  2. My retro track predictions.

    Shell cup:
    DS: Figure 8-Circuit
    3DS: Daisy Hills
    Wii U: Sweet Sweey Canyon
    Wii: Toad's Factory

    Banana cup:
    3DS: Shy Guy Bazaar
    SNES: Vanilla Lake 2
    Tour: Piranha Plant Pipeline
    Wii U: Cloudtop Cruise

    Leaf Cup:
    Wii: Dry Dry Ruins
    SNES: Mario Circuit 4
    Wii U: Twisted Mansion
    N64: Wario Stadium

    Lightning cup:
    GCN: Mushroom City
    Wii U: Sunshine Airport
    Wii: Bowser's Castle
    GBA: Rainbow Road

    Feel free to disagree but, I know y'all want more fan favorite tracks, but I obviously chose first time retros not counting Tour. Amd I know some tracks may not fit in that cup. Some tracks I chose over others like Wii Bowser's Castle, its technically more of a fan favorite than DS's or GCN's. N64 Wario Stadium and GCN Wario Colosseum might make Nintendo not add both in one game.

  3. After all this Switch 2 stuff, I want to see a ranking of every Mario Kart Gimmick, you know, like Double Dash, having two players in a kart, or anti-gravity. But I wanna wait until Mario Kart 9 comes out. Just so it's fair for the ranking.

  4. I think they should remaster all those tracks that never appeared in a main Mario Kart game (not counting Tour). Here are my first two cups:

    Shell Cup:

    – DS Figure-8 Circuit
    – 3DS Daisy Hills
    – WiiU Sweet Sweet Canyon
    – Wii Toad's Factory

    Banana Cup:

    – GBA Lakeside Park
    – WiiU Toad Harbor
    – SNES Ghost Valley 3
    – 3DS Shy Guy Bazaar

    Unnamed Cup:

    – 3DS Wuhu Loop
    – Wii Mario Circuit
    – WiiU Sunshine Airport
    – GCN Mushroom City

    Unnamed Cup:

    – SNES Vanilla Lake 2
    – 3DS Wario's Shipyard
    – GBA Bowser Castle 4
    – WiiU Big Blue

    Leaf Cup:

    – Wii Dry Dry Ruins
    – GBA Cheep Cheep Island
    – N64 Wario Stadium
    – 3DS Maka Wuhu

    Lightning Cup:

    – WiiU Electrodrome
    – GCN Wario Colosseum
    – 3DS Bowser's Castle
    – DS Rainbow Road

    I just did this for fun, if we had more cups in MK8DX then I'm pretty sure this next mario kart game will have too (or at least it should if it wants to beat 8DX)

  5. I know no one really cares but here’s my opinion and changes I would make to each of these:

    Shell cup is a very good selection. I would switch the order of Yoshi falls and Mario circuit but it’s still a strong choice with a similar vibe throughout without being repetitive. Good job.

    Banana cup is once again great choice. I wouldn’t make any changes.

    Leaf cup is again quite strong though I wouldn’t argue Yoshi’s island was not a homage track. Yoshi is a Mario character and the first game was Mario world two. It fits the vibe of this cup much better and i personally prefer this track.

    Lightning cup is once again a great set. I wouldn’t argue GBA rainbow road should go here as GCN rainbow road fits much better with the fan favourite theme of the Bell cup but it still works great.

    The Egg cup I disagree with on a fundamental level. I disagree with the philosophy of changing up these tracks like that but I think this would make a good selection without said massive changes (except lakeside park. You can change that one)

    Bell cup. Fantastic choices. I still advocate for the GBA and GCN switch but still. I do think it needs reorganising tho. Going Wuhu, Bowser, Wario, Rainbow. Just feels better paced.

    Great choices overall, a lot of the changes I said here are just matters of opinion and your list is equally valid and well done. Love your videos man.

  7. I think that we will get gba bowser castle 4, I know it is a basic bowser castle, however the tour version got a massive glowup. Even more than snes bowser castle 3. Because of it a lot of people thought it would be a booster course pass, but I think they were making it for the next Mario kart game.

  9. ah yes my favorite gcn course….. super bell subway honestly though unless we see huge changes in courses with remakes i dont want ANY courses touched from 8deluxe id rather have all courses not already made in 8D to have a chance

  10. Honestly, this may be a bit of a hot take, but i don't think we need any mk8 tracks in the next game. we've been playing those tracks for so long now, and even with a new game, mk8 is also playable on the switch 2, so it's not like those tracks are being left behind. I wouldn't say any of mk8's tracks are in major need of tweaks, and those slots could be taken up by other tracks in more dire need of touch ups and revivals.

  11. Based on what we've seen, I think we could get a Mario Kart with NO retro tracks.
    MK8D was a celebration of the franchise.
    And while it would be nice to see the franchise get bigger and bigger each and every time.
    I get the feeling this game will try to "reinvent the wheel" if you will.
    Retro tracks are likely too small for this new Mario Kart format anyway.
    And I think one of the new gimmicks we be alternative track layouts.
    Not like the city tracks in MK8D+BCP, where the track takes a different route each "Lap".
    But more along the lines of Donut Plains 1, Donut Plains 2 & Donut Plains 3.
    The exact same map, but a different layout.
    Only this time, the maps are huge.
