But they got in over veteran characters like Diddy Kong, Birdo, and Bowser Jr.
Anyway the free game download is a sweet deal. Nintendo really hopes this game will sell consoles and is doing all they can to make sure it does. I'm confident it will be a hit.

Also they called her Pink Gold Peach in the direct.
Which is the stupidest name ever. Thanked by: E-Man, SchAlternate, recme, Mystie, Phantom Killah, Koopaul, BullockDS

Exactly! I would rather call her Metal Peach because her official name is too much of a mouthful to say.

They should've called her Bronze Peach or Platinum Peach. Oh well.

I've never followed the development of a Mario Kart game, but do they usually reveal the whole roster before release or is there a chance of numerous veterans being unrevealed hidden characters?

Previous games have had hidden characters (the last one I kept track of was the Wii one though). This roster looks pretty complete, though. Not to say it's impossible for something else to be added, but it does look pretty packed. If they did add more secret characters, I wouldn't be opposed to 5 or 6 more (which would keep the layout symmetrical).

I know that non-Mario characters are a taboo for Mario Kart, but here's my personal top six Nintendo, but non-Mario characters I think would be wonderful racers:
Captain Falcon (Of course) Mother Brain The Postman (Legend of Zelda) Fox McCloud Gary Oak Pokey Minch Yeah, this list is nonsense.
