The thing I took away from this segment is an F-Zero movie would have been more interesting...



It'd kind of be like Speed Racer in my head.

It would've been nice to make a full Mario Kart movie instead of just a segment, with Bowser, Wario, Waluigi, and Daisy racing too.



Like a Wacky Races kind of movie.

People didn't appreciate Speed Racer when it came out, I don't know why you think F Zero would get any more fanfare. 



A Wacky Races movie would be pretty good. It's too bad the Scoovy Dooniverse died before it even started.

I'm just saying such a sequence had me wondering what I'd want to see in an F-Zero movie. Probably just some generic thing about Black Shadow or Deathborn caused the F-MAX series years before to shut down due to a terrorist attack then the series restarts as the F-Zero series with new rules but Captain Falcon suspects that one or both of them are going to sabotage the new series too so he enters in the hopes he can stop it before it happens.



Simple stuff.

Why did the jungle monkeys have the technology to build go-karts? Why did the karts have anti-gravity technology? Why were they driving on a rainbow? Why was that random blue turtle super powerful? I'm confused...

Need to add a Mario reference to the movie > actually working out why it belongs in the movie



Every writers meeting.



Like it's commendable that they included so many nods but it's to the point that they're there to appease viewers and not for them to add to the setting meaningfully.

I agree with you on that note. In terms of having potential to be entertaining and something I'd like to see, I'd be for it. 



Just in terms of how Nintendo views it, I'd put it in the same boat as Metroid in being something that would be cool to see adapted but probably won't due to it being deemed as not as profitable. 



Also, I'm pretty sure the Mario Kart scenes were 100% included as free advertising for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe.

>we get an F-Zero movie before we get another game in the F-Zero series

Would be hilarious

anon it's fucking Mario kart

>The future game is now a movie tie in

You wouldn't be able to do something like that until at least movie 3.

Mario Kart the Movie would've been a spinoff. There's no way they could've made a proper Kart movie with the current rules:

>no item boxes

>you can hijack karts via Crash Bandicoot

>You have to take shells from enemy karts.

>Karts are preloaded with weapons

>Bullet Bills are now rocket launchers and can reload on enemy karts

>Blueshell can target 2nd place at will

>Zero Gravity wheels can let players ride above water instead of under water.

And how else would Bowser be able to race and play fair in a kart?

One thing they could keep

>you can activate the glide anytime to take shortcuts or save yourself from falling.

The monkey's paw is curling

You know Nintendo is going to whore ALL of their franchises out after this.
