@Fizza You also have that Mario Kart is the Mario movie trailer image for the Direct on March 9th as well:

So announce that week and release the following week seems like a possibility.

Dude, absolutely pumped for the new tracks!! DK Summit and Waluigi Stadium were two of my most wanted ones, and DS Mario Circuit is gonna have an amazing music track. The new Yoshi’s Island course looks great as well. This is shaping up to be a very solid wave by the look of things.

Once this update hits, I'm going to switch from Inkling Boy (purple) to Birdo (green) as my main driver.

So:

  • Wave 1 - March 18th 2022
  • Wave 2 - August 4th 2022 (22 week gap)
  • Wave 3 - December 7th 2022 (18 week gap)
  • Wave 4 - March 9th 2023 (13 week gap)

Honestly with the gap between waves 3 and 4 being so short in comparison, it makes me think waves 5 and 6 may come in June and September respectively.

Heck yeah, the next batch of courses look great! I was kind of hoping for Daisy Cruiser to make it in, but it looks like it'll be a fun time nonetheless. DK Summit and Mario Circuit (DS) were a few of my favorites and I'm still pumped for the Yoshi's Island course! Though, I'm curious about Birdo. I'm wondering if she's included as a free update, or if you need the BCP to play as her.

Wave 4 is looking super awesome and hype! I am excited for all Wave 4 courses, but mostly Yoshi's Island, Tour Bangkok Rush and Tour Singapore Speedway. This may sound bold, but Wave 4 is looking to be the best Wave ever for the Booster Course Pass

Returning characters from previous Mario kart games? Ok. Well we've got:

Petey Piranha and Diddy Kong (Double Dash)
R.O.B. (DS)
Funky Kong (Wii)
Wiggler and Queen Bee (3DS)

It's an odd bunch of characters, unless you add potential tour characters:

Pauline
Captain Toad
Nabbit
Kamek
Dixie Kong
Chargin' Chuck
Monty Mole
Bros (Hammer, Boomerang, Fire, Ice)
King Bob-omb

I wonder if they would do additional character skins like they have for villager and inkling. Or more Mii Costumes Please

Personally I'd happily throw out all the non-Mario characters and things like the alternate Mario and Peach versions if those slots were instead used for other Mario/Kong or even Wario series characters

On second thoughts, DS Mario Circuit seems more interesting than I was initially thinking thanks to the Japan MK8 Deluxe site preview:

Also I'll clarify about my view about the increased Tour focus this wave, the disappointment isn't really about the tracks themselves but rather with only 2 waves to go it would've been nice to see more of the older tracks saved. Hopefully the NoA wave 4 trailer specifying "wave 1-6 48 courses" which wasn't in the previous trailers (just "48 courses") is a sign of a 2nd Booster Course Pass.

@Grumblevolcano I don't think that means anything else, honestly. It just means that there's gonna be 48 courses in 6 waves for the DLC. That's still a lot of courses if you ask me, and by the time the sixth wave comes out, MK8D will have twice as much courses as it originally did in 2017.

Whoa, I just noticed that the starting gate in DS Mario Circuit has part of the Nintendo DS logo on either side. Not the full logo, but inside each of those red frames on the top two corners, there's the two gray squares that look like the two screens! That was a neat touch that they added for this course.

I think DS Mario Circuit is one of the courses I’m most excited for honestly. It was really fun on DS and has an absolute masterpiece of a soundtrack, and the little snippet of music that Nintendo showed off so far was awesome. It also seems to have quite a bit more detail than the average Circuit track has had so far, so hopefully they deliver on it.

@StarPoint I agree, that was one of my favorites from Mario Kart DS, as well. This was honestly the Mario Circuit course I wanted the most for the Booster Course Pass, I was thinking they'd have the one from Mario Kart 7 instead, yet here we are! Though, I wanna save the music for when I actually play, personally. Those music remixes from the BCP are awesome and I'm sure it'll be no different.

Who thinks that Snowboard Cross will retain the shortcut / jump across the first chasm after the mini-ramps? (or will trying it just trigger Lakitu)

Hope you're having a good day.
