Mario Kart 9 Needs to REMOVE This...

[@Crafty_boy70]

I disagree. While the coin item doesn't _stop_ you from frontrunning, being able to get double defense items would make it completely impossible to take out 1st without blue shells or the shock. When you're restricted to 1 defense at a time, the other players can still get you with strategic item play. Plus holding the coin stops you from getting your defense stolen by the boo.

[@Switchkid64]

Yo I didn't know you were a fellow Nin10doland veiwer! Also fully agree.

The fake item block kind of served this purpose in the older games. But those didn't feel as bad to pull since you could lay them as traps which you barely use the bananas for since they are crucial for defence.

[@sonally5626]

@Switchkid64 - Ha! How could you seriously compare all of what you said, to the cc speed number, what’s even the point of coins serving as a speed boost? They’re just flat out useless, throughout out all Mario Kart entries not including Tour, because of the fact that you can use them to buy stuff in it’s in-game shop. Also, every time I am reminded of Coins being an item in Mario Kart 8 is just infuriating, complete waste of an item slot.

[@Switchkid64]

@sonally5626 "wHaT's EvEn ThE P0inT oF C0inS sErViNg as a Sp3Ed b0OsT?" don't make me laugh! This is a racing game, so on a fundamental level more speed=more likely to win. Are you stupid? It's nothing like the change in CC either, as it's actually an increase to your *max acceleration,* rather than your base speed. Anyone who says they're useless clearly has yet to participate in any sort of official tournament, namely because of how dependent the mere concept of _sandbagging_ is, which is also something that's almost certainly alien to you. And yes, there's no denying that they're a basic item, and I would love to see a game with, like, twice as many items in it, but as per my previous comment, I don't think you understand how broken first place is without it, in the worst way possible on multiple fronts. A coinless world allow first to pull nothing but shells, bananas, bombs and horns; letting them frontrun the entire race with almost no penalties at all since it's so hard to get rid of their protection and still have the item to actually hit them. Moreover, it removes an entire element from competitive play, as without almost a nothing item you can't trick your opponents in 2nd, 3rd, and the like by making them think you're unprotected, then pull protection out of nowhere. Or the opposite, them not trageting you because you succesfully bluffed a protection item being behind your coin. Or a boo stealing what is again almost a nothing item and letting you keep your protection (and that doesn't make for broken frontrunning as mentioned above, since you still only have 1 item and 2nd can have 2). Next time do at least a little *thinking* and see what the good players actually think before saying something idiotic like this, okay?

[@Redturtle1_Gaming]

Great Video, but I could not disagree more with you here. Coins are GAME CHANGERS in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. Everyone underestimates how much of a difference that they make when you have all 10. I have won COUNTLESS races just because I have more coins then my opponent. Having the coin item is also helpful for Boo defense, as it can keep your more powerful defense items safe. With that being said, I do like the idea of them doubling as a currency to unlock different things kind of like Mario Kart Tour, but they are a very important item to winning, especially in competitive play. Great video none the less. PS, because I want to be that guy: (Nerd Accent) Urm, you pronounced JPG's name wrong, its JG Give-ner. :)

you can use them strategically for instance you can have a coin and hold it just in case if a boo steal steals it. On top of that, you can hold the coin so other players won’t know what your other item is.

@ *"The coin item isn’t good it’s not even good balance 1st item like the fake item served a better purpose in the previous game."* Fake Item Boxes are easy to avoid.

Only the DS's Mission Mode gets a pass.

@ true but Nintendo can always make it look like a real item box just that it would not be overpowered as it was in mk64. Plus the fake item box has a large hitbox and u can hit other players with it hide it behind item box or blind turns. The only reason Nintendo falied to make it less obvious even though they tried in Wii

[@mk8-mkwil117]

In mk64 the fake item was broken to the point u can block other item except for the blue shell with it that’s only because they code it to have a collision behavior to interact with other items. Which was a huge mistake on the developer behalf

The third option would be (kinda) similiar to CTR Nitro-Fueled; Coins don't appear during races but are simply given at the end depending on your placement, the first few hours playing online each day gives you a bonus, playing during the weekends also gives a bonus, coins are used as an in-game currency to buy customisation options. They could also implement a rotation of challenges (daily, weekly, etc.) that give you extra coins by completing them.

[@dewzan]

I think the third idea of coins being used as in-game currency is a really good idea, and I would hope to see that implemented without any transactions involving real money. I think my best idea is that coins should be used in a way that CTR used them, once you have 10 coins, your items get powered up. Your green shells could become red shells, bombs would have bigger explosions, a golden mushroom could be a platinum/diamond mushroom, etc. And that would also mean that you wouldn't get a coin as an item. I don't think they should speed you up because that would make it easier to break away if you get into first, especially if you lose coins if you get hit, you'll often get hit more in the middle of the pack. Maybe it would be best if you never lost coins during races and have the coins in more tricky spots so that you have to work to get 10 coins, even if you're in first. Coins are a great idea for Mario Kart, but I think 8DX executed it poorly.

[@toumabyakuya]

Coins are actually quite balanced in 8DX. They prevent first place from having two defensive items, aren't hard to get (so going max speed is quite simple) and they help block Boo.

[@dewzan]

@@toumabyakuya And that's the philosophy I strongly disagree with. It's frustrating getting a coin as an item when second place gets triple reds all the time. Using them to prevent your other item getting stolen is fine, but the Boo is just frustrating in general, so it's a win-lose. And you definitely shouldn't get coins as items when you already have 10. Coins are balanced in a way, but still feel very unfun and restrictive to the player.

[@toumabyakuya]

@ *"It's frustrating getting a coin as an item when second place gets triple reds all the time."* Now imagine if First place got two stacks of Greens or Bananas.

[@dewzan]

@@toumabyakuya I do prefer how Wii plays, I think Wii was more strategic and had more depth than 8DX does. There's still depth of course, but it feels more shallow in comparison. Wii is typically more chaotic and unpredictable, which is what MK should be. 8DX feels much more predictable and item-spammy. It'd be easier to beat players in first if they didn't get speed buffs to begin with. Also, first gets superhorns anyway, which I also think shouldn't be allowed. The boo isn't an issue with the coin, it's just an example of how keeping the coin is artificially strategic.

[@toumabyakuya]

@ *"I think Wii was more strategic and had more depth than 8DX does."* What "strategy"? You just had to use Funky on a bike and that's everything. *"Wii is typically more chaotic and unpredictable, which is what MK should be."* No, it shouldn't be. I loathe how, whenever I am first place, people will go and chain me till I am in last place. That's no fun at all. Only a masochist would say that it is. *"8DX feels much more predictable and item-spammy."* That's a good thing, it shows that there's balance. *"It'd be easier to beat players in first if they didn't get speed buffs to begin with."* But that would bring back the problem Wii had with most players using the same character/vehicle combo. *"Also, first gets superhorns anyway, which I also think shouldn't be allowed."* Why? The main use of the Superhorn is to destroy Blue Shells. *"The boo isn't an issue with the coin, it's just an example of how keeping the coin is artificially strategic."* It is still proof of the strategy you love so much.

@@sonicexe66613 *"There's three star coins on each track, but they don't respawn, which will fix the grinding issue a little bit."* It wouldn't, at all.

Items would repeat too quickly causing an item bloat problem, with the only solution being to have very few characters.

[@Husseskanal]

No no no. Don’t remove coins, it gives the game more depth with rewarding good driving, and, being in first place you are often protected from the worst mayhem, if every item gave you defense, it wouldn’t be fair.

[@toumabyakuya]

Meanwhile I disagree with the Coin being an useless item in-race (it is actually quite useful not only to get speed, but also to hold off Boo), I agree with the idea being improved upon and I have two games as examples: Crash Team Racing and Sonic Riders. Let me start with Riders because it is simple. At the end of any race the game adds any Rings you got in the race (plus a bonus based on which place you finished the race on) to your bank account, then you could use them to buy items in the shop. Mario Kart 9 should do this. Then there's CTR. In this game when you get 10 Wumpa Fruits (the currency of Crash) all your items become stronger. MK9 could do a similar thing. Green Shells evolve into Red ones (or even Blue ones if you are close to last place), Super shrooms turn into Golden ones and so on.

Game currency woukd be a GREAT IDEA! Coins are rendered USELESS after a while in MK8

[@Switchkid64]

Clearly you have 0 online experience with this game. Just time yourself driving literally any straight distance, and you'll easily be able to tell how much they boost your speed. And the coin item is even more important. It's kinda the band-aid that holds the race together. Do you understand how broken 1st would be if all they pulled was greens and 'nannas, making them impossible to hit?

WHOS EXCITED FOR SWITCH 2?!

[@marcuslk07]

I just don't like that it looks so simular to Switch 1. We waited nearly 8 years to see the next console and all we got is basically the same thing but just with a few changes. It just wasn't really what i had hoped for… Don't get me wrong, i don't hate the Switch 2 and the new Mario Kart looks cool but i just hoped they were gonna make a brand new home console.

[@soop-yes]

all they need to do is make it if you have 10 coins they wont give you any more.

[@toumabyakuya]

That would meant that first place not only has access to their Max Speed, but also to two defensive items. In other words, they would always frontrun the race.

[@sharkgam3z592]

The coins are seen in the trailer so they are back

[@The_InfiniVerse]

Mario Kart 10, not 9.

[@Gavincrossings]

What is even the point of coins you only get that in first place which is useless, unless you can use it to buy new carts

[@Doeperr]

This would be crazy and really cool

[@AnthonySmith-bj9mo]

hi Nin10doland

[@looksliketroll7897]

My opinion: Keep the coins, just delete them from items. Bring back the old progression system from Mariokart Wii so skill matters not farming the same track over and over. God bless❤️✝️

[@toumabyakuya]

*"...so skill matters"* If by "skill" you meant playing as Funky on a bike, sure.

[@user-dj8ip9ky2t]

you watch nintendo yet piratedknucks

[@TheChompChamp7650]

I always hated the coins.

[@johneon52productions]

Well there this or pitstop.

[@teobridialbano2225]

It will b awesome if nintendo listen 2 the fans!

[@Switchkid64]

let's hope they don't listen to this one though, coins are kinda the band-aid that holds the entire system together.

[@olivierf2938]

I like the channel a lot but some of the opinions expressed are pretty terrible, like this one.😅

[@JosuéColina-837]

New Game Menu This Game

[@saltboyanimates]

The games not even out!!

[@shenronsamma4650]

i loved the coins n mk 7 but yeah mk 8 they just felt meh

[@Todayiskyle]

REMOVE COINS I HATE WHEN IM IN FIRST AND I NEED DEFENSE ITEMS THEN I GET A FAUKEN COIN!!!

[@CalebWillden]

I'm pretty sure coins have been confirmed to be on the track, as you can see them in the Switch 2 reveal during the scene of the long stretch of road. If they don't do mid-race and post-race purchasing, I hope they at LEAST make it way more obvious that it boosts your speed and that they aren't items. LOVE the idea of being able to continue to collect coins on other Switches. You could even bring along cart combos or Miis (if those return). They could easily do this with Amiibo, or if the new controllers can store data like the Wii Remotes could like how you could save and load your name and control scheme for Brawl.

[@saltboyanimates]

Stop milking this!!!

[@CapnAnime]

I think a lot of ppl in chat are either confused or didn't watch the video bc they all think this guy is suggesting that we just remove coins as a whole when 80% of the video is him talking about how they could improve coins

[@toumabyakuya]

No, we aren't confused, we just disagree that Coins aren't useful in a race.

[@Deion88]

I agree with you on this

[@TheCinemaSimpelton]

You mean Mario Kart 10, right? Because we already have MK9 with Tour!

[@crystalmiller1687]

Mario tour is not Mario kart 9 stupid

[@jeffreygonzalez-oc2xq]

coin need to stay in the road only not use as iteam because can make Mario kart 9 not fun

[@toumabyakuya]

That would turn the competitive into a game of "collect all coins". Not good at all.
