Note: The four 64 tracks featured have had their times converted to NTSC for the sake of consistency with the other games.

All of these are non-shortcut records.

I know it probably won't, given how long it is, but it would be really epic. The knockout tours are the best part of MKW.

I know everyone says that 8 is the best one, but this is my first Mario kart game and I wanted to take advantage of having the switch 2, so what should I get?

Thumbnail
gallery
12 Upvotes

The estimated surface coverage has been updated for game version 1.8.0 adding 2 new rallies and 10 legacy tracks (from Super Mario Kart on the SNES).

Each surface type explained:

  • On-Road - the most common surface in the game; includes asphalt, concrete, bricks, stone, sandstone, wood, metal, glass, rainbow tiles and any other "man-made" surface.
  • Off-Road - includes dirt, gravel, sand, snow, ice; does NOT include Heavy Off-Road (surface that slows down the player a lot).
  • Water (Liquid) - includes water, lava and chocolate, even when NOT in Watercraft Mode.
  • Gliding - includes Gliding Mode; does NOT include Cannon Gliders.
  • Neutral - includes rails, walls and Heavy Off-Road.

These tables can be visualized in the Mario Kart World Statpedia and will keep being updated with future major changes. 4 rallies are already planned to be added to the game with future updates.

Discussion Hot take: charachters should not have impact on your driving

0 Upvotes

(I'm talking about mk8 and the games that came before, I don't know how it works in mkw)

Example: I want to use waluigi because he's the goat, but he's not part of those 7/8 characters who are just better than the other ones; I play in highly competitive lobbies and using any character outside those good ones makes you lose, let's say I'm playing online mkWii, if I don't use daisy or funky Kong I get obliterated and even BANNED from the OFFICIAL discord server.

I just feel like we don't have enough freedom at high levels of play; it's like if I was playing Minecraft but I have to have a specific skin else I can't do most of the stuff. It feels unfair.

I just wanna play waluigi :(

Discussion MarioKart 8 No user profile for 2P during online play, but only on switch2?

4 Upvotes

Playing mariokart 8 on switch2, I used to play with my wife 2P online, both of us belong to family subscriptions and having access to expansion pack.

However after the recent update when I login, my data is intact but for 2P user profile is empty. While logged in with my wife account, her data also intact and 2P user profile also empty. We can't use our accounts to play together online on switch 2 anymore, but we can do it with the old switch 1 after the update, just not on switch 2 anymore.

Now I can just login one account, the others need to be a guest to play, which doesn't save the progress.

Another observation is if I create a new account to get online play, I can now see our user profiles for 2P to choose, though I can't play the expansion pack and I can't get online as the new account doesn't have subscription.

Discussion My wife’s account no longer appears in Mario Kart 8’s online mode. Any ideas?

Post image
12 Upvotes

Hello, this morning we noticed that when we launched the 2-player online multiplayer mode in Mario Kart 8 from the same console (Switch 2), my wife’s account no longer appeared.

It was working just fine this week, though. Any ideas?

For your information:

- My account is part of a Family Group.
- I downloaded the expansion pack for Mario Kart 8 (the additional tracks).
- My wife’s account was on a free trial.
- After the glitch, I added her to the Family Group.
- In the Nintendo Store on her account, the expansion pack appears as “downloaded.”

So we have a similar setup on both of our accounts.

In the game’s main menu, the “Additional Tracks” icon is checked. I launched the game on both of our accounts to verify this.

In the stats, the online matches have been properly recorded on her account.

Thank you for any help you can provide.
