*not sure if 666 is talking about my avatar...If so, she's not a cat girl

No, I was not referring to your avatar. She is not worthy.

We should have a "Game Trailer" thread where people bark out indirect links the moment they find them. Like Amazing Deals, which should also be sticky.

Not that sticky.

Some small spoilers about the number of riders...Don't b**** at me if you look

It seems that there are 20 racers total, making 4 secret characters. According to EGM, 11 of the 20 have never been in Mario Kart before...Wow...

What about Captain Falcon?

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #506 on:** October 24, 2003, 01:30:41 PM »

That would be friggin awesome. Falcon's always the badass guest star.

hey i also have a feeling sonic and tales are in this, i dont like sonic but, i have heard plenty of rumors+ who else could there be.

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #508 on:** October 24, 2003, 05:58:13 PM »

Rumor has it that E.Gadd could be one...But how I hate that character >_<

Molobert · « **Reply #509 on:** October 24, 2003, 08:28:13 PM »

SPOILERS

It's confirmed that Toad and a character named "Toadette" are 2 of the secret characters. As for the other 2 I don't know, but I'm guessing Boo and someone else. Link (it's the first pic on the top)
Go Toad!

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #510 on:** October 24, 2003, 08:36:48 PM »

It is interesting how there is no Boo item...It could be E.Gadd's secret weapon

akdaman1 · « **Reply #511 on:** October 24, 2003, 10:51:43 PM »

hey why are charecters spoilers...tracks maybe..i wish C-E had told us who the secret charecters are.

I'm a pretty big Mario Kart fan, but I feel something snapping...
So from what I'm seeing there are only 5 multiplayer Battle maps???
I've begged, pleaded and prayed for dozens of levels to battle it out in with my buddies.
And after 7 years all Nintendo can come up with are a mere 5 freaking multiplayer Battle grounds?!?!

I honestly think I just died a little inside

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #513 on:** October 25, 2003, 05:15:57 PM »

Um, there's 6...which is better than 4 so stop complaining...

Wow you are SOOOO right about that, you totally convinced me to not be pissed off about it Bill, thanks super duper much!

Hey everyone, Bill is THE best Nintendo fan here, I mean if it weren't for him, I wouldn't have realized that Nintendo increased their amount of Multiplayer Battle levels from 4 to 6.

I HAVE to look at this from the bright side! That it's like a GIGANTIC 150% increase in maps!

You just failed to realize one thing: that it's ridiculous that after the one complaint every review in the world (well almost) gave was that the previous console Mario Kart had too few multiplayer battle maps, WE WOULD LIKE TO HAVE MORE FREAKING OPTION!! I will still love this game, but why wouldn't I be allowed to complaint about the mode I will most play? It's like stepping back in time and say, let's not enhance this mode but make it exactly the same, with the exact same lack of choices in level build

Berny · « **Reply #515 on:** October 26, 2003, 03:44:00 AM »

Thanks for the link Molobert. There is SOOO much to unlock in this game!

I had NO idea! I would have liked Toadsworth instead of Toadette but hey I'm not complaining. Battle arenas look interesting. One looks like the Block Fort from MK64. One's a Gamecube and I hope that when you drive to the edge of the Cube, it turns and you drive on the next side. That would be so much fun. It'd be really challenging too especially if the shells and stuff could only go along once surface and then fly off into oblivion.

I don't appreciate sarcasm...

You're acting like a spoiled little kid on Christmas; you whine because you didn't get everything you wanted. If you don't like what's given you, you can either not buy the game, or you can quit the jab and get it anyway...

Hey, Bill! You should put that in your sig.

wow.....that was speedy....BILL IS ALSO THE FASTEST NINTENDO FAN HERE!

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #519 on:** October 26, 2003, 04:59:33 AM »

Just for you KnowsNothing...

I would just like to add that the fact that there "are oh so few battle stages," is really overshadowed by the number of unlockables in the game...Of course, you'll probably just say, "Not enough unlockables!," even though this is the first Mario Kart game to have them...

KnowsNothing · « **Reply #520 on:** October 26, 2003, 05:23:07 AM »

You don't have to have that as your sig. It's just that you have quotes from people as sigs, and it seemed like a great way to make Nintendo (the forum user) angry.

About unlockables, Bill's exactly right. It's better than nothing, no?

Berny · « **Reply #521 on:** October 26, 2003, 05:28:44 AM »

Yeah, I tend to obsess over unlockables. That's why I had such a great time with SSBM. SOOOO much to unlock. I hope the same goes for MK. Looks like there's plenty though. I want this game so bad. Is the bonus preorder thing still going on?

Hostile Creation · « **Reply #522 on:** October 26, 2003, 12:01:59 PM »

Like unlockables? I don't know if it's your thing, but I strongly suggest Kirby Air Ride. I'm trying to get the word around about its goodness. It exceeded my expectations by much, and that's considering I already had high hopes. Anyway, it's made by HAL, the same people that made SSB, SSBM, and every other Kirby games. . . there's a lot to unlock, and the system they have for getting it all done is very cool.

I'm glad they've got some stuff in MK, too. I was getting worried

Berny · « **Reply #523 on:** October 26, 2003, 01:42:09 PM »

Kirby's made by HAL! I completely forgot! Jeez! I can't afford all this Nintendo goodness.

Nintendo · « **Reply #524 on:** October 26, 2003, 02:27:52 PM »

Hehe, of course I'm whining. It's because it's so ridiculously simple for them to have added 10 more maps. My buds and me have been playing Mario Kart 64 regularly for 6 years now and would've appreciated some more choices other than some levels that look exactly the same as their predecessors. Yes we play other games incase you're wondering, but Mario Kart remains a favorite. Maybe we'll love the new multiplayer modes so much there's nothing to mind, but all I'm doing is giving some critique. You're not exactly bringing the life into the topic by claiming unlockables make up for an expansion content flaw, they don't! They could've added Sonic and big pink dancing flowers everywhere in the game for all I care, and I still would've wondered why I can't choose more multiplayer battle levels. Again, although Bill ignores it and I'm curious why it doesn't matter to him to have some actual choices? I've already made it clear I will love this game and play it to death... Heck, I've invited 10 friends to come and play it with me to deep into the night when it's released on Friday the 14th. Gamenights only happens a few times a year nowadays, so yes that's special.

PS: Anyone who says something is better than nothing might be grateful for what they will get, but also unbelievably ignorant to the fact that games are supposed to evolve by expanding their fun and not adding crappy gimmicks.
