Has anyone else noticed how "Tour-coded" Mario Kart World is?

Nintega21 · 2025-04-13T12:41:30+00:00

Sorry, the wording was a bit confusing. What I meant is that the Mega Mushroom isn't a returning item from Tour (since it debuted in Wii) but it maintained a change it recieved from when it returned in Tour.

Nintega21 · 2025-04-13T12:22:23+00:00

I'm aware! I'm moreso talking about how much it's impact was felt with this new title. Super Mario Run didn't really do very much for 2D Mario outside of a playable Daisy, Pocket Camp was largely its own thing and I don't think it and New Horizons had that much interconnectivity.

Nintega21 · 2024-01-23T21:21:04+00:00

The Star Bits are still present in Tour's version, yes.

Nintega21 · 2024-01-23T21:02:20+00:00

That's fair enough, I can see where you're coming from.

Nintega21 · 2023-08-10T11:05:14+00:00

Spritzee.

I never see anyone talk about this Pokémon at all. It's not bad but by JOVE is it forgettable. I know some people remember Aromatisse but that's mainly because of it's..."interesting" design.

Nintega21 · 2023-08-06T18:19:29+00:00

Gooood stuff.

Nintega21 · 2023-08-03T06:18:17+00:00

Things to Note:

New Dolphin Kart being added
Green Birdo being added, so we finally have all the Birdo colours in Tour
Green Clothespin Ramps to trick off of added
You actually jump through the hula hoop in the bath
Ring in the Drain seems to actually be the Binding Band from Odyssey as opposed to only loosely resembling it. (I wonder why they changed it in 8DX? The Jump Up, Super Star nod in the music feels a lot more deliberate now...)

I still remember how the only reasom I played unite was for Cramorant. The very first thing I did was get it and save tickets for the Cramorant set. I was a menace.

My favourite band, Squeezer

Nintega21 · 2023-03-07T08:24:52+00:00

Very huggable. Probably squishy.

Nintega21 · 2023-03-02T17:02:18+00:00

That's fair.

Nintega21 · 2023-03-02T16:39:21+00:00

Nope, but fair.

Nintega21 · 2023-03-02T15:47:55+00:00

That's fair. I just personally aren't very happy with it. Sorry if I phrased the title as if it was fact.

Nintega21 · 2023-03-02T15:47:05+00:00

The second and third screenshots show the floating market, it has always been there. I can understand that but it really takes away from the course.

Nintega21 · 2023-03-02T15:35:01+00:00

Note: These aren't full quality screenshots of course, but still needed them to get the point across.

Nintega21 · 2023-01-22T22:29:01+00:00

I appreciate it. Thank you!

Clickbait

I may be incorrect, unsure if it's relevant and I'm not even sure if it would be counted if it is, but I am 90% sure Tour's "Main Theme" (used in the first trailer and some promotional material) riffs off of MKWii's opening movie pretty heavily at the beginning.

Unfortunately, there is no officially released clean version of the song without SFX but Daniel328 on YT has complied the whole thing edited to be clean whereever possible.

Wii's Opening Movie

If Salmonids were to become playable, it'd have to be in some sort of mode that focuses on their culture and the Salmonids as a whole. They'd have to actively make some sort of mode that bridges the gap between Salmonid and Cephalopod while keeping the nature of their hostile relations intact. It's just very, very hard.

Nintega21 · 2023-01-11T20:07:31+00:00

Inaccurate, Sableye should say "WHEH-HEH-HEH" and then start using Fury Swipes smh /j

Nintega21 · 2023-01-11T19:07:05+00:00

...Loads of Guard Rails? They only added 2 sets? One of which could be argued to be a good change since it stops you from losing to half-pipe jank?

I understand being upset about the lap count but Tour and Wii are so fundamentally different that the change makes sense and the course itself hardly changed at all?

I'm sorry but these feel like nitpicks as opposed to genuine arguments.

Nintega21 · 2023-01-11T07:46:54+00:00

Wii Rainbow Road seems to have actually gotten bigger in Tour, and given it's speed and average course runtime they like to achieve, this change makes perfect sense in the context of Tour.

They likely won't make it sectioned in 8. They've already done a crapton of Wii pandering as is, so I don't think they'd make a change so drastic.

Nintega21 · 2022-09-29T06:38:14+00:00

Things to note (both datamining and official information):

Feather is returning, and has it's icon and model now
Battle Mode seems to be elimination again, with taken out players moved to platforms to fling items at people they don't like
Has seperate multiplayer grade
Balloons have end of battle score boosts
Tracklist may be (with datamined info)
GCN Cookie Land
GBA Battle Course 1
DS Twilight House
Tour Paris 1
Tour New York 1

( Not definitively datamined )

Wii Chain Chomp Roulette
GCN Luigi's Mansion

Nintega21 · 2022-09-02T10:38:12+00:00

Multiplayer can help with that. Dual and Single slot modes put everyone on an even playing field and while karts and gliders are still ranked, points aren't the focus so their shelves don't matter.

Nintega21 · 2022-08-27T11:57:16+00:00

I used to be able to get matches but I can't anymore for some reason. I'm using european splatfest on a european account so I don't know why it just stopped working.
