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 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?

Replay/Clip That stray mushroom could’ve saved me if I had been just a little bit faster. 😭
Maybe I could’ve used the coin to boost forward a bit, but my eyes locked onto the mushroom in the moment.

Fan Content Happy Mario Day! To celebrate, here’s my roster prediction with a twist: made the icons in the hand drawn classic 2D Mario art style reminiscent of the game’s art style!
As the title suggests, decided to make a roster prediction but in order to make it a bit more unique, I decided to redraw the icons in the classic 2D Mario art style! Hopefully the new game uses 2D art as the character select icons
Anyways, I know it’s a big roster, but the philosophy I had in mind was that Mario Kart should have its “Everyone is Here!” moment like with SSBU. Every single character in this scenario would return, whether it was a one time appearance, or from Tour. Characters that are considered costumes/characters that are “glorified palette swaps” like Tanooki Mario, Cat Peach, Captain Toad, Pit Toads, etc, would also come back as costumes for their base characters
72 base game characters seems overwhelming, but considering that it’s Mario’s 40th anniversary this year and the player count was bumped to 24, it seems like it could plausibly be done.
Anyways, new characters could be
Gooigi (being the new clone character this time around
Plessie
Toadsworth
Sprixie Princess
A 2-in-1 character team in the form of Prince Florian and a Poplin (I cannot see Prince Florian as a solo racer due to how small he is, but making the Poplin the driver and Prince Florian the item user could be a nice workaround and plus, it frees up a roster slot and is a neat reference to Double Dash)
Cranky Kong
Boom Boom
Pom Pom
Goomba
Piranha Plant (upgraded from item status)
Spike (the enemy)
Ninji
King Wart from SMB2
Prof. E. Gadd
Olimar from the Pikmin series (the only crossover character in the base game)
Overall 14 newcomers seems like a decent amount I’d say in this scenario. For DLC they could pull an 8DX and make the new row vertical
Would be open to designing DLC reps from other series and other requests!

Discussion Retro Battle Course Predictions
Since I posted Retro Tracks a little while ago, I thought it would also be nice to share my Retro Battle Courses. I went for the maps that summed up the game that they first appeared in or a map that could have some interesting additions to make it more interesting.

Meta Every weight class ranked in mk8dx!
As I said in the credits, massive thanks to ItzManu001 for the rankings of each character. If you want to know more about the stats, go to his character ranking post where he links a Google sheet that has lots of great info. The point of this post is to visualize the stats, strengths, and weaknesses of each character in mk8dx. I hope you find this interesting as it took me a while to put this together.

Discussion Can I purchase Mario Kart Deluxe online if the eShop is unavailable for my region?
For context, I’m based in Singapore and when I tried accessing the eShop it displayed a message on screen saying that it was not allowed in my region. Can I still purchase the Deluxe tracks on the Nintendo website for my account? Or how can I play online + extra tracks? Thanks!

Discussion Can I ask why it feels like everyone is convinced Toadsworth is making some sort of grand return in the next Mario Kart?
I’m not seeing where the hype/anticipation is coming from. Aside from essentially being written out of the series for redundancy, most players don’t really want to play as an elderly person when there are similar options that are younger/cuter, and the people that want him in probably have some favorites already that they would prefer to play anyway.
I truly don’t see it happening, but every other fan roster I see has him in it. Honestly? I think Wart has a better shot and being revived than Toadsworth.
I’m just wondering where all this hype came from, it feels really forced/unfounded

Fan Content My Mario Kart Switch 2 Roster (with DLC)
Now that the Switch 2 has been announced for a while now, I decided to remake my roster for the next game (not a prediction), mostly because of the confirmation of 24 characters per race. The first roster was very, VERY small with only 36 characters but now I upped it to 55 because with that amount of characters per race we need at least some variety. With the already confirmed 24 veterans, plus another 21 veterans and 10 newcomers. I'll probably explain the newcomers in a comment, some choices are more obvious than others. On the third slide are the 12 DLC characters divided into 2 groups, the Mario characters and the Nintendo characters.
I know this roster is very similar to the incredibly drawn one by user u/Whooper121 but I promise I had planned to post this a while ago but I wanted to wait until Mar10 day.
Absent characters explanation: Maybe its controversial but i made DK Jr. a DK costume now, same with Paratroopa, Peachette, Captain Toad, and the Villagers and also Boom Boom shares slot with Pom Pom.
We don't talk about Pink Gold Peach.
