Did you ever notice the sky gets clearer after each lap? It's really cloudy on the first lap, but by the last one the sky is blue and you can see snowy mountaintops in the distance.
I can't describe what it is about Wii era music, but it just has this nostalgic sound too it. Idk if it's just because I grew up with it, but something about it just screams nostalgia
It's really the combination of all the songs feeling very full and well-mixed. As well as the distinctness with its instrument choices. Mario Kart 8 feels too Jazzy all around the board for my taste, but Wii's OST had some super great synths and bass in its tracklist.
The synths in it aren't trying to be "realistic" and are instead playing to their strengths as midi instruments. Honestly I'd love a comeback in less realistic midi instruments
I’ve been looking for this for hours but I knew it was from Mario Kart. I’ve been playing almost every Mario Kart song for the past 4 hours and now my soul can rest.
@@Quisshy Mario Kart 8 is calling... I mean, have you heard Dolphin Shoals and Big Blue? Some of the best songs in gaming history right there. Wii is still spectacular though, 8 is better in my opinion though
@@alexanderadams9058 8 is pretty good, not gonna lie. I may just be nostalgic but in my opinion MKWii just had the best songs. I mean Coconut Mall anyone?
Honestly this is underrated. I love the swing with the melody and the layed out notes after so. It feels satisfying and catchy and makes you almost bounce like the notes do. Love the sound of it, sounds nostalgic too.
MarioKart soundtracks are always very jazz fusion-influenced and I love it. I wish a real jazz fusion band would perform the older track songs that weren't live recorded like the MarioKart 8 ones were.
One-two-three-four! It's just a snowy-sounding theme! Easily a highlight in this album. It's optimistic and adventurous, with some other lingering sense that I can't put my finger on. Why did Donkey Kong have snow tracks for two games, and then never again? Was this foreshadowing Tropical Freeze?
The design of this course is really clever. The course is completely entirely downhill, with a cannon acting like a ski lift. One of my favorite parts of looking back on great games is realizing the genius in their designs.
@@Dragonlover-kz7mk The Wii in general was when Nintendo Peaked. Wii Sports, Wii Fit, Super Mario Galaxy 1 and 2, Super Smash Bros Brawl, Twilight Princess, the list goes on...
The only peak wii games were Galaxy 1, Skyward Sword, Xenoblade, Wii Sports Resort, and Twilight Princess. Everything else is overrated (this song is still a banger tho). Honestly, I think Nintendo has never been higher than right now.
Hmm, sorry, @YodakillerMusic! We think your #Wii and #MarioKartWii is a North American copy. Everywhere else, I think you'll see it's DK's Snowboard Cross.
If I could go back for just one day. If only I could go back to the days where all I had to worry about was beating my dad at mariokart and beating the next smurfs 2 boss. I had it all and it’s gone, but at least I have the memories, the nostalgia of playing angry birds on my kindle, my childhood dog, the wii and all it’s glory. It was the best.
I'll never get tired of that synthesized "One, Two, Three, Four".
same, i never noticed it when i was playing the game like 10 years ago. time flies
i never noticed it at all
@@clone3 thank you for reminding me I'm getting old...
@@Jasperr9999 bc it's Totaka who did 1, 2, 3, 4 and he's KK Slider
YEA I LISENT
This whole game’s music slaps, when I was a kid I did t realize how good it actually is
Same
Same here dude
Same, i wish i could experience this game for the first time as a kid again
yeah same i just was focusing on not falling off the track half of the time lmao
agreed, quality fucking music
I'll never stop saying the 1 2 3 4 in this song when I hear it
I saw this comment right after I said it lol
relatable
Same dude
Ur anime is for pedophiles... that's a fact
SO THATS WHAT IT SAYS!
I got a whole workout shaking the controller so much on all those bumps!
OMG SAME
The really bumpy part oh and the half pipes... Yep this one was an exercise
Can’t believe the lead composer was only 24 when he did this
dang really?
Whats his name is he still making music for Nintendo
Ok well I don’t feel so bad about my compositions now
DAaaAAAaaAaAaAAMN
@@YaBoyBilly88 Ryo Nagamatsu, he did Mario Galaxy 2 and New Mario bros Wii, he still kicks in new compositions for nintendo to this day
KK slider’s in the intro
I can’t unhear it...
0:04
One two three four
The song does kind of sound like K.K. Bubblegum
I can never stop myself from saying it
Did you ever notice the sky gets clearer after each lap? It's really cloudy on the first lap, but by the last one the sky is blue and you can see snowy mountaintops in the distance.
I actually noticed this now and I was bout to comment it but I saw urs 😅
How have I played this game as long as I’ve been alive and never noticed that?!?!?!! Thanks!
I wish they kept it in the bcp.
Nintendo wouldn’t give a damn to make those details nowadays
Kinda like GBA Sunset Wilds where the sky gets darker after each lap
Dang I had such an imagination back then...
I always would purposely go in that snow thingy that slows you down because I thought it was yogurt 🤣
don’t make me cry 😭 I remember playing this back in 2013 me and the boys would always get on mariokart
yea i always thought it was ice cream 🤣
I thought it was like this one multi coloured marshmallow I had once
So I wasn't the only who thought that?!
@@macawweb2211 yo SAME
Coconut mall
Is amazing but this track is so underrated same with toads factory and mushroom gorge
Coconut mall has the coolest harmonies, but this track is stull my favorite, cause it sounds good on piano.

Your absolutely right

A lot of Wii tracks definitely give off that “2000s future” vibe and I love it
The synths in it aren't trying to be "realistic" and are instead playing to their strengths as midi instruments. Honestly I'd love a comeback in less realistic midi instruments
it's the harmony. :)
jazz harmony and chromatic harmony can give a very "nostalgic" feel to things.
One of my ALLTIME FAVORITE tracks in the game
More like in any game
Yes and the ruined it in mk8d
I’ve been looking for this for hours but I knew it was from Mario Kart. I’ve been playing almost every Mario Kart song for the past 4 hours and now my soul can rest.
Same, I just had a weird feeling it was Mario Kart Wii specifically, no idea how.
@@ThatOneGuy-qw1xx it’s because Mario kart wii has the best music out of them all
Rip I just looked up the whole playlist and found it within minutes
@@Quisshy Mario Kart 8 is calling...
I mean, have you heard Dolphin Shoals and Big Blue? Some of the best songs in gaming history right there. Wii is still spectacular though, 8 is better in my opinion though

God I can hear that big-ass cannon shooting up the mountain
this remains mariokart's all-time best ost, coconut mall cant even compare
The Portal in this map was EVERYTHING
what portal?
@@daan9094 I assume they mean the cannon at the beginning of the map
"Wauh hou"
Where's PotatOS?
This was my childhood right here, these moments will forever last my lifetime, and hopefully many others.
you could say that again bro🥹💔
Absolutely bro ❤
My whole family would hum along with these songs as we played (especially when we were winning)
Honestly this is underrated. I love the swing with the melody and the layed out notes after so. It feels satisfying and catchy and makes you almost bounce like the notes do. Love the sound of it, sounds nostalgic too.
Im definitely gonna listen to this while skiing...
yeah me too
Outstanding composition and arrangement, really like the bass and the synths. Amazing music.
Love the music, but the map was soo hardd
It wasn't
@@user-eq5cl4up5s it was for me at the time
I loved all the halfpipes.
Thats mario kart will making the game a great game
@@StrongestInHistory yess

DK SUMMIT IS BACK, LETS GOOOOOO
One-two-three-four!
It's just a snowy-sounding theme! Easily a highlight in this album. It's optimistic and adventurous, with some other lingering sense that I can't put my finger on.
Why did Donkey Kong have snow tracks for two games, and then never again? Was this foreshadowing Tropical Freeze?
I always thought the counting was them saying wacky re bot
I thought it was R.O.B😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
The design of this course is really clever.
The course is completely entirely downhill, with a cannon acting like a ski lift.

Bro this slaps so hard
This track got to comeback in some other future Mario kart game
I am convinced this is a BCP pick
Good news for you
This is the perfect song to listen to whilst driving home in a snow storm after plowing my grandparents driveway at 8:00pm
Man the memories with this map and the bumps lmao
And going Side to side performing tricks
In my personal opinion, this is literally one of the best songs in Mario Kart Wii. It’s such a banger 😩🙌
Mario kart Wii is the best MK game. The sounds, music, characters, items, and track selection is the best in the series hands down. Amazing game 10/10
Probably the best race and the best music of this Mario Kart.
How dare you call it "DK Snowboard Cross"? DK SUMMIT FOR LIFE BABYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEE!!!!
jk btw
@@bashton1231 nah serious
He lives in UK
Snowbored cross was the world version?
Guess the UK and Australia had Dk submit
@@Starvaze its the other way around!
Banger level. Banger theme I love this one!
I’ve played Mario Kart Wii a lot of times and I absolutely love this course because of the music and because it has a cannon.
For context, in the European version, this track is called DK snowboard cross (much better than DK summit imo)
Don't tell Nintendo
this is one of those songs where no remix will ever come close to sounding as good as the og
I miss this game so much.
The intro is similar to MKWii Rainbow Road.
Let's gooo, Wii DK Summit in MK8D
We all have to agree that mario kart wii was the best mario kart game ever
Yes. Honestly, when Mario Kart Wii released, that’s when Nintendo peaked.
@@Dragonlover-kz7mk The Wii in general was when Nintendo Peaked. Wii Sports, Wii Fit, Super Mario Galaxy 1 and 2, Super Smash Bros Brawl, Twilight Princess, the list goes on...

Man I really love this game: the graphics, the characters, the soundtrack, ALL is perfect =,)
Dk snowboard cross - like
Dk summit - reply
:)
Nah it’s DK Summit
Hi
I never get tired of DK screaming, OOO SHWAE HOOOOO, after getting shot out that cannon
"DKs snowboard cross"
Mario snowboarding statue: Wahoo it is then
When I was younger I would do this track in time trials and towards the end I would always do multiple tricks on the half pipe with the shy guys
One of my favorite tracks in mario kart wii
@Magmox808 SAME!!!!
the fact that there’s people still listening mario kart wii osts in 2024 just put a smile on my face.
I still remember the super shortcut in this track, good times
Another gold slime brother awesome. Also those shy guys were killing it
It's back in MK8DX
With a soundtrack so good, it amazes me that this is only my 3rd favorite track in the game!! How??!!
For people who don’t know, this is called DK Summit in America.
9th March is wave 4
“1, 2, 3, 4” - K. K. Slider
POV: you’re up at 4am watching funny memes 345
Wow. This brings back alot of memories.
Used short cut to demolish my friends
Loved those damn Wii shortcuts
Barely noticed the amazing bass until now somehow.
My favorite track on the whole game, i just love it
Top 5 best Mario kart soundtracks of all time
Gah the single cut is hard enough for me much less the double 😔
I remember unveiling that little trick playing my mates. They went wild 😂
Get ready for extreme nostalgia on march 9th 2023 DK SUMMIT IS FINALLY BACK IN WAVE 4 ( Fruit Cup ) 🤩👋
This one is pure fun and amazement and feels so fitting for the track
every year i come back to play this track 😭
Someone’s bri’ish
Ayo bruv ya got a problam wif the bloke being bri’ish ye? Have at it then ya bloody wanka
@dylan barter that’s Australian.
@@henrygerecke5376 no it's because in America this track is called dk summit
how did you know???????
@@kooshio And in Canada (where I'm from)
thanks K.K Slider for the feature
i see by the "most replayed" pin being at 0:31 that we all agree this part hits hard
雪と言う自然環境に対して無機質な電子音。それらは相反する性質を持つ様に見えて、自然環境とのギャップと無機質な寒さが絶妙に噛み合う。その心地良さを噛みしめざるを得ない。
DK Summit for the win, don't @ mii!
Hmm, sorry, @YodakillerMusic! We think your #Wii and #MarioKartWii is a North American copy. Everywhere else, I think you'll see it's DK's Snowboard Cross.
This OST just screams childhood for me
This will always be the best Mario Kart of all time
Today we know this track is coming back in march 9. in MK8 Deluxe I'm hyped🙏🏼
Ahh...DK Summit.
The only track in the series that has lyrics
this course better make a return in MK8D
0:52 that transition is so sick
One of the 2 composers for this game also helped compose the music in Splatoon 2.
It all makes sense now

Some call it DK Summit. Others call it DK Snowboard Cross. I call it Winter DK Mountain.
'Look Who Made It In Mario Kart Tour'
*Intro* 1 2 3 4! *snazzy music*
Also called DK Summit
Been replaying this game and man how much did i miss this map 😹🤣
This song was destroyed in the mk8 bcp
not destroyed but very noticeably worse. no need to change the instruments it's already perfect
Nah I like the new version better.
Mi soundtrack favorito de cualquier juego en general ❤
Gracias por tanto perdon por tan poco Mario Kart Wii :'V
It's actually called DK Summit
It depends on your region. In the Japanese and PAL releases, it is known as DK's Snowboard Cross.
@@storyofwoe oh well thx for the facts
Why do they change the name in different regions anyways?
@@rainbowrunner1550 to make the tracks appeal more to the anerican audience
@@ben3359 can confirm. As a European I cream when I hear snowboard
It's in Wave 4! Hell Yeah!
Okay am I the only one who’s never heard the 1,2,3,4 until now reading all these comments? I was always excited to go in that cannon 😂
this was the main reason i got hyped up when playing this track as a kid
The most undereated music track in the game.
Why are the Mario kart songs so catchy
Anybody watch videos from clumsy or memenade and here this in the background
Why at the beginning did I hear a voice as if it were a character from Animal Crossing? "One, Two, Three, Four!!!"
Лучший саундтрек
best song ever in Nintendo Mario Kart Wii
"That name change is the only reason I'm staying in America; I'm more of a Summit guy"
No Espaço Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Booster Course Pass Wave 4
the first 2 seconds sounds like the Nintendogs shopping theme
Ah yes, running around with a red sword while people chase me in Stay alive and flex your time on others while this song plays :]
This is my favorite stage
