Not really. You'd have loads of characters sending power-ups your way. When I play Mario Kart, I always shoot to the front within seconds- it was bad enough on MK64 with 7 characters firing hundreds of power-ups at you. With 16 racers you'd probably get slowdowns with karters of that polygon count. You'd sacrifice graphics for more karters, so 8 at the same time is good like every other Mario Kart game.

Good point but when you talk of slowdowns I think you are looking at if the game was made for n64 with 16 characters in each race. I think GC could handle it. Look at F-Zero GC. I think the vehicles look pretty dam gd there. Two different games I know but the GC could and should be able to handle it.

What I do like about the new mario kart is the possible tactics when switching characters some characters being quicker or better at handling, I think b4 hand somthing to add tactical moves to the racing must have been added to the game. However should the game be called mario kart when you can hardly call those vehicles karts?

Yeah, it shouldn't be Mario Kart really.
Cool that Diddy Kong is in there. If only Rare hadn't been bought out we could of seen some of the best characters ever in there such as Timber the Tiger. *cough*

A game like Killer 7 uses Cel -Shading to give it a film-like feel and a spooky atmoshere. Some games use it and all that is achieved is a bland-looking game with low-res textures.

Upcoming GC Killer 7 shows how Cel-Shading should be done.

No no no. Resident Evil Zero shows how Cel-Shading should be done. And yes, I know, it isn't Cel-Shaded. That's my point. :p
