " racer in it)

I think by "new racer" they meant Mario Kart 8 itself. Could be wrong though. It sure would be nice to see a new racer (as long as it isn't Dry Baby Metal Wapeach's Rotting Corpse)
Argh, that is the frustrating thing about reading articles. Sometimes a phrase can mean two things depending on how it is read. As if we need to know that we have a new racing game. That's like announcing we have a new party game when Mario Party game comes out. Duh. lol

I think that the nitro courses will go like this.
Dolphin Shoals and Bone Dry Dunes will be in the star cup. These things are probably most likely because the best courses of Mario kart 8 go into the special cup. Well, not the best but the most spectacular.
That roster you posted is a wishlist right? Not confirmed. You got my hopes up!
I want to see the Twisted Mansion course that is confirmed. Ghostly courses are my favorites. I'm also excited for a new Rainbow Road or DK level. Oh, and speaking of Rainbow Road, I love your avatar! It is so cool to see such a huge fan of Rainbow Road. ^_^

All the courses are not a wish list buddy! I know right? They are good! I love shy guy falls. Look on the youtuber gamexplain and look through all his recent uploads. Them courses are all true. I just put the TBA courses in a cup I think they should be in.
