What would you think of a Nintendo racing game?

What would you think of game that's like Smash Bros......except Mario Kartish? Characters could race in the way of transportation from their original games

Just to give an idea of what I mean,  Mario could race in a Mario Kart. Fox could race in an Arwing. Link on Epona, Samus in her Gunship, Kirby a Warpstar, Pit by flying, Captain Falcon by the Blue Falcon and ect ect.

Would you like to see something like that?

In some ways, yes, but wouldn't you think that would be an unbalanced race?  I mean, Link's Espona horse would lose almost EVERYTIME, and Fox and Captain Falcon would tie most of the time.

The idea of this kind of game has gone through my head plenty of times! But I don't think there would be a way to balance some things out so it wouldn't seem stupid, mainly Link and Epona, they're the out of place element here, everyone else would seem fine.

Well not really. They'd have to dumb things down of course in some terms. Like in Smash Bros. Are we really supposed to believe Jigglypuff can kick the crap out of Gannondorf? lol

Then certain specials could be given to certain characters to balance them out. Perhaps in Link's case he could toot some notes on his Ocarina of Time and freeze all racers for a limited period, granting himself access to pass.

I don't think it would work well since I don't see it being able to be balanced. Personally, I'm not a too big of a fan of racing games. I say stick with Mario Kart.

:lol: YES! Finally someone brings this up. This is probably the best thing Nintendo could do now. Super Smash Bros. Racing!!! Brawl lineup, more tracks, and more items.

Link doesn't have to ride Epona. I'd say a train.

Blue Falcon already is in Mario Kart.

Fox races in modified arwing racer from Command, or like James McCloud from F-Zero X.

Balence isn't an issue. Sega racing and sonic R, technically Sonic could just outrun everyone, but it doesn't happen. Same with smash bros.

Personally, I wouldn't like it mario kart style, F-Zero or Grid style would be good.

I see your point. No annoying ass items. Gotcha. What about obstacles and shortcuts? Those are fun.

I would like it in the Mario Kart style, but without many annoying items. (*coughblueshell*) Things like having a Final Smash moment while racing would be pretty badass as well.

Shortcuts are only fun first time unless there is a risk reward system like in Hot Persuit 2. You need skill to pull them off. That or do the MRC thing of off road v on road.

Items I'm not a fan of as they are to random. The inabilty to defend against them and the way it invites lazy AI programers to just make them cheat makes them more frustrating them anything else. Skill based weapons aren't so bad. Maybe a burnout risk reward system could help.

Okay, we've got tricky shortcuts and final smash attacks. Anything else?

So if Krystal was added, would her power-up or something be her telepath ability?

It would probably be her using her staff in some way. I wonder if I should make a dream list of racers?  :cool:

I can imagine it...

*takes out staff*

*starts poking racers, losing their control*

Probably should but I would be certain on which characters to add, you obviously can't have this game without Mario & Luigi. And maybe...you should think about a character from another company to add like Microsoft added Banjo in Sonic and SEGA all stars racing, you know like a Wii-exclusive character or something.

Well......it would be a Nintendo game. So the idea of excluding them is kinda madness. XD I couldn't see it without Wario, Donkey Kong or Bowser either. I could just see Wario driving in his trademark Wario Bike, Donkey Kong with Rambi and Bowser the Clown Car.

And maybe...you should think about a character from another company to add like Microsoft added Banjo in Sonic and SEGA all stars racing, you know like a Wii-exclusive character or something.

Well um......if it's a Nintendo game.....it probably won't have any other games on any other systems, meaning the game itself would be exclusive to the Wii.

It would probably be more on the lines of a super powered staff attack.

As for the originakl question, yes, I'd be very interested indeed. But as always, would sit on the fence for a little while and make up my mind if it was good enough to buy.

I'd like the idea, but I'd like it even more if it was F-Zero/Wipeout stylized.  It would make it much more fun.
