[Let’s Talk] Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Booster Course Pass DLC wave 1 impressions

It’s crazy to think that after five years, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe has started to receive some major content. Nintendo kicked off the game’s brand new Booster Course Pass this week. Two cups – with four tracks each – were added a day or so go. The fun doesn’t stop there, as we’ll be getting seven more waves by the end of 2023. With 48 remastered tracks coming to Mario Kart 8 Deluxe in total, needless to say there’s a lot to look forward to.

With the first wave of the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Booster Course Pass DLC having been dropped, how many of you have given the new tracks a shot? What are your thoughts? Which courses do you personally want to see added in the future? Let us know in the comments below.

Highlights from last week’s topic: Your dream Switch collection

Phantasy Star collection – I-IV, Gaiden, Adventure, and II Text Adventures

Vinicius

Glory of Heracles. All games in the series ((NES, SNES, GB and DS), a few QoL stuff and all games translated.

Xenosaga (as a bonus add the DS game that was a mix of 1 and 2)

Little Tail Bronx Collection (Tail Concerto and Solatorobo)

Baten Kaitos Collection Both BK games, gallery with all the art for the series, sound room (like Smash it allows us to listen to it anywhere), demo for the Origins DS port (or the whole game if it was finished) and all the art for BK 3 that is hidden in Namco’s vault.

Gex’ Re-Run Trilogy – all three games remade in the Luminous engine. Or maybe whatever engine Arzest used for Balan can be salvaged. Gex was always a slower paced platformer anyway.

The Mario RPGs: SMRPG, Paper Mario, and the Mario and Luigi Series. A complete collection would be crazy, but as individual packaged series would be more than appreciated.

Considering Alpha Dream is most likely done with Mario & Luigi, a collection of all of them in a complete package would be great.

Then there’s Paper Mario.

Despite the mixed reception of later titles, a collection of all of them would be very interesting considering how many different directions it took. Although, I wouldn’t mind two collections separating change in direction. The fact that the original Paper Mario was called SMRPG 2 in commercials before release makes me want a paper rendition of SMRPG to add on top. I would LOVE a remake of SMRPG with added content.

The strangest one of the bunch is Paper Jam. Should it be considered a PM title or left as part of the M&L collection?

Rare replay but swap out the og Xbox and 360 games for donkey Kong stuff and star fox adventures
