Why? The Mario Kart series has always been known for displaying hardware power. Each entry, outside of the Wii game, and perhaps the 3DS one simply because it looked similar to that, have looked very impressive, graphically, for their time. Mario Kart 64 was amazing when it first came out, and I still love the 2D prerendered characters.....that game STILL handles the best out of all the 3D Mario Kart games, because of the sprite characters on 3D tracks.
The only entry which expressly wasn't graphically impressive for it's time, was MKWii, where they kind of just phoned it in. It barely looked better than the GC game. A Wii MK could have looked far better than that, even for non-HD hardware.
As a personal aside, I really hope the final character roster, including unlockable characters, includes Shy Guy, possibly a Magickoopa/Kamek, a Goomba would be nice, King Boo, Wart and/or Mouser would be fantastic but probably won't happen, Professor E. Gadd would be a great racer, and it would be cool to be able to race as R.O.B. again, ala the DS game.
