Favorite Mario Kart courses?

**Valigarmander** · 08-22-2010, 06:03 PM

In the entire series, what courses have been your favorite?

In the original Super Mario Kart, I think my favorite tracks were the Mario Circuits and Ghost Valleys. The Choco Island and Bowser's Castle levels were fun too. In Mario Kart 64, I enjoyed the two snow levels, as well as Choco Mountain and Bowser's Castle. Rainbow Road was good if a little bit boring, but the music was awesome. In Double Dash!!, I think I liked Dry Dry Desert and Bowser's Castle the most. For Mario Kart Wii, my favorite stages are Maple Treeway, Grumble Volcano, and the entire Special Cup. I've never played Super Circuit, and I've barely played DS, so there's not much I can say about them.

Overall I usually like the desert- and ice-themed levels from each game. The ghost-themed ones are usually fun. The roadway ones are interesting in multiplayer due to the huge cars always coming down the road. And the Bowser's Castle and Rainbow Road levels are always some of the funnest in each game. What're your faves?

For Super Mario Kart, I tended to like the Koopa Beach stages the most, especially the one where you skirted over the water for a huge shortcut

MK 64 has to be Toad's Turnpike, since it's so different from the others.

Never Played MK GBA

Double Dash has to be Baby Park, because I R Dumb and like s**t flying everywhere.

The DS one has to be Tick Tock Clock. I especially like that you can ride the gears at the end of a lap for a little shortcut.

Never played MK Wii, but from what I see Wario's Gold Mine is p. cool.

I can't speak for SMK, as I have not had the chance to play it, but I can give my opinion on the other games.

MK64: Rainbow Road, Koopa Beach
MKSC: Sky Garden
MKDD: DK Mountain
MKDS: Tick Tock Clock
MKWii: Koopa Cape (thank you, Luigiman)

I voted for Rainbow Road, Bowser's Castle, and Roadway.

Luigiman7 · 08-22-2010, 07:05 PM

^Koopa Cape.

Maple Treeway. Also, Bowser Castle levels.

Jungle and ice are my least favorite.

cool.

Microphone_Kirby · 08-22-2010, 08:14 PM

I thoroughly enjoy any course that begins with "Bowser". >:]
"City" and "Ghost" Courses are usually fun as well.

Rainbow Dash · 08-22-2010, 09:31 PM

I really like Coconut Mall in Mario Kart Wii. It's kinda fun to see your miis riding around in the cars near the end. (It's extra funny when you see Beavis and Butthead riding in there. :B or Borat)

I liked Choco Island and Bowser's Castle from the original... and Koopa Beach was pretty cool.

DK Mountain and Rainbow Road from Double Dash.

***Cosmonautical*** · 08-23-2010, 06:03 AM

First SMK, I really like the first and second Bowser's Castle levels, the first Ghost House, and the ice level that goes around the lake. And the Mario Circuit one that has the loop around to the big jump over the earlier portion of the track. Great stuff.

In MK64, I like most of the courses. Favorites are Wario Stadium, Choco Island, and Frappe Snowland.

Sooooo, you're missing the Choco Island theme, Val.

**Valigarmander** · 08-23-2010, 06:27 AM

THEY WERE ONLY IN LIKE TWO GAMES MAN

***Cosmonautical*** · 08-23-2010, 07:03 AM

Um, weren't they at least in SMK, MK64, MKSC, and MKDS?

**Valigarmander** · 08-23-2010, 07:08 AM

SMK had Choco Island, MK64 had Choco Mountain. MK:SC and MKDS both had levels from the original SMK.

and that doesn't count

***Cosmonautical*** · 08-23-2010, 07:11 AM

MKDS had the level from the MK64.

Does too count, Val.

I am nobody · 08-23-2010, 07:37 AM

SMK: Mario Circuit (or whatever it was called)
MK64: Wario Stadium
MKDD: Baby Park (lapping the bad AI is fun) or Waluigi Stadium
MKDS: DK Mountain or Wario Stadium

Never played the GBA game and I hated most of MK Wii.

Sim Kid · 08-23-2010, 09:30 AM

^ And in MKDD, it's also pretty fun to make absolute chaos ensue in Baby Park.

**Valigarmander** · 08-23-2010, 11:43 AM

Yeah, pretty much the only fun thing about Baby Park was the absolute chaos.

Luigiman7 · 08-23-2010, 09:30 PM

Yeah, the absolute chaos.

Mario271 · 08-24-2010, 12:35 PM

Jungle, Beach, Bowser's Castle, and Rainbow Road.

Also, Baby Park ROCKS...I play that course with my friends all the time.
