Honestly I like the first credits theme of mario kart wii more than the second. The music combined with th orange sky in the clip brings me back to simpler times, when I was 7 and I didn't have any worries in life just playing mario kart wii trying to not fall on rainbow road. Yes, I danced to the second theme but the first one carries all the nostalgic feelings
Exactly! Everyone's list is going to be crazy different because of the emotional ties and fond memories we have attached to each theme. Respect your answer!
You know all the credit themes are too good when Wii's first credits theme is ranked at #10. Think that one is my favorite and by a landslide, though I can definitely respect the reasoning for having it a bit lower. Double Dash, DS, and Wii were definitely my three nostalgia Mario Karts, and though I didn't play 64 until a bit later on in life, I think 64 and Double Dash's credits might be two of the most impactful. Most of these credits are really good (outside of Tour lol), and I can't imagine how hard it was to rank them all. Great video!
Haha fair enough! Yeah I can see how nostalgia hitting that one can be, but you're right it's still a fantastic theme, and goes to show how incredible ALL of the MK Credits themes are! Appreciate you watching!
I literally cried to the Booster Course Pass theme I know it’s a video game song…but it’s just so special to me I can’t put it into words. I don’t think i understand why it’s one of my favorite songs of all time

i think it's a good take on the wii theme. many people glaze wii a ton just because it was the game that propelled mk into the big leagues, but like as much as it is a great game saying everything about it is the best is straight up wrong
Also Gabe, I've an idea: 💡 when showing gameplays of certain tracks, maybe you can even show their remakes so we can see any changes made to them. Eg, Wii Dry Dry Ruins→Wii, Tour(23 Ninja Tour) DS Delfino Square → DS, Wii 3DS Shy Guy Bazaar → 3DS,Tour(19 NY Tour) Please can you give it a try Gabe? (Like in MK8DX Wii's Credits)
My list would go like this 10 - Mario Kart Wii 9 - Super Mario Kart 8 - Mario Kart: Double Dash 7 - Mario Kart: Super Circuit 6 - Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Booster Course Pass 5 - Mario Kart 7 4 - Mario Kart DS Normal 3 - Mario Kart 64 2 - Mario Kart 8 1 - Mario Kart DS Secret Slightly biased since DS was one of the first games I've ever played alongside Sonic 2 and SM64. Never played the Arcade games and I have no desire to. I think I like the credit themes that make you reflect on what you just played through. Something about it feels very climactic and great when your video game credits sound soft but upbeat at the same time.
Mario Kart 8's original credits theme is not just my favorite credits theme in the Mario Kart series, but quite possibly my favorite piece of music from any video game ever. I don't say that lightly! My list would line up with yours exactly if the two 8DX themes were swapped. I significantly prefer how seamless the game themes are incorporated in the original rather than the somewhat disjointed medley style of the BCP. The only part of the tune that I don't completely vibe with is the beginning of the Electrodrome section, but then the horns come back in and it floors me! Legendary credits theme, and one of the only credits that I never skip because of that
I don't blame you! I honestly forgot what it sounded like until listening to it for this vid and yeah I agree that there's so much to like about this one!
The Nostalgia, just by hearing the first notes of the DS and Wii credits alone If nostalgia was a factor, I think I would definitely place these at the top, but I pretty much agree with your ranking And the BCP Credits theme is amazing, I definitely agree it is my favorite one Great video 🔥
I love the DS credits theme so much! Some of the most nostalgic music in any video game for me. I even made a stupid edit of Michael Rosen singing it which is on my channel if that interests anyone 😭
I like to have my own commentary with the song lightly playing in the background as opposed to just the song playing the whole time otherwise I think they diminishes the quality of the video. Though for future videos like this I could try to implement 5-6 seconds of the song playing alone in the beginning as opposed to 3 seconds which I used here. Appreciate the feedback!
@@GWallPro Don't worry I don't mind about you talking over the song I'm just saying I can barely catch the rhythm of the song as you talk over the song, Good video!
SMK shoud not be that low, it gives the nostalgia and its a pretty cool tune, all the Arcade ones are not that momorable, Home Circuit feels like a generic movie credits, also Double Dash is honestly boring imo
The Booster Course Pass Credits is so good that it's now my absolute favorite Mario Kart song ever
It really is a banger of a song!
I feel that the Mario Kart DS' First Credits theme is a celebration of the past, while the second one is a celebration of the future
Mario Kart DS Credits theme He literally makes me cry from so much nostalgia... I love him so much 😭
And Mario Kart 7 is simply 🔥🎷🗿🍷
MK64’s Credits theme is the only song that has ever gotten me to cry listening to it. It’s too good of a theme.
I don't blame you. They killed it on that theme!
The Booster Course Pass credits theme was the perfect sendoff to Mario Kart 8.
Mario Kart 7 credits started the whole Mario Kart 8 jazz thing
Ok cutie
and i love the jazz style of mk8 it's great and gives awesome vibes
I don't know... Double Dash's credits theme has this jazz piano/piano rock thing going on.
It was actually 64 which started it

Double dash,wii,7,and the booster course pass are my favorite credits
Those are all solid ones!

You got the “fact” wrong when you said mk8 was the first game to reference tracks, but if you listen to Wii you can hear it reference other tracks
And Mario kart DS has a bit of rainbow road
Yeah Wii V2 references Maple Treeway and is basically just one part of the Circuit theme looped over and over again. Kinda crap
Gotta be DS ver 1, genuinely makes me tear up from the nostalgia
I can completely understand that. Incredible track!
You did dirty to MK64 again...that track is top 3 at least
I think Top 6 is still extremely solid. Shows there's a ton of great credits themes out there!
@@GWallPro You're right, I just want to see my boy at the top
Booster Course is the best one. But I just love that music and the drivers passing by in Double Dash.
Yeah that was a great touch to the credits! Thanks for watching!
I love Wii but BCP is the perfect love letter to tour fans. The credits theme we never got for that game.
That’s a great way to look at it!
I literally cried to the Booster Course Pass theme I know it’s a video game song…but it’s just so special to me I can’t put it into words. I don’t think i understand why it’s one of my favorite songs of all time
MKT's "credits" are the grand prix highlights reel from MK8. Also you are wrong about SMK's credits, i always cry when i hear them
MKDD Wii MKDS MK7 MK8 and MK8DXBC are so good
The holy cow timing was perfect.
Mario Kart Wii Staff Credits B made me cry, the nostalgia hits hard
Soon GWall will be ranking how a freshly opened copy of each game smells
1:26 *slowly raises hand*
I like how you have a bar on the left side of the screen showing how long the segment is. It's a small detail, but a welcome one!
That was a last minute addition but I'm really glad you liked it being there! I'll be sure to use it for future vids like this one!
Lmao I must be old because Mario Kart 64 is indeed my nostalgia Mario Kart☠️☠️

DS is my personal favourite, it just feels so personal and emotional.
It is quite incredible!
Something I really like about mksc’s is that it sounds like super bell hill in some parts for some reason
Crazy observation! Maybe that’s where SM3DW got its inspiration 👀
9:10 It's not the first. Mario Kart Wii's V2 has parts of the Circuit theme as well as Maple Treeway
i think it's a good take on the wii theme. many people glaze wii a ton just because it was the game that propelled mk into the big leagues, but like as much as it is a great game saying everything about it is the best is straight up wrong
I do think that mario kart wii has the best credits screen because the first credits screen song is just so so so so so good!
Also Gabe, I've an idea: 💡 when showing gameplays of certain tracks, maybe you can even show their remakes so we can see any changes made to them.
Eg,
Wii Dry Dry Ruins→Wii, Tour(23 Ninja Tour)
DS Delfino Square → DS, Wii
3DS Shy Guy Bazaar → 3DS,Tour(19 NY Tour)
Please can you give it a try Gabe? (Like in MK8DX Wii's Credits)
Never heard 8 Deluxe's Booster Course Pass credits theme. Should do so at some point tho.
It’s an incredible theme. Thanks for watching!
Mario Kart Wiis made me cry honestly
MKDS Credits Version 1 is peak and if you disagree you are objectively wrong
Mario Kart 7 is the best one
That sax is the best sax I’ve ever heard in my life
Made me cry
Caught me so off guard haha, it is incredible!
My list would go like this

My favorites the Mariokart 8 end credits
The first ds theme deserves better than 8th
Double dash is my fav mk & the credits goes so hard
It really does! Double Dash is great!
officially a member for
8 months
Congrats and thanks for being a member for that long!!
smk theme should be up with mk8dx booster course pass theme, cuz mk8dx literally uses smk theme in it
Sometimes a remixed arrangement is all a song needs to go from okay to legendary
True. But I personally think that the synth base is pretty good.
Mario Kart Double Dash, DS, and Wii have the best three credits. Mario Kart 64 and Super Circuit come close as well.
The Nostalgia, just by hearing the first notes of the DS and Wii credits alone
If nostalgia was a factor, I think I would definitely place these at the top, but I pretty much agree with your ranking
And the BCP Credits theme is amazing, I definitely agree it is my favorite one
Great video 🔥
Thanks very much Sparky! Glad you enjoyed the video! And yeah the nostalgia behind those credits themes are something else 🔥
I love the DS credits theme so much! Some of the most nostalgic music in any video game for me. I even made a stupid edit of Michael Rosen singing it which is on my channel if that interests anyone 😭
My favorites are 64, Super Circuit, DS, and Wii
Good vid gwall keep up the good work
Thank you! I appreciate that!
9:07
You mean litmotifs?
In my opinion the 2nd Wii one takes gold
Meh it's basically js one part of the circuit theme looped over and over again, not my cup of tea
@@DittoGTI I respect that opinion
@@Smylex64 I respect your opinion. I'm guessing you have a lot of nostalgia for MKW
First game I ever played actually
@@Smylex64 Same here but it was at another person's house. We both sucked
I think the second credits of Mario kart Wii should be number one
Haven't watched it yet, but we all know that wii credits 1 is winning. EDIT: Ok #10 is a crime tbh
It's a beautiful melody
LMAOOOOO
Wii Credits 1 is nowhere close to the best, sorry 🤷♂️ Thanks for watching though!
@@GWallPro its up there with ds, mkw credits 2 and the bcp for me
The GBA compression though
How on EARTH is MKDS only number 8?
WII STAFF CREDITS 2
9:06 not true at all lmao mario kart wii and 7 had a bunch, and probably the other games too
Great video
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed!
I gotta go mkwii second part so must nostalgia
Bro at least let us hear the song 😂
I like to have my own commentary with the song lightly playing in the background as opposed to just the song playing the whole time otherwise I think they diminishes the quality of the video. Though for future videos like this I could try to implement 5-6 seconds of the song playing alone in the beginning as opposed to 3 seconds which I used here. Appreciate the feedback!
@@GWallPro Don't worry I don't mind about you talking over the song I'm just saying I can barely catch the rhythm of the song as you talk over the song, Good video!
DS is waaaaaaaaaaaay too low. It actually brings tears to my eyes
Double Dash!! is meh?
Tsk Tsk!
Mario kart 64 is also really good
Agree!
SMK shoud not be that low, it gives the nostalgia and its a pretty cool tune, all the Arcade ones are not that momorable, Home Circuit feels like a generic movie credits, also Double Dash is honestly boring imo
You should post your own ranking here if you disagree so much. That’s what the comments section is for!
I wouldn't have included Tour. It's on mobile instead of a dedicated console so I treat it as a spin off. That's just my opinion
I guess we will see if the next MK is MK9 or MK10 to see whether Tour is a proper MK
how dare you disrespect my beloved mkwii credits 1 😭
How dare You say the Double Dash Credits are Meh!
1. Double Dash Credits.
2. 64 Credits.
3. Super Circuit Credits.
4. DS Credits.
5. Wii Credits.
6. 7 Credits.
7. SMK Credits.
8. 8 Credits.
9. 8DX Credits.
Hahaha that was literally just for the thumbnail! I love Double Dash’s credits as you would see by watching the video!
@@GWallPro Oh. I guess I should have Watched it before Judging. I did the same thing with the Mario Movie.
They are very dull and repetitive...
@@DittoGTI Which one?
@@ACAAllertor125 DD. Ur entire ranking is wrong imo
There is no way the 8DX Credits is better than N64.
Wii too low
I'm sorry but I cannot understand the appeal of the double dash credits theme. It's very boring, repetitive, and mundane.
