Why did Nintendo Enthusiast lie?

[CRode]

A long time ago Nintendo Enthusiast announced that there will be Story Mode where you'll battle on the boards against "Bowser's Minions". Who were also going to be playable characters. They were...........................................................  :boo: :koopakid: :birdo: :drybones: :hammerbro: :shyguy:  and :koopa:

Whatever happened to that? They were false. I wish I could somehow change it to be true  :-[

Shy Guy and Kamek fulfilled that role in MP9. The objective was to make them lose.

only  :mario: :luigi: each: :daisy: :wario: :waluigi: :yoshi: :birdo: :toad: :koopa: :shyguy: and Kamek/Magikoopa were playable.

Kamek and Shy Guy were the minions mentioned. Its unlikely, but other minions could have been planned, like Bowser Jr. I read about it back then and thought Red K Kid, Blue K Kid, and Green K Kid might return. They would've been perfect, as all three could ride in the vehicle with you and have Koopa Kid playable as well. I'm surprised Koopa wasn't the third minion in the final Story Mode along with Kamek and Shy Guy.
