All the tracks look extremely distorted in their dimensions in a weird way, I can't even describe it. Like, they don't look like they are supposed to. The dimensions are just totally off and it feels out of place somehow.

Yeah, and I just I hope that there is going to be an extremely gigantic significant graphics update for all of the courses, even in future waves and have all the graphics the same as the base game course graphics. And don't forget about those start/finish lines from the BCP, they probably need to be decorated on at least the 2 long ends of the start/finish lines and some having to be decorated on all ends of the start/finish lines just like the start/finish lines out in the base game, for example, GBA Ribbon Road has a start/finish line that has a yellow wooden rod right onto each end of it

Here’s hoping they will eventually add my favorite Course of all time “Delfino Square” to the game in the foreseeable future👍

[@BaoredGanyu]

MK7 had such amazing tracks, all of them except two have been in MK8 and Tour, those two being the Wuhu tracks, which i would love to see in MK8DX (though i would prefer if they didnt use the MK8 Wuhu Town music, it doesnt sound as good as the MK7 one)

[@hylianro]

Delfino square is already in the game as a battle course I thought

All eight of these racetracks look amazing but I'm most excited for Peach Gardens in every way! I'm really looking forward to racing on all eight racetracks in Wave 3! It's gonna be awesome, that's for sure! 🤗

[@sonicgalaxy27]

Maple Treeway and 3DS Rainbow looks beautiful in those graphics. Nintendo is really nailing on these waves. I hope I see a cleaner graphics like these in Mario Kart 9.

I’m so excited for this next wave! Maple treeway is going to be awesome! And rock rock mountain?! This is what I wanted! And 3DS rainbow road?!?! I’m gonna have a heart attack… This is going to be great!

[@giygas_9577]

I am right there with you. When they showed Maple Treeway, and then 3DS Rainbow Road, and THEN Rock Rock Mountain, I felt like that meme of Vince McMahon where he just keeps getting more and more excited until he finally falls backwards in his chair.

[@yoshifan1913]

But I’m going to be completely honest. I kinda like wave 2 better. I meen I really like this wave! But I feel like I know more of wave’s 2 tracks more than 3. It doesn’t mean I hate wave 3 I still like it and I will still look forward of what comes next!

I almost started crying when i saw 3DS Rainbow Road, that remix is amazing, the track looks amazing and mariokart 7 was the first mariokart where I 3 starred everything on every cup on every CC.

[@GalaxyWisp]

Some pretty good choices here! I LOVE that they're doing Rock-Rock Mountain as that was one of my favorite courses in all of Mario Kart 7, Boo Lake looks like they're going to get pretty creative with it thanks to you being able to go underwater now which I am more than happy with (I ADORE how in the last wave they completely changed up the track of Kalimari Desert), Mario Kart 7's Rainbow Road might not have been my first choice (that honor goes to Double Dash!) however it looks like they are going to vastly improve upon it which I can appreciate, and Maple Treeway...yeah that was only a matter of time (I still remember bitterly how that was like the ONLY track anyone ever wanted to play CONSTANTLY on Wii's online).

[@DisneyTLK110]

Imagine how it would've looked like with the Mario Kart 8 2014 standard. These courses still look like Mario Kart Tour, a much cheaper simpler artstyle making them feel completely out of place from the base game. At least the price per track is very cheap.

[@CosmicMcRad]

@@DisneyTLK110 That was true for Wave 1, but these tracks look just as good as base game imo. At least, calling them cheap is disingenuous and pretentious.

[@DisneyTLK110]

@@CosmicMcRad they absolutely do not look like the base game, far from it, that's a fact. They match the quality of Tour, not Mario Kart 8. At least the price oer track is cheap, though.

[@gabrielsnowo]

@@NintenPyra I wouldn't be either, but it's so lazy that I can't even think of it as an "art style" at this point - if the whole game looked like this then fine, but when you go from cool and generally realistic on the Wii U to something just imported and thrown together in blender overnight it sorta makes you a little upset... That's all, but if you like it then that's wonderful! I wish I did as well, I just can't no matter how I look at it. There was 0 effort put into any of the graphics for this booster dlc

[@maxtes252]

They should also touch up Rock Rock Mountain because it has the same problem of being taken straight from Tour.

[@EnvyDSin]

3DS Rainbow Road is probably the gem of this pack. It might be a one lap/three checkpoint track but unlike RR64, it has the right on being that (Mount Wario/Big Blue levels of right) because of how long it REALLY is. Lots of people will race on Maple Tree Way often. Don't know if it's because I haven't played Super Circuit but discovering their tracks in a MK8 type of thing is nice.
