Predicting The FINAL Mario Kart Booster Course Pass Waves

[@TheDynastyWarrior13]

So the only hole in your argument that I'll highlight is that it doesn't take into account 2 things. 1. Datamined tracks coming to Tour that haven't been added ye, which are still very possible to end up as Booster Course Pass tracks. Tracks such as DS Mario Circuit and Shroom Ridge were added to the BCP before Tour, but both had been datamined for Tour. So we knew they were already planned for the game and is why they always stood a chance of being added to the BCP despite not already being in Tour when they became courses in the DLC. SNES Bowser Castle has been datamined for Tour and so has either Mushroom Bridge or Mushroom City, based on datamined assets. 2. It is entirely possible that Maple Treeway taking the spot of a GCN course in wave 3 means that we actually will receive one extra Wii track and one less GCN track. So instead of Maple Freeway merely causing the GCN course to be shifted to a later wave, it is possible that slot planned for a GCN track was outright replaced by an additional Wii track. Meaning we could possibly still get 3 more Wii tracks and only 2 more GCN tracks. So based on this information I actually think the last SNES track could very well be Bowser's Castle. If we have 96 tracks in the game it would be weird to have only 1 Bowser's Castle, especially if we have 5 Rainbow Road's. Since most of the SNES tracks are already in the game or similar ones are (Choco Island, Ghost Valley, Mario Circuit, Donut Plains, and RR already not possible or highly unlikely), our options are realistically Koopa Beach, Vanilla Lake, or Bowser's Castle. Vanilla Lake is widely hated and very similar to Snow Land. I doubt it takes up a slot. I expect Bowser's Castle 2 or 3 to take up the last SNES track. Then I think if we do get one additional Wii track that replaced the GCN track then I think Koopa Cape, Wii RR, and Dry Dry Ruins will all be added. However, if we really do still get 3 more GCN tracks then I expect Daisy Cruiser, either Dino Dino Jungle or DK Mountain (they share similar themes and the same music, so I only expect us to get one. And between the 2 I think it will be Dino Dino Jungle since we're likely getting another DK track and DK Mountain is pretty similar to DK Summit), and Mushroom Bridge. I picked Mushroom Bridge over Mushroom City because we already have so many city tracks that I think Mushroom Bridge makes more sense.

[@TheOmniverse1]

@SwitchStop If we do get 3 GCN tracks, I'm leaning towards Daisy Cruiser, Dino Dino Jungle, & Mushroom City, with the latter of the 3 for a variety of reasons. - Mushroom City has a more complex track design (ESPECIALLY since each Wave usually has more complex tracks), compared to Mushroom Bridge's simplistic design. - The way to avoid traffic hazards would be more unique, as you have to avoid traffic from ALL directions, ESPECIALLY at intersections, compared to Mushroom Bridge whicj rehashes the more simpler traffic patterns like Shroom Ridge, Toad's Turnpike, & even track not in Mario Kart Tour or 8 Deluxe yet like Moonview Highway. - The Wiggler vehicles, if implemented, would provide more of a challenge to avoid in Mushroom City than in Mushroom Bridge, due to the vehicles' long lengths; again, ESPECIALLY at intersections. But I could be wrong, and all is just my opinion. It ultimately comes down to which comes to Mario Kart Tour first - Mushroom Bridge or Mushroom City.

[@Magicwaterz]

​​@@TheOmniverse1 When you mentioned avoiding traffic in all directions made me think the Mushroom City can be treated like a changing route course like the Tour tracks, N64 Kalimari Desert, and DS Peach Gardens. I looked at the original map and noticed it has an inaccessible underpass, and 2 roads leading to nowhere. The Tour version could make variants of these inaccessible routes like 2, 3, 4. They did make a new route in GBA Boo Lake but was later removed in MK8DX as there is not reason to use that route as that one was used for the R variant in Tour. To further support this idea, Piranha Plant Cove has variants, in which as off typing this, has 2 variants, and it still has unused routes. This means that when it comes to MK8DX, it will be the first non-city Tour track to be a changing route track.

THANK YOU!!!! I've been saying for ages!!!! If we get RR Wii and no Bowser's Castle we'll have in one game 5 RR tracks and only 1 BC which is only the base games one which means 0 retro BC's. Now what I would want and could fill two of the nitro course slots would be a Tour Original BC course and a Tour Original RR course because every MK game has had their own ones. In my ideal world I'd have the final cup consist of An Original BC and RR, and then a Retro of both as well. One stretch is thag MobDK could mean Dark Kingdom for Bowser's Castle, and MobMU could be Mario Universe for RR. But both of those might be a stretch

[@mailpaper7754]

DK Mountain and Dino Dino Jungle getting in together is not unlikely. We have Mario Kart Stadium, Wario Stadium, and Waluigi Stadium, and 2 of these share the same music, we have 4 Mario circuit tracks, 4 (likely 5) Rainbow Roads and a ton of snow tracks, yet everyone just decides having 2 jungle tracks that share the same music in a DLC is far fetched and unlikely??

[@Crafty_boy70]

I think 2/3 of the "new" tracks in wave 6 will actually be more retros, having 3 "new" tracks in one wave is a lot!

[@MrShamui]

Yeah, 3 new tracks would be cool, but I don’t see it happening. Plus it would give room for Dry Dry Ruins AND Koopa Cape to fit in the BCP! And maybe another DS or 3DS track?

[@moneykenny119]

I wouldn't get your hopes up. Piranha Plant Cove, Bathroom track, and MobDK are 100% coming with one of them being wave 5, way too many assets have been found in Tour for them not to be a thing (and PPC is already a track). So 3 out of 4 are almost 100% new, with the 4th maybe being new and maybe being another retro.

What I found interesting about this is the fact that in the files there is a leaked DK track, possible implying that we might get a new track for each character added.

While a Switch themed track would be awesome, we do have to take into account that these “New” tracks are still Tour Nitros, even if they come to 8DX before they come to Tour, they are being made with Tour in mind first.

[@Gloomby1]

The fact that people have found out that SNES Bowser's Castle is without a doubt coming to Tour soon via ID's within the code that no other course could fit within makes it seem way more likely than Vanilla Lake (which doesn't make any sense why you'd rule out Choco Island and Ghost Valley because of Choco Mountain and Boo Lake while Snow Land gets a pass when it's literally the same thing as the other two mentioned). And no, Koopa Beach doesn't really have a chance at being added either since we are already getting a koopa level within the last two waves in the form of Koopa Cape. Another thing is that there have been datamined assets for Mushroom Bridge/City for a long time now in Tour with the wiggler bus, bob-omb car, and the mushroom car, so having both jungle tracks (while in the first place not making any sense at all since why would they add two courses from the same game with the same theming back-to-back?) obviously would have less of a chance of coming to the BCP. If anything, only Dino-Dino Jungle has a real chance of showing up anyways since we already have DK Summit, a Donkey Kong track where you are shot to the top of a mountain and make your way down to the end, which is the exact same premises of DK Mountain. Also they aren't just gonna stop remaking retro tracks once the BCP is finished. it's not like they're gonna drop the game once its over, and also there are plenty of tracks in Tour that won't even make it to the BCP anyways. Why would they stop remaking courses when it's clear that they are still continuing to do so? So in the end... yeah this prediction isn't good. the only one's I'd say are fine are Wii rainbow road, koopa cape, sunset wilds, piranha plant cove, and the already known city tracks, but that's because they're already basically guaranteed to be in the game. Other than that, yeah most of what you said doesn't seem likely at all. Guessing what the nitro tracks will be based off of nothing really doesn't help either. You really could've just mentioned that "we don't know what these could be at the time of this recording" and you'd be more justified in you're prediction than randomly guessing something like a goddamn switch course (which if it were to be real, wouldn't it be a battle course instead?)

Im pretty sure we’re getting wii rainbow road and koopa cape as well but it sad toad’s factory, moonview highway, bowser’s castle, daisy circuit even mario circuit from wii haven’t been remade ever as of yet. Hopefully they’re saving these ones for the next game and that way they won’t get butchered like alot of the other booster course/tour tracks. Also so many GCN and DS tracks that deserve a remake.

[@nito6133]

I just find it unfortunate that it’s the tour version of Koopa cape that will likely be used. The Wii version with the addition of anti gravity in the pipe would be incredible

[@scmtuk3662]

If anyone wants further proof that the prefix leak is actually real, the file names of the music match up with the prefix leak. GCN Waluigi Stadium is Cnsw_36 (2nd Course of Moon Cup in Wave 3, moved to the 3rd course in the Boomerang Cup) Tour Amsterdam Drift is Cnsw_41 (1st Course of Fruit Cup, one of only two Wave 4 courses not to be moved at all) Wii DK Summit is Cnsw_42 (2nd Course of the Fruit Cup, moved up by one to the 3rd course in the same cup) DS Mario Circuit is CNsw_43 (3rd Course pf the Fruit Cup, move up by three to the 2nd course in the Boomering Cup) Yoshi's Island is Cnsw_44 (4th Course of the Fruit Cup, the only other course not to be moved at all) Tour Singapore Speedway is Cnsw_45 (1st Course of the Boomerang Cup, moved to the end of that cup) GBA Riverside Park is Cnsw_47 (3rd Course of the Boomerang Cup, moved forward to the 2nd course of the Fruit Cup) Tour Bangkok Rush is Cnsw_55 (1st Course of the Cherry Cup in Wave 5, moved forward to the 1st course of the Boomerang Cup) Cnsw_46 and Cnsw_48 however, is missing. The prefix leak proves that this was going to be a GCN course. Since Wave 3's GCN course is in Wave 4, this means the _original_ GCN course intended for Wave 4 will be in Wave 5, or Wave 6. Cnsw_48 however, we already know is Tour Los Angeles Laps We also know that Cnsw_53 is GBA Sunset Wilds, Cnsw_61 is Tour Vancouver Velocity, and Cnsw_62 is Wii Maple Treeway (which of course was moved to Wave 3). So far, the only filenames we don't know are: Cnsw_46 (GCN), Cnsw_51 (Tour), Cnsw_52 (Wii), Cnsw_54 (Tour), Cnsw_56 (GCN), Cnsw_57 (SNES), Cnsw_58 (New), Cnsw_63 (new), Cnsw_64 (New), Cnsw_65 (Tour), Cnsw_66 (GCN), Cnsw_67 (New), Cnsw_68 (Wii) Although Cnsw_68 being Wii Rainbow Road just makes so much sense. However, there's a small possibility that the courses will again be moved around a bit. For example, the actual last course could be GCN Rainbow Road, as a surprise addition (or even GBA Rainbow Road, or DS Rainbow Road.... who knows ... although Wii RR seems the most likely, it's still not 100% confirmed).

[@goatprince1]

It's always nice to see a prediction made by somebody who actually knows what they're talking about and doesn't baselessly assume that two of the Wave 6 nitro slots are "ACKSHYULLY just placeholders for more retro tracks!!!!111!!" Although I do disagree with several things. The most glaring flaw in this prediction is the inclusion of both Dino Dino Jungle and DK Mountain, which seems extremely unlikely considering that they both have a very similar aesthetic and share the same music. There are actually a few more GCN courses to choose from here; the wiggler buses, bob-omb cars, and mushroom cars from Mushroom Bridge and Mushroom City were datamined for Tour a while back, so we know we're getting either one of those in Tour at some point in the future. We don't know which one it will be yet, but there's no way they'll include both GCN jungle courses when either Bridge or City is sitting right there. Also, the posters in Coconut Mall don't necessarily suggest anything seeing as the course's model was designed for Tour, which already has both Dino Dino Jungle and Vanilla Lake. As with the GCN courses, there's another SNES course to choose from as well, that being one of the Bowser Castle tracks. There's an ID gap in Tour that can only contain one of the SNES Bowser Castles, and quite conveniently, season IDs seem to suggest that it will come in mid-July, the most commonly speculated release window for Wave 5. Although we don't know which Bowser Castle we'll be getting, I personally believe that it has a MUCH higher chance of making into the BCP than Vanilla Lake, as any of the Bowser Castle tracks (especially 2 and 3) would make for a much more interesting and dynamic course than what essentially amounts to a bootleg version of Snow Land. Also, this is presumably our only chance of getting a retro Bowser's Castle in the BCP, and it would be a Bowser's Castle that's never been remade to boot, so the prospect of a SNES Bowser Castle in the BCP has quite a bit going for it. As far as the remaining city courses are concerned, I don't think we'll be getting Cairo. The reason for this is because of a suspiciously city-sized ID gap between Paris and Singapore. Assuming this ID gap really does contain a city course (and it almost certainly does due to its large size), then the name of the city must fit alphabetically between Paris and Singapore. Basically our only options are Rio, Rome, Seoul, and Shanghai, with Rio being the most likely candidate by far considering that we still don't have any South American representation among the city tracks. My final disagreement is with the Switch-themed nitro track, which I think is thoroughly unlikely simply due to the nitro courses being designed for Tour first and foremost. Unless Nintendo is attempting to do some serious self-promotion in Tour, then I don't think it's likely at all that Tour players will be driving around on a giant Nintendo Switch on their Androids and iPhones. That said, most of your course selections are very well educated and line up with the MK8DX datamines and Tour's current content, and it's obvious that you're not just some copium-huffer who's hopelessly listing off their personal favorite courses and arbitrarily omitting Tour tracks that we know we'll be getting just to squeeze in Maka Wuhu or whatever. Pretty good video.

[@jeremythegamer7548]

just an update, the athens track is called Athens Dash and the bathroom track is Squeeky Clean Sprint

[@maxminton7861]

This is a good list! I'd like to add my two cents. Firstly, since DK mountain and Dino Dino Jungle use the same music, I think they'll choose Mushroom Bridge. Mushroom Bridge is a largely popular track from double dash, and I don't really think they'd avoid it due to a focus on new tracks. They've got a long time to make it. DK Mountain is extremely likely due to how popular it is. Secondly, I think they're going to end the next wave off with the new DK track. I get the feeling that since there are two waves and five characters left, they're going to release two characters next wave and three the final wave. This would fit perfectly if wave 5 is DK themed, giving us Funky Kong and Diddy and ending it off with the new DK track. Though I don't think they'd add DK Mountain this early. Lastly, I think Vanilla lake is likely only due to the sign. But we also haven't had any Bowser Castle representation yet. I think it would fit if the SNES track was a Bowser Castle, and the final original track was a new bowser themed track. With all that said, here would be my personal predictions. (Didn't bother with city track changes).

I agree. It would be really weird for there to be 96 tracks in this game with only one of them being Bowser's Castle while MK Wii has 32 tracks with 3 Bowser's Castles.

The last "Nitro" track in the Acorn cup is probably BCP/Tour RainbowRoad. I get why most don't consider it a posibility, but there's three reasons why I think it'll happen: 1: Its the only cup with two "Nitro" tracks, and it's doesn't follow the usual pattern of City, Retro, Retro, Nitro. Rather, it's Tour, Retro, Nitro, Nitro. RainbowRoads are always the last track of a cup (aside from SNES RR because its special apparently) 2: Tour is the only MK Game currently WITHOUT its own unique RR, even counting the Arcade games. 3: I just think a RainbowRoad in the middle of a bustling city is cool lol My idea is that it takes place throughout a city, where you drive on a rainbow above city streets, weaving through/between buildings, with the finale sending you straight down the side of the tallest building in the city back to the start.

[@SamRegan610]

[@Prowler-iq7vk]

Nice that probably would have been close to my predictions.

[@MrYee-xf6ze]

Just a thought, Mobmu and Mobnu, one of them could be either a city track or a new nitro track from one another to go in line with probably wave 6. GCN Mushroom Bridge, even though it's not in Tour yet, has been datamined. Sometimes, tracks that are not in Tour yet have a chance to come to the BCP.

[@MiloMurphysLaw]

5:57 I expected you to say “just kidding, obviously BR actually stands for… (blank). A bathroom track would be ridiculous.” But no, you were serious.

[@skwid1404]

I don't think we will be getting both GCN Jungle tracks. They are too alike. I also hope this "MobDK" track is much different than the 3DS DK Jungle track. Would be odd having two tracks with the same sort of thing going for it.

[@hoteltapwater]

Ive seen speculation of MobDK being a pipe-themed track, since the japanese word "Dokan" means pipe

[@skwid1404]

@@hoteltapwater That would be cool. There are lots of pipe themed levels in Mario. Maybe we could see the baby wigglers from DS. The only problem is this pipe themed track is we already have Piranha Plant Slide in 8 so it would fall into the same problem being a DK track has. If its unique enough to stand out then I'm all for it. There's been some other speculation that MobDK is Daisy Kingdome or a Sarasaland track. That idea I am most hopeful for.

@@playerlgamer0592 I was more talking about nitro courses not returning ones. Season esc tracks Im fine with as there is much more one can do. Mount Wario for example is another winter track.

A Switch track would be cool, but I imagine it won't just be a rectangle path. Maybe you drive across the Joy-Cons as they float around in space too? And Nintendo's Switch games could make cameos on the screen, or appear as props.

[@a17yearoldonyoutubeluigi]

Not a bad prediction, my only note is I doubt that they would add both Dino Dino Jungle and DK Mountain, mainly for sharing music, I think with Waluigi Pinball that was the only exception they were willing to make, also doesn't make sense since these will literally be in back to back waves.

[@mailpaper7754]

I get that, but considering every Mario Kart game has had a pair of tracks that share music I don't see why this would ruin the chances of a track.

[@alexrobi1176]

I don't think DK Mountain is coming considering we will be getting Dino Dino Jungle and a DK track and we already have quite a lot of mountain tracks in the game. I think it will be Mushroom Bridge.

[@rebirthphoenix5646]

I think we’ll get an SNES Bowser’s Castle since there’s an ID gap for it so “technically” it’s datamined for Tour and could be in development for the BCP as well, plus it’s the most unique SNES track since we didn’t get a GBA Bowser’s Castle while Vanilla Lake would be similar to Snow Land and Koopa Beach being similar to Koopa Cape. GBA is obviously Sunset Wilds due to BCP leaks GCN imo has one shoe in with Daisy Cruiser. Both DK Mountain and Dino Dino Jungle unfortunately may not come back together but if I had to choose which is more likely, I’d say DK Mountain due to its recent addition to Tour and it playing perfectly for 8 Deluxe but not so much for Tour. The last GCN track would be either between Mushroom Bridge or Mushroom City because their cars exclusive to those tracks are datamined for Tour. I think Bridge is more likely to come than City due to its more simplistic layout and it could do with another remake after what we got in DS. Wii is most likely Koopa Cape (leaked for the BCP) and Wii Rainbow Road because it would fill the last slot of the BCP perfectly like how 3DS Rainbow Road finished off the first half of the DLC. Only reason I could see Dry Dry Ruins make a comeback is if they shaft a GCN track entirely (which I doubt) or they move the last Wii slot someplace else in Wave 6 so they have Dry Dry Ruins instead of Rainbow Road although I also doubt that. Tour easily will have Los Angeles Laps and Vancouver Velocity. Athens and Madrid seem likely although it’s still unconfirmed however the last Tour track I feel like could be based on Rio de Janeiro instead of Cairo due to there being another ID gap where a city track would be. Since they’re labeled alphabetically, it lands right on the Rs which Rio would fit the best in. Nitros really are up in the air. Piranha Plant Cove and the leaked Bathroom track are shoe ins but the other 2 really could be anything. MobDK could be a DK track but there’s no indications it is a DK track yet so it could be something completely different or hell in the off chance it is possible 2 out of the 4 nitros are placeholders for last minute retro track additions (which I doubt but I’d love to see Dry Dry Ruins and Airship Fortress snag these two spots).

[@CertifiedSoapEater]

The “DK” track can also be a track for New Donk City because it might be a theme that characters get released with tracks related to them, such as Birdo being released with Yoshi’s island and Petey piranha will be released with piranha plant cove. Pauline is most likely to come so having a track to match Pauline would allow them to more easily announce her

@@CertifiedSoapEater No, just no, New York Minute was literally made FOR. Tour, and New Donk City/Metro Kingdom would be *WAY* too close aesthetic-wise and maybe even layout-wise…

[@brandonkong4299]

I think we can we swap Piranha Plant Cove and the DK track especially since we’re getting characters and they’re likely being correlated with a specific nitro track, it’s why Waves 1-3 didn’t receive characters since Ninja Hideaway, Sky High Sundae & Merry Mountain don’t have any characters that fit those tracks, and since we’re likely getting at least characters in Wave 5 likely being Diddy & Funky

[@Floatingby441]

[@nathanbyberg]

[@Alxium]

I am firmly in the camp that the last SNES track will be Bowser's Castle 2/3. Vanilla lake is just not appealing enough. Both variants are just a fancy circle and we already have Snow Land.

[@UrRadioBoi18475]

just throwing it out there that BR might stand for Bowser's Raceway or the bathroom track might premier as a battle course which would be super cool.

[@magmarxiogaming6717]

one thing i don't see enough people talking about is that piranha plant cove might be one of the city tracks since it has railings for multiple layouts similarly to the other city tracks where as the actual nitros like ninja hideaway or merry mountain have much more linear track layouts.

[@WritingCountingOriginal]

So you mean it could take one of the “Tour” prefix slots. I thought about that too. I hope not to be honest, I love the real world cities

[@superflameking03]

While I seem to constantly get new reasons to doubt, I'm still hoping for Rio to come to Tour and then 8 Deluxe

[@The_Clanker]

I feel like Nintendo will pull something like with Smash ultimate where they claim to only add a few more characters. But they turned around and added even more So Nintendo may add the remaining tracks to MK8 deluxe since there isn’t too many left, they should be on the easier side to make and Nintendo likes money

[@playerlgamer0592]

That will literally not happen, you just gotta cope with the fact that we’re not getting tracks like, Airship Fortress, Delfino Square, Shy-Guy Bazaar, etc..

[@UrRadioBoi18475]

the Joy Con Junction course might get replaced by a Kirby course because all the Characters ON the select screen on the bottom row are not in or related the Mario which is why they are going to maybe add Kirby. Also every foreign character has a racetrack or battle course themed after them ( except for the Mii ) so they are probably going to add a new Kirby course

[@armandobarrios6530]

Wave 5 should have Daisy Cruiser instead of DD Jungle since it’s more of a summer themed track.

Great video but I do think that they won't release any battle tracks that are in the shape of a Switch. They didn't do it in Wii or 7 or Tour so I don't see it happening. I also think that they'll release the Tour tracks of Madrid and the other one around the same time Wave 5 hits. Personally wouldn't like to see the bathroom themed track and would like them to switch it to GCN Bowser's Castle instead, to throw off the leaks and to give us the GCN spot back (and keeping the other Wii track for Koopa Cape). Also I do think that Koopa Paratroopa and Petey Piranha are coming in Wave 5, with Diddy & Funky Kong in Wave 6. I could be wrong of course but that's something I think is more likely than 3 DK tracks.

[@gamerguywcello]

I think we’ll get Mushroom Bridge instead of DK Mountain because the way you predicted made it sound like there are a lot of jungle tracks in wave 6. Plus I think Mushroom Bridge might have been slightly datamined.

[@mailpaper7754]

That also hurts Mushroom Bridge though since its not really different from Shroom Ridge other than having a bridge and is way too simple for waves 5 and 6. If Mushroom Bridge was planned it would've more than likely been in waves 1 or 4.

[@spadspaph9229]

I think that two of the new tracks are actually placeholders for two retro tracks those being Ds airship fortress, and (reason: fan favorate) Gba yoshi desert (reason: every wave has had a gba track and yoshi desert is the only gba track left that does not clash with other tracks [exa: ghost valley and boo lake]) Both of these tracks are in tour so they are likely
