Likely because MK8D is really the first Mario Kart to have a long-lasting and populous online community, so people are going to keep coming back to it a lot more often than the older entries. We should probably also consider that pre-Switch, Nintendo were developing games for a home console and a handheld so releases felt more frequent, but just looking at Mario Kart releases it was really a 6 year gap between each entry when you split them into handheld entries and home console entries. MK8 coming out in 2014 would have put a new entry at 2020 or so, but since it was given a second life on Switch in 2017 then a 6 year gap would mean it'll be 2023+ for an actual new game. I don't know if Nintendo would really announce MK9 right on the end of the MK8D DLC's though.

I've really been enjoying the MK8 DLC. The new courses are fun, the revisited classics don't look as good as the main game, but considering they were ported from Mario Kart Tour, I understand.
If anyone is up for a MK8 Deluxe night, let me know

If anyone is up for a MK8 Deluxe night, let me know  I'd be down for it! I know @ Mr EliteL owns MK8D too, so he'd be able to join in too. I can't recall who else here owns the game or not.

I feel like weekends would be the best time to do this considering I think each of us have a different time zone, and doing it on weekdays automatically removes EL or Shira since the former will be in bed or the latter will be at work still.
