Impressions

First race! I've got to say, MK8 completely blew me away. I knew the anti-grav would be cool, but I was still extremely surprised at how cool it really is. It consistently runs at top fps, and the graphics and audio never ceased to amaze me. I expected a good game when I ordered this, but I really received something special. MK9 needs to have something really awesome up its sleeve to beat this.

    There's only ever been one MK per console so MK9 is likely to be on a handheld device making it hard to top MK8. I have no idea how what they could add as a feature to beat anti-gravity. Maybe a track editor?

    Interesting concept, but I feel thousands of similar user-generated tracks could ruin the originality and charm of Nintendo's. Possibly a custom kart creator (more in-depth than MK7/8's) or a practice mode, either open-world in the Mushroom Kingdom or on specific tracks?

    Open world Mario Kart! That's the ticket! Definitely have a regular Mario Kart mode where it's the same as what we've played in past Mario Karts but then have a seperate 'career' based mode where our Mii character does street racing challenges until he gains enough reputation to get into the Mushroom Kingdom grand prix. It could work!

    Definitely! Imagine speeding around Peach's Castle and being confronted by Bowser, and having to beat him in a 1v1 Grand Prix that only features Bowser's Castle tracks!

    That's such a good idea Scoff, you're a genious! It would be tons of fun to get challenged by lots of different Nintendo characters to reach different goals like a particular time in a time trial on a track or collect 10 coins in a particular time. It'd be awesome!

    Thanks! I'm not entirely sure a handheld could handle it though. I just hope the rumoured 'Fusion', be it handheld or home console, is as powerful as they say.

    By the time the next console comes out, I'd expect it to be more powerful than the Fusion. Technology advances every day. I don't think Nintendo will make one 'fusion' console as it wouldn't make business sense to put all your eggs in one basket. If no one buys the handheld/console hybrid then Nintendo would lose a lot of money. Having two separate systems means 1 can buoy the other if need be.
