I don't really care what the tracks are, But Toad's Factory NEEDS to be in it. If Toad's Factory is NOT in it we RIOT. Also I'd love to see DS Rainbow Road! My favorite Rainbow Road and I really want it to make a return! (Also I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought it looked like Radiator Springs XD)
@ fr and you didn’t even mention Wii Bowser’s Castle, Wii Luigi Circuit, N64 Koopa Troopa Beach, N64 Sherbet Land, and GCN Mario Circuit along with GCN Mushroom City Btw I grew up with Mario Kart Wii
Here's some retro predictions I picked and I would try to pick whatever hasn't been picked from Mushroom to Special Cup based on the past Mario Kart Games. Heres mine Shell Cup DS Figure 8 Circuit (I mean come on, we did get DS Mario Circuit but it was bound to happen since not a single DS Circuit was ever remade until BCP and Tour back in 2023!) 3DS Daisy Hills (this is the only one I could think off even though I actually haven't played Mario Kart 7 for a while) Tour Piranha Pipeline (this NEEDS to come in! Why was this just thrown out into a waste bin?!) Wii Toad's Factory (last track of Wii Mushroom Cup that has been ASKED to come in and I want to see the justice here!) Banana Cup Wii Mario Circuit (most Flower Cups started Mario Circuits except for SNES & N64. Mario Circuit was the LAST Flower Cup track in Mario Kart 64) Wii U Toad Harbour SNES Donut Plains 2 but with more suprises if possible 3DS Wuhu Loop Leaf Cup N64 Wario Stadium SNES Vanilla Lake 1 GBA Yoshi Desert GCN Mushroom City Lighting Cup (probably my HARDEST PICK) 3DS Wario Shipyard SNES Ghost Valley 3 GCN Bowser's Castle (better SNES 1, SNES 2, GBA 4, GCN, DS, Wii and 3DS, I picked GCN. Better luck next time DS and Wii Bowser's Castle) GBA Rainbow Road (looking at SNES in MK7, N64 in MK8, GBA Rainbow Road has to come in and if there is a DLC, GCN must be next on the list!) Now time for my Retro Battle Course Predictions SNES Battle Course 2 GBA Battle Course 4 (For SNES Battle Course 2 and 4, I would love to see how they would handle the 2 underrated water battle courses. I know MKSC Battle is SEVERELY UNDERPLAYED due to link cabled being limited to play but with NSO, that made it possible. Also please Nintendo, DON'T BUTCHER the music with GBA Battle Course 4 since Yoshi Desert should come. If they butcher the music like how they did with 3DS Wuhu Town, I am going to SCREAM! I will get there at some point) GCN Tilt A Mario DS Tart Top (replace Wii U Sweet Sweet Canyon/NS Sweet Sweet Kingdom) Wii Chain Chomp Roulette 3DS Honeybee Hive (I was excited to play Wuhu Town but I was HEAVILY DISAPPOINTED with the INCORRECT MUSIC and environment with the day instead of night. I know this is a nickpick but still!! I'm STILL PISSED OFF with how Nintendo butchered Sky Garden in the Booster Course Pass more than I am with Sunset Wilds!!! I hope the 3DS Battle Course remix isn't going to flop like "GBA" Sky Garden and Sunset Wilds) What are your Battle Course predictions Brandon and Jammie?
My retro selection has 6 base game cups instead of 4. I distributed it like this 1 Tour 1 SNES 2 N64 2 GBA 3 GCN 3 DS 3 Wii 3 3DS 6 Wii U I also chose three second-time retros; one from DS, one from Wii and one from 7. I added 2 cups, one between shell and banana, and one between leaf and lightning.

Actually very reasonable and objective predictions for the most part, like it feels very Nintendo-esque, rather than personal picks. Props to believing we're only getting 16 base retros too - the perfect amount imo. I went down a similar objective route with my predictions; I'll answer any questions or comments on these. ◇Retro Lineup◇ 🐢Shell🐢 - DS Figure-8 Circuit - SNES Koopa Beach 1 - 3DS Shy Guy Bazaar - Wii U Sunshine Airport 🍌Banana🍌 - Wii Mario Circuit - SNES Vanilla Lake 1 - Wii U Toad Harbor - Tour Piranha Plant Pipeline 🍂Leaf🍂 - N64 Wario Stadium - GBA Lakeside Park - Wii U Twisted Mansion - 3DS Maka Wuhu ⚡Lightning⚡ - GCN Mushroom City - Wii U Dragon Driftway - Wii Bowser's Castle - GBA Rainbow Road ◇Battle Retro Lineup◇ DS Tart Top GBA Battle Course 4 NS Lunar Colony Wii Block Plaza (unlockable) N64 Double Deck (unlockable)
@StandardKarting it's cause their both in the shape of an 8 & they're both from 3D Mk games 7 & 8 had a 3d & 2d Circuit in their retro lineup 7 did Luigi Raceway & MC2 8 did GBA MC & Royal Raceway I'd replace MC with GBA Peach Circuit

Agree with most of this list. But dry dry ruins over yoshi desert, if anything nintendo is a mario kart wii glazer, i'd actually put mario kart stadium over figure 8 circuit since it is more interesting by a ton. Also i know airship fortress has already been remade but they could do it again, and mt wario beats out electrodrome, its arguably mk8's iconic track.
No please no!! 32 tracks are outdated!! We need more content since the start 48 or even 64 courses!! The next mk needs to change a lot or won't sell like 8DX!!
Toads factory deserves to be in the game considering its popularity.
Flower cup will always be 2nd in my heart. ❤
It will be, most likely the showcase track
What I hope more, is for the light-weights to come back with a vengeance
On God, it's time for Dry Bones meta!
Honestly we need this change. Because it’s always the medium and heavy weights that get the attention
I don't really care what the tracks are, But Toad's Factory NEEDS to be in it. If Toad's Factory is NOT in it we RIOT. Also I'd love to see DS Rainbow Road! My favorite Rainbow Road and I really want it to make a return! (Also I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought it looked like Radiator Springs XD)
Toad's Factory is going to be a showcase track I reckon!
Bro mentioned all those tracks but didn’t mention DS Delfino Square, Luigi’s Mansion, and Airship Fortress😂
Because they probably won't come back until the DLC haha
Appreciate the DS love though!
@ who knows, maybe,
There fan favorites
@ fr and you didn’t even mention Wii Bowser’s Castle, Wii Luigi Circuit, N64 Koopa Troopa Beach, N64 Sherbet Land, and GCN Mario Circuit along with GCN Mushroom City
Btw I grew up with Mario Kart Wii
@asafjuarez1 we did mention GCN Mushroom City, and bringing back every other Wii track 😂😂😂
Here's some retro predictions I picked and I would try to pick whatever hasn't been picked from Mushroom to Special Cup based on the past Mario Kart Games. Heres mine

DS Figure 8 Circuit (I mean come on, we did get DS Mario Circuit but it was bound to happen since not a single DS Circuit was ever remade until BCP and Tour back in 2023!)
3DS Daisy Hills (this is the only one I could think off even though I actually haven't played Mario Kart 7 for a while)

Now time for my Retro Battle Course Predictions
SNES Battle Course 2
GBA Battle Course 4
(For SNES Battle Course 2 and 4, I would love to see how they would handle the 2 underrated water battle courses. I know MKSC Battle is SEVERELY UNDERPLAYED due to link cabled being limited to play but with NSO, that made it possible.

What are your Battle Course predictions Brandon and Jammie?
We'll be discussing those very soon 🤐, good retro predictions though!
My retro selection has 6 base game cups instead of 4. I distributed it like this
1 Tour
1 SNES
2 N64
2 GBA
3 GCN
3 DS
3 Wii
3 3DS
6 Wii U
I also chose three second-time retros; one from DS, one from Wii and one from 7.
I added 2 cups, one between shell and banana, and one between leaf and lightning.
Shell-
DS Figure-8 Circuit
3DS Daisy Hills
U Sweet Sweet Canyon
Wii Toad's Factory
New1-
GCN (Wii) Peach Beach
3DS Shy Guy Bazaar
Wii Mario Circuit

New2-
Wii Dry Dry Ruins
GBA Lakeside Park
U Electrodrome
GCN Bowser's Castle
Lightning-
N64 (DS) Banshee Boardwalk
U Cloudtop Cruise
3DS Maka Wuhu
DS Rainbow Road
I think Nintendo does care about completing themes/retros, but the BCP proves they're in no rush.
I would scream for Banshee Boardwalk, one of my absolute favourites!!!
We have decently similar predictions
Actually very reasonable and objective predictions for the most part, like it feels very Nintendo-esque, rather than personal picks. Props to believing we're only getting 16 base retros too - the perfect amount imo. I went down a similar objective route with my predictions; I'll answer any questions or comments on these.
◇Retro Lineup◇

I can't see Sunshine in Shell and Twisted in Leaf, but that doesn't mean I wouldn't want to see them!
Figure 8 Circuit & Wii Mario Circuit in the same game my ass
Two circuit tracks isn't exactly unrealistic?
@StandardKarting it's cause their both in the shape of an 8 & they're both from 3D Mk games
7 & 8 had a 3d & 2d Circuit in their retro lineup
7 did Luigi Raceway & MC2
8 did GBA MC & Royal Raceway
I'd replace MC with GBA Peach Circuit
If there’s no Toad Factory the fans shall rage 😂
If there's no Toad Factory we will all riot!!
@StandardKartingjust wait for DLC only if it were to ever make the cut
If Bill Board isn’t a character, I’ll rage
i agree with all of these tbh but what about snes mario circuit 4, gba bowser castle 4, and shy guy bazaar
Probably further DLC, I can see them all coming back eventually but we need to go easy on the amount of desert tracks as they have to fill a quota!
@StandardKarting id replace yoshi desert with dry dry ruins
My personal retro picks (going for a 5 cup setup):
Shell cup:
DS Figure-8 Circuit
3DS Daisy Hills
SNES Koopa Beach 1
Wii U Thwomp Ruins
Banana cup:
3DS Shy Guy Bazaar
SNES Vanilla Lake 1
Wii Toad’s Factory
N64 Wario Stadium
Plant cup:
Wii U Sunshine Airport
GBA Broken Pier
GCN Mushroom City
Tour Piranha Plant Pipeline
Leaf cup:
GCN Wario Colosseum
SNES Mario Circuit 4
Wii U Shy Guy Falls
GBA Lakeside Park
Lightning cup:
Wii Dry Dry Ruins
3DS Maka Wuhu
GCN Bowser’s Castle
GBA Rainbow Road
I think the non city Tour maps in 8 Deluxe also stand a chance at returning as Switch retros due to Nintendo not giving them the Tour prefix.
And I also have some battle courses in mind:
N64 Double Deck
Wii Funky Stadium
3DS Sherbet Rink
Tour New York Minute B
Tour Paris Promenade B
I can actually see all of these happening, I guess it's just whatever Nintendo decides to do!
Agree with most of this list. But dry dry ruins over yoshi desert, if anything nintendo is a mario kart wii glazer, i'd actually put mario kart stadium over figure 8 circuit since it is more interesting by a ton. Also i know airship fortress has already been remade but they could do it again, and mt wario beats out electrodrome, its arguably mk8's iconic track.
Nintendo is a HUGE Wii glazer but surely Yoshi Desert has been snubbed enough!!
You scored 22 points out of 32.

No please no!! 32 tracks are outdated!! We need more content since the start 48 or even 64 courses!! The next mk needs to change a lot or won't sell like 8DX!!
I reckon it starts with 32 and every two months we get 16 more, until we end up with a good number!
Clickbait
How so?
It says every mario kart 9 confirmed track yet the only confirmed track is mario bros circuit
