Now that the comments have slowed down? How do you think nonMario characters will play a role in future MarioKart games? There's just way too many options.

I cant see Nintendo going back to other Mario Kart games without some other nonMario characters after this especially after it apparently being sold out after only a few minutes of it being announced.

irstupid brings up a great point, I wonder if this mean games like Mario Party, golf, tennis etc. will get cross overs too. I dont see why not I see no negatives to adding more characters. It would also get rid ot that "Nintendo is milking the Mario franchise" if they add other nonMario characters, but im sure people will still find things to complain about like "Look at Nintendo whoring out all there franchises now!"

@ bolded; I would imagine the 'sold out' tag is just a placeholder, since the DLC won't be available until november (and the 2nd pack not until may next year). It wouldn't have been on sale yet. Also, it's DLC - that's digital. They can't sell out.
