Just after the final DLC wave?

Time for Mario Kart 9.

4am,

Tour was 9. Apparently they’re working on “MKX” for switch 2, but it’s all just rumors with zero evidence.

superduperenigma,

Mortal Kombat X came out in 2015

magic_lobster_party,

They’re continuing the 7 ate 9 trend?

At some point, it’s had to hit full saturation.

sebinspace,

Fuck, even I bought the game, and I’ve been a simcade Forza/Gran Turismo addict for years, haven’t played MK since the N64.

It’s good. Really good.

Breaking News: Gamers surprised to hear anyone still plays Mario Kart 8

SpookyUnderwear,

I am. Played pretty hardcore between 2014 - 2016. Didn’t realize it was still going strong.

smeg,

Speak for yourself, “gamer”, it’s the latest Mario Kart game, obviously we’re all still playing it. Have you gone back to Double Dash?

PobrePerformer,

The latest one is “Mario Kart Arcade GP VR” how can you call yourself a “gamer” if you don’t have four of these machines in your living room? Smh

smeg,

I actually built my own go-kart track next to a tortoise sanctuary and a banana plantation for the true experience, casual!

CrayonRosary,

Mario Kart Arcade GP VR

Does it come with a vacuum tube to collect the vomit?

3ntranced,

I just meant in the sense that it was in the top 20 games in the US. Of course its the most popular mario kart game at the time, but I had no idea people play it enough to generate a concurrent playerbase that large.

With the general lack of content beyond the initial unlocks/DLC and track packs, I wouldn’t think there was that many people playing essentially becomes a time trial game every day. Then again I play wow now so maybe I do understand.

smeg,

This is to do with sales, not any concurrent active player metric. Even if it weren’t though, Mario Kart is about playing with friends locally!

3ntranced,

Just need to get some friends…

smeg,

Everyone’s your friend when you’ve got Mario Kart! (Then you blue shell them on the line and you’re back where you started, worth it though)

I just got into it again. I played through 7 and put it away. Begrudgingly bought 8 for the kids and decided it was the same game. Started playing with the wife because she was into it suddenly, just in time for the dlc.

they should make Mario Kart open world and marry it with Need For Speed => Mario Kart Underground.

hey, Nintendo employee who use Lemmy and read this: push this up for the big bosses around you, because man, that would be a super epic game and a worthy sequel

PieMePlenty,

Also add a subplot involving an underground crime ring stealing VCR/DVD combo units.

I wonder how many of those sales come from being bundled with a Switch. The report says it lacks digital sales and only makes a passing mention of the bundle

I think Nintendo Kart would be a nice follow-up, with stuff from all of Nintendo’s IP.

mostNONheinous,

There are at least 10 non Mario characters in game aleeady.

samus12345,
@samus12345@lemmy.world avatar

Yes, but it’s still 90% Mario. There’s a lot of new stuff they could introduce if they bring in not just new characters, but tracks, weapons, and mechanics themed on other IPs.

billiam0202,

Super Smash Kart?

samus12345,
@samus12345@lemmy.world avatar

That works. Hell, you could even get non-Nintendo characters in there! Pac-Man has already ridden karts with Mario:

If we apply Occam’s razor, yeah he was defrauding donors.

A complete game better serves the Imperium.
For the Emperor!

I’d rather wait for a game and get a great experience, than beg for a rushed game that needs 2 years of updates until it is playable.

add this to the list of games that flopped before I even knew they existed, You really do have to put down real money to market games if you want people to purchase them
