You'd be forgiven for thinking Mario Kart Tour, Nintendo's mobile entry into the beloved Mario Kart franchise, would feature Luigi as a character. After all, he's been in every other Mario Kart game in the series, and he's on the splash screen you see every time you boot up the game. Plus, he's a popular character, so a game that 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:makes all its 🌼money on Gacha mechanics would certainly benefit from players to taking out their credit cards and trying theꦆir luck at unlocking him꧅.
But Nintendo apparently thinks of Luigi as a second-class ch♔aracter, sꦉince he's nowhere to be found in the game.
Luigi taking a backseat isn't entirely unheard of in the Mario franchise -- he was famously nowhere to be found in Mario 64, leading to an absurd number of hoaxes, fake guides and 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:conspiracy theories regarding his existence in the game. However, a look at which characters Nintendo chose to feature in Mario Kart Tour instead of Luigi makes his absence from the game outrig🦹ht in🔯sulting.
Among the characters that Nintendo thinks are more of a spot in the game than Luigi are the baby versions of Mario, Peach and Daisy, two alternative costumes for Mario, and 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Peachette -- a Peach/Toadette hybrid whose biggest claim to fame is inspiring fan creation Bowsette, .
Pauline and Dry Bowser also take precedence over the bro that makes up the iconic Super Mario Bros. Did Nintendo forget that Luigi is more tꩵhan just a pallet-swapped Mario?
If Mario Kart Tour continues168澳洲幸运5开奖网: its initial popularity, Nintendo will no doubt add more characters to the game, and one day the roster will hopefully include everyone's favorite (well... 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:second-favorite) skinny mustachioed character. But Luigi is a character who has had multiple solo titles, an entire year dedicated to him, and more personality than ♈the rest of the Mario Kar𝐆t Tour roster put together. If anyone deserves to be in this game, it's Luigi.
