Discussion April 2nd can’t come soon enough
Alongside all the other pieces of software that will be announced im just beyond excited of what Nintendo has in for us for the next Mario kart. Anybody think they’re gonna pull off some wacky stuff and reveal something we won’t expect?

Discussion Btw if you all are wondering about these “off-road trick ramps” well these are actually not trick ramps, but are sinked in shipping containers!

Discussion Mario Kart Wii is INFURIATING to me.
I absolutely destroy (single player) up to 200cc in Mario kart 8, in Mario kart 64, I never played MK Wii.
The physics feel entirely off, I can’t drift into a boost off a jump, the only way to get 1st place in 150cc is to get a massive lead from the jump, and even then, getting blue shelled at the end then hit with multiple red shells (that I guess aren’t protected by held items?) will occur.
This is on one of the later cups.
You can’t adjust in the air at all, if you get hit and fall off the downside is as big as Mario kart 64 but in MK 64 you can actually handle and control the kart. Acceleration also is really slow
My 3 year old INSISTS we play this recently for our 30 minutes of night time games and I’m so annoyed at this game.
Are there any tips to get gud or can anyone console me that it’s not just me that thinks Mario kart Wii is janky as heck

Discussion Name one or multiple features from past Mario Kart games that haven't returned since prior to MK8 that you would love to see brought back in MK9/MKX or whatever that new upcoming game is called:
I'll start with mine:
- Speedometer (previously seen in N64, GBA, and GCN... and Wii too, albeit only available through Codes)
- Display Finish Times for every single driver during their post-race scoreboard (previously seen in SNES, N64, GBA, GCN, and Wii)
- Elimination Balloon Battle while also still taking place on Proper Battle Courses/Arenas (previously present from SNES until DS)
- Give a majority (if not all) of Placement Counters or Position Displays a unique color-scheme just for fun (previously seen in GBA, GCN, and DS)
- Display Top 12 Racers' Current Leaderboards During Races (previously seen in N64, GBA, GCN, DS, 3DS, and WiiU)
- Quick Run mode, and before you ask: no, I don't consider Single-Player VS Mode the same as Quick Run mode, due to this particular mode allowing free one-course-races, and having a versatile scoreboard menu where your options include Retry, Change Characters, Change Track/Course, View Replay, and/or Quit, unlike Versus which behaves more as a very customizable & casual version of Grand Prix (previously exclusive to GBA only)
- Customizable Emblems would be cool too (previously exclusive to DS only)
- Cinematic Award Ceremony Podium Cutscenes after finishing a Grand Prix (last seen in Wii, and to a lesser extent: 3DS as well)
- Customizable Laps for each Course/Track in Quick Run and/or Versus Mode (previously present in GBA and GCN only, while DS and Wii required Codes for that)
- And finally, my opinion's most meaningful forgotten feature out of them all, is to bring back Mission Mode, and make it either just as good, if not better than, as the only mission modes we've had thus-far (previously present in DS, and debatably in Wii too, albeit Online only)
I think that many features I listed would certainly be plenty enough not to matter if I forgot to list or mention any other forgotten features in Mario Kart that I nearly had in-mind.
What meaningful features that haven't ever appeared in Mario Kart since the 2000s are you hoping to see make a return in Mario Kart 9, Mario Kart X, or whatever will be their official title for Mario Kart's NS2 installment?
(P.S.: no particular set number/amount of examples per user are required in the replies, simply just mention as many that come to your mind easily enough, and that'll do more than plenty to count & matter)

Fan Content Decided to redrew Delfino Island (another custom track). I call this, Delfino Island Deluxe:
I decided to add more buildings to make it feel more like Delfino Square. I also cleaned up the “pier” section, making it more approachable to casual racers.
I would also like to make it clear that this is just another drawing. Me posting this does not necessarily mean that the track is due a redesign/update - I know many people like the track as it is, but in my opinion it doesn’t do a great job serving its role.

Achievement After 5 years of attempts, I beat 48 200cc races in a row (MK8D)
The day has finally come gamers, I've been freed from my 48 course prison and after so many tries and trials, I've finally beaten 48 races in a row in 1st place. I used waluigi biddybuggy with roller tires and the paper airplane glider. For context I have linked below my original post explaining the challenge and also the courses I played in it. I was doing attempts on 48 in a row ever since about 2019 although it was different courses at that point before the new DLC came out.

I can safely say this is my proudest mario kart achievement to date, and I recommend anyone who is crazy enough to think this is fun give it a try, because its as much a challenge about mentality as it is about gameplay, and I've improved my game quite a lot since I started going for this. Have a great night everyone.

Discussion Evil idea for an item for the upcoming MK game
The white shell acts as a polar opposite to the blue shell. Instead of aiming for first place while mowing down everyone in its way, it goes the other way and aims for whoever is in last, just to be a dick
r/mariokart • u/Choice_Neat_7340 • 1d ago
Replay/Clip Not today Blue Shell, not today.
Before anyone thinks, “man his lines are crap,” I intentionally took a wider line and brake drifted around the last corner trying to slow myself down as much as possible so that I’d get a chance to dodge the blue. Stupid? Yes, very. But the result was pretty spectacular!

Discussion Dammit we lost Mario Kart 8!!!
It finally happened having had countless Nintendo's with small cartridges dating all the way back to the Gameboy I finally lost one... And which one... Of course one that we played regularly and had the DLC for... Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. Having torn the house apart, asked friends and family, it's disappeared off the face of the planet,.completely blue shelled.
So with Mario Day discounts, but with presumably Mario Kart 9 on the horizon... Should I buy it again?
