Ranking EVERY Mario Kart Wii Custom Track from February 2022! This also includes tracks that received major overhauls in this time frame as well as tracks from the end of January 2022 that were skipped last month. This is easily the longest scripted video I've ever made so please press the like button so it gets pushed out to more people lol I am begging you.

Please note that this list only tackles tracks published to the Wiiki and credits are based on the usernames from the Wiiki. Even if I know a creator goes by a different name, I will use the Wiiki name for simplicity. I check News 2022 as well as the New Pages special page every day for new tracks but there's always a chance that I'll miss something or skip an important update. In the video, I write the update my notes are based on along with the track name to minimise confusion.

In regards to “Empty Space” by Man-O-Wii, the official wiki for the track has a statement from the creator stating: “Hey all, as stated before this is my final track I intend to create, due to various circumstances regarding my place within the community. When I created this track, I had no intention of leaving the community, however I feel that it is somewhat poetic that this was to be my final track, considering it was intended to send a message rather than be the next big thing. The track was never intended to be great, and I think the length is proof of this, I wished for the track to be almost like a journey through the mind, and particularly the emotions I felt at the time and have felt since the departure from the community. While this track was initially created for a Custom Track Jam, I wish it to be considered a separate entity; it was a track that I regret putting into voting due to that really going against what I wanted the track to be in the first place. To everyone who I have spent these last two years creating with, thank you for the good times, and while the bad ultimately got the best of me in terms of my desire to create these tracks, I will remember this time fondly as I move onto other things. And as the track describes, please just take a second to think, and think hard about life itself. Reflect, remember, and relive, and consider yourself lucky for encountering this community. -Thanks, Man-O-Wii”

Squire definitely is the current MVP of custom tracks in 2022. I hope he carries on releasing absolutely gorgeous MK8 demakes for MKWii! Side note: the current trend of making SNES courses 3 laps instead of 5 is kinda disappointing. I'm with Troy when he says that these tracks should be 5 laps

I did cnk assembly lane in 2 minutes 11 seconds. On the first turn you stay really right and go slow after that you basically race normally until you get back to the turn in which you repeat. Kind of fun track to figure out(don’t trust me I have bad opinions). Also good video.

HOLY SHIT I GOT FIRST???????? I wouldve never expected that. I remember BroOFun asking me if we would have had a Chance at winning the jam if this Was submitted and I said it wouldve gotten 3rd at best. Seems like I underestimated it horribly.

Interstellar Laboratory’s space station looks much better than MK8 Rainbow Road’s. I think removing the rainbow flooring helped it feel more space station-y.

All I want is more tracks that work on slot 6.2 Stuck with a janky Bone dry Dunes remake, and the one with the bird’s-eye-view camera glitch

[@NuoKart]

Waterway is a good one. I think I'm remembering the name right.

[@WaltzSunshine]

I think that’s because slot 6.2 is GBA Shy Guy Beach, for a track to function in this slot it must have the object HeyhoShip, if it doesn’t have that object tracks will just crash.

[@joshdutton4899]

@@WaltzSunshine Yeah exactly, trouble is it’s hard to find tracks with HeyhoShip; Shy Guy Archipelago and Waterway are the best we have Slot 6.1 requiring Ice object is luckily easier, but not by much

@@joshdutton4899 I feel like HeyhoShip and HeyhoBall objects are really under utilize in custom track making since you rarely see them being use in a creative manner

[@Flairisfair]

Something i didn't say on premiere, Interstellar laboratory is so fun on formula kart. We played it yesterday and on ramp up it was so much fun. A few of the turns get harder on higher CC's but there a 2 fun feather shortcuts to make up for it. Can't wait for more ._. and brooffun shenanigans

I checked the wiiki, it says Peppermint Peaks came out at the start of Jan. I don't cover updates unless they majorly change the track or I just want to talk about them. It looks like there were a lot of QoL updates but I wasn't sure if it was new enough to include. Otherwise I would have to include every updated track and it would be too much to edit too fast :p

Alright I have basically no nostalgia for any of the SNES tracks and think most of them are pretty boring, but I really am not a fan of that SNES Mario Circuit track that basically changed everything about the track to the point that its unrecognizable, but then keeps the original title. It feels wrong to me to pass it off as a retro when it shares almost nothing with its original counterpart.

[@NuoKart]

It has the exact same layout as MC2 except scaled smaller and with a couple of boost panels :p

[@FirstLast-mn4re]

@@NuoKart Thats about the only thing it shares though is the mini map. Is it an objectively better track? Probably. Does it look and feel like the same track though? Not at all. And for that reason I think its kind of wrong to call it a retro track. I have similar feelings toward the official Mario Kart 8 versions of Cheese Land and Ribbon Road. They're better tracks overall, but they feel almost nothing like their original counterparts.

[@adampoole5204]

Hey Mayro, nice regular custom tracks they made which is fabulous, one more thing about Formula Kart Wii, custom game mode made by CLF78, Ismay, it should disserves to be in CTGP Revolution, but unfortunately, this crap sucker doesn't even work what's so whatever, when I recently put it in the CTGP my stuff folder, test it on Nintendo tracks, nothing shows up, and also, it crashed the game, previously, right after I chose normal custom tracks, so I'm assuming that, everyone is going to have to ask, comment, talk to MrBean35000vr named Robert, and his brother Chaddarz named Alex, to see if they could try harder to add it in the CTGP channel on CTGP settings, online and offline to get it to function correctly with it, I really wanted to try it, it's so a miracle.

@@NuoKart they are, hmm didn't mention about it, but thanks for telling me it, one question when is DS Rainbow Road gonna be added in CTGP, ZPL was saying that their gonna add it in it, it's been taking quite the longest time, the track he remade was a different space model layout of regular the Nintendo Wii Rainbow Road, differences from the original version, he removed the loops and crowscrew, replaced them as ramps, loop ramp, crowscrew ramp, you know, they do not function correctly, plus the game doesn't even allow players to drive upside down at all, if they try to move sideways with a lack of camera, hitting walls, I'll make them fall or fly off in deep space, not like the MKDS version, it's completely different, so I'm praying 🙏for it to be added in CTGP.
