Topic: Mario Kart 8 Deluxe

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)..

@Grumblevolcano That would be a nice feature. But like you said, it is possible through Vs. mode, so it's not completely impossible.

It would be cool how, like DD, you would get some ultra reward for clearing it, though

@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).

From each Mario Kart game, what is your favorite course?

@WaterKirby1964 Nice question! I'm gonna omit retro courses because I think that confuses things. Here we go:

SNES: Rainbow Road

64: DK's Jungle Parkway

Super Circuit: Sky Garden

Double Dash: DK Mountain

DS: Tick-Tock Clock

Wii: Rainbow Road

7: Rainbow Road

8: Mount Wario

@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

@WaterKirby1964
I rarely touch my Mario Kart games I have but Rainbow Road from Mario Kart 8 in the space is my favorite.

@WaterKirby1964

Double Dash!!: Waluigi Stadium
DS: Shroom Ridge
Wii: Moonview Highway
7: Rock Rock Mountain
8: Electrodrome
DLX: Sydney Sprint (could likely change in Wave 3)

@WaterKirby1964

SNES - Donut Plains 3 (though I prefer the MK8 remake)
N64 - Bowser's Castle
GBA - Snow Land
GCN - Wario Colosseum
DS - DK Pass
Wii - DK's Snowboard Cross
3DS - Wario's Galleon
8 - Big Blue
Tour (only via BCP as I don't play the mobile game) - Sydney Sprint

@WaterKirby1964 This is a very tough one for me, as there's a ton of great courses from the series, but here goes nothing.

SNES: Mario Circuit 3
64: Royal Raceway
Super Circuit: Cheep Cheep Island
Double Dash: Daisy Cruiser
DS: Peach Gardens
Wii: Coconut Mall
7: Music Park
8: Dolphin Shoals
8 (DLC): Wild Woods
Tour (via BCP): New York Minute

So what courses were leaked for Wave 3? 🤔

@TowaHerschel7 The only wave 3 courses we know of are Merry Mountain and Peach Gardens.

@MarioLover92 I'm pretty sure others were leaked by dataminers.

@TowaHerschel7 Right, I am aware of the leaks, but I'd really rather wait for an official reveal trailer. I haven't looked at any leaked courses because I don't want to be potentially spoiled for the next wave.

@TowaHerschel7 Here is the leaked Wave 3:

London Loop (from Mario Kart Tour)
Peach Gardens (from Mario Kart DS)
Boo Lake or Broken Pier (from Mario Kart Super Circuit)
Rock Rock Mountain (from Mario Kart 7)
Berlin Byways (from Mario Kart Tour)
Waluigi Stadium (from Mario Kart Double Dash)
Merry Mountain (from Mario Kart Tour)
Rainbow Road (from Mario Kart 7)

It should also be noted that this leak happened way before Peach Gardens and Merry Mountain were officially announced. So this is very likely to be legit.

Awesome choices. Here are my favorite courses from each Mario Kart game:

SNES: Rainbow Road
N64: Choco Mountain
GBA: Snow Land
GCN: Daisy Cruiser
DS: Peach Gardens
Wii: Maple Treeway
3DS: Toad Circuit
8 Deluxe: Toad Harbor
Tour: Sydney Sprint

I hope we get Mushroom City from Double Dash.

GBA Boo Lake and DS Twilight House are confirmed for Tour:

Yep... this definitely confirms the rest of Wave 3
