Huh, so it doesn’t charge if you hold drift and turn then go neutral?
Nah, turning more charges up the mini turbo faster
Kk, so you do it just isn’t as effective
Yeah
Soft drifting is very good for when you need a quick recovery off an awkward angle
For example, Wii Grumble Volcano
A very bumpy track with the moving platforms that, especially in the volcano, can make you go off at an awkward angle
However, holding R and turning when you land in the awkward position can get you in position to do an s-bend drift and do another right after
Soft drifting is good for getting out of awkward exits off ramps and such
Very good for tracks like the aforementioned Wii Grumble Volcano, 3DS Piranha Plant Pipeway, Bone Dry Dunes and Sweet Sweet Canyon
I’ve watched the shortcats of every track 150cc. I’ll have to practice eventually
That wasn’t a typo btw
Nah, I know who that is! Very good player
i thought that already happened
Nope, just best selling Switch game
THOUGH, there is some debate
Because Wii Sports is still #1
BUT many people are discounting it as it was essentially a tech demo
It's like saying the free game that comes with every ps5 is the best selling game on the console
TRUE
So, yes
Mario Kart 8 went from one of the Wii U's only saving grace
To the best selling Nintendo game EVER
ba dum tsssss insert laughing track
NOT MALAYSIA
new mk8 banner?
NO WAIT-
It's Mario kart 9 box art!
NOOO
malaysia circuit looks crazy
Six Months Speedway
If they add more irl locations as tracks I'm waiting for literally any city in Sweden
Especially Uppsala
That's where I'm from
IVE DONE IT
?
I have made a prediction list for the next MK's retro track selection!
What do you think lmao
My Pizza Tower parry awaits you
Anyhoo, I thought I'd do something nobody else has really done
Nintendo have got some REALLY big shoes to fill after the 96 tracks MK8D has
So if they just returned to doing 32 tracks like DS, Wii and 3DS, that's obviously gonna disappoint fans
So, instead of making 4 cups of 4 retros
My ultrakill coin awaits you
I pulled a page from Super Mario Kart's book and am predicting they will return to 5 races per cup!
Because again, you are NOT gonna have 96 tracks again, that's impossible
But 5 tracks per cup would mean a lot of content to explore!
So, what did I come up with?
This!
True
If the switch 2 is backwards compatible they already have 96 of em right there
Not seeing enough Daisy representation
B
Where SNES rr
BOTH DAISY TRACKS WERE IN MK8D!!!!
Too bad
🥱🥱
Add more
We need more
True
Add sonic
Seriously though, it would be really cool if we got a track based off Sarasaland
Using various elements and set pieces from Super Mario Land
Wait thatd be fire
Every texture is this photo
YEAH, I'm shocked they haven't used that as influence yet
Sarasaland is such an interesting place
Almost like a reinvention/ mix-up of Egypt and the Easter Islands
Maybe it’ll be as good as the best desert course
Ok guys
Calamari desert
Yeah, Wii Dry Dry Ruins
But yk how spy TF2 is in team sonic racing right?
Oh no
With the Yogscast?
Yes
And how sonic and mario are in the same universe because of alot of games
Oh noooo
Namco circut
They are so MINIMAL on retro track choices
Nuh uh
Don chan playable character again when?
YESSS
Ah, that
Because more vroom
Thing is that Nintendo are NOT going to top 96 tracks, not a chance in hell
To fuel comebacks Extreme hyperfixation
SO why don't they pull a page from SMK and have 5 races per cup again
That way, you'll have 20 retros
just use the same models and everything
Real
As a game dev myself
It's actually not that hard
Just drag and drop and fix a couple hit boxes
Thing is that while YES, you can do that, the fans are not gonna be happy
I would be
We were pissed at the BCP for a reason
when have they cared?
We were..?
Hang on, lemme rephrase that
People hated the BCP because it was just reusing content from Tour which is FINE because it's highly unlikely many MK players would have played Tour
But imagine they just did that again
How about they make
Besides, backwards compatibility would solve your problem
Evil snes rr
Switch rainbow road but it’s snes rainbow road themed
Gwen you are insane-
How about
We all know the answer
And SNES rr
But with a little remixes
You both have mere seconds left
I find it funny neither of you are bringing up that I want DS Figure-8 Circuit to return lmao
Imma be honest
Coz figure 8 circuit is fire
No excitebike arena
I also made it priority to even out game representation
The only difficulty I had was Arcade GP 2
Coz Nintendo would never do that
And add an arcade gp course
Let’s be honest comeback
Let me live in disbelief a little longer please
Here's my list:
SNES RR cup
SNES RR cup
Exitebike cup
A sweeden cup
And idk a LGBT cup that has daisy for some reason
This would be peak
(I'm not serious about the LGBT cup)
Lmaooo
Daisy based?
Very
Yipee!
I am now daisy
why is comeback writing an essay
This is NOT English class
Just thought I'd detail the game rep distribution:
SNES = 2 (Koopa Beach 1, Mario Circuit 4)
N64 = 1 (Wario Stadium)
GBA = 2 (Rainbow Road, Broken Pier)
GCN = 2 (Mushroom City, Rainbow Road)
AGP/2 = 2 (Mario Highway/Beach, Rainbow Downhill/Coaster)
DS = 2 (Figure-8 Circuit, Bowser's Castle)
Wii = 2 (Toad's Factory, Bowser's Castle)
3DS = 2 (Wuhu Island Loop, Wuhu Mountain Loop)
AGPDX = 2 (DK Jungle/Bananan Ruins, PAC-MAN Stadium/NAMCO Circuit)
Wii U = 2 (Dolphin Shoals, Electrodrome)
Tour = 1 (Piranha Plant Pipeline)
I'd try and read that but my eyes refuse to let me
Calamari desert
Where
It's been remade TWICE
Yeah coz it’s the best desert course
Where SNES rr
IT'S BEEN REMADE 3 GAMES IN A ROW-
Womp womp
How about both?
Wait that’s true
I have an idea
Just add every single course
Ever
Can’t be that hard 🥱🥱
COMEBACK WHAT IS THATA
The rat
Ohh ok
Can I be serious for a moment
Sure
If in the 1/1000 chance they choose to remake PAC-MAN Stadium/NAMCO Circuit, they are going to need an ARMY of modellers and such to remake it
Have you seen the amount of detail the track has????
One of the most visually stunning MK tracks EVER
me who thought you were gonna say something deep and introspective
LMAO
But yeah, I do recommend one change they make
REMOVE THAT UGLY ASS PAC MAN STATUE
All Courses in Mario Kart Arcade GP DX 1.18 for Arcade Systems. This video includes the 4 new courses that were added in 1.18. Timestamps for all courses can be found below, thanks for watching.
0:00 - PAC-MAN Stadium
2:34 - Namco Circuit
5:29 - Bananan Labyrinth
8:38 - DK Jungle
12:09 - Peach Castle
14:22 - Kingdom Way
17:20 - Splash Circuit
1...
LIKE LOOK AT THAT
Actually, funnily enough
Both these tracks are my picks for AGPDX reps lmao
OH MY GOD
I just thought
I haven't thought of what retro battle courses there will be lmao
If I had to choose from every game
SNES Battle Course 2
N64 Double Deck (Would've chosen Block Fort but it already exists in DS)
GBA Battle Course 4
GCN Block City
DS Tart Top
Wii Funky Stadium or Delfino Pier, I'm torn between them
3DS Honeybee Hive
Switch Dragon Palace
Tell me you wanna play on SNES Battle Course 4
Real
You wanna play on SNES Battle Course 4
Done
I wanna play on SNES battle course 4
Now what?
Git gud
-hornet
Real
Petite tiny little microscopic comeback
So small it's unfair
Comeback would have to clone himself and form a tower of comebacks so he can reach the steering wheel
Maybe that’s why comeback always wins there’s like 500 comebacks all working together to win
Comeback is so small that a pebble looks like a toyota
Æ
That’s my new personal headcanon
Some of them jump off the kart onto other peoples to mess with them
That's why I fall on SNES rr
Definitely
Comeback hitting my brakes
I am so torn on choosing a Wii battle course lmao
Wii was such a shit battle mode but the courses were PEAK
Hence why I legitimately can't decide on Funky Stadium or Delfino Pier
Hell, add in Block Plaza and I'm even more torn
That's what I was thinking, the whole mechanic would kinda get removed
Same way with MK7 and DS Palm Shore
But the problem with Funky Stadium is that it is MASSIVE
So it's rather hard to hit anyone
That's actually odd lmao
Out of my 3 candidates, only 1 of them has no problems
Block Plaza
It's not too big, plus the alleyway design taken from GCN Block City and N64 Block Fort makes for interesting plays
AND the statues and walls fall down, making it more likely for you to fall
Funky Stadium is too big, Delfino Pier's main gimmick is made redundant
But Wii Block Plaza might actually be the best Wii candidate lmao
Which does mean for GCN, I'll have to pick another choice
I'll go with Tilt-a-Kart for its unique tilting gimmick!
Sadly I'm gonna have my birthday party on the 19th
But you know what? I wish yall luck!
NOOOOO
I love freaky kart Sundays
You have 5 seconds
Nowaï
Wsg
Stop agreeing with me every time I say you'd want to get used and dominated by a tall goth girl
I thought you loved freaky kart ?
But he’s just telling the truth
I’d never want such a thing
I believe it was called "Mario Kart"
For boring people yeah
Freaky karts the freaky version
Freaky Metro
Tell them Jam
Nowaï answer the question in freaky general
Where
Schizo Gwen
THE ACADEMIC WHAT
How sad
Give it like a freaky score
UHHHHH
How can I make this abt me mwehehe
The acidemic freak back
That’s so freaky
Nowaï being a simp freaky
The fact no-one mentioned how I got Tour Piranha Plant Pipeline's name wrong goes to show how little people care about the track lmao
Literally all my mates that I sent it to never pointed it out lmao
In my defense, I really haven't got on discord much of yesterday (and today I guess)
That's totally fine! I was more so speaking in a general sense because nobody cares about Tour Piranha Plant Pipeline
This is maybe a random question but do y’all think that the original final lap fanfare is better or the mk 7 new final lap fanfare is better
When you say original, do you mean Super Mario Kart?
No the original melodie that was in snes to Wii
Ah, thing is
7's final lap fanfare is an odd one
Because it's a remix of specifically 64's final lap fanfare
You mean the same one used in (inhale) Super Mario Kart, Super Circuit, Double Dash, Arcade GP, DS, Arcade GP 2, Wii, Arcade GP DX, 8, and 8 Deluxe?
Yes
Because DAMN, Double Dash and Wii's in particular are pure adrenaline
EVEN ARCADE GP DX
I think 64's fits really well with the "old-timey" aesthetic it was going for
And 7's just added to the game's identity crisis
Mk7 feels like it's a beta of both mk Wii and mk8
I feel like 7 wanted to be MKWii for the 3DS but also wanted to be it's own thing while straight-up porting it's retro music that Wii ALREADY USED and lack so many things like VS Mode due to it's rushed development
Double dash is the most unique I think I personally
I think 7 ruined the theme
You forgot some
All of the Mario games
Which do y’all think is the best?
My fav is
Wii
Wii me to
By a landslide too
It is literally the definition of "GET THE FUCK TO THE FINISH LINE, A BLUE SHELL IS GONNA BE SHOT AT ANY SECOND"
I like double dash but it’s just a bit out of the ordinary for but not in a bad way
calamari desert on top
I like DD's a bit, real funky!
CALAMARI DESERT ON TOP FOREVER
*Kalimari
Dd is my top 2 cause the record scratches and the brass instruments strangely fit in
Truee
tour
thats not real tho
The tour fanfare is nothing
What is that meant to be
whats the REAL worst
It’s just oh it’s the last lap
might be snes tbh
NOOOO
64 gets a lot of complaint but its cool asl
Other than Tour, I'd give it tooooo
GBA
ooooh yeah
It's just kinda
Eh.
I’ll send a vid so that we can compare easily
"It's the final lap.
Yeah, go finish it."
fr
Would the eel tail alley one count to cuzz it’s technically a final lap song?
Uhhhhhh
No
That's just a final lap variation, not really a final lap fanfare
Like Big Blue
Where the final lap gets a new beat
But lemme show y'all something
Song Owned By Bandai Namco And Nintendo
This is actually a really good final lap fanfare from GP DX
Yeah it’s sound really good and kind of cartooney
Double Dash
Double dash
It's not even close lmao
we all know its 64
Which is better
Gba or ds
ds
DS
Nah
I think 64 as an experience had a lot of influence from 60s-70s real life racing
Mk8 or gpdx
8
Ooooh
thats not a question
Yes I watched an documentary about that
its jazz fusion that is the staple of racing music in Japan and the composer of 64 used that and created one of the best music in gaming
Yeye! I think 64 is just such an odd entry
It’s changed the franchise in the music way
Despite being 12th place on my list, I feel as if really has such a unique atmosphere
Look at tracks like DK's Jungle Parkway and Bowser's Castle
Hell, Frappe Snowland and Choco Mountain
It’s has a lot of athmospeheric music to yes
All these tracks just had that almost ambient atmosphere to them
But it somehow works in the chaos of MK
It really built the setting of the track
Yeye
ESPECIALLY Bowser's Castle, by far one of the scariest tracks in MK history
Up there with SNES Ghost Valley 1, 2 and 3, N64 Banshee Boardwalk and GBA Boo Lake
And Wii Bowser's Castle too
It’s even more scary when you realize that the CPU’s use bananas to take immense out of bounds shortcuts
TRUE LMAO
But that atmosphere
You're just in an abandoned castle surrounded by an endless dark void
Completely empty of all life, abandoned for years by Bowser
That’s what airship fortress tried to but tour ruined it
YEAH THAT SUCKEDDD
Well there are still thwops
I really liked the ominous vibe of DS Airship Fortress
Yeah, but that's it, nothing else beyond that, not even plant life it safe, no flowers, just hedges
I think dk mountain tried to go a bit more atmospheric instead of musical
You mean N64 DK's Jungle Parkway
I’m starting to wonder now
What is the next music style gonna be for the next Mario kart
Yes it is gonna be jazz fusion but what kind? Cuzz ds and double dash both or vastly different from mk8 dx
ALSO I really hope they’re cooking up a double dash mode at Nintendo for the next game where u drive in the double dash mode and you have special character items instead of the usual random items
And that they bring dancing when u use a star back from ds
TRUEEE I'd love if they:
- Retained the Karts from 8 Deluxe
- Brought back Wii's Bikes with minor modifications
- Balanced both with Double Dash's dual-racer mechanics
And I’ll tell something else but I gotta do something real quick so hang on
Ayo?
What?
The thing you were gonna say
Sorry uhh
I think I had 3 things on my minds
1 how are they gonna make battle mode more compelling and attractive
2 what could they add for new gameplay mechanics
3 what do u think is the best itteration of the star man theme in mk
4 what was ur track prediction for the next game?
4 forget 3
- LAST MAN STANDING, YOU WERE SO FUCKING CLOSE NINTENDO IN MK8, BUT YOU FUCKED IT UP RIGHT ON THE FINISH LINE-
- Boats because that would make water-based tracks (I.E. AGP Mario Beach/Highway, Wii U Dolphin Shoals and SNES Koopa Beach 1 a lot more open and interesting)
- Wii again, it just has so much impact
Continuing on the battle mode question
What new game modes could they add?
I read the predictions and
I’m not intereley sure
Yeah, the Arcade GP tracks are a stretch
But I mean
They've literally ran out of choices
Again, 64 is on ONE TRACK
Here are the things I find strange:
Banana ruins as a last banana cup track? Not rainbow road gba?
5 tracks? I don’t know why? Could u explain?
And where is dry dry ruins 
And I like the gpdx idea
btw my fav track of all time is dry dry ruins
- Kinda harkening back to 3DS DK Jungle being MK8's final track as well as SNES Rainbow Road being a middle-of-the-cup track,
- Nintendo are NOT gonna make 96 courses again for this game, so the returning 5 race structure from SMK and GBA could make it's return to make the total track count potentially 60!
kalamari desert
And 3) Dry Dry Ruins was literally just remade in Tour, very low chance they'll remake it in 9
best desert cpirse
B-b-but Yoshi sphinx and you don’t have a dessert track in your selection
so thats why we need kalamari desert
youre missing a train course too
we need a train course
It has been in 3 games in a row
BUT the best one wasn’t done justice
SUPER BELL SUBWAY MUCH BETTER THAN A TRAIN
They may continue like Tour never happened
make it 4
KALAMARI DESERT IS BETTER FIGHT MEEEE
Like
Lakeside park and gba bowser castle 4 THINK ABOUT THE MASSACRES
I dunno, that's up to them
But if you're asking me
They are DEFINITELY counting Tour as a mainline game
FUCK
Welp Lets salute the lost tracks
You never know what they could pull
Just aaaa
Aaa
NAH THE MUSIC SLAPS HARDER
AND THERE ARE MORE TRAINS
Kay night
THOSE ARE SUBWAYS NOT TRAINS
I traded it in
I was a moron
And im still one
But im smarter
Therefore
I got it plus the booster pass like 2 weeks later
LMAO niceee
DS Desert Hills is a good track
And people who say it isn't just hate it for the winding section
Me who's never played it
Have you played Wii
Nope
True
Huh
I haven't played 64 ds and wii
Basically, it's if the SMB3 desert stages was a track
Using pyramids and architecture reminiscent of those seen in SMB3's desert world with the most obvious nod being the debut of the Angry Sun
Who will spit leaping fire balls (that were changed to Fire Snakes in Wii's rendition of the track reused from Grumble Volcano) onto the track
It's a really decent desert track
I do like how the twisting turns allow for you to get a good grip of desert terrain
Single race with Bowser in Desert Hills. [1080 HD] {60 FPS}
It’s also very fun to just neglect the track and turn on creative mode and jump over the track
That's such a good shortcut too lmao
Using a mushroom and hopping on the first dune allows you to skip a corner
Unfortunately, this track is rather disliked for the aforementioned twisting turn section
That’s just a skill issue
Heavyweight vehicles/characters such as Bowser + Tyrant, DK + Rambi Rider and Wario + Brute will suffer a bit due to the tough impact of the sand
Along the whole community
Yeah, should've just done what I did
And play as Dry Bones-
Seriously though, this track is Dry Bone's race to win
Dessert hills could go hard with the new supper bounce glitch
True
Though, I should give honourable mentions to Wii on that matter for having one of the oddest glitch shortcuts in MK history
Desert Hills has many shortcuts and glitches but this one is truly one of a kind.
More Mario Kart Shortcut videos ► https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL_zwk0xfmiPCmIWJJb9Ddn58nUJgOG_G1
UPDATE (5/30): I've been informed that JadenMKW was the original discoverer of this amazing glitch and created the first tutorial for it back in January 20...
As Troy explains, CTGP-R banned this shortcut and removed it from the game via modding
Because of how extremely overpowered it is if it gets abused
Because 12th place could snag a 12th place item (I.E. Shock, Golden Mushroom, Star or Bullet Bill) and suddenly glitch into 1st place with said item
Not very fun, as you could guess
Favourite and least favourite tracks in MK games
The hardest ones to decide on were Wii and 7
64 rainbow road is a hot take
4 minutes
Also the fact that it kinda does
Nothing
It's just here
Very long, drawn out track
Tiny petite little comeback has a tiny petite little attention span…
Yeah but it’s cool
Yeahhhh butttt
I dunno, I feel like all the other tracks have a lot of stuff going for them
It’s a gauntlet to get through
All Rainbow Road has is that it's the final track of the game
Yep, I love Wii Koopa Cape
koopa cape is good but it’s not that good 😭😭
It has so much personality to it
And the idea of a water-slide based track is amazing
It's just a really fun track!
That was murdered in 7 and Tour
FINALLY CHOCO MOUNTAIN ENJOYER
YESSS
I was actually fairly stumped with 64
Because they're either too simple or too large to enjoy
Like, they're enjoyable, yes, but they don't really leave a lasting impression
Until Choco Mountain rolls around
Choco mountain music got me like:
I can’t post gifs?
Huh?
Still
Not in general, tho
That's where the two of em have been sending gifs
Nah, they're all blackened out
Weird
No one questioning my MKDS choices makes me happy
i haven't played mkds so I can't say
Oh yeah lmao
im just confused why kalamari desert isn’t first on every possible game
LMAO if I had to give honourable mentions, N64 Kalimari Desert for MK7 would get a mention
I just really like it's 7 iteration
So soothing, nostalgic and calm
But N64 Koopa Troopa Beach is such a good retro
I don't think I've ever said it before, but I'm a sucker for beach tracks
SNES Koopa Beach 2 from MKDS, N64 Koopa Troopa Beach from MK7, Wii Koopa Cape in it's original form
I'm even a fan of DS Cheep Cheep Beach and GCN Peach Beach
Everyone talks about how odd the Thundercloud item is
Nobody talks about how it was an Arcade GP item
WAIT
WHY IS SKY HIGH SUNDAY WORST
That’s like my favourite 😍
ITS ABSOLUTE FIRE
I WANT TO SET IT ON FIRE AND WATCH IT MELT INTO OBLIVION
WHATTTTT
But wii rainbow road out plays them all
Agreed
I think I can comfortably say that Big Blue is the best track in MK history
It just does everything right
Everything you would want in an MK track is right here
Ok so question
Shoot
i'll join vc after this race
I just gotta get a drink!
joining in just a sec
How many races will there be
16
16!
We know the amount?
Maybe Gwen should be host lmao
Yeah comeback you know we gotta move people into the decks right 😭
@neon quest
They’re prob getting a drink
Im bada out Mario the kart
Would that even work?
He's destroying two Americans in mk
I'm watching him rn
UHH HI HELLO MY DISCORD CRASHED
LMAO
SNES RR HA
NOOOOO
My Mac is restarting coz it needs to update
If I’m late I will shoot myself
Ok! Be there ASAP!
Will pass on this one, soz folks
Little announcement guys cb or onii had prob said I’m having horrific technical difficulties so I can’t make it to the event, but hope everyone has an awesome time!
Lets a fucking go
Aww man I wanted to brutally murder you
Good luck with what ur doing
Gwen I do better than you like 80% of the time in mk
Im gonna throw red shells at ya
Okay I added comeback for one of the hosts. How do I join??
Just at friends
Join vc!
Okay thank you!
You will see me highlighted in the Friends and Opponents section!
SHUT
Be happy
You’ll have more chance of not becoming 12th
I CAME 2ND
Not first
I bet not this time
Cumback
He came on my back from behind-
He wiped me from behind?!
- alec 18 may Fortnite Grim gate
who won MK?

#⌯⌲・server-alerts
Wdym
I saw you playing acnh
Ohhh I left my switch open lmao
oh
Like it was on acnh I just put it to sleep mode
It says you're offline if it's in sleep mode
I turned it on occasionally to check smth so idk
That’s my fav wym
No it's not lmao
Kinda realised that DS Yoshi Falls is a better track
Because the aesthetics are really nice
I just like Yoshi Falls because of my years with MKWii
Truee, the jump ramps made it so much better
idk why, but I wash never brave enough to drive over the water.
Uhh, just gonna tell you right now
The 2nd waterfall is useless lmao
The 1st is a good risk and reward feature where being risky can make you go ahead into the pack, but you miss items and might get pushed off
The 3rd is similar but item boxes are falling down the water
The 2nd is useless
Not even as a shortcut
I never got any boxes at the 3rd, I always messed that up
Best advice I can give for it is to drift on it but turn the opposite direction while you do
You'll be less effected by the water current
really!?
Yeah!
dang, should have joined the server much earlier, here are so much infos I never knew about.
Yeah, a lot of talented people here!
one of them right in front of me
Hehehehe
But yeah, DS Yoshi Falls is still a pretty meh track
There's a reason Yoshi didn't get a new track until Tour in 2023
omg, right ... just remakes over and over
Yeah, there is the odd exception with Yoshi Park 1 and 2 from Arcade GP 2, however
they don't really count to the mainline ( in my opinion )
Yeah, the Arcade games are super weird
I REALLY want some representation in the next game because they have basically ran out of choices lmao
yeah, most of the tracks ever extisted are now here, except for the fan fav's of course
Yeahh, Tour and the BCP have basically put them into a gridlock
They have very minimum choices left
Because MK7 got wiped out ALMOST completely
just the Wuhu tracks left, right
Yep
they could have been remaked actually
They were actually found in MKT's code after a datamine happened, but were presumably cut due to limitations of Tour's game engine
bro, you learned the lore of Mariokart to 110%
Basically lmao
I just really really really REALLY want Arcade GP rep
Because it is so due
Hell, I even made a prediction I'm still working on
when I hear prediction, damn I don't like it... but when you say prediction it feels different
and this is for the new mk , right ... not bad, I couldn't do it better
Yeah, thing is I did something I don't think anyone else has done before
Simply put, Nintendo are NOT gonna make 96 retro tracks again
Not a chance in hell, that would take more than a decade
So, to compensate
How about they return to SMK and Super Circuit and have 5 races per cup
Uh huh
It reminds me of my 2 fav mariokart courses from 8
Yeah, again, last time it happened was SC
Excitebike arena and sky high sundae
THEY'RE OVAL-
They’re awesome
Almost as good as the best mariokart course to ever exist
On top of being the best desert courses
kalamari desert
Nintendo didn't even managed to spell sunday correctly
KALIMARI DESERT WAS ONLY GOOD IN 7 AND NOWHEN ELSE-
it's not that bad
Like, it's an alright track, really cool seeing it return for 7
But seeing it again and again and again 3 games in a row is ridiculous
but the tour and 8 deluxe version ... why are we driving on the track of the fucking TRAIN
Like, it's a COOL idea
But they look kinda bad aesthetically
It is cool, though, don't get me wrong
Driving on the train track is a fun idea
But I think it's that retro track fatigue
yup
Again, THREE GAMES IN A ROW
WHILE WII TOAD'S FACTORY HAS NEVER SEEN THE LIGHT OF DAY AGAIN
SINCE 2008-
I still here the music in my ear ... literally I'm just playing it.
Toad's Factory?
yeah, not on an instrument if you think that
Oh lmao
I can't play music ( not good , i tried )
Nah, I can't either lmao
but Luigi/Mario Circuit from Wii, I can play that a bit
Oh nice
I really like both tracks lmao
Luigi Circuit is a great beginner track and Mario Circuit is a neat follow-up
some people say Luigi Circuit is too boring, but it's one of my fav's
I really like it! It's also great in the aspect of Wii being the first game with bikes
The large turns allow for you to get a hold of how bikes work
it was perfect... but the bikes were broken af
literally what I wanted to say
Karts can make wheely too
KALAMARI DESERT WAS PHENONEMAL IN EVERY SINGLE GAME
BEST OF EVERY ONE
BEST OF EVERY SINGLE COURSE
Hear me out: what if MK8's quads were able to wheelie?
NUH UH
?
Well, put simply, there's some kart body parts that could be their very own vehicle class
Remember the Steel Diver from MK8?
A really cool submarine based off the game series of the same name
oh, this one, yeah
What if we got a Submarine class
Vehicles that get various stat boosts changes underwater more powerful than the average water stat changes as well as MK7's diving boost
yeah maybe, but I never hear from them
Yeah, it's kinda rare to see them get recommended on YouTube and such
You'd have to manually search em up
I do see new MK item concepts which are fun as hell
Someone came up with the idea for the "Special Crown"
That crown icon from the Special Cup
what should that do?
Someone had the idea of when you get it, using it will boost all of your stats to the maximum for a limited amount of time
I really like that idea, still so weird we still don't have an item based off the crown
like the star, but even better
Kinda, just without the invincibility
Ok, so, Thundercloud
First thing I should mention is that the Thundercloud is a series first
Because it is the first (and at this point ONLY) item in MK history to have been taken from Arcade GP
WHAT!
No kidding either, it was first an Arcade GP item that was reused in Wii
In Arcade GP, it just temporarily slowed down your kart
boi thats cool
Hell yeah
But the TC itself
I'd love it to return with 1 change
When you get it in your item slot, it shouldn't start counting down immediately and giving you increased speed, acceleration and off-road immunity like it did in Wii
Instead, I want the Thundercloud to activate when it is passed to another racer
Only then does the countdown begin and the temporary stat boosts come into effect
what, if you do not share it?
If you don't share it, then it just stays above your kart
Think of this modification as turning the Thundercloud onto a "warning item"
Usually, you'd want to bump racers off track or out of the way of an item box, but when that cloud is above your head, people are gonna fear you and want to stay a million leagues away
Adding to the already present fear factor the Thundercloud has
I always got into panic when I saw someone with the TC
Exactly
As for Wii's other items, I would like to keep them both too
Again, with minor modifications
of course
For the Mega Mushroom, I think 1) certain strong items (I.E. Bob-omb, Super Horn) should be able to knock over a Mega Mushroom user much like how the Bullet Bill and Star already do, and 2) the Mega Mushroom should be given the ability to destroy certain obstacles the Star can't (I.E. trees)
And for the POW Block, honestly, keep it the same lmao
It was a really good item
EXCEPT with the reinstalled Double Dash double items, it should only wipe out the item in every racer's primary slot, the secondary item slot should remain untouched
omg, the double dash, i loved it
personally I want : Mariokart Triple terror ... or something like that.
Ehhh, 3 items would be HELL lmao
imagine baby park
DO IT
would be funny af
TRUE
i guess we talked about it already, but what is your favourite mk track ( mainline )
Wii U Big Blue
The PEAK of MK tracks, an absolute shining example of what a Mario Kart track should be
You got any standouts?
toads factory, luigi circuit and maple treeway
Good choices
you can not do anything wrong with wii tracks
and it has the most memorable music
TRUE
You know, the Toads factory music gives me the feeling of a disney villain, just a little bit
How Toad's Factory hasn't been remade ONCE is beyond me
Tour's in such a weird position
Because the only track it has that hasn't been remade/ported is Piranha Plant Pipeline
As much as I enjoy Toad's factory as much as the next person it's pretty much just a square
Also some of the tour courses go crazy
but it does not feel like a square while you race on it
You know what's worse
It's the same shape as SNES Rainbow Road
LMAO
TRUE
Shoutouts to Yoshi's Island and Squeaky Clean Sprint
Peak
Those are MK8 DX originals
i thought they were from tour
Y E S
thats what i am talking about
Explain
Very simple
Wave 6 reveal
Piranha Plant Cove
In-game, it's stated as a new track
But in the reveal trailer, it's labelled as a Tour track
I know PPC is a tour course.
Even Nintendo wants to forget about tour
Trust me I've played it
But no where has Yoshi's Island nor Squeaky clean sprint EVER appeared in Tour
I'm sorry, all the tracks in the BCP considered "new" are just Tour tracks that were put into MK8D before Tour as a marketing strategy
does not matter at this point, i guess
did the marketing work though?
MK8D is Nintendo's best selling game ever
yeah ,but the most people bought it earlier than BCP-wave-6
And a third booster course pass
btw, do you guys think the Switch can make 2nd place in sellings
True lmao
Well, thing is
I think it could make 1st
They may or may not have just killed Switch sales with that announcement
Unless they do what Madz did and drop their prices
the switch sales went up after the announcement
1st? PS2 is a strong enemy
THEY DID????
It's close
Yeah by like 23%
DAMN
Ok fine I'll give you Yoshi Island but Squeaky clean was an 8DX original. It released first on 8DX then shown in Tour. I was half right and half wrong.
how much left ( ca. )
I think it's under 20 million units now
To over take
I THINK
we all should buy some switches
i already own like 34
...why
animal crossing etc. ?
Vacation tour was in August while Feather cup was in July. Explain that
I also like collecting expensive things, but these are only nintendo colsoles
I just still think they made the model, put it into MK8D, then put it into Tour afterwards to make it seem like a big deal
You don't wanna know how many Pokémon cards I have...
tf
But they put it in MK8DX first then Tour therefore Squeaky clean sprint is indeed a MK8DX original.
total amount of money spent ?
