ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 30 ก.ย. 2022
- Mario Kart 8 deluxe is the by far most sold game on the nintendo switch. While that obviously means it’s really good, in fact it’s my favorite mario kart game, that doesn’t mean it’s perfect. So in today's video I’m going to be covering my nitpicks for Mario kart 8 Deluxe along with picking some from the comments as well! These range from characters, items, battle mode, racing, the booster course pass dlc and more. So join me as I cover some of my nitpicks for mario kart 8 deluxe!

Ok so I literally just remembered another nitpick, I think it'd be cool if the game told you your time after finishing a race like it did in past games. Definitely would've included this one in the video if I remembered
time trials
This is the quintessential nitpick for this game. Hilarious it wasn’t included in the video lol
Eh that's true
yes, multiplayer time trials would be cool (no items setting, no cpus)
Oh yeah I completely agree with this, sometimes I feel like I won or lost with a .01 seconde difference but I can't see it
Biggest annoying thing about this game is being online and getting hit by someone else's dragged item because you were within 50 feet of them.
Or worse, getting hit by nothing at all.
-Opponent is one position ahead of you
-throws red shell forward
-it hits you
@@shujinkoMK Wot
@@possumorb3770 there are lots of people who get hit by their own red shells because in wifi it lags forward sometimes
I lime coin runners
13:37 Our wish has now been granted!!
I love that they’ve added this to the game, as this adds so much more replayability and flexibility to the racing experience!
Also, I can now get rid of that pesky lighting shock when I play!!
Pro tip: Don't make the blue shell the only item...
Although I really hope they add an option of "Normal Chances" and "Equal Chances" so If you have say, blue shells and bananas, you can select equal chances to get 50/50 on each item, rather than it basically being Bananas only
9:05 Our other wish has been granted! Thank God lighting was nerfed!
@@Diane_Lynam--2023 it's so funny though
Still no option for 3 or 5 races; really wish we could pick any number from 2 to 10.
SO MANY OF THESE GOT FIXED! That’s awesome! Birdo is added, you can choose your own items, etc.!
"So many" literally only like 3 of these were fixed dude calm down
@@maniacaal just wait…
@@maniacaal🤓
huh, nobody ever commented on the lack of challenge modes like in DS. the boss battles and event races in that mode were fun, i miss that mode.
And they can even do like weekly challenges and leaderboards with the missions
That Is a wish-list for a game not a nitpick
@@YoshWilbur it existed in prior games, people enjoyed it in prior games, its lack in this game being a missing feature is a nitpick. what are you on about
@@ClaimSuit A nitpick is something minor, an entire mode not being In a game isn't a nitpick more of something that you want in the game. However it can be a nitpick if you where saying something like "8 Deluxe dosent have alot of Game Modes" because then it is more opened and just something that your being picky about because that I'd what nitpicks are.
@@YoshWilbur alright, so by your own definition me adding onto the missing gamemode discussion isnt a nitpick because its not the whole argument (which is covered in the video) in a comment a mile and a half long... do you not see that itself isnt an argument against anything ive said.
I think the reason Tour tracks like Ninja Hideaway and Sky High Sundae aren’t labeled is because they aren’t based on real life cities and don’t give off the feeling of a world tour.
I thought Sky High Sunday *was* an original track while Ninja Hideaway wasnt? The fact that it’s inconsistent is weird.
@@Danvilism sky high sundae was made for tour but happened to be in 8 first
@@videogamahagain it showed up in Tour about a week later or less
@@videogamahagain I had assumed it was the other way around (I thought ninja hideaway was planned for 8 deluxe but was ready for tour first)
@HFJOfficial I mean it was made for tour
I hate how red shells follow you through flying areas in the game, and it’s almost impossible to make a turn around a wall and have it break like in mkwii
Right! Like, you should get a break from a red shell if you go through a cannon or a massive ramp. Red shells in this game are so aggressive about finding their target.
That's what I hate about Wii. Makes red shells literally useless
@@Lordbeerus0901 that’s completely untrue, they still hit like 90% of the time
@@seamino8329 Lmao no. Simply running into a wall gets rid of a red shell. And every track has a sharp turn, so you can always escape it.
But they balance it out by having more powerful items like stars and bullet bills that hit you backwards
@@Lordbeerus0901 not true lol
I wish they gave you the option to remove some items from the rotation, the Blue Shell gets particularly annoying at times
And if not, add "No spiny shells", "No coins" and "No spiny shells or coins" as options, and while at it, fix "Mushrooms only" and add "Mushrooms and coins only" as an option.
Yeah I feel like an item switch like Super Smash Bros might help tremendously for custom matches
@@TheSocialZombie Agreed! It could be very cool!
Oh wait just realized someone in the video mentioned that already oops 😅
@@TheSocialZombie Well that person is very smart
8:30 In the recent Nintendo Direct when they previewed tracks we actually saw that one of the new tracks is getting anti gravity in a similar way to the base game (aka one part of the track is anti-grav in a spot that makes sense and you switch while racing) so anti-gravity is seemingly going to be better utilized with future tracks
5:19 I agree, And they should make a double dash sequel because in that game, you can actually switch which powerup you want to used In whichever order.
And the characters had specific power ups per character. DD was the best!
The return of the Bowser shell
@@dyskordianwho's that
@@supersmashseandx1991 .... double dash my man lol
@@verde7595 oh. Yeah that makes sense. Wow I feel dumb
We definitely need more characters, specifically costumes. (I REALLY want to see a purple or grey shy guy.)
EDIT: Also thanks for including my comment, I've been feeling very sick lately and that made my day so much better!
PURPLE GUY?!
(aka the man behind the slaughter)
What that the bite of 87’?!
Why he ourple???
We need Chef Shy Guy
finally, somebody appreciates gray shy guys, even though they are litterally only mentioned in Mario Super Sluggers and a couple of Yoshi games.
This video adged so well, with now anti gravity in the booster course pass and items you can turn on and off!
And Birdo will be coming to the game in the next wave!
I’m glad that a lot of these things are actually being improved on like lightning while gliding, custom items and DLC characters
Surprised no one mentioned versus races max course count not being upped to account for the dlc. This is one i rlly hope gets fixed by the time the dlc is finished bc it'll suck if i cant play a 96 course session with every track once the dlc pass is complete
Only thing I can assume is that they don't want to be responsible for someone completing 96 courses in one sitting, which would probably take around 5-6 hours (and the undocked Switch battery wouldn't be able to last that long, even starting at 100%). It would still be a great option, though, especially after the final wave of DLC comes out.
Maybe they do it for your own health. Don't play 96 races in a row, that's insane.
Mario Kart 8 was originally locked to 32 races, even with the additional DLC. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe increased this to 48 when the DLC was included.
But now with all the extra DLC, they still aren't increasing the max number for each releaes (56, 64, 72, 80, 88, 96).
Perhaps they can't bother making this number dynamic based on if you had the DLC or not; perhaps they didn't add 48 to Mario Kart 8 originally because they couldn't bother checking if you had all DLC.
So if they ever made a Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Plus release, with all 96 tracks included, then you will likely be able to choose 96.
The angry Mario walk transition is just 👌
(1:20) Since -most- all tracks are identical, I think there should be an option for mirror mode on time trial, but the times count towards the same normal track. -For the few tracks that are actually different in mirror mode, the should have a separate time for that mode.-
Which ones are different?
no tracks are different
@@manfredi19 thought that, that’s because I asked
theres no tracks that are different in mirror mode lol
I guess Toad's Turnpike doesn't have the traffic going the other way no more
My nitpicks:
- You can't return back to the characters, settings or tracks on the Versus mode. You have to go all the way back to the menus to select those.
- Characters should flash after hitting the items. There are some invincibility frames after hits and it looks so stupid if the item hits soon after and it doesn't do anything.
This was great, I love how engaged you are with the community
You’re barely 2 minutes in wdym lmao
they better do it
Wave 3's graphics look even better than Wave 2, _and_ Merry Mountain not only has some anti-gravity section (not an entire race), it also sees the return of the half pipes, which are trickable.
Same with maple treeway
Wave 4's graphics look even better than Wave 3, and Waluigi Stadium not only has some anti-gravity sections, (not an entire race), it also sees the return of the half pipes, which are trickable.
Wave 5's graphics look even better than...
Wave 6's gr...
@@Obbels You... haven't by any chance actually played Maple Treeway, or Merry Mountain have you? You know the two courses that saw the return of the half pipes, which are trickable?
both ninja hideaway and sky high sundae were made for tour first. the files for both have been in tour for a few years now, no track has been made exclusively for 8D booster pack. they were all developed for tour and later ported.
Anything that isn’t an original track in Tour was ported from 7 to Tour
12:06
Their wish has been granted
Okey but my hope is that one update will allow 8 players with 2 switches.
Also a battle mode update
"Your brother doesn't cheat its an intentional mechanic" 🤓
When you watch this after wave 3 and realise "oh sh*t, they actually added custom items"
Oh and also
The fact Birdo has just been announced
I highly doubt that Ninja Hideaway was made for the booster course because it came around a year earlier in Tour
16:40 yeah, but imagine little timmies drawing “inappropriate” things on their carts!
Fax
What I really dislike about the item system is that you can get super passive items at times, I usually play with my brother and I can't tell you how many times we have been in situations like getting a banana in 3rd or a single green in 5th
There is an option to prioritize more frantic items iirc, though it might only be in battle mode.
@@astralnekomimi No there is, but not exactly what people want.
10:26 This is so funny to me bc the current SNES Rainbow Road 200cc WR does this too on the first lap but it's WAY more egregious and it's actually kinda funny
Best video ever, Nintendo fix the booster pass.
You made this comment before watching the video huh.
Bro didn't even watch the video
Nah 2nd best. Cool Bowser is 1st
Cry some more ignoramus
nintendo did some mkwii physics in wave 4
My biggest nitpick is that whenever anything hits you, you lose the same amount of coins. This just doesn’t feel right to me. A banana spinning you Out is three, and so is a giant, nigh-unstoppable shell of destruction.
16:15
Huh, funny, Birdo's soon playable...
16:06 WHAT DID YOU SAY LITTLE BOY? Birdo is indeed playable!
A personal nitpick of mine is How the Triple banana doesn't form a trail behind you driver, and instead circles them like a triple shell would. When it worked the old way, it made it one of the best defensive items in the series in my opinion, and now it's not nearly as useful.
You can just... throw a banana down before a red shell hits you.
The item disabling thing would probably be a problem to implement, as the way the item roulette works requires them to already have separate formulas for every preset.
Funny thing is that they allow custom items now, so either they just made a general item roulette calculation, or it was always possible to customise and they just didn't made a menu option for it until now.
Many of these nitpicks were fixed in wave 3 and 4 of the dlc. You can now choose which items you want, you now keep gliding when getting shocked, birdo was added, with another 5 chracters being added (given you do need to buy the dlc to use them...), and I think more.
I've always thought that character variations such as cat Peach should be variations (like with Yoshi's and Shy Guy's colors), not independent characters. That was the model in Mario Sports Mix and it seems more reasonable than having two Marios racing against each other.
The way I see it, a game like mario kart or smash should have unlockable characters but also have a simple code on the main menu and title screen that would temporarily unlock all content until you close the game.
What's the point of them being unlockable if you can just cheat?
@@doraemon402 to make the single player experience rewarding while making hardcore/competitive players able to setup a tournament easily (don't reveal the code in-game so that most people still play to unlock)
@@doraemon402 So players can still try and unlock everything while still having an option with multiplayer. Mario Golf 64 has a code like this that unlocks all characters and all courses but one, but there are still unlock conditions if you want to do it legit.
My big nit pick is
No new characters in the dlc like come on they can literally just port the tour characters over modders have been doing this for a while now and it's disappointing they never done this officially
They may? The dlc isn't done
Yeah I really wish they did this, maybe they’ll make a character pass later on?
@@IcyDiamond I also hope for this because if they don't it would be a big missed opportunity
@@Beeean no they don’t may that, they have specifically said that it’s only courses
birdos coming wave 4
Odyssey in the beginning calling it pretty good and then doing a cartwheel into the Spider-Man into the spider verse universe and defeating lord licorice from candy land was my favorite part
timestamp?
@@autismandgaming4532 19:32
I love how most (if not all) of these were fixed in Waves 3 & 4
You cant change the CC in battle mode!!
You should definitely do a Mario Odyssey Nitpicks video!
YES.
I missed the post but a MASSIVE nitpick I have is that there's no option to do an odd number of games in the battle modes, meaning that matches end in a draw a ton. Either make it possible to do an odd number of games or do a tiebreaker if you draw.
Custom items are now a thing.
The new Wave 3 DLC tracks use zero-gravity.
This was before wave 3 and custom items
Sorry Odyssey but it’s clear your brother is far more skilled. Literally everyone knows the teleport on track after falling trick just a skill issue
14:03 Irrelevant to the video but I'm just amazed how he managed to get 2 coins in the same item box
That happened to me online. I think it happens when the game has a stroke and starts lagging really bad
yeah this happened to me a few months after I wrote that comment and then I understood, lol
one PET PEEVE: with all the babies in the game (some with no presence in the Mario franchise), why no BABY YOSHI?! It would be great to see baby yoshi from SMW make an appearance.
I wish we could choose the Characters of the CPUs like in Smash Bros. and Mario Party
That would be interesting. I just wish characters didn't have a specific stat, but instead like Crash Team Racing, allow any character to have 4 different types
Why isn’t there a button to swap your item slots, like there was in Double Dash. You could press Z to swap your drivers, and by doing so their held items would switch. It adds so much to the gameplay.
8:27: merry mountain was announced for wave 3 at the September direct and it showed anti-grav in segments not the entire track. When did you write the script for this?
The main problem I had with this game (as well as all MK games starting with MK7) is that when you enter a Cannon, it activates a Glider which pretty much leaves you vulnerable to items (such as if a Lightning is used, you’re pretty much screwed), in prior games you were pretty much invincible when you were in a Cannon, I hope that in the next game, Cannons and Gliders are two separate things. 😬😬😬
every dlc wave is just:
cup 1
-city track
-random track
-random track
-random popular track
cup 2
-city track
-random track
-random track
-new track
(ninja hideway was classified as new but ig from now on we will be seeing actual new tracks if this pattern continues)
That thing usually happens on snes rainbow road, due to the riveting roads section where the thwomps are, I’m pretty sure they made it more generous in 8 DX Since on the Wii U sometimes if your too close to the edge you’ll just clip off and it would suck.
13:32 is so fucking evil. My God
Watch your mouth
“Even if it does sometimes make me wanna throw my controller across the room, I think that’s kind of part of the appeal.”

6:48 lets goooo funky kong and pauline made it into the dlc R.I.P cappy tho
And King Bob Omb… why peachette….
I’d love 200cc Mirror mode would be a great way to add a couple dozen extra trophies to earn in Grand Prix
My bet is that 200cc mirror mode will be unlocked when all waves come in.
@@ChuyR. What about CC increments by 25 instead of 50?
(75cc, 125cc, 175cc, 225cc and an easter egg which unlocks 69cc and 169cc, only on VS modes)
Dry bones has no skin ahhhhhh 😮
“Pauline, Funky Kong would be great”
Little did he know…
not really a nitpick but an addition, i feel like there should be another CC mode. 150 CC feels too slow for me and my dad now, so its probably the same with other players (or just my character combination sucks)
i feel like 200 CC is too hectic for me, bashing into everything and falling off course. so maybe a mix between the two and introducing a new 175 CC will be cool.
i also think that CC could possibly be an unlockable or be used to unlock some other nintendo characters, or the CC could be apart of the booster course pack completely
Tour: "Oh, 150cc in 8DX feels slow for you? That's cute. My 200cc is _even slower than that!!!"_
16:29 I think it's pretty obvious why this hasn't returned in a Mario Kart game with online functionality. You would probably see many... uniquely male body parts
Sky high sundae is still a tour track and the reason nintendo markets them as new is so they can be like "buy this dlc, it adds brand new tracks!"
And they're adding antigrav, in a good way, to merry mountain in wave 3 as well as adding halfpipes
Sky high sundae is still a tour track.no it isn't it was introduced in deluxe first, If what game it was released for first doesn't define what game its from then what does
@@algotkristoffersson15 how about the game it was actually made for?
the biggest nitpick for me is the fact you have so much invincibility after getting hit. i wish it was like double dash where you could combo items into eachother. items don't feel nearly as satisfying anymore
Honestly who tf would play as cappy 😂
………………………..
@@Odyssey_Central my bad forgot I was commenting on ODYSSEY CENTRAL
9:06 this respwan actually used to be nicer but they ended up changing it in the wave 2 update :/
THEY UPDATED IT TO BE WORSE??????????????????????
@@Odyssey_Central hey Odyssey. May I ask you a question please?
@@Odyssey_Central Yes, they changed the way Lakitu works universally in that update instead of fixing individual glitches
@@connor9568 why would they fix any “glitch” that doesn’t crash the game
well the new update added custom items (way more antigrav/underwater in the DLC wave 3) AND no more getting hit with lightning in mid air while gliding!
See his latest video.
SO glad the trophy models were brought up. the default models look so stunning, and then the DLC ones are just copy and paste 😭
Let's go new upload
The game didn't add golden dry bones from tour in the dlc (yet) so it's a 0/10
My only nitpick is that Wiggler isn’t a playable character
This actually isn’t the only game to have two-sided Thwomps; the ones in Super Mario Galaxy also have faces on the back
Hey Odyssey. Great video. May I ask you a question please?
Give up.
Just ask the question directly and your chance of getting answered rises like crazy
It was worth being banned for pointing out that the thwomps had two faces. I no longer have to carry this burden of knowledge myself
One of my biggest nitpicks is that both the wii u and booster course pass cups don't have custom trophies and have the regular mario kart 8 trophies
I can’t believe you mentioned costumes without bringing up that Tanooki Mario should’ve been a costume instead of an additional character!
Why’d they choose toad circuit as the second dlc track though? ITS SO BORING
Also: When it comes to items you should be able to select what items you want and I’ll used mushrooms only as an example even though it’s mushrooms only you still get coins. And back in the original Mario kart 8 I got a green shell in 9th and a banana in 10th
Edit: I just got into the video and I saw the mushroom coin thing got mentioned
Tbf, Toad Circuit is one of the better beginner courses, they tend to be (understandably) pretty bland, but at least this one has a bit more going on compared to the average
And the Booster Pass is a full second set of courses, they don’t care if the vanilla game already has a specific theme or gimmicks (like beanstalk or traffic), they only care about what’s in the Booster Pass itself, so they probably wanted a beginner course of its own, and Toad Circuit has been in Tour since launch, so they probably went with that one because it was a very easy port
so sorry odyssey, i am your brother's red shell supplier. i apologize for making him better than you
You will be receiving a letter from my lawyer shortly.
uh oh
i also helped him hack on SNES rainbow road to teleport back up
I’m really surprised this wasn’t mentioned. I really hate the system for joining a ranked mode with friends. One person has to join individually, then your friend has to follow you in and HOPE there’s a slot available. If not, then they could be waiting through several races to join. I don’t understand why there isn’t some sort of party system to join a lobby with enough space for you.
I really wish they would add volume sliders for sound effects and music. That way you can listen to the music without the sfx getting in the way, as well as being able to turn off the music and keep the sfx (instead of completely muting the game) if you want to turn on other background music.
13:50 update
10:01 NOT CHEATING, THAT IS A MECHANIC MARIO KART 8 IN PARTICULAR!
Specifically on that track actually.
@@algotkristoffersson15 Thank you for agreeing with me
8:30
Tour Merry Mountain: “Hold my Eggnog”
Biggest thing I wish they brought over r the side ramps on wii like on the turns how u truck up the wall and land… hope the next dlc tracks have them
They're returning
Mine is IT KEEPS SELLING!
13:47 Well, you can now.
you know what would be cool an option to switch so that if you grap an item box you can choose from the normal random items
I wish you had the option to choose the CPU characters you race against. It's constantly three Koopalings, two Peaches, two villagers etc.
Yes! I’ve been wanting that for so long, I’m tired of so many koopalings
there is 1 + side to the fact that Ninja Hideaway, Sky-High Sundae (and likely Merry Mountain) aren't listened as Tour tracks
it helps us with the datamine, to see which couses are Tour City tracks and which are Tour non-City tracks
As someone living during wave 5, a few of these made me chuckle, mainly custom items and birdo
Man predicted the wave tree not close your glider when lightninged thing lol AND THE ITEM ONE WTF
Funny how now birdo is one of the best characters now
The amount of time it took me to realize that this is genuinely from before Birdo got announced…
Surprised no-one commented on the lack of a random option for the character select screen
This is mainly because I'm too lazy to pick a character but still
One thing they could do for Balloon Battle is give us the best of both worlds: Works the same way as the old games, except there is a timer and if multiple players are remaining when time is up, each player's points is the tiebreaker. This way you still have the core experience of players having to be extremely careful with their driving and item usage, without online matches taking forever or being super campy and boring to watch.
Thats actually a cool idea.
I also hate that your in first and a blue shell is coming. But then someone passes you and you still get hit by the blue shell it's really annoying
OC: “No game is perfect”
Sonic Adventure 2: “Am I a joke to you?”
Hell no
It’s good, but FAR from perfect
The framerate does not get cut in 8 Deluxe when you have over 2 players. That was a thing in the Wii U version, but not anymore.
about the character skin things, I’m kind of surprised there isn’t more skins after mario kart tour, they bring so many tracks from there but none of the character skins? it was quite surprising
One of your nitpicks should be that the upcoming Dry Bones Mii Racing Suit in MKT isn’t in 8D
I forgot about this in the original post but I think about it all the time, I SO wish there were volume sliders for music, character voices, and sound effects. Custom sound balancing is a pretty consistent thing in games nowadays and it really sucks we don’t have it in Mario Kart. I just really wanna crank up the music! (Edit: I had a stroke typing that)
