Just after the final DLC wave?
Time for Mario Kart 9.
Tour was 9. Apparently they’re working on “MKX” for switch 2, but it’s all just rumors with zero evidence.
Maybe.
But just know they’re not going to make Mario Kart: Amiibo Festival then wait a generation and follow it up by Mario Kart: New Horizons, where they promise you more content, but retract that promise the instant it hits the #1 unique seller for the platform and leave it with less content than Mario Kart 8.
At some point, it’s had to hit full saturation.
I didn’t even know it was still up there
Breaking News: Gamers surprised to hear anyone still plays Mario Kart 8
Speak for yourself, “gamer”, it’s the latest Mario Kart game, obviously we’re all still playing it. Have you gone back to Double Dash?
The latest one is “Mario Kart Arcade GP VR” how can you call yourself a “gamer” if you don’t have four of these machines in your living room? Smh
I just meant in the sense that it was in the top 20 games in the US. Of course its the most popular mario kart game at the time, but I had no idea people play it enough to generate a concurrent playerbase that large.
With the general lack of content beyond the initial unlocks/DLC and track packs, I wouldn’t think there was that many people playing essentially becomes a time trial game every day. Then again I play wow now so maybe I do understand.
This is to do with sales, not any concurrent active player metric. Even if it weren’t though, Mario Kart is about playing with friends locally!
