      I really, really want to know what they could do with Wario Colosseum if they ever were to revisit it. I always thought it was one of Double Dash's most impressive tracks. It's got a weird lap count of just 2, but it's lengthy and full of tight, precarious turns and big jumps.

    • @nickk3077
      @nickk3077 Před 3 lety +22

    Point of contention, I hate Baby Park, the version when it was first introduced. The Mario kart 8 version turned one of my least favorite tracks into one of the best just by making it a hover track, thus making slamming into each other a priority. Suddenly it’s the most intense game of bumper cars ever and I love it

    • @ThunderConker
      @ThunderConker Před 2 lety +3

      For me it's the of het wat around. Huge banana's and bowsershields were the one thing which made babypark chaotic and impossible to win everytime. It was my favorite track of alltime. The remake ruïned this for me. How to win most of the time: use speedboost at the start, take an item every turn, make the shortest turns possible (through the grass). Maybe my friends just aren't on my level, but I feel like the one thing what made babypark special was the crazy double doubledash items.

    Just a quick correction. While MK8 was the first entry to include DLC, it was not the first to feature tracks from other Nintendo properties. Not counting the arcade games, I believe MK7 has that honor with Wuhu Loop and Maka Wuhu from Wii Sports Resort. They're also two of my favorite tracks.
    My family obsessed over Wii Sports Resort. Through the Island Flyover minigame, we got to know the ins and outs of Wuhu Island pretty well. (Every medal, during every time of day). The details made it feel like a real place that we should have been able to walk or drive around. That's why I loved its inclusion in MK7. It was the same island, but I could see it all from ground level. It was also the first single lap track I saw, which was pretty mind blowing at the time.
    I really hope that at least one of those courses makes it into MK9. Heck, port Wii Sports Resort to the Switch!

    *sees #2*
    ....oh.....nevermind....you lost me...
    *sees #1*
    Okay, I'm being serious. What was the point of this list? I enjoy watching your Top 10s because they bring new ideas and opinions to the table. But here, you just slapped the two most-popular and, IMO, most overrated courses on the top.
    Not to mention, you contradicted yourself during #2. "Mario Kart is supposed to be easy to pick up and play....and SNES doesn't have this issue." That's only true in length. This course is a massive difficulty spike compared to the rest of Super Mario Kart, as the game is extremely slippery, the majority of the course is very narrow, and there are absolutely no fences to help you. The average played is bound to fall off around every 15-20 seconds, and that's generous for some people.
    I've gotten extremely sick and bored of this course. It's been in 5 Mario Kart games. FIVE! (SNES, GBA, 7, 8, Tour.) I think the music to it sounds...just...bad. The modern versions are okay, but the older versions sound wany, and it always sounds like it's interluding to a real piece that doesn't exist.
    And the track design itself isn't anything original, either! Sure, the colors, Thwomps, and zero fences make it stick out from the rest of the game, but that doesn't change the fact that overhead...it's just a jank E. With other modern tracks throwing other elements to keep tracks refreshing and twist track layouts, like anti-gravity, gliding portions, cannons, underwater sections, etc., why should this course that refuses to go away keep my interest with its bare-bones design that hasn't aged well?
    And, unless you get stuck in the pack, the same can be said for Baby Park. Once you get far ahead of everyone, it's usually pretty smooth sailing, taking the drift over and over again every less-than-10 seconds. It's expecially bad on the Wii U/Switch version, where awkward lighting makes it hard to see what hit you sometimes, and the drift pattern is overall easier to do, making it feel even more boring when you're ahead of the pack.

      @@theoneandonlyjs19 I enjoy playing Mario Kart with friends. I also enjoy being able to tell what's going on over 90% of the time, feel like I have good control, feel rewarded for how I skillfully cut corners, and not feel like I'm taking the same turns each time. None of those things apply to Baby Park, none of them apply to the old versions of SNES Rainbow Road, and few of them apply to modern SNES Rainbow Road.
      A little bit of luck and Chaos in Mario Kart...I tolerate. Too much, and it's not fun. And if I'm ahead of the pack in Baby Park, the chaos is gone and it's too boring.
      But I suppose you have a point. Whatever Jirard's definition of "fun" is...it probably is foreign to me. We all find different ways to have fun, though. If that's what he finds joy in, so be it. I just wanted to deliver constructive criticism to the questionable existence of this video, while also pointing out a contradiction.

      @@theoneandonlyjs19 What? It's not for me?I've played over 250+ hours of Mario Kart 7, and not often did I feel cheated of a win due to uncontrollable circumstances. (Unless it had to do with laggy netcode making my own red shell target me. That happened too often.) I even was able to obtain 10,000 VR before just about everyone else in my friend circle that played often with me. If I made a comparison to, say, Mario Party, that's a game I feel miserable playing because of how luck-based the entire thing feels.
      In general, I think Mario Kart very often rewards the more-skilled racer. It's really only hard to gauge when players are at nearly the same skill level. Now, Mario Kart Wii on the other hand...that's a different beast. I believe items in that game are far too punishing and less avoidable, making it way less desirable to play compared to most other games in the series. But that's really the only one I have that gripe with. I've had much better experiences with DS, 7, and 8.
      I don't know why you're saying I'm telling someone that their fun is wrong; I stated that Jirard's idea of fun might be different from mine, and I'm not aiming to change that. I was merely criticizing the existence of the video for bringing few new ideas to the table. These videos *are* for me because I enjoy looking at new perspectives, especially through the lens of someone that completes games for a living...but this video did not fit into that category, so I became disappointed, upset, and critical.
