To all you Mario Kart fans out there, are you aware of the Mario Kart leaks? Like the datamine for Mario Kart Tour, the prefix and music leak for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe - Booster Course Pass

To all you Mario Kart fans out there, are you aware of the Mario Kart leaks? Like the datamine for Mario Kart Tour, the prefix and music leak for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe - Booster Course Pass
Not at all as I already lost my hype to follow the next tracks added.
My hype is on other games currently.
Here are the leaked courses that were found through music files via datamine:
Wave 3:
Tour London Loop
DS Peach Gardens
GBA Boo Lake/Broken Pier
3DS Rock Rock Mountain
Tour Berlin Byways
GCN Waluigi Stadium
Tour Merry Mountain
3DS Rainbow Road
Wave 4:
Tour Amsterdam Drift
Tour Singapore Speedway
Tour Los Angeles Laps
Here are the leaked courses that were found through datamine:
N64 Luigi Raceway (Officially announced and returned in Mario Kart Tour)
GBA Luigi Circuit
GBA Yoshi Desert
GCN Mushroom Bridge
GCN Daisy Cruiser (Returned in Mario Kart Tour)
GCN Waluigi Stadium
GCN DK Mountain
Wii Toad Factory
FlowerRingMobYI (Yoshi's Island Course)
Bathroom-themed Course
And others
That is all for the Mario Kart Leaks

Apparently Tour dataminers have been able to determine a few more tracks headed to that game based on the way course IDs are organized within the files, which is apparently alphabetical. So we have evidence of GBA Boo Lake coming over GBA Broken Pier because the way the tracks are ordered in the files only offers room for the latter and not the former. The course IDs aren't static - for instance, SNES Ghost Valley 3 was previously datamined but currently lacks an ID slot - but it's a good signal of what to expect in Wave 3.
Oh, and to elaborate on Tour's datamines:
* GBA Bowser Castle 4 still seems likely, as a file originally titled PortalPropellerAgbbc was not used for Bowser Castle 3. Granted, it could be for an RMX Bowser's Castle instead
* GCN Mushroom Bridge's objects could also be for GCN Mushroom City - or we might be getting both[/spoiler] * DS Mario Circuit's Fire Piranha Plants were datamined * Wii Toad's Factory was not datamined. Conveyors are in the game, but its remaining track objects, like the crushers and tractors, are nowhere to be found. * Wii Dry Dry Ruins was datamined. * The 2 Wuhu island tracks were datamined. * SNES Ghost Valley 3, as previously mentioned, was datamined - it had an environmental file added to the game briefly during the Wario vs. Waluigi Tour * The ordering of course IDs indicates SNES Koopa Beach 1 is coming * Mob tracks are Tour's original courses. We need 3 more cities in 8 Deluxe to fill out the Booster Course Pass slots. and Mobat (Athens), Mobmd (Madrid), and Mobor (Orlando?) have the corresponding objects, while Cairo has been teased since launch based on the presence of the pyramids but remains absent * Additionally, there are several other Mob tracks like Mobdk and Mobnu, though it's unclear if these slots are possibly battle courses, and some might not have unique objects - Sky-High Sundae didn't have any and is Mobib in the files, which wasn't previously discovered as far as I know * Several courses already in 8 Deluxe have been confirmed through ID order or datamining, namely SNES Donut Plains 3, Wii Grumble Volcano, 3DS Music Park, and 3DS DK Jungle. * There are also a handful of additional tracks that wouldn't require unique course objects from Tour to be included, and so far, GBA Snow Land and DS Peach Gardens have been added to 8 Deluxe while falling into this camp. There's a chance we could see other tracks like N64 Wario Stadium, GBA Riverside Park or DS Desert Hills (its corresponding objects will be in the game for Grumble Volcano and Dry Dry Ruins) as a result.
[spoiler]* Lastly, in addition to Tour having all of 7's retros, it seems like it is set to receive every DS retro as well. It already has 10, with GBA Luigi Circuit being datamined, GCN Mushroom Bridge seemingly being datamined, and GBA Peach Circuit and GCN Luigi Circuit not requiring any unique objects. N64 Moo Moo Farm and N64 Banshee Boardwalk are the only exceptions to this, but I'm not sure if background cows would need to be programmed in as a unique object for the former, and for the latter, I think it'd just take scripting for the Cheep Cheep/Chomp and the removal of the weird cooler/coffin thing the bats flew out of for it to be a sensible inclusion. I can definitely see both being added.
While you can kind of do it yourself with Vs. mode, I miss All Cup Tour. It's a cup only present in Double Dash where you start with Luigi Circuit and end with Rainbow Road but the 14 tracks in between are completely in random order.
Would be epic if you could have a 96 track random cup (or even more if Nintendo chooses to do more DLC after wave 6 is released)..
Here are my predictions for Wave 4-6 of the Booster Course Pass:
Note: Since the whole of Wave 3 got leaked via datamine, there is no point in making predictions for Wave 3. However, between GBA Boo Lake and GBA Broken Pier, I prefer GBA Broken Pier
Wave 4:
Fruit Cup: Tour Amsterdam Drift, Wii Toad's Factory, DS Airship Fortress and Yoshi's Island (FlowerRingMobYI)
Boomerang Cup: Tour Singapore Speedway, GCN DK Mountain, GBA Luigi Circut and Tour Los Angeles Laps
Wave 5:
Feather Cup: New Tour Course, Wii Koopa Cape, GBA Sunset Wilds and New Tour Course
Cherry Cup: Tour Bangkok Rush, GCN Daisy Cruiser, SNES Vanilla Lake 1 and Brand New Course
Wave 6:
Acorn Cup: Tour Vancouver Velocity, Wii Maple Treeway, Brand New Course and Bathroom-Themed Course
Spiny Cup: New Tour Course, GCN Dino Dino Jungle, Brand New Course and Wii Rainbow Road
@StarPoint Yeah, I found getting the reward very challenging as I always had big difficulty with Mario Circuit and Dino Dino Jungle but the random nature of the cup made replayability a lot of fun.
It'll be interesting to see if similar difficulty crops up for me when Dino Dino Jungle comes to MK8 Deluxe given Coconut Mall's billboard pretty much confirms the track's reappearance (I know it returned in MK7 though I didn't play that game as much as the others).
@WaterKirby1964
SNES: Hardly touched this one but I really like Mario Circuit 2's remade version
N64: Koopa Troopa Beach
Super Circuit: Also barely touched this one but I dig Cheese Land and Bowser Castle 3's remakes
Double Dash: Daisy Cruiser or Wario Colosseum
DS: Rainbow Road
Wii: DK Summit
3DS: Maka Wuhu
Wii U: Big Blue
Tour: Ninja Hideaway
