I really wanted this course in MK8D, I don't understand why this course was not picked as an obvious choice while they decided that 8 wii courses were necessary.

[@BarnaOficial]

Probably they wouldn't add any of the Booster Course Pass tracks to the new Mario Kart so they decided to keep this one for it

DS was my first Mario Kart and I distinctly remember this being my favorite track as a child because of the cannon, I thought it was super unique and had never seen it before on a track. Now we might get it in Wave 4 which is just around the corner (a month or two) alongside Singapore Speedway which I consider to be one of the best city tracks, both in HD in MK8, the times are good and hype folks.

I honestly prefer Tour’s version over the rest. I love tracks that take place when the sun is setting and now you can actually see the fortress in the background.

And the wine barrel wall leading to the bar area looks very cool too

[@civera.]

But the lava...💀

[@nathanshipley437]

My only gripe with the tour version is the sky. The sky doesn’t really fit the vibe of the track to me

[@shrapt3528]

nah the lava looks so shit and out of place. The original is meant to take place high in the sky beside a tall fortress but in this it just looks weird

The inside of the fortress in Tour’s version is very pretty, which is nice because it was always a little bland in the other ones
