*IMPORTANT NOTICE:* The title's been changed from "I Colonized Yoshi Circuit" to "Yoshi Circuit is MINE" as to avoid the negative connotations that are associated with the word "colonize". I was only thinking about stuff like NASA colonizing Mars and failed to consider how the word could've been taken differently and I apologize for that. Unfortunately I can't edit out the first few seconds of the video where I say "colonize" but I hope this is enough, thanks for all the feedback!
On a more positive note, which version of Yoshi Circuit is your favorite?
might sound basic but i think the version in mario kart 8 is the best
E
i will ALWAYS like the og version the most cause it has the shortcut
Original, the versions without the shortcut are my least favorite track in their respective games
yes
But if the 8DX version had it it would probably be my favorite because of that games lighting
NSMBDS Zikedown for World 7 when?
Whoa... now that I think about it this course kinda looks like Yoshi
YOU'RE RIGHT WHAT
Big if true
sounds like a bunch of bogus
You might be onto something... although maybe you're confusing him with a Pianta, specially considering this 0:58
DID YOU LITERALLY JUST NOTICE THAT
“I just want to travel through the back of Yoshi’s skull again” is a sentence I never thought I’d hear
Yoshi’s Inside Story
@@pokeperson1000 We already had that in M&L: Partners in Time! Tho I guess technically that was Yoob, not Yoshi. But they're so similar it probably makes little difference...
like the bullet of a merciful man
Yoshi the throat goat
@@sirhenrymorgan1187 no it makes a huge difference.
Yoshi is cute. Yoob is ugly.
yes that matters no don't ask why
Double Dash: Understood the assignment.
MKDS: Doing the minimum to pass.
MK8: Saw Double Dash's solution once, attempted to recreate it from memory without understanding why they did what they did.
Tour: Copied 8’s homework but butchered it along the way
MKWii Custom Tracks: Faithful to double dash, but no helicopter 😢
Helikopter helikopter 🚁
Pretty much the same way Nintendo's handled everything since the GC era
In MKDS's defense, it was running in 4 megabytes of ram on a 66MHz arm9 chip.
1:46 Shame that this shortcut was cut (no pun intended) from future versions, it looks like the sickest shortcut ever.
It feels like Nintendo forgot about it
We really got the short end of the stick with this cut
nintendo also cut another shortcut from mushroom bridge when it came to the ds, which is probably not coming to the mario kart 8 dlc
It's still there on mkwii
@@jonathanbarkins8480 Yoshi Circuit is not in MKWii, unless you're referring to a fanmade version
Wish we got the perfect version of this track somewhere. Anywhere.
Imagine the secret tunnel, cameos like the Yoshi helicopter and flower faces, and the star pattern water, but with 8's level of graphics. (And obviously without Daisy Cruiser being ten thousand damn kilometers away)
I think 8’s layout was really fudging good :D like REAAAALLY good, like most technical and complex in the GAAAME good, it’d be really nice to give it as much personality as in double dash :D
Nintendon't on the wii u is great. You get 720p without emulation. Plus you can add AA
I NEVER knew about that second shortcut and I played this since launch day. That's insane
Oh god, Zoomzike has turned into the United Kingdom.
🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
And Yoshi Circuit no longer has slavery. Win-Win.
ZoomZike = BRI’ISH?!?!?!
peach is DEAD
I’m currently having some flashbacks to the “troubles”
The DS version was my first MK experience. Never knew it was so lacking even compared to previous games 😔 I’ll still always hold it dear to my heart
I heard it was because Mario kart DS was rushed, so that would make sense.
I can relate
@@Alejandro-eq7xq you may be confusing DS with 7 here.
I don't think DS was rushed, it just had graphical limitations.
@@jclkaytwo its not about graphics, its about content i think.
@@Alejandro-eq7xq content? what? mario kart DS has 32 tracks (double the previous games) a full battle mode, VS mode, mission mode, online play for the first time in the series... what the heck are you going on about content? again, you're confusing it with 7
One thing I really enjoyed about Mario Kart Double Dash is something you mentioned in this video. You can often see other courses from the game in the background of the one you're on. Each Mario Kart game is more or less a representation of where the Mario series stands at any given time. Super featured a lot of SMW design and references, 64 featured a lot of SM64 design and you could even argue that Super Circuit was a good representation of Mario on the GBA because half that game's courses are straight up taken from Super Mario Kart much like how all the main Mario platformers of the GBA are ports of older Mario games. Double Dash was very clearly influenced by Super Mario Sunshine. Lots of characters from Sunshine appear as spectators or other such things, like the Nokis, Piantas, and Toadsworth at the trophy ceremony. There are also several hazards inspired by Sunshine, like the Cataquacks on Peach Beach or the Wiggler buses in Mushroom City and Mushroom Bridge. However, the best piece taken from Sunshine's design is easily the courses in the background of other courses. It really makes the world feel lived in and grounded. Such a shame future Mario Kart games or Mario in general didn't keep doing that
amazing comment! i knew that Double Dash took a lot of cues from Sunshine, but i never realized that applied to the whole series!
the closest we got to courses appearing in the background of others again is Mario Kart 8, which has Toad Harbor visible beneath N64 Rainbow Road, and several courses listed as destinations in Sunshine Airport (if you want to count that).
Heck, Mario Power Tennis even uses the same HUD font and style as Sunshine with the green paintbrush strokes. What does Mario Tennis Aces give us? A stark, generic HUD that looks like it came from Madden 2007.
There was a rumor back in my childhood, that if you hit the yoshi helicopter with a banana peel, a cutscene would play showing the helicopter crashing and unlocking a secret course: Yoshi's Fireland.
I tried to hit this helicopter so many times, thinking I missed it because it moves so fast.. Oh, good memories
Once again, GameCube Era Mario proves to be the best, at least in my eyes. I love it's more cartoony aesthetic, as well as the more intricate course layout with shortcuts that promote exploration and experimentation.
GameCube era Mario just has the best artstyle. A perfect mix of realism and cartoony with a charm that I think games like New Super Mario Bros and even Mario galaxy somewhat lose
double dash, mario party four and six, sunshine, just perfect for mario lovers
even with the other spinoffs like the sports games and Paper Mario: TTYD have such charming artstyles that none of the other games in their respective series managed to come close to.
@toney what happened with mario party 5?
Baby Park and Wario Colosseum/Stadium is the best imo
You Mario game analysis are always a treat, it's so obvious you're genuinely passionate about this series
I always like hearing you squee over the tiniest little details. I don't know of anyone else that gives Mario spinoff games the same level of minute attention to detail paired with such childish glee and I'm here for it
Didn't realize that one lf the MK8 buildings is shaped like Yoshi.
I have much more appreciation for the Double Dash version of this stage now seeing how much they neutered it in later versions.
I could be wrong, but I feel like the MK8 Yoshi rock at 5:35 could be a reference to the Yoshi Planet from Mario Galaxy's mission Yoshi's Unexpected Appearance, they look very similar. Great video!
the original being the best version is a textbook nintendo moment
double dash was my first mario kart game and I loved yoshi's circuit ever since I'm a kid. I never knew about that neck shortcut until now. How is this game still surprising me nearly 20 years later??
You have no idea how long I’ve been looking for the 1:52 shortcut. My entire life I’ve tried to go in there and was never able to. I lost this game years ago but I always wondered if you could go there and this video finally showed me I wasn’t crazy
They literally got rid of an unique shortcut.
What really funny is that except for the first one by Yoshi’s hand, none of the hidden pathways are really shortcuts…just alternate paths.
Zoomzike, your "nitpicking" is just you geeking over the smallest details, and that's exactly why I watch your channel.
You are able to put focus on the smallest details that the game designers put in out of love, and I love it too!
It's genuinely such an incredible thing that always makes my day, keep it up!
This video made me appreciate just how good the gamecube’s colour pallet was!
Possibly my favourite era of Mario, at least aesthetically.
I have never seen someone so passioned over a Mario Kart track and I love it lmao
I remember discovering the skull shortcut long after I first purchased the game. I was bored and messing around with Wario and Toadette in time trials purposefully failing at every thing in the track and started playing the race backwards when I noticed this tunnel exit, which you can't really see when you play forward because of the way it leads to the turn. I then had to figure out where the hell it lead so I could finally try it going forward. It's really hard to make it in real time with a mushroom, as you have to align perfectly without quite seeing the entrance until the last second, but it is so satisfying to pull off!
This stage is a joy to see, and the novelty might've worn off if it was repeated, but as a Yoshi shaped track it's as great as it gets!
A whole video about the best Mario kart track? Heck yeah!
There was so much charm Yoshi’s Circuit i never noticed them all. Thanks for showing us these small yet delightful things that were taken out.
It makes me so excited to see someone else talking about how fun that double dash shortcut was! I remember getting so excited when I finally nailed that shortcut for the first time
That second shortcut is one of my favorites in the series, its just so secretive compared to others and finding it was super cool
Also i never made the connection between entering the tunnel through the nostril and going through it like a damn booger
Neat analysis video! Kinda interesting to see how this little landscape & its civilization features have progressed over time. Thanks for uploading!
1:45 I actually didn't know this shortcut existed. Thanks for letting us know about this neat little secret.
This franchise peaked with Double Dash and nothing could top it.
one thing i believe is worth mentioning about the DS version is how it was the first track implemented into the game (not even a nitro track!), as evidenced by the game's data listing it first and being the only track we've seen in footage from 2004, i just believe that's nice to know
For the best version of this track, I'd say keep the general design from 8 Deluxe while bringing back the details from Double Dash that were removed or reduced like the stars in the water, the Yoshi Helicopter, and the Daisy Cruiser's details.
Also bring back the overhang shortcut and have a ramp at the end of it, it's neat.
Double dash is truly the best version of Mario kart
Agreed, it could have used more tracks though.
Thank you so much for 5alking about the shortcut of the doubledash version. I remember clearly falling right around it and seeing it when I was just a kid and never being able to take it. Later when I played other version of this circuit I scoured it remembering the hidden tunnel but never finding it. I legit thought this was a Mandela effect and I was crazy for seeing it for YEARS. Now I know that I didn't hallucinate it when I was a kid and I am reaffirmed in my belief that Double dash is the ultimate version of Mario kart and this is the objective truth.
I am also a HUGE yoshi's circuit fan. so much so that as soon as i unlocked terraforming in animal crossing: new horizons, i made a custom yoshi outfit design and turned my entire island into this track. it was complete with a track including racecar bed racers, a start/finish line, a waterfall around the first shortcut on the hand, different red flowers decorating his spikes, and businesses in the shoe area, and even the small lighthouse island in the distance. Villagers were on the higher parts of the island across his body and my house was over his nose. was very fun to put together!
Man, I fucking miss the Gamecube era. Nintendo at its best imo.
People always think I'm crazy when I tell them it's one of my favorite tracks in the series. Seeing someone break down and appreciate all the tiny details that make this track so special was a cathartic experience, thank you
This is the ZoomZike content we all really needed.
“I’ll take care of you my child” 💀
I’ve gone my entire life without realizing there were any shortcuts on this track until today and I don’t know how to feel about it
I'm one of those people that have played Mario kart double dash since the GameCube was Nintendo's newest video game system and yet I didn't know there was a shortcut there.
They remove the shortcuts from a lot of tracks as far as I'm aware peach Beach for example doesn't have the tunnel at the beginning.
0:26
Unforutately this Yoshi went through a very painful accident that made him lose all of his fingers right before they brought it back for the DS version
yeah, I think the main difference is in Double Dash, the courses feel like they are in the Mario world, like having stars in the water, where 8 is more leaning towards a normal kart racer, it definitely looks great but it lacks the Mario flare
I remember coming to this channel because of the Ace Attorney play through with my friends a year ago… I forgot about the channel, but it appears I have found it again :0
Thank you for the quality content looking forward to the next one
You had me dead ass yell "WTF" at my TV. I never knew about that shortcut until now
I love you Zoom, no other content makes me this happy
I liked this course too... Now that you showed the details of it I might consider it the best one too.
Dude, I had completely forgotten about that tunnel shortcut in Double Dash. I think I remember using it as a kid. My mind was blown when you showed it because I am so used to 8 Deluxe now.
After years this course just popped back into my head as recently as I distinctly remembered how detailed I thought it looked back on the GameCube.
I spat out my drink when I saw that shortcut. All these years and I never saw it when I played DD. Amazing
1:46 IVE BEEN PLAYING THIS TRACK MY ENTIRE LIFE WHAT
Another neat thing about the water in Dash i noticed is it uses the same exact effect Sunshine's water has.
ZoomZike, half the reason I love your videos so much is BECAUSE of the obsessing over small details, many of which I would have never noticed myself. It is not irksome at all, please continue getting hyped over star shapes in the water!
Next time this course comes back, there better be a shortcut where you can mushroom boost through the tail, using the shell overhang as a ramp. This is possible in a 0 Lakitu mod for 8 but I really wish it becomes a real cut in the future.
The billboard that you see in double dash at the exit of yoshis nose says "Turn left" even though you are driving right i think that was an indication for the shorcut because you have to turn left to get to it
I never noticed some things while playing this course! Of course I noticed that the course was... well... Yoshi, But I never noticed the yoshi rock, the billboard eye, the shell, Daisy cruiser, etc!
Really cool video, I am now officially subscribed to you.
I hope you have a pleasant day!
"Obsessing over small details may get irksome at times..."
as though that kind of passion isn't the reason we love your videos!
...also, wow. mad props for knowing that's a Shell and not a Saddle Yoshi's got on his back. a true man of culture!
really love your analytical videos, whether it’s game design or aesthetic areas you’d wanna reside in/on. if you ever get around to doing more nsmb zikedown stuff, i’d be all for it
lol. I love the energy and excitement in your voice.
I literally never knew about that shortcut. What.
So that's why its called Yoshi circuit. Its made like Yoshi. Its so beautiful
I never noticed the stars in the water. That is an unironically great little detail
Mario Kart Double Dash has been my favorite game of the series ever since I gained a liking for it when I was four. I am 20 now, and in my entire life, I have never seen that tunnel skip on the back of Yoshi's head. I don't even know how to handle this new piece of information I am astounded!
I love the effort you put in all your videos
I love you Zoom Zike fr you're gonna be what I listen to go to sleep forever
The best character gets the best course. 👍
I thought this video was about how you would’ve colonized this island. Like what structures you would’ve put where.
I love this iteration of Mario Kart so much
Interesting tidbit:
GCN Yoshi Circuit was one of the first tracks made for both MKDS and Tour seemingly created pretty early in both dev cycles
It's the one piece Double Dash that continues to live on strong
I’ve always loved zoom(ziking) around this track.
When you realize Yoshi might have more land than Wario, think about it he has this Island, presumably the Yoshi Falls track, Yoshi Valley and maybe more that I'm not remembering
I have to find my double dash copy now. I can’t believe I never knew that shortcut was there
his vocal energy on the star water comment made me sub bro this guy's great
Me, watching this video: There is a shortcut WHERE??
Me, 30 seconds later, when listening to the MKDS section: oh, nvm
Oh my god I'm so fucking glad that the ctgp-7 version of the track has the shortcut. I was so surprised when you said that,I had to check.
I thought I knew this track growing up but then you showed me that shortcut.. 🤯🤯
I Didn't Even Notice Some Of These Details, This Just Made Yoshi Circuit Even Better Imo
One of my favorite courses.
I'll never forget the moment I fell off of yoshi's circuit from an accidental mushroom...only to fall shy of a shortcut. blew my childhood mind, it felt so special and I couldn't WAIT to share with everyone, who ended up just as shocked when I went flying out of a wall!...I'll also not forget the disappointment when my aunt asked me to humble my cocky little cousin, then got laughed at for smashing into a wall where a shortcut once was.
He didn't laugh long of course, I was too disappointed to go easy anymore. But still, heartbreaking to see such a wonderful touch get removed.
I have never seen that second short cut in my life holy shit
You have successfully convinced me to have a favorite mario kart track
Despite the shortcuts being removed, this track is still one of my favorites in MK8D. It's such a fun left right left right drifting track that flows smoothly
With a killer song to boot
I love the passion my guy, I love your take!
One guy at Nintendo: What if we made a track in the shape of Yoshi?
Nintendo making nearly every Mario Kart game afterwards: Remember that Yoshi shaped track? That was such a good idea! Let's bring it back as a retro track.
The shortcut at around 1:50 is so goddamn Sled Storm I cannot even.
love it, thanks for the video!
Some guy on the SMB3 team: After all, why not? Why shouldn't I put eyes on literally everything?
I HAVE double dash and I never knew of the second, back of skull shortcut. I will need to investigate!!!!
Oh my god, I’ve played this game since a i was tiny-tiny and i never knew about that second shortcut…amazing
ZoomZike dun now made a great track and I love it
I absolutely love this Trak! My fav in mk!
this was always one of my favorite mkdd tracks!
yoshis island on mario kart 8 150cc also just feels perfect to race on. i dont know why, but its just so nice
That shortcut convinced me to play double dash
It would be really cool if daisy cruiser got closer and closer each lap, and by the third you could take a different route off the grass similar to the OG route, and use a part of the boat as a short cut. If the cruiser doesn't make it into deluxe, it would be a really neat reference to its appearance double dash!
"Alright, we're running out of track designs. What do we do for the third Star Cup track?"
"I dunno."
"I know, why don't we do Yoshi's Island?"
"Alright we'll do a Yoshi island."
"Wait, no, I meant-"
"Too late we made Yoshi into an island."
"Oh-oh wait that's sick."
