On March 9th of this year, Nintendo released the fourth wave of the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Booster Course Pass. Prior waves each added eight additional racetracks, however, this update also added Birdo as a playable racer. Below Birdo, on the character select screen, five additional locked character slots have also appeared. While Nintendo has yet to officially confirm they will be adding more racers into Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, it can be heavily implied due to those locked slots. The latest episode of Frank’s Five tackles five characters that could potentially make their way to Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. This video is completely based on speculation, with nothing being a concrete announcement. These are predictions after all!

Donkey Kong Jr. – Donkey Kong Jr. [1982] (Nintendo Entertainment System)
