Ranking Every Mario Kart Special Cup
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 7 มิ.ย. 2024
- Guess who's back again. It's time for another installment in my Mario Kart Ranking series, and this time we're looking at the Special Cups, home to many of Bowsers Castles and Rainbow Roads in the sky. You could call this a semi-final of sorts, as this is the final set of nitro cups before moving on to the long anticipated retro cups. It took me quite a bit of time to create this one, so I really hope you enjoy it!

Damn bruh I did the same thing in my notes 😎
Oml I got the pin!!!!!
@@SprainedSentinel ig thats where all the magic happens 🪄
Seeing my favorite game on number 3 is making me so happy :D
I genuinely would not be surprised if 7 wins every retro ranking
“DK’s Jungle Parkway wins the competition for weirdest track name.”
Mount Wario:
The only Mario Kart track name that’s also a command
@@jomaq9233Baby Park. You're asking a baby to park your car... Yes, that one is quite a stretch, but I don't care.
Nah, it’s between Mario Circuit, Mario Circuit, Mario Circuit, Mario Circuit, Mario Circuit and Mario Circuit
Music Park I mean a park made out of music? what logic does that make?@@riskyworks
He is fat, sooooo....
Putting DS below GBA isn't just a hot take, it's lava.
And I'm with him all the way. Super circuit has one of my favorite special cups.
@@gameplayboy5686eh. It has good tracks but everything is just so flat
Honestly DS is just such a painful experience I can’t even blame him
Channeling his inner Albert Boris lol
@@Sady845still incredibly good and fun track design. Those tracks even hold up well in mkwii via ctgp. Some of my favorite retros
If GBA Rainbow Road gets remade, I think they should put the movie version of Bowser's Castle in the background. It's pretty similar to Paper Mario's version, floating in the sky with Bowser's face on the front and having balls with chains. It's more relevant in the modern day, and has a more intimidating design, so it's perfect.
I wonder if they could legally do that, considering the movie was a collaboration with Illumination
@@jomaq9233don't quote me on this, but I read that nintendo owns the full rights to the movie.
@@spennywennyapproved by minion
That’s what I was thinking
That would be cool but I'd rather the Super Mario Bros. Move stays out of the games
Schaffrillis is about to call a hit on you.
3ds Bowser’s Castle intensifies
same
Nahh, I heard he encourages people to have different opinions.
@@mayoyobros9999so wholesome
Mario Kart 7's rainbow road is one of my favorite tracks in the entire series
Every 60 seconds in Africa a minute Passes
@@autismandgaming4532 what’s that got to to with anything
@@autismandgaming4532LMFAO
@@BobAnimate2k9this is probably one of the worst rainbow road. It's so plain
@@Sady845no he is stating that the OP's statement is very obvious, and what are you saying something completely unrelated. Also 3ds rainbow road is one of the best tracks in the series
My biggest issue with 8’s Rainbow Road is that it could’ve been SO much cooler. One super underrated aspect of 8 is that most of the nitro tracks (and some of the retros, like Toad’s Turnpike) take place in an interconnected city, imagine how good a Rainbow Road going through that city would be.
And the thing is, they literally did exactly that but it was with the 64 rainbow road.
@@cooltellow2739 I mean kinda but that was just a background thing
Wait they are?
Seriously, all the Deluxe version needed was a few crazy turns, loops and corkscrews, and it would've been perfect. But as is, you're just turning left and right save for the space station). And to think, that out of all the tracks in the game, this one would be the most underwhelming in terms of antigravity.
I like Banshee Boardwalk. There's something about its challenge and aesthetic that makes me enjoy it.
Same!!! I love how it’s a haunted poop deck
It has a great vibe.
Much like N64 Wario Stadium, I think a modern remake could really bring out its full untapped potential
YES@@jomaq9233. Both need remakes. If wario stadium from N64 is split into sections, Imma be pissed. It isn't that long to warrant it. Also the DS remake of Banshee boardwalk is just abysmal.
@@thetruedarkstar I mean, N64 Wario Stadium is 4 minutes long, so I could see it working as a 2 lap track (Mario Kart 8 tracks tend to be between 1 1/2 to 2 minutes long, on average)
7:35 it's funny how 8's trailers treated 64's Rainbow Road as a bigger deal than 8's Rainbow Road
cuz 8’s SUCKS SO BAD I HATE IT SM
I'm SO glad 8DX kept the meteor effect in Wii's Rainbow Road, even if for just a second before Lakitu comes to whisk you back to safety. it was such a neat bit of the original :)
It is here, I hope you can make more fun videos like these like ranking all the booster course cups or retro cups!
We know he's gonna rank the retro cups, but I don't think he'll rank the BCP cups
What do you know it’s another win for the amazing mario kart Wii
Also the schaffrillas part was funny
3.5/5 for ds bowser castle is crazy. best bowser castle track in the franchise
Eh.. the atmosphere is weird, the music isn't bad but not to bowsers castle standards, the only fun part is the spiral up to the top floor and the spinning platform and everything else doesn't really affect the gameplay.
Agreed!
*worst
(excluding SNES)
@@theog2306 7 is a good contender for that spot too, and actually now that I think about it they might be tied in terms of gameplay, but I like the music better.
@@theog230664 is the most intimidating too. The music is ominous and feels empty and desolated.
I'm soooooo happy this series is back. I've really enjoyed every episode so far!
18:09 Actually, this DOES make sense in the Mario Universe since Dry Bones are common enemies. Thus, multiple appear at the exact same time despite being the same character. And they're also skeletal versions of Koopas, which also have selectable slots in some of the Mario Spin-offs. So yeah. This tracks at the end of the day.
DS Special Cup in 6th is a war crime
Yes!
Mario kart ds has only 5 actually good tracks in the entire game and the special cup has 1 actually good track (peach gardens) at least.
YES!!!! I’ve been waiting for so long. Idc how long it takes for each one cause each time it makes me light up 🤩
it’s finally out this was worth the wait ik that either wii’s special cup or gcn’s special cup will win with how fantastic the track selection is
I've been eagerly waiting for the next Cup Ranking, glad it's out!
The reason for the ghost tracks to be mainly bridges is cause in Japan bridges are often associated with ghosts and are considered haunted places because of the high suicide rate of Japan, there's rumours of the spirits of those who jumped off haunting the bridges, and because of that, although bridges may not seem scary to us, they are in Japan
Later on they moved into the spooky mansion to please to a more worldwide audience rather than just some local thing
the wait was worth it 🔥
22:43 “Even the trees are alive too.” This game has so much charm. I wish trees in real life were also alive.
That’s unrealistic, though. And what would they even do? Photosynsethesis?
@@Aostrele I think you’re on to something there my friend. I’m hoping for Photosynthesis to be in the next update.
This man is the definition of hot takes
-smk bad
-mk7 rainbow road 5/5
-mk8 rainbow road bad
-wii in first place
yeah "hot takes"
@@ecstaticwooper368 3DS Rosalina’s Ice World and Cloudtop Cruise: allow us to introduce ourselves.
@@TheManOfManyNames. Ice world sure, but I would hardly call liking Cloudtop Cruise a "hot take"
@@ecstaticwooper368 fair, but there’s like five people who have CC as their fave
@@TheManOfManyNames. and even less who dislike it
YES! Right on time for my lunch! This is gonna be a good day :)
Wii and DS had some solid Special Cups, hoping to see 'em high!
My condolences
I’m glad you mentioned the no Thwomps in MK8 Bowsers Castle. No one really brings it up
Also, I feel like MK8’s Rainbow Road would’ve gotten way less disliked if it was a section track, I think some people found it weird that they reverted to using the usual lap system for Rainbow Road after giving it the section treatment in 7
Yeah, also the antigravity mechanic was extremely poorly used, the could have put loops like in Mario kart DS, or a straight down fall, but nope, you could deactivate the antigravity and wouldn't feel a change...
@@manupm9161Seriously, you're just turning left and right and left and right, it's so disappointing.
I’ve been waiting for this video to come out forever
You're supposed to use the sand pillar in bone dry dunes to make it to the top area. It's also easier to make it if you take the sand path instead of the anti grav bone path
About damn time!
Schafrillas is on his way to your house for putting DS special cup at 6
My most anticipated video finally dropped
It’s nice to see some Mario kart content again
I love how you view many of these tracks differently than Schaffrillas did!
15:45 to be fair most gba remakes lately have been pretty faithful when remaking the back grounds so I’m hopeful it’ll stay!
"most"
Gba Wilds has entered the chat
Finally, some cloudtop cruise appreciation
Whilst watching this I managed to correctly predict that the Mario Kart 8 special cup would be placed in the middle
I AGREE SO MUCH WITH YOU ABOUT CLOUDTOP CRUISE ITS SO GOOD!!
I actually really don’t like 3DS Rainbow Road. It’s not bad, but it’s really similar to 8s Rainbow Road to me, I prefer my Rainbow Roads to be just a genuine rainbow road, not connecting to planets or other stuff. Beyond this the layout just isn’t very interesting to me, it feels slow and boring.
Thank you for gifting me with the knowledge that there's a rainbow road song, I feel complete.
YAY I LOVE THIS SERIES
He returns!
UNFUNNY PEAK CAME BACK WITH IT 🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️
Babe wake up, new UnfunnyMeat Mario Kart cup ranking just dropped.
HE’S BACK
This was a great journey to watch these videos of the nitro cups ranked. I'm betting right now that Mario Kart DS will get fourth place in every Mario Kart retro cup ranking video, or at least, last place with the Shell Cups ranked.
The retro tracks are one of the many reasons on why mkds is worse than super mario kart.
@@Noshadesfunky You see Airship Fortress, you see Tick-Tock Clock, you see Waluigi Pinball, you see DS Rainbow Road, you see Banshee Boardwalk, you see Boston Building but you pick playing on a selection that includes 4 unoriginal circles.
Boston building is the only good one you listed. The rest just purely focus on aesthetics with bad gameplay.
@@Noshadesfunky I’d take this over 4 circles
@@Noshadesfunky Seriously, I honestly believe you would love most of these courses if they were Wii tracks.
FINALLY THE SPECIAL CUP RANKING
W video oomfie
YES CLOUD TOP CRUISE LOVE! Definitely my favorite nitro in the game just edging out Bone-Dry Dunes.
Cloudtop Cruise is amazing. I'm also surprised it doesn't get more praise.
glad to see a take that doesn’t meatride ds
Double Dash's special cup is my favorite. So much variety.
He’s back!
I love the intro
I can’t believe you ranked Dingo Dingo Derby only 0.5 higher, literally gonna go to your house and steal all your mortal possessions
Cloud Top Cruise is definitely one of my favorite tracks too!
It's been 84 years
Worth it
Mario Kart Wii was my first Mario Kart and will probably stay my favorite for a long time
goodness this is underrated asf
Loved the PBG style Rainbow Road song haha
Thank you! I find Cloudtop Cruise to be the coolest Track in Mk8
Schaffrillas Productions is not going to be happy about the DS slander.
Im really happy with the mkds slander
@@Noshadesfunky huh?
And with Unfunny Meat defending 3DS Bowser’s Castle.
I remember sitting down on a warm winter night playing Wii Rainbow road with my cousins, of course, we never advanced at all because of it's difficulty, but it was still fun, looking at Mario become a meteor 57 times in a row.
The king has returned at last!!!
20:50 it’s true it doesn’t feel like it, but if you get a big overview of the track the entire last section is very vertical compared to the rest, I know it’s hard to tell but I think that’s pretty cool.
What an unbiased ranking
Finally!!!!!!!
Thank you, meat
It's back
You should rank every Propeller Cup. It’s totally worth it!
I love that video
"Did you think I would put mario kart wii first twice in a row" - unfunny meat, flower cup ranking
can't wait for the next annual installment where he puts Mario Kart Wii at the top, AGAIN!
Schaffrillas:You tell Unfunny Meat that he'll never eat lunch in this town again
Epic
LET'S A-GOOOOOOOOOOOO
Schaff's gonna be pisssssssedddd
28:28 this aged like fine wine
It's finally here Bois
no way after 58 bajillion years the video came out ‼️
I love watching these with my fiance and "complaining" about your choices (even though I agree with them for the most part)
Oh also according to the Mario Kart 64 manual, it's "restless natives" that throw the coconuts at you in DK Jungle Parkway
"I assure you that this year there's gonna be way more of these episodes coming out, especially considering that the retro cups won't take as long as the nitro cups" maybe he meant next year
Babe wake up the new unfunny meat video just dropped
Do you have any tips for editing videos? I really loved the way you styled the video, it wss very entertaining
When u rank the retro cups are u gonna make a separate video on the booster course pass tracks?
ROSALINASSSSSS ICE WORLD, YESSSS!!!! BEST MK OST EVER!!! Instant sub for your factual opinion
Some things about the U Special Cup.
Cloudtop Cruise is a fan favourite, it is just not talked about because DLC is newer.
To get to the upper wooden part in Bone Dry Dunes, you need to hit the sand geyser.
I checked and yep he is right about the thwomps.
And 21:24 There should be an apostrophe in Bowser's Castle.
Imagine when GBA RR gets remade it has Bowser from Wonder in the background.
LET'S GOOO 👑
14:56 Wait did this boost panel move forward before you drove on it??
W UNFUNNY
I'm gonna be controversial, no, I don't actually enjoy MK7's rainbow road that much. I think it's visually beautiful as a huge space nerd, but it's so underwhelming to drive on. What I expect from a special cup, and especially a rainbow road is that the tracks are either filled with obstacles that you have to learn the rhythm of (like the cars on moonview highway), or that it has a lot of difficult turns that you absolutely *can* learn, but where it takes a lot of practise to master. Frankly, I've never felt challenged by MK7's rainbow road (and this is the same problem I have with Rosalinas ice world) in any regard besides if I get physically pushed off by other players. If I can't even feel that I'm getting better at a track the more that I play it, I honestly think it's really boring. Which is why I specifically love MKWii's rainbow road above all else, because it took me so much practising for me to not fall off the track within the first 20 seconds.
If MK7's rainbow road was as challenging as it's beautiful, it might've stolen my heart, but it's literally so easy that I just can't be a fan of it beyond its visual appeal
i saw the notification for this and dropped my phone holy shit
One thing I’ll take offense to is ranking the 7 Bowsers Castle higher than the Wii one, 7BC is imo the worst non-flat bowser course like it just has nothing
WiiU Bowser’s Castle is my favorite Bowser Castle in the whole series. I’d give it a 5/5.
mushroom bridge is my favorite it NEEDS to be in wave 6 sane with dino dino jungle and daisy crusier yeah i like gcn courses
6th best for me
@@OverheatedInferno Mushroom Bridge isn't a Bowser Castle so why do you mention it under a comment about this guy's favorite Bowser Castle?
@@XPGrindDeathking idk lol
That awkward moment when bro altered the timeline and got Bowser's Castle 3 in the game.
Once the booster course pass wraps up you have to rank the cups from the booster course pass I think it would make an amazing video
I share the same sentiment on Wario Colosseum. How this track wasn't included in Mario Kart 8 from the beginning is beyond me.
I Like It And It's Good The Nostagic Theme Of Remix And It's On 0 Gravity 10/10
Cloudtop Cruise is so underrated indeed! That’s my favorite, actually!
18:31 well, to get onto that platform, You need to bounce off of the spewing sandpillar to reach that.
Another way to get up to that platform is to be on the antigrav section and go to the furthest right side before the glider ramp. When you start to glide, just don’t steer or pull up or down. You will even out and make it up there. You get the pay off of a double box on antigrav and one more item on the platform. Hope this helps.
YAAAAAAAAY!
FINALLY
