Also SNES Super Mario kart didn't have Wario and had Koopa Troopa instead. And the other track the ghost track is completely new, as is the figure 8.
I'm thinking that this is a whole new game.

Oh yeah, I'm pretty sure this will be the best Mario Kart ever, in case anyone wanted to know.

Yeah that would be cool, something all racing games, Mario Kart or not should include.

It could be cool to have more than just the normal kart mode too. Diddy Kong Racing had hovers and planes which weren't bad.

A touch screen track editor with you being able to pick a backdrop would be cool. Even if it is as basic as draw a track loop and then the programming fills in the details.
The idea of targeting certain characters with weapons is awesome, but I can see a balancing problem. I would like to bring back alot of the weapons from the N64 game. I loved the massive Bananna peel lines you could make. I thought that was one of the best weapons in the game.

My one main gripe with Mario Kart: DD was that the track design wasn't that great. There were some really cool tracks in the higher cups but a lot of the earlier tracks seemed a little too familiar, like it wasn't really providing anything new. For this game I would like it if they really went all out with track designs and really strived to make every track memorable and unique. Same with the battle mode courses. They can include an unlockable cup of favourite old tracks but the new ones should be unique and different.
I'm also hoping to see wireless play for at least up to 8 players, preferably with one cartridge (if possible). I also would like to see a variation of battle mode where you play on the race tracks but the goal is to eliminate the other opponents. Part of the challenge is to see if you can eliminate everyone in as short a time as possible since it's on the race track. Some sort of SSBM style challenge mode would be cool too where you have to win races with specific objectives. Or maybe a stunt mode like they had in Stunt Race FX.

The earlier courses were more traditional Mario Kart, but all of them had something that made them stick out.
My favorite course was the Baby Mario/Luigi course. It was simple but it was really crazy fun.
The biggest disappointment with Mario Kart DD was the lack of battle arenas, and Battle Modes.
I hope this is corrected in the DS Mario Kart. I hope that I have a vast selection of Battle Arenas that offer different and varied strategies to win.
