Mario Kart Tour Retro Track Comparison 1

[@1AMdoesSomething]

I like how the Retro Courses that were also Retro in 7 and 8 have their looks from those games.

[@yaexx341]

how do you get all those tracks in mario kart tour? I don't get several, like those of the n64, I only get the snow track, do you have to pay something or how do you get all the tracks?

[@penguinlol3786]

@@yaexx341 ummm there’s only a few tracks in each tour to play more you need to wait for another tour (ik I wish they added a way to play any track whenever you wanted)

[@KingdomofEvania100]

For some reason they didn’t keep their music

[@KevSB07]

if only that were true though Donut plains, for example, is infinitely less detailed here, even ignoring the graphics its missing a lot compared to mk8

[@elijahtorres2688]

Probably because they wanted to port more recent remakes (except Maple Treeway, since it does look a bit different, in terms of colors) with more modern textures, than remake it completely (to save time, ig).

[@JespoGamingWorld]

I never noticed how much they flattened MK7’s Rainbow Road until I saw it side by side… there’s like NO bumps or hills

[@scottsbeans]

Imo what sucks most is that you cant do the skip at the end of the track bc of how flat it is :P

[@rafario448]

they flattened a bit, but the 3DS FOOTAGE IS WAAAY STREECHED, look at the item box

[@93ImagineBreaker]

now they flattened the hill as will in the remake

[@harrisonmoore3841]

Same w/ Toad Circuit

[@Thefly-vh8tv]

I really hope that Nintendo doesn't release more than 1 SNES track in the upcoming Booster Pass. Unless they go full on MK 8 remake style like they did with the SNES Donut Plains 3 track, the SNES remakes in Tour are very bland to me. It works for mobile, but it seems like a wasted slot when it comes to the upcoming Pass. I do really like what they have done with the courses from the N64 and beyond though

[@davyj4877]

i'm almost positive any SNES tracks are going to be the RMX versions

[@e-scorts7485]

I agree, the SNES tracks are not that engaging. I’d only be fine with any Mario Circuits and ones that haven’t been remade on console.

[@MarioCorey]

i would only like maybe a small koopa beach track to fill in that small slot or snes bowser castle 2 i think? its the one where theres like 4 paths you take on the last turn. if i had the option i wouldnt bring any snes tracks over though. any gba track im fine with though as long as its not a gba bowser castle port.

[@kyuii2642]

vanilla lake is basically confirmed going by leaks

[@Thefly-vh8tv]

@@kyuii2642 Maybe Mario Circuit as well, according to the data mining. If they're basing on the Tour remakes, I'm hoping for the Mario Circuit 2 layout. 3 would be okay (though 200cc is going to be a nightmare withall of the turns), 1 seems too bland when compared to the other two options. My ultimate hope is each lap has its own layout.

@honey queen Well, here's hoping it will be re-released in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe's course booster pass!

[@Chiisaru]

Thanks you for this video, It's really informative knowing how retro tours were adapted in tour and now imagine how Nintendo could readapt them into 8 Deluxe so it can't feel like a copy paste from the mobile game

[@Vodotix]

And with whatever limitations the team had, they did a pretty decent job at porting the tracks to Mario Kart 8 Deluxe.

[@Ni-wx4dk]

@@Vodotix yes, even though changes were small I still found them enjoyable

[@TT-rl7pu]

I hope if 3DS Rainbow Road comes over, they add back some of the twistyness and take that opportunity to put in anti-grav.

@@invisanon to be fair, Maple Treeway is the same as in MK7 (just different textures and colors), but I do agree with Kalamari Desert!

[@Music2Anime]

Airship fortress is the one that I think looks better as the original. It's gloomier between the darker colors and the destroyed castle top.

[@geschnitztekiste4111]

God, Alpine Pass looks absolute ass without any textures. Who peeled those trees dude? XD Also, it’s sad to see the ice tracks lose all personality. Frappe Snowland had such an almost divine athmosphere with its dark blue sky and white fields, and Rosalina‘s Ice World, while not that interesting to play, felt magical still with its weird green and purple hues within the blues. Mariokart tour throws the same blue pallette on both of them and calls it a day.

[@elijahtorres2688]

I mean, it was made for MOBILE devices, which is why they don’t look as appealing, but still… I do hope that’s NOT what they will look like in the Booster Pack, though…

We still don't have any Mario Kart 8 tracks in Mario Kart Tour. I wonder why? Actually, this probably confirms Mario Kart Tour isn't compatible with antigravity. But there are several tracks in Mario Kart Tour that have sections where antigravity is vital, including Rock Rock Mountain, 3DS Rainbow Road and Merry Mountain R/T.

When you stretch and distort the aspect ratios from the original ones, it makes it really hard to compare.

[@Aurora12488]

Eh, seems like a fine tradeoff to me for the purposes of a comparison; it's not like I have to play them while squashed/stretched. There's really no perfect way to compare landscape video to portrait; cropping aggressively would lose too much detail, while putting them side-to-side unmodified would either have huge black bars or would way over-emphasize the landscape one.
