It's not as frantic but it's not as barren as I expected.
Aleady made for the DS. Nintendo really hates gba/snes retros lol
GAF + 200cc + Frantic = not going to be like that at all (fucking Bills everywhere man).
This comparison is silly, considering it's 8 racers, focusing on player 1 in like 50cc completely outdoing the AI.
Imagine 200cc with up to 12 players and anti-gravity boosting...
HOLY FUCK BABY PA-
shit, you're probably right. Clearly the track will be changed to be 10 laps and will have a special mechanic where you get 2 items per item box. Pls Nintendo.
Anyway, I'm hoping the other Nintendo-related courses are also based on other racing/driving franchises like Excitebike and Mute City are. So, maybe a Wave Race course and a Kirby's Air Ride course?

i'm convinced that they'd be willing to use a track that's already been a retro course to ensure we get another circuit or bowser's castle instead of a cool track
and bowser's castle 4 is the best gba bowser's castle so we can't get that either
this, I can't understand people toning down baby park because of missing items. I agree that some of those items meant a lot for that track, but the 200cc modify alone should be enough to enjoy it a lot
Ah. Yeah that's true. That track oozes from DD's uniqueness with items all over the place. Not I'm de-hyped. Ah well. I miss that game.
Also saw your post before too. Might as well bring hype down altogether. Eh.
Edit: and you can't snake either like DD/DS lol
Even if they managed to get the chaos going ( which is pretty obvious they can) with the lack of stand-still mini turbo and the overall slow accel thing in Mario Kart 8 it would be rather frustrating and unpleasant instead of "salty fun" if you know what I mean.
A single hit and you're fucking done, let alone being comboed.

Good point, if all the track is in anti-gravity and you have to bump into each other, this could be fun. But the unfairness of MK8 will make it more annoying than fun, I'm afraid.

Lmao that GameFAQs fake filename list is still going around? I can't believe it.
Why would you do that to me?
Goddammit, now it's gonna be impossible to keep hype in check for this year.
But, whether it's Metroid (and possible Samus' Gunship as vehicle), or a track based on trains, I'd be pretty happy with that.
And if they're gonna bring back Bowser shell, they should bring back the Chain Chomp and accompanying music as well.

People are bought into hype easily, even if there's no source people are going to go crazy about it.
See Metroid Dread, Diddy Kong Racing U and StarTropics reboot.
Wow you really hate GoNintendo don't you.
Anyway GoNintendo is actually referencing Neogaf for their article.
Nah it's over when you start overlapping with racers with triple bananas, shells, and plants...and stars....bills.
Nuff said
Fuck that shit!
My only hope is that the majority of the levels a tually USE the gravity gimmick. Despite being a massive selling point for Mario Kart 8, very few tracks even really use it to its fullest extent. Even the F-Zero track doesn't really have many twists and turns like GX did. the Animal Crossing track could have been in any Mario Kart game.
A new mode, featuring the craziest Double Dash items (Bowser Shell, Giant Banana, Yoshi Egg, Chain Chomp, etc) would be really fun.
I would be very upset if Baby Park got in, because that has been redone twice!
The Gamecube course that deserves to be brought back in all its HD glory is THIS BAD BOY HERE:
I would go nuts if this was in the DLC pack. Imagine the possibilities with Anti-Gravity! @.@
God damn this is true!! All the Wario themed tracks in Mario Kart = Quality and fun! Wario should just get it's own Kart game tbh.

Maybe it wouldn't have happened if we had more than two of the 8 courses revealed (Animal Crossing and a tiny screenshot of woods).
But for the sake of discussion is there proof of it being fake? I agree there isn't proof of being real and hey if it turns out mostly wrong then you know ideas do change through development, I would not be surprised if Baby park got dropped.
What I still can't believe is we're less than 2 weeks for this new DLC to drop in and we have seen literally nothing of the new tracks except the AC track (wich looks amazing obvs). What if they are holding to show something until next week because the tracks in this DLC are huge megatons. Like a Pac-Man based course... another Zelda course... a Starfox or Metroid course. Hnnnnghhh
Oh neat I missed this. Loved neo bowser city so definitely happy to see that back.
I hope with 200cc is brings back the 3 (or perhaps for 200cc, 4) starred emblem you got for start ranking all the tracks. Sucks you got nothing for doing that, was pretty disappointed discovering that
EDIT: Oh...that joy didn't last so long... :'(

It comes from a totally random November 14th 2014 post on GameFAQs' Mario Kart 8 board:
http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/700050-mario-kart-8/70566489#1
This person (Nin3DSFan) did not provide any valid source despite having been asked multiple times. Also,
http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/700050-mario-kart-8/71579110
It is very disappointing that some video game news websites as well as the author of this thread (Robin64) are not able to do basic source checking.

Baby Park at 200cc would be as chaotic as Double Dash's version which is a good thing. The DS version felt way too normal in comparision.
There you go...

Thanks. Guess that is case closed then.

Hey Nintendo, give us a taste damn it. A screen, a sound byte. Anything. lol
Yep Wario has all the best character tracks. Forgot about this one, but it's a gem too. Only clunker is the mine level.

But but but... we already have a better Baby Park... it's called Excitebike Arena...
That makes no sense to include it now.

I'm actually relieved those tracks turned out to be false. Means I still have a chance at being surprised by the DLC courses.
I'm trying not to get my hopes up, but you guys are making that difficult for me to do.
Awesome that Baby Park is returning if this is true.
EDIT: Oh, it's fake. Nevermind, then.
