Will We Be Getting Even MORE Waves in the Booster Course Pass?

#mariokart #nintendo #mariokart8deluxe #boostercoursepass
__________________________________________________
So this may be a long shot, but it's possible that Nintendo is going to release MORE waves of the booster course pass after wave 6! In this video, I speculate about how this could happen, what I think should and shouldn't be in the waves, and what this could mean for the future of the Mario Kart franchise as a whole!

Do you think we're getting a part two of the Booster Course Pass?

[@Flegz1]

I think we're getting part two.

[@Flegz1]

Random question: has the Discord server been created yet or you still working on it?

[@GameBlock_]

@@Flegz1 still working on it. It’ll probably come out at some point this summer. I haven’t had a whole lot of time to work on it and I want it to be the best it can be when it’s released

[@JRS06]

Possibly. There are still many more tracks in Tour or datamined such as Yoshi Desert, Ghost Valley 3 and Delfino Square.

[@theriumsino2456]

I think yes. Hoping they will put gcn rainbow road, alongside Tiny kong

[@richardyork2626]

I think there may be 3 extra waves, not 6. That would take the total number of tracks up to an even 120. It would also mean they could release one character with each remaining wave and fill in the gaps on the current board. And it would take the game up to the end of 2024, after which I'd imagine they will be planning the release of a new console in 2025. Was actually thinking about this the other day - the inclusion of Mario Circuit DS in wave 4 is bizarre considering there are hugely popular DS tracks such as Airship Fortress and Delfino Square. Really seems like something they wouldn't do unless they were trying to spread the content out a little.

[@GameBlock_]

That would make a lot of since, especially your point about the DS tracks! Thanks for watching!!

[@VW3059-Studio]

Add more waves , then more retro tracks are included in the pass

[@JRS06]

We need every single track from Super Mario Kart to Mario Kart 7 added through the Booster Course Pass. It would make Mario Kart 8 the true ultimate Mario Kart celebrating the whole series.

[@GameBlock_]

I feel like the different variants of the SNES tracks don’t necessarily need to be added (like Mario circuits 1,2, and 4 since we already have 3) but I feel like the track design in Mario Kart 7 is some of the best in the series, and I’d love to see all those tracks added! Thanks for watching!!

[@tolstartheking]

Wario Shipyard and Maka Wuhu are the two courses from 7 that I really want.

[@YoshiKnight]

That would be awesome!!!!!

[@ryanbarnett5805]

That would be the ultimate track selection

[@all-stargamer3333]

That will never happened.

[@muffins901]

I think they specified 1-6 because some people might have thought that the 48 courses were in total of both the base game and the booster course pass. I've learned from silksong not to get my hopes up and I think that's the best idea for here too

[@GameBlock_]

That’s a really good point. Still, I’m going to be hopeful! (I can never really help getting my hopes up about Nintendo stuff, even things I know are unlikely to near-impossible 😂) Thanks for watching!!

[@italianbaptist]

My guess is we’ll get one more wave - a final cup to make the racetracks an even 100, and then either 4 or 8 new battle courses.

[@GameBlock_]

That would be sick! I’m not sure how the 1 new cup would fit into the cup selection screen, but an even 100 tracks would be nice. Also I’d love to see some new battle courses! Thanks for watching!!

[@pokefanalex9504]

@@GameBlock_ My thoughts are if they did that maybe have one new screen that has just the one in the middle with maybe a bunch of cool Special stuff like showing all the trophies or characters all watching you select it

[@tolstartheking]

@@pokefanalex9504 It would probably be the Rainbow Cup with the final track being either Double Dash Rainbow Road, DS Rainbow Road, or Super Circuit Rainbow Road.

[@TheBenjaman]

​@@pokefanalex9504 perhaps have next to that final cup in the menu some more cups that are all the tour tracks in one cup or a rainbow road cup. Maybe soem backways cups would be interesting

[@brazilianpanda4691]

@@tolstartheking what if it was the rainbow cup and it had all three of those plus a new nitro rainbow road at the end to finish the whole dlc off and the main dlc ends with Wii rainbow road so we have every rainbow road and two nitros in 8 deluxe

[@MrYee-xf6ze]

I don't mind more waves in the BCP, but I'm good with a total of 48 courses in 6 waves.

[@GameBlock_]

That’s pretty much exactly how I feel as well. I’d love more waves, but 96 courses total in MK8D is more than enough for me. Thanks for watching!!

[@AftraxEdits]

Theory: 1. We'll be getting 3 more waves. I know this is a Random shot in the Dark but hear me out. 3 More Waves mean 6 more cups, 6 more cups mean 24 courses. NOW: In the 3D Mario Series for example in the base 3D Mario Games that means: -SM64 -SMS -SMG1 To beat these games 100% you needed to collect 120 stars/shines (not including the SMG1 Green Star, Bonus Stars) Now if we calculate 96 Tracks with 24 Tracks it will equal 120!! So, why leave this big oppurtunity begun with a number, that wrote so much History in the Mario Universe? It would be a waste of an oppurtunity. 2. The MK8DX's Cup outlines. The Base Game Cups have a Golden Outline. The BCP Cups have a Silver Outline. So, why dont make the BCP Vol.2 Cup Outline Bronze or maybe Diamond? 3. The Cup Images Nintendo has akways used Item as Cup Images. But a very Important Item hasnt been used as a Cup Logo yet. The Crazy Eight. We all know, that MK8DX will probably be the Definitive Mario Kart l, because Nintendo will not top MK8DX if they'll do a MK9/10. That would mean, that the new MK will flop due to why buy the newest version when the older version is way better? Because of that 8 think, that the Crazy Eight should be the final cup of MK8DX because it would be a better fitting ending for the MK8DX series. I MEAN IT'S THE 8. 4. Enough place Nintendo can easily develop a new screen for the BCP Vol.2 tracks. Maybe a Golden Background? 👀 5. There are still retro tracks left for the Future of MK. If we would get an another BCP with 3 additional Waves there Would still be around 24 or more Retro Tracks left to pick from for MK9/10. Conclusion: There is always a possibilty. I mean Smash Bros. had a Fighter Pass Vol.2, so why cant MK8DX have the same treatment?

[@GameBlock_]

Those are all amazing points! It would be so cool to have a total of 120 courses! Thanks for watching!!

[@endstoneninja3845]

8:19 this didn’t age well, because moon view highway is coming to 8 deluxe in the next wave!

[@worldsboss]

The other, and in my opinion more likely, explanation for why they added the “waves 1-6” in that logo was to show that there are other courses in MK8 besides the 48 in the booster course pass. There are 48 courses in vanilla MK8 Deluxe, plus another 48 in the DLC, so that’s what I think they’re getting at here. I don’t expect any more waves after this. Would love to be proven wrong though!

[@GameBlock_]

That’s a really good point. Like I said, more waves is definitely a long shot! I just had some fun speculating about them. Still, I’m hoping Nintendo does end up adding more courses as well! Thanks for watching!!

[@RiftComix]

I really hope there isn’t more than 6 waves. If they do add more, it will further cement itself as the “ultimate mario kart” pushing back Mario kart 9.

[@GameBlock_]

I feel like Mario kart 9 will need to be a sort of reboot of the franchise as it is, given how Nintendo just can’t conceivably top 8 deluxe, so I feel like a sort of “ultimate” Mario Kart is the best way to send off this era of the franchise. Thanks for watching!!

[@burgerbonkerqueenmsp9761]

we dont need mario kart 9, and besides; if nintendo was even THINKING about mario kart 9, we wouldnt have gotten 48 new tracks for MK8D

[@harrybest2041]

Only the American version of the trailer was updated to specify 6 waves. All other versions of the trailer stayed the same. I don't think another Booster Course Pass will happen. By the end of 2023, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe will have almost 5x more courses than Mario Kart: Super Circuit, the most in the series.

[@GameBlock_]

I never knew that was just in the American trailer, that’s really interesting to know! I personally don’t think it’s likely we’ll get more waves, which is partially why I said it was a long shot, but I have a lot of fun speculating about it! Thanks for watching!!

[@goalhornstudios8426]

2 things 1: I'd be happy if this happened, this means more Mario kart content 2: Mario kart 9 is practically a myth if this happened

[@GameBlock_]

Yeah, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is at this point the game that’ll never die 😂 Thanks for watching!!

[@deli7328]

Mario Kart 9 is technically Mario Kart Tour, but MK9 won't be out soon... Right now they are focusing on MK8D and MKT content.

[@IanDoesFilm]

They did this with the Mario Movie, right before they pushed the movie up to April 5th, the posters said "Only In Theaters April" instead of "Only In Theaters April 7th"

[@GameBlock_]

That’s a great point! Thanks for watching!!

[@CysmaWinheim]

Even if this isn't the case, I could live with "just" 96 racetracks. Most racing games are lucky to have even a fraction of that amount.

[@LaySuperMarioLover]

Just... NO. I think Nintendo should be making an entirely new Mario Kart, hard reboot or not. They can't milk 8 Deluxe forever. Imagine -- in 2025 or something, we'd be playing the SAME game from all the way back in 2014! They have to end SOMEWHERE, otherwise they'd run out of Retro Tracks to put into an ACTUAL new entry in the series.

[@GameBlock_]

That is a good point, but I feel like the next entry in the series will be on the next Nintendo console. This means either way we’ll probably still be playing the same Mario kart in 2025 as we were in 2014. Trust me when I say I REALLY want the next Mario kart, but I just don’t think it’s coming that soon. And because I think a soft reboot is necessary, it makes sense to me for Nintendo to make 8DX a sort of “Mario Kart Ultimate”, and I think retros could be in consecutive games, so it’s not like Nintendo will “run out” of them. I could be completely wrong though! Thanks for watching!!

[@elkarlo1593]

Toad Circuit is another reason to cut Figure 8 Circuit, due to it being a strikingly similar layout, but with a wedge and some Mushroom shortcuts, wich makes the track the superior version of the two. And same for Wii Mario Circuit, wich is yet again a Figure 8 with a wedge and mushroom shortcuts

[@GameBlock_]

That makes a lot of sense. I really like Wii Mario circuit, so I hope it isn’t cut, but I could definitely see that being cut along with figure-8 circuit.

[@NunnyNugget]

Not me looking at the title and misunderstanding it just thinking “oh damn imagine if they released waves 5 and 6 that’d be crazy”

[@GameBlock_]

Sorry if I made the title a bit unclear, I honestly thought exactly this might happen when I was naming the video 😂 Thanks for watching!!

[@Drewhardin96]

I think it’d be cool if they made something like a story mode where you have to race through every track and have boss battles and stuff

[@GameBlock_]

I would LOVE to see that added! I feel like that’s something that could be in the next Mario kart, but if it was added to 8DX that’d be sick! Thanks for watching!!

[@endstoneninja3845]

@@GameBlock_they should do it like CTR (crash team racing), where you race solo against the boss who has special unbalanced items to make things difficult.

you realize that in the announcement trailer in the February 2022 direct used the "waves 1-6" thing in the red circle

[@GameBlock_]

I just checked, and that’s not the case, though I just noticed it does say that on the ending screen in the blue circle! Thanks for letting me know, and thanks for watching!!

[@SuperEpicness]

@@GameBlock_ it was one of those, I couldn't remember exactly this wasn't the first time they did this, but still, this video was good, and even made me think that maybe, it could happen. keep up the good work

[@SuperJGGaming]

Surprisingly, this same text was in the BCP announcement trailer too, so I’m not too sure they will add more! You never know

[@GameBlock_]

I just noticed that because of another comment. It’s somewhat strange to me still that Nintendo decided to specify waves 1-6 in the beginning of the trailer for wave 4, given it only said that at the end of previous trailers. I guess we’ll just have to see what Nintendo decides to do! Thanks for watching!!

[@noomanemrf1379]

Before the volume 2 they really need to fix the wave 1 that looks horrible next to wave 4. And they better add new/old battle tracks and new karts too

[@GameBlock_]

Some new battle tracks would be sick! As for the older waves not looking so great, I don’t really have that much of a problem with them anymore, but I’d appreciate some new textures. Thanks for watching!!

[@Randomguy-oe2qy]

I’m having so much fun with Mario kart 8 deluxe that I honestly would love if they kept giving us dlc for this game

[@GameBlock_]

Same! I’m perfectly happy with MK8D being the switch’s main Mario Kart, and I’d love to see it get more content until the next console is announced, which will probably have the next Mario kart on it. Thanks for watching!!

[@papyrussemi2848]

I'm saying more are coming, not because of this, but because 8DX absolutely prints money.

[@GameBlock_]

That's a great point 😂 Nintendo is making a LOT of money off of this game. Thanks for watching!!

[@HgordoX]

My Guess is we will get a Booster Course Pass 2 for Retros. "no Tour tracks" they can be ported from Tour i dont care about that but i want Retros Not Tour citys. "for the wii course i think Moonview Highway should be kept and Luigi Circuit (Wii) Should be cut instead".

[@GameBlock_]

Yeah, I could definitely see Luigi Circuit being cut instead because of how simple its layout is. Thanks for watching!!

[@RacingSnails64]

I would 100% buy a second BCP!!! Tour still has so many courses that are worth porting over.

[@GameBlock_]

I completely agree! At this point, I feel like the most we’d get is an additional cup to give the game 100 tracks, but even then there are some tour courses that I’d love to see included in that! Thanks for watching!!

[@Kinstage]

i think its pretty likely, especially since MK8 deluxe is the switch's top selling game

[@GameBlock_]

That’s a great point! More DLC would probably make Nintendo a LOT of money. Thanks for watching!!

[@aloeverawater6125]

i honestly think this has a high % chance of happening because of the leaks of where the track is from and tour keeps adding tracks that probably wouldn’t make it to this dlc but a volume 2 of it, like you said with smash. I really hope that’s the case because id love to see dry dry ruins, toad’s factory and a snes bowser castle. Fingers crossed because this sounds interesting but im keeping my expectations low.

[@GameBlock_]

Yeah, one of the main reasons I decided to make this video is because some tracks have now been announced for tour (like dry dry ruins) that because of leaks for the current DLC wouldn’t make it into MK8D. I feel like it would make since for Nintendo to add more waves in order to get these tracks into the game. That’s just all speculation though! Thanks for watching!!

[@nickbiglin2924]

While I agree that smash could definitely see a soft reboot for its next entry, I think Mario Kart still has potential to be squeezed out of it with track design and new mechanics. I think more DLC waves would be neat, but I’d rather a new game first on a more powerful console. You could save the ‘ultimate’ factor with most of the tracks returning for a system that would allow for an overhaul on all the tracks’ visuals. Also, personally I think Mushroom City is a more interesting track than bridge. It would be the only city track from a fictional city, which I think is enough to make it stand out on its own.

[@GameBlock_]

Yeah, I guess we’ll just have to see what Nintendo does with the franchise! Also, I’d be happy with either mushroom bridge or city, since they share the same amazing music! Thanks for watching!!

[@SmashSSL]

I think an additional cup to round up the 100 tracks nicely isn't too far fetched

[@GameBlock_]

That would make a lot of sense! Thanks for watching!!

[@Lukeishness]

Oh I think its super likely well be getting more waves. I see zero reason for Nintendo to stop. If this is making them money I see it as something to focus on

[@GameBlock_]

That’s a great point! More tracks would probably make Nintendo a LOT of money! Thanks for watching!!

[@endstoneninja3845]

I love Mario Kart 7, so if they add more waves, I’d love to see tracks from it like Maka Wuku, Bowser’s Castle, Wario Shipyard and Rosalina’s ice world return. Honey Queen would be a good addition too, since she’s the only MK7 character missing from MK8.

[@GameBlock_]

I'd love to see some more MK7 tracks! In my opinion, that game had some of the best track design in the series! Thanks for watching!!

[@WatchDoggyDog]

this would be so epic, and they DID change that graphic, quite a video worthy detail really! seems unlikely, but a fun speculation video, well done :) 👏👏

[@GameBlock_]

Glad you enjoyed the video! Thanks for watching!!

they could because tour still has a lot of tracks, battle tracks, characters and items that aren’t in mario kart 8

@@GameBlock_ i’m not counting on new city tracks or new nitros being added to tour after this year… but new retro tracks and new battle tracks (maybe even nitros) will definitely keep being added

[@justthenamekevin]

recently this is more true then ever… too many good tracks in tour and not enough room in the booster course pass!!!

[@oktaykiuseler5348]

I would love to see 48 more courses in 8 deluxe but what i also want is that the graphics of the dlc will be uptaded to the ones used in base 8. I know this is a topic that has been forgotten for a long time ajd no one talks about it anymore but it would still be great becaus you have tracks like rive side park that has amezing graphics and then you have Amsterdam drift that doesn't really look that nice. I still like the dlc but it would be nice little change to make the game look better.

[@GameBlock_]

Yeah, overall I think Nintendo is making the DLC tracks look a lot better, but the consistency within each wave with the graphics isn’t really there. I hope in waves 5 & 6 the all the tracks look on par with the base game, but at the very least the gameplay and music of most of the tracks have still been phenomenal, even if the graphics weren’t. Thanks for watching!!

[@alligator0520]

I would love to see that, there are a lot of course that are considered as fan favorites! I think that they really want to make MK8DX as the ultimate version on Switch and wait ‘til they announce another gen console

[@GameBlock_]

I fully agree! While it’s technically not a new game, 8DX has done so much to differentiate itself from the original MK8 that I’m happy with it being the switch’s main Mario kart and getting so much content before what I think to be an inevitable soft-reboot of the franchise. Thanks for watching!!

[@GameBlock_]

I feel like if there were more waves they’d mostly be retros, but some new tracks would be amazing! Thanks for watching!!

[@hypotheticaltapeworm]

What I think happened is that the graphic that says "Waves 1-6" was an alternative that got scrapped in favor of the one that says "Booster Course" because of the very reason it implies there's more to come. I think they used the old graphic by accident.

[@GameBlock_]

I hope that's not the case and we do get more waves, but that would make a lot of sense. I guess we'll just have to wait until the wave 5 trailer to see if it was actually an accident. Thanks for watching!!

@@GameBlock_ another 6 waves would be cool though, because you're right, Mario Kart 9 would not have the opportunity to have so many tracks.

To be fair, it’s not THAT much of a long shot. Sure it’s a lot of work but they’ve gotten so much hubbub and money from the booster course pass that it’s not unreasonable to say that they’d want to keep this money train going.

A possible way I could see Nintendo completely changing up the Mario Kart formula is bringing back the two drivers mechanic from Double Dash and if done right, it could become more successful than MK8D even with the BCP.

Maybe tracks from the arcade games could be added to kind of fill in positions such as the tour tracks in the first pass?

[@GameBlock_]

That would be super cool! I would hope the layouts are changed a bit, since there aren’t many shortcuts in those tracks and there are a lot of straightaways, but overall I’d love the arcade tracks to make a return! Thanks for watching!!

[@danielfotheringhamproducti7368]

Honestly, I’m not sure. Yes, it would be impressive to increase the track total to 144, a number only achieved via Rom hacking, but on the other hand, they’ll have to reboot the franchise if they want to keep it going, use Unreal Engine 4 or 5, figure something out, all of that. And if we do get some final details, they also need to add alternate costumes, new Kart parts, two of which I’m including the Wild Wing, and Sprinter or B Dasher Mk. 2 from Wii, and also more battle stages to bring the total to a possible 16! Or if they add 4 more after, 20!

[@GameBlock_]

Honestly, I feel with 96 courses Nintendo will basically have to reboot the franchise anyway, so I think it’s reasonable to speculate they’ll go all out. Some new costumes and kart parts would be sick as well! Thanks for watching!!

[@gageadams5469]

[@anthonyfoco6396]

If that were the case,I think that some new tracks would be super sick,especially since there are other tracks that could be cut honestly. I'm talking mainly about raceaways and circuits;I mean,we would have another 4 Mario Circuits,4 Luigi Circuits,1 Peach Circuit and 1 Daisy Circuit. That's way too much,so there would need to be even more cutting. -N64 Luigi Raceaway is a worse GCN Luigi Circuit,so that would be cut,GBA Luigi Circuit can stay because it's based and is unique -GBA Peach Circuit is lame -GCN Mario Circuit and WII Mario Circuit are literally the same,so one would be cut; while i have nostalgia for the GCN one,I think realistically Nintendo would pick WII Mario Circuit -WII Luigi Circuit is also lame and it's a worse GCN Luigi Circuit(again) -3DS Mario Circuit is too similiar to the DS one that we already have,so that's another cut In total we would have 28 cut tracks,but that's not it. -N64 Frappe Snowland would have an aesthetic too similiar to the one of GCN Sherbet Land,but to be fair N64 Sherbet Land is also pretty bland,but one of them should be cut -N64 DK's Jungle Parkaway is too similiar to GBA Riverside Park -N64 Wario Stadium is too similiar to DS Wario Stadium(I mean they have the same name too) -GBA Lakeside Park and GBA Broken Pier would be cut since they are too similiar to Riverside and Boo Lake,who are already in the 1st half of the pass -GBA Shy Guy Beach and GCN Peach Beach would definetely be cut in favor of GBA Cheep Cheep Island and GCN Daisy Cruiser -3DS Cheep Cheep Lagoon and DS Desert Hills are lame -One of the Wuhu tracks would be cut in favor of the other,so we would probably get Maka Wuhu -Ok,I know we have a serious lack of Bowser Castles,but GCN and WII are way too similiar to be in the same game,so one of them would be cut In total we have 39 tracks that would not make the cut,that could be replaced with new tracks,or maybe tracks from the arcade games. Koopa Troopa Beach and Banshee Boardwalk could also be added to the list,but I think that they're just different enough compared to Koopa Beach 2 and Boo Lake that they could make it.

[@GameBlock_]

I feel like a lot of those courses definitely could be cut, and it’d be super cool to see some more new tracks! I will say that I think the GCN and Wii Mario Circuits/Bowser’s castles aren’t too similar to one another, but I could definitely still see one being cut over the other. Also I completely forgot about broken pier and lakeside park, so those could for sure take some of the cut spots. (Though I really do want lakeside to be remade just for the music to be brought back in MK8’s style) Thanks for watching!!

[@user-xo3hw6bb9k]

I wouldn’t see them taking out 3DS Mario Circuit due to that being in Tour and it’s way different from DS Mario Circuit. N64 Luigi Raceway can stay removed.

[@williamsdj6175]

if there would be another 6 waves, I would cut out GBA bowser castle and replace it with moonview highway. I personally feel like GBA bowser castle is more similar to bowser castle tracks than moonview highway with city tracks.

[@GameBlock_]

That does make a lot of sense. I feel if the GBA one got some elevation changes and the SNES one didn’t, I think it would be justified in not being cut, but otherwise not. Also, I recently realized because of some comments that GBA broken pier could get cut because of how similar it is to boo lake, so moonview could take that spot! Thanks for watching!!

While I definitely think it’s possible there’s a new console at the end of this year, I feel like next year or maybe even 2025 is more likely, so I think it makes sense to keep giving the switch’s main mario kart game more content until the next console with the next game.

[@QnjtGWonQNqVsbYyzjx4]

I don’t think mk8 is lasting forever, especially booster course pass content is still pull from tours, even that Yoshi’s island track and birdo. Plus, I think I can expand upon MK8 content and add new dynamic gameplay. I would like to see half-pipe, mission mode and a double dash game mode to be back in Mario Kart 9. It will be the final send off of this era of Mario Kart. Possible new gameplay features can be sky driving section with hoverkart(I don’t see an entire game build around this, limited to some sections only indicated by purple pads.) and drilling soft dirt found in tracks for little shortcut(maybe some drill have slow drilling and some have faster, faster drillings mean reduction in driving speed). Item wise, keep a lot of them from 8, all character specific item from double dash not in 8 can be back, like the bowser shell or giant banana, bring some from tour like ice flower, item cannons, hammers and giga bob-omb. For new items, the cloud flower create three cloud which block the racer, the acorn which let you trick and boost mid-air and the double cherry which clone yourself and double the items. Brought back the mega mushroom and the super leaf, with latter having a invincible one that just let you invincible until you caught up the front. Finally, the propeller mushroom which boost you really high and you start gliding, exclusive for battle mode. For character, funky Kong, Pauline, king bob-omb, hammer Bros, monty mole, goomba, honey queen, Diddy Kong, Dixie Kong, Pianta, Petey Piranha and Luma would be cool. This time around it will be 48 tracks like base 8 deluxe, with more in the future. For Battle mode, they can make a Battle Royale mode and maybe capture the flag. Maybe shine runner is back but renamed to star runner to distinct it from shine theft. Untimed balloon battle and possibly expand bob-omb blastoff with more item like shell or bananas. Kart customisation is great for pros but there should be some preset combinations and maybe saves too.

[@GameBlock_]

That sounds like it would be amazing for the next Mario kart entry!

The only way i see this happening is literally moving everything from Tour to MK8D for 2024. I do not see any other scenarios. So whatever remains in Charaters Alts and courses. I think another 48 courses is almost unthinkable. However another 16 - 24 is more reasonable.
