I doubt we will get any more other than snake and sonic maybe returning. Just because Nintendo adds 1 or 2 third party character doesn't you should expect more. Sakuri even said that megaman is a very special case.

Don't give up hope! Adding an extra third party character is an incredible publicity stunt. It would help out Smash Bros 4 and Nintendo themselves a lot. I don't think they'll go crazy with additions like you say, but Namco Bandai is working with them on this one, so that has to lead to something. Yeah, Sakurai said that doesn't mean Namco receives special privileges, but uh......HOPE! I wonder if Snake and Sonic will be back. Sonic should. He signed a contract with them.

At the most I see them bringing sonic back and then maybe they add one more sonic character(Knuckles would be awesome). But I really don't see any other third parties making it in. Id be happy if they could get geno in somehow.

ZeekQuattro3916d ago

Honestly the only 3rd party characters I expect is for Sonic to return and obviously for Megaman's debut. Other than that Snake is out as I can't see Nintendo doing Konami a favor by adding him with their current lack of Wii U support.

SethoN4G3916d ago

I'd enjoy seeing Knuckles as a playable character. Right now he's just sitting by his emerald waiting for a phone call. I just depressed myself.

Masterman2803916d ago

Sorry but we're getting Sonic again, and Pac-Man.

SethoN4G3916d ago

I don't know why you're apologizing, but I agree about Sonic. Pac-Man's great, but I'd love to see Klonoa come to the series as well. No idea what half of his moves would be though.

Masterman2803916d ago

We're definitely getting one Namco character, they're helping develop the game. I said sorry because none of the character on their list, will make it.

SethoN4G3916d ago

@Masterman280, The Namco Smash Bros character has been revealed! It's I-Ninja!

Looking Ahead: The Lingering Questions About the Next Mario Kart

VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "10 years. It’s been almost 10 years since the last mainline release in the Mario Kart series. Mario Kart 8 came out for the Wii U in 2014 and became the best-selling game for the system by a sizeable margin, and later pulled the same magic trick on the Nintendo Switch under the stage name Deluxe. All in all, it's sold nearly 70 million copies over the last decade and is still selling like hot cakes to this day, so it’s no wonder Nintendo has been in no rush to replace it. However, with rumors of a new system being just around the corner, and reports a few years back that a new Mario Kart is indeed under way, it seems the era of 8 might very well be drawing to a close. It’s an exciting prospect to be sure, but after two Nintendo systems with Mario Kart 8 at their heart, a lot of questions remain about how Nintendo will choose to follow it up."

I hope they just keep building on Mario Kart 8; Add a track-creation tool, and probably open it up to more Nintendo IPs with new tracks and characters, so Metroid, Punch Out, Starfox, Animal Crossing, etc etc.

there wont be a new one until the switch 2 comes out.

nintendo needs their bangers early on
