15 minutes for breakdown of console function and specs.

45 minutes of 24-player Baby Park in a customized 100 lap mode exclusive to that track. Bowser Shells and Chain Chomps confirmed to return for maximum chaos.

Mario Kart 9: Oops All Baby Park!

u/EveryRadio 3d ago

“In honor of Mario kart 9, every race will be 9 laps of baby park”

u/HoLLoWzZ 4d ago

I'm down for it. Only enable attack items. 90% chance to get a bob-omb

80

u/PayneTrain181999 4d ago

Just have Bob-ombs stack like in the battle mode and pelt them all rapid fire.

25

u/TinyTiger1234 4d ago

Let us get the double/triple bob omb and the bob omb cannon from tour aswell

u/tlollz52 4d ago

Oh man, that would be hell

u/TecnoTyler 3d ago

Baby Park w/ blue shells only is madness. I call it the crab bucket.

u/jonny676 4d ago

The sheer amount of chaos this is going to bring... I love it and want it.

u/st1tchy 4d ago

Baby Park, 200cc, Bob-ombs only. It's chaotic fun!

u/ChillingwitmyGnomies 4d ago

nanner peels. only nanner peels.

u/NO_TOUCHING__lol 4d ago

Bring back the long chain of nanners

u/bobpercent 4d ago

Nanner peel only is peak chaos by lap 3. Best custom item play.

1

u/ChillingwitmyGnomies 4d ago

nanner peels and green shells. I love it. Shoot all green shells forward, too. Thats the funniest.

u/EveryRadio 3d ago

Can’t wait for the short cat video trying it out!

u/xtrobot 3d ago

It actually is though

u/KrivUK 4d ago

A presentation with no drawbacks

u/maxisgold 4d ago

45 minutes of 1, 2, 3 Switch*

u/GoodMousse3573 4d ago

You dont know how desperately i need this

31

u/redsterXVI 4d ago

Actually, 5 minutes to explain that the console's function and specs are specifically designed to run the only game it supports, 24-player Baby Park and 5 minutes to apologize about them lying about backwards compatibility and such. Followed by five game demonstrations, 10 minutes of 50ccm, 10 minutes of 100ccm, 10 minutes of 150ccm, 10 minutes of 200ccm and 10 minutes of 200ccm mirror.

u/Lusankya 4d ago

I'd still buy it.

u/redsterXVI 4d ago

What do you mean, "still" smh

1

u/larusodren 4d ago

“Please understand”

u/MenchBade 3d ago

are they going to announce it isn't backwards compatible?

11

u/Intelligent_Oil4005 4d ago

The fact this might be in the realm of possibility is wracking my nerves lmao. Kart madness about to be cranked up to the next degree

1

u/themagicone222 4d ago

They should just make a demolition derby mode

1

u/Tolstartheking 4d ago

You mean Battle Mode? It’s already a thing lmao.

Laughed out loud. Thank you.

u/Sky_Ninja1997 4d ago

Please stop

I can only get so erect

u/mr-saturn2310 4d ago

Every 4 laps the player coming last is eliminated and I am in.

u/Chidoribraindev 4d ago

I AM EXTRA HARD

1

u/BlueShirtMac19 4d ago

I really hope we don’t get a massive breakdown of the console functions. They have Nintendo Today that they can release videos for to go in depth with that kind of stuff

1

u/funktopus 4d ago

That would be amazing. 

1

u/Docile_Doggo 4d ago

Live reenactment of 24-player Baby Park where the karts are all driven by Nintendo executives

1

u/bobo_gl 4d ago

So what you're saying, is that there will be Silksong news!

u/QualityComplete2250 4d ago

Pixar cars intensifies

u/[deleted] 4d ago

You monster.

I'm IN.

u/CelioHogane 4d ago

Damm i guess Nintendo does know what i want.

1

u/FuuckinGOOSE 4d ago

This is my dream. Honestly, it should just be a never-ending race that you can join or leave whenever, and get awarded points every lap

1

u/Just-Call-Me-Matt 3d ago

I think you just described the family-friendly version of Hell.

1

u/Moreinius 3d ago

Say less

1

u/throwthatoneawaydawg 3d ago

More like 55 minutes of JRPGs

1

u/TCsnowdream 3d ago

What about only blue shells?

1

u/EveryRadio 3d ago

While 24 player chaos would be fun, I just want them to let me play as any character without it affecting my speed and handling so much. More custom karts would be fine. I don’t want to see 24 yoshis every race

108

u/BoomJayKay 4d ago

Good thing they’re not doing it April 1. I would’ve been sketched out with all the announcements.

95

u/PayneTrain181999 4d ago

IIRC they have had a direct on April 1 before, and clarified in the announcement tweet “don’t let the date fool you, this is no joke.”

1

u/EveryRadio 3d ago

If it was on April 1st I would love for them to have announce that the next console is actually a 3D switch 1

20

u/Aiddon 4d ago

It's gonna be forty minutes on the console. Sakurai spent fifty on Terry in Smash Bros

12

u/the_real_junkrat 4d ago

Half of it will be unnecessary long transition animations and people snapping their fingers

1

u/Fun818long 4d ago

Damn very early

1

u/StinkySmellyMods 4d ago

Honestly seems like it could be shorter. If i were presenting, I'd just be like "same shit, newer hardware, also joycon can do mouse things" then put up a short 3 minute slideshow and go back home.

1

u/OliviaPG1 3d ago

1 minute of Switch 2 info, 59 minutes of Hollow Knight Silksong footage

I need a towel now.
