Your idea for unique specials will only break the game. The unique items in Double Dash!! sucked because they weren't balanced. It's only going to get worse if a greater number of specials needs to be implemented. Leave that garbage in the GameCube era.

It worked in Double Dash!! because the game offered many mechanics to split the field, it didn't break at all due to the items. MK8 and especially Deluxe doesn't offer deep mechanics. It comes down to clean lines and items. As soon as they change it back to being more varied (which they won't because they love their easy family-friendliness) specials won't make a huge difference as they haven't in the past. The unbalanced special items are nothing compared to how the straight-forward-MK8 forces you to use items in a certain way to make you finish in the top 3 all the time.
