Mario Kart Wii - Custom Track Expert Shortcuts and Strats | 15 Years (2008-2023)

Happy 15 years~
Welcome to what is undoubtedly the biggest video I’ve ever uploaded. After many hours of work, I’m very proud of the final result but am glad to have this done. Honestly didn’t even consider the anniversary until after I started this project a couple weeks ago, but thought I might as well go all out once I realized. There will probably be a couple strats I missed here and there, either because I didn’t think of them in time or I just didn’t feel like they were worth including. All that being said, the idea of this video is primarily to help people learn some of the more difficult aspects of custom tracks, so I hope you’ll enjoy and be able to get something out of watching this :)
Also want to give a major shoutout to my boy Andrew for helping me with edits and ideas.

This takes me back man. Feels really good to see another video like this in 2023!!! Excellent work

[@canton412]

Thanks Emil, and I gotta give major respect to your video from 2018. Definitely an inspiration for making this 🔥

[@rowlet4ever]

Lets Go! Ive been wanting one of these for a while cause I dont know alot of strats on the newer tracks, Ill definitely come back to this video alot. Edit: That DK Ruins cut was Crazy

[@beanzard64]

It still feels so crazy to think it’s been 15 years… This is a super cool video, great job (:

[@tdsjack51]

Probably going to use some in online play 💪

[@mrchikkin755]

Awesome vid dude! Love the music choices!

[@andrew9659]

It was so much fun getting to work with you here, this turned out great! Well done all around!

[@canton412]

Always appreciate the help bro, this wouldn’t have been the same otherwise 😎

[@Wingcapman]

While it feels weird to show custom tracks from at least one of the latest 2023 updates of CTGP-R v1.03+ (at the time this message got posted), plenty of custom tracks simply didn't get the spotlight here. But that's alright, this is for Mario Kart Wii's 15th anniversary, and it's still such a treat to watch all of it. Happy 15th anniversawii, Mario Kart Wii. 🎂

[@canton412]

Wanted to focus the video around tracks in the current version of CTGP-R since that’s what new players who could benefit the most from this video will probably have access to. Still glad to hear you enjoyed it though 👍

[@andet5080]

Incredible work with this compilation!

[@ciarandowling]

love thisss instant sub

[@Oliveoil-ey6qf]

This feels exactly like a shortcut video from 2017-2018. Even the music gives those vibes. It’s nice seeing one of these with more modern custom tracks. Amazing work

[@orca3707]

Haven’t watched all of the video yet, however I can already tell this is going to be really good! Huge congrats on completing this!

[@entropy_v1]

Great stuff, hoping this gets the attention it deserves with all the effort I know you put into it.

[@gib-_-]

[@EliDiscord]

whoa canton this is awesome

[@derby3320]

Yo it’s been a while since someone made a shortcuts video nice Canton !

[@consumify]

Awesome, also love the music choices lmao

[@sakno689]

Great stuff man!

[@Soggypotatoes29]

I really like the fact you also put nostalgic songs from like previous shortcut videos. Really shows how far we’ve come to this game :) Beautiful montage of the shortcuts and strats. There were a lot I didn’t even know about 😂

[@canton412]

Yeah was hoping the music would be nostalgic for long-time players. Glad you enjoyed it and learned something new 😀

[@LiamDeege]

@canton412 I hope you read this someday, but thanks for including Plain Asia in this because it’s one of my favorite songs of all time and it’s just one of those songs you never hear anymore and I’m glad it’s not as forgotten as I think. 🥲🥲🙂🙂

[@WiiLord95]

Wow. Listening to a lot of this music really makes me feel like a kid again

[@LiamDeege]

I know, most of the songs I feel tons of nostalgia for, especially Plain Asia.

[@LiamDeege]

Cried as soon as I heard Plain Asia 🥲🥲

[@emiddlenameg]

Damn this almost an hour

[@canton412]

Yep grab your popcorn 😂
