DK Mountain vs. Dino Dino Jungle | Which Will Come to Wave 6? 

I find it very funny that the "Second Course of the Last Cup in a Row" thing ended up being true... but for Rosalina's Ice World instead. It was right under our noses all along...

You didn't think I'd forget about the winner on the poll, did you? Hope you'll all enjoy the final Booster Course Pass prediction video, that I'll make possibly!

The fact that they are adding both Diddy and Funky Kong could be an indicator for DK mountain, in the same way Birdo launched alongside Yoshi’s island

Kinda interesting, I used to be wanting Dino jungle, but now I really want dk mountain.

Ah yes the greatest debate in any Mario Kart chat rn

SuperMan Vs Goku who? Nah fam; big monke hill vs big lizard forest 💀 For real tho, I'm hoping for DK Mountain, since it'd go with DK Summit really nicely. (I'm also wishing for Mushroom Bridge, since it's my favorite DD course, but I won't be surprised if it's something else 😔)

When the Booster Course Pass came out, I assumed Dino Dino Jungle would’ve been a safe bet but over time, but I really like that it flipped in DK Mountain’s favor as it’s my favorite track of all time and didn’t think it had a chance originally. Now there’s too much evidence pointing towards DK Mountain that I’d be surprised if it was still Dino Dino Jungle. Also I do think it’s possible Mushroom Bridge was still planned but nearing the end of Tour’s rendering developments, they instead decided on bringing back Moonview Highway as a traffic course replacement and then to not have both of them, also put in Wii Daisy Circuit. Imo I would’ve loved both Moonview Highway and Mushroom Bridge since traffic courses are always fun but it is what it is.

Welp, we emerged victorious in the end.

Dk! Donkey Kong! Dk! Dk mountain is here!

Honesty I’m not counting out Mushroom Bridge. Aside from the fact that Nintendo has already made the bomb car asset used in the track, its more recent inclusion in Tour and Moonview Highway being seemingly moved out of Wave 6 (perhaps to not clash with another car course), I think Nintendo likes to surprise us and do what we’re not expecting. There have been so many out of left field decisions made for the pass which seemingly don’t make sense that the inclusion of Mushroom Bridge over a Jungle course wouldn’t even be a big shock to me. I still think the other GCN courses have just as much chance to get in, but all I’m saying is Mushroom Bridge is still very much on the table Edit: just to clarify this reply isn’t me “coping” because I want Mushroom Bridge, it’s actually the GCN track I want the least and I’d much prefer a Jungle course. I’m just laying all the facts on the table and saying that Mushroom Bridge has just as much chance to get in as the others

Video idea: what was the original plan for the booster course pass? Using the prefix leak, guess what their plan was and why they changed it.

It's gotta be DK Mountain. Please.

Imagine Nintendo throws a curveball like “You wanted either Dino Dino Jungle, or DK Mountain. Too bad, here’s GCN Mario Circuit”.

Well DK Mountain is coming because I took a closer look at the banner leak and I saw DK Mountain. So DK Mountain is coming. Yay.

Another video from Albert Boris. Absolutely kingly!!! As Secretary of DK Mountain I'm obviously biased towards the angry mountain, I love that track,but I wouldn't be mad if we got dinodino.

DK MOUNTAIN

Love the content! More people should watch you.

With just 1 wave to go and potentially just the one surprise left, it was an amazing journey to take with this channel, in my opinion the best one to cover the Booster Course Pass Here's hoping that Mario Kart 9 comes sooner than Booster Course Pass 2

Putting my biased for DK Mountain aside, there's just more pointing towards DK Mountain coming over Dino Dino Jungle. The past 2 waves heck the entire BCP has shown how much they love adding Wii nitros and tracks that were retros in Wii, and DK Mountain also got half-pipes which Nintendo has loved adding since wave 3, and DK Mountain also got remade more recently than Dino Dino Jungle and we have seen a very little amount of og Tour retros this year. Not to mention the amount they could sell on nostalgia for DK Mountain. Edit: I also believe Mushroom Bridge was never planned. It would've only made sense for wave 4 and even then, why would they release a track like Waluigi Stadium, then Mushroom Bridge? I believe the original GCN placements were Waluigi Stadium in wave 3, Daisy Cruiser in wave 4, DK Mountain in wave 5, and then Dino Dino Jungle in wave 6, and now Nintendo replaced one of the jungles since they'd now be in the same wave, making them choose between DK Mountain and DDJ.

Dang I loved how that other RU-vidr whatever his name was was sort of in this video

with how accurate youve been this is just an official announcment on what track is coming

If they make a BCP 2, which is very unlikely though, it would be nice to see Dino Dino Jungle in Wave 3 or Wave 5, assuming this hypothetical DLC would have 6 waves too.

Honestly, I‘d go with DK Mountain, in terms of using retros from 2022 onwards, but Dino Dino Jungle wouldn’t be a bad choice either. For the selection, I only chose this order because I wanted to switch it up to make it feel more interesting: For the Acorn Cup: Tour Rome Avanti Wii Daisy Circuit Piranha Plant Cove (Tour) And GCN DK Mountain And for the Spiny Cup: Tour Madrid Drive Piranha Plant Pipeline (Tour) - Like before, if a rename was possible, then Warp Pipe Canyon would definitely work SNES Bowser Castle 3 And Wii Rainbow Road

I made a bet with my brother that DK Mountain would make the cut over Dino Dino Jungle. So for my sake at least, it better make it in.

Great video Albert Boris! Yeah, What’s even more funny is that I’ve been thinking about it too. There’s another reason why DK Mountain is getting over Dino Dino Jungle. The remake of DK Mountain is WAY more recent than Dino Dino Jungle. When looking at the rendered dates, DK Mountain was around late 2022, whereas Dino Dino Jungle was in 2019 around the year Mario Kart Tour came out. Why is this mentioned and somehow important? It is because of the bias towards MKT’s newer retro courses from the Waves 4 and 5. When we look back at Waves 1-3, those courses from long ago were from 2019. Ever since then, the DLC as of now has been HUGELY centered around 2022-2023. Only 2 of the courses from Waves 4, 5 and definitely 6 were released in Tour prior around 2022. Neither of those 2 outliers in a 2019 course. Dino Dino Jungle would be VERY out of place in Wave 6 when almost nearly ALL courses were from 2022-2023. So yeah, with all of that said. Here are my Wave 6 predictions + course file names. *ACORN CUP* Tour Rome Avanti (Cnsw_54) Wii Daisy Circuit (Cnsw_66) GCN DK Mountain (Cnsw_56) Piranha Plant Cove (Cnsw_64) *SPINY CUP* Tour Madrid Drive (Cnsw_51) Piranha Plant Pipeline (Cnsw_67) SNES Bowser’s Castle 3 (Cnsw_57) Wii Rainbow Road (Cnsw_68)

Dang, was hoping for dino jungle! But since you picked dk mountain and somehow got Mario circuit and daisy circuit right then I guess it's gotta be mountain lol

Rewatching this to see how it aged and Dino Dino Jungle being the second track of a cup theory fell apart even more now that DK Mountain rubbed more salt in the wound with it being the second track of the Acorn Cup instead of the 3rd or 4th track now lol Next game it returns, watch it’ll be the first track of the cup.

I really hope Dino Dino jungle gets picked!

Imagine if they trolled us and added Mushroom Bridge to replace Wii Rainbow Road

Honestly, I wouldn't mind. I love the cannon gimmick of DK Mountain, but I also love the track layout of Dino Dino Jungle

DK Mountain, and I think it will be the final track in the last cup considering the Kongs were the big piece here. That or it's a new DK themed track altogether

Two tracks similar culture! I love both DKM on Wii and DDJ on 3ds! Honestly I would pick DKM because you keep going up and down 3 times

Great video! Great analysis of everything! I have one argument against Snes Bowser's Castle 3 tho.. You know the pillars at the start of athens? In Tour there are 3 thin pillars in various positions and they made them into two more stable and wide ones. The section in Snes Bowser's Castle 3 with the walls seemed too thin for 8 Deluxe for me personally. I don't really know if it will work on 8DX. Lemme know what you think about that! :) I have heard nobody talk about it so far..

Along with that, we also have the mystery of which Bowser Castle (SNES 3 or GBA 4) will be in Wave 6, since that slot was pushed back to Wave 6 by Wii Moonview Highway.

I’m okay with either track but I have one little thing I’d like to mention. A cousin or sequel to DK Mountain, DK SnowBoard Pass or in the US, DK Summit. DK Mountain and Summit look a bit to similar in the way the track plays. Both starting with a little straightaway into turn to hop in a cannon, then going up to the top of an icy mountain or volcano and traveling down said path. Both tracks have really sharp turns after the rugged terrain which then lead to a gap in the road forcing you to go around. But! This is gap can be jumped over with enough speed on DK Mountain in Wii! Almost like the fact you have to line up just good enough for the double cut on DK Summit. Then it leads to a mad dash to the finish line. The only difference at the end is DK Mountain has a bridge with no barriers and DK Summit has halfpipes with one right turn into a straightaway to the finish line. The similarities are there but if DK Mountain makes it, I’m all down for it, more power to the DKM believers and I will be happy to see more GameCube tracks and hear the music from it. Here’s to an amazing Wave 6 and the rivals of karting we make along the way.

this is a literally a 50/50 situation with no in between. It really unfortunate that this wave is easy to predict not only for the people who are following the leaks, but also the casual audience who don’t follow the leaks. you can literally predict over half the tracks without knowing the tracks which is really sad. however daisy AND moonview got in over dry dry ruins which is the only one out of the 3 to have halfpipes.

We'll just wait and see the release date trailer for wave 6 and see which courses are getting added in the remaining 7 spots.

Every wave has had a track that was brought to tour before the bcp was announced.

i want to point out that every wave except for wave 1 so far has had 2 tracks that were in wii, with daisy cruiser and wii rainbow road taking the main slots it could potentially be dino dino however nintendo is nintendo and like being unpredictable so if daisy cruiser was a bit of a red herring then DK mountain has more of a likelyhood since it would make up for wave 1 only having 1 wii track, also honestly hope that we see bowser castle 4 just because that would basically confirm a second BCP and it got that same treatment that other tracks set for MK8 have been getting with a bit of enviornmental story telling having the bomb exploding and driving in the remains of the track

DK Mountain is What I want to see

I can’t believe that this has the biggest arguments in the entire booster course pass

honestly im kinda hopping we get gba bowser 4 castle instead of snes 3 bowser castle I hope because it got such an awesome glow up

Well, every odd track you predicted has made it(Ds Mario circuit, Daisy circuit) has nade it. So i wouldn't be surprised if nintendo pulls an uno reverse card on us.

The man has spoken. It will be DKM.

I think Bridge could have definitely been planned. The Wave 5 GCN track was the second track of its cup, after all. Not a bad place to put a simpler course. ...though now that I think of it, Boo Lake, Mario Circuit DS, Riverside Park and Sunset Wilds were ALL third tracks in the supposed original plan for the BCP... Actually you may have a point.

I think DK Mountain is getting in mainly because it’s the newer track Dino Dino was in tour at launch and it was ripped straight from MK7 DK Mountain is a 2022 track and also is more popular and waves 4-6 have been focusing on mainly 2022-2023(with the exception of DK Summit and Sunset Wilds) Mario Kart Wii was the only game without a circuit track in MK8DX(MK64 has raceways so Royal Raceway counts) and Daisy Circuit was the only one in tour and was one the last tour tracks made which would mean it was likely intended to be added later on, also Wii Bias DK Mountain was in Wii so again WII BIAS!!!!

you were wrong about pirahna plant pipeline. we got rosalinas ice world. and we got dk mountain too.

Gonna be mushroom bridge now just because lol

7:57 Incredibly cursed Swift Cafe lore deep cut

As Tony Stark once said “is it too much to ask for both?”

I have a feeling that vanilla lake will make it in instead of bowser’s castle

If only the secret cup theory happens then we could get both

Acorn Cup: (November 2023) 1. Tour Madrid Drive 2. Wii Daisy Circuit 3. SNES Bowser’s Castle 3 4. Piranha Plant Pipeline Spiny Cup: (November 2023) 1. Tour Rome Avanti 2. GCN DK Mountain 3. Piranha Plant Cove 4. Wii Rainbow Road OR DS Airship Fortress Release Date: Tuesday 11/21/23 Trailer: Monday 11/6/23

I hope the trailer comes out tmrw.

Are you planning to talk about the theory some are having about SNES BC3 getting replaced by another track?

Moonview Highway did not replace a scrapped track. That spot might have just been undecided at the moment. It is already decided the GCN spot though, so there is a crazy chance both tracks make it in but again, extremely low. Sure, you might say it'd be underwhelming if Wii Rainbow Road doesn't make it in, but let's be honest. We already knew it was gonna be underwhelming when 3DS Rainbow Road came before Wave 6. 3DS Rainbow Road was the way to close the pass.

I swear if they blow us away and do Mushroom Bridge I will love the remix but like the GCN Jungle music remix idk how will they top the OG…

I'm starting to think neither of the gcn tracks were chosen and they went with GBA Bowser Castle 4 to end the acorn cup since It's the second only track with a two section lap in Mario kart tour just like Wii Rainbow Road. Also having two Bowser castles (SNES 3 and GBA 4) would be weird but nice.

If GCN DKM gets in lets pray for the gap jump. Wii MG and Wii DKS had gap jumps so it can be possible.

I had mentioned in someone else's video that I had my money on both Tour Nitros not appearing and DK Mountain. Despite not having a secret DS course as I thought, I am pretty happy with my powers of deduction. I mean who listens to posters you see in a 'Mall' anyway?

Now the question is... does Nintendo want to incorporate Noshie (the dinosaur) in MK8D? This would mean making a new asset. If I recall, DK Mountain can use already existing assets like boulders.

I really want both tracks tbh

If mushroom bridge gets added, I will eat my shorts

Imagine if Nintendo pulls a move similar to the Wave 4 DS Track and gives us GCN Luigi Circuit

Nah Albert, the last GCN nitro has GOTTA be Bowser’s Castle, I mean, WHY would they waste such an opportunity?

DKM is more chance than DDJ in Wave 6 since 1. DKM is difficult than DDJ 2. DDJ was released in the beginning of MKT, while DKM was released in 11/2022. So my prediction of Wave 6 is: Acorn Cup 1. Tour Madrid Drive (Include the food market section, acorn is a food) 2. Wii Daisy Circuit 3. GCN DK Mountain (There may be acorns in the forest area. HAHAHA!!!) 4. Tour Piranha Plant Cove (Multiple route like the cities) Spiny Cup 1. Tour Rome Avanti (Include the colosseum section, spiny items match that theme I think) 2. New Piranha Plant Pipeline 3. SNES Bowser Castle 3 (This track is fitter than DKM as there are spiny balls in the Bowser Castle tracks usually. And why I put here because Bowser Castle track is usually the second last track in most Mario Kart game) 4. Wii Rainbow Road (Mario Kart always end in this way)

If we dont get another bowsers castle or airship fortress i hope we get rosalinas ice world tbh.

Double dash was did so dirty with the bcp, chould have gotten at least 2 more tracks

If wave 6 gives me Funky Kong, Wii Rainbow Road AND DK Mountain. Instant favorite wave.

I still think Piranha Plant Pipeline could be scrapped so that they throw the curveball and include both SNES BC3 and GBA BC4

My opinion is that the prefix leak is up to change, so I don’t get why everyone badly wants snes bc3 in acorn. The order should be: Madrid drive (it’s easier and simpler than Rome avanti) daisy circuit bc in most circuits in the bcp they are in the 2nd slot of any cup, Pipeline as it’s easier than cove and ending it off is DK mountain. Then we have avanti for the reasons given, cove, snes bc3 and Wii rainbow road. It makes sense for it to be bc3 then rainbow road bc that’s how the game works with special cups. Bowser castle then rainbow road

Part of me wonders if maybe it could be neither of the jungles and instead be a single course that was made exclusive to the BCP.

Both!

My copium is saying it has double dash dk mountain and double dash rainbow road and that's why they showed us daisy circuit first

Rip rio

I’m praying that we get neither and it’s actually a Nitro

One thing in DK Mountain's favor I feel is the fact that it could be easier to implement on account of not having any new or complex gimmicks to program. The cannon and the boulders have been used in a few courses already, so it wouldn't take nearly as much time to add them as opposed to programming the dinosaur, a wholly unique setpiece that needs to move in precise ways for the two routes that snake around it

Imagine we get Mushroom City

DK Mountain I can agree is a bit more likely, the reason I thought it was more likely was because of it being in Wii and Nintendo probaly trying to win over the Wii fans, also it’s probably gonna be the only other fan favorite besides Wii rainbow road

DINO DINO JUNGLE SUPREMACY BUT TBH BOTH ARE GREAT

I wish we got an N64 track instead of Daisy Circuit. I do like almost all the Wii courses(including Daisy Circuit) but like the N64 had some really, really good course.

Having playing mk7 for years, I havent experienced DK Mountain so I would much rather have that track over DDJ again

I say DK Mountain. Nintendo knows that MKWii is a fan favourite game. So much so they added at least one track in each wave and completing the roster from that game. They also added alot of Retro tracks which were in that game aswell such as Mario circuit 3 Waluigi Stadium and Peach Gardens. DK Mountain was a track in Wii and i believe will be more nostalgic in Nintendos eyes rather than DDJ.

while i do like ddj a little more, i do agree that dkm is more likely. this is mainly for 2 reasons 1- nintendo is going hard on wii fan satisfaction 2- gameplay. generally the tracks with more polygons and elevation in tour are more likely to make it to deluxe, and you can definitely see this with how bad dkm plays in tour (just my opinion lol). ddj is definitely on the simpler side in terms of elevation, was way closer to tours release which has had a lot less bcp representation in later waves (cities and nitros excluded)

I hope the give us airship fortress instead just to really throw everybody off

I hope Pajama Sam courses get added!!~

Okay both DK Mountain and Dino Dino Jungle are really good tracks but if I have to pick one and that is DK Mountain. And also okay this is the finale for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe for Wave 6 but they added four new characters so I'm thinking that their gonna do anther column of characters and this is what I think if Nintendo is gonna do it which is what I think should be the final surprise character in the roster has to be Kirby because I don't know why Nintendo never added Kirby in Mario Kart and Kirby does have alot of games on the Switch, and he has his own racing game which is Kirby's Air Ride. So yeah they could like give Kirby a special track which is Dreamland and then give him like a Warpstar Kart for him and then make him playable cause I would imagine seeing alot of people including me playing as Kirby in Mario Kart but Nintendo needs to talk to HAL about adding Kirby into Mario Kart as the final surprise character pr maybe adding him in a new Mario Kart game i don't know if they ever think about it.

I think DK Mountain has more chances to be in Wave 6 because of Half-Pipes from Wii and Tour remakes

I'm so glad someone else finally had the brains to realise Mushroom Bridge was never planned... I have my own theory on what was actually planned so if anyone wants a read here you go: So we know from the prefix leak a GCN and a nitro were scrapped and replaced with Moonview Highway and Daisy Circuit. To find these 2 tracks we don't have to look very hard, all we have to ask is what was scrapped from MKTour? The answer isn't that simple... we only have file names of these courses, being MOB_MU and MOB_NU, one of these is the scrapped nitro and the other is the scrapped GCN, but what GCN track could it be? If we look at other tracks in MKTour and their file names, Madrid Drive was MOB_MD and Yoshi's Island was MOB_YI, from this we can conclude that most of the time the file names contain the first letter of the first word of a track name, followed by the first letter of the second word of the track name. However, nothing from Double Dash resembles this format, until we look deeper... You see, some tracks have the same names (e.g. Mario Circuit, Bowser's Castle and Rainbow Road), so they can't all be labelled the same in the files. Now looking at Mario Circuit we would expect it to be labelled MOB_MC, what else would have the same file names following this principle? GCN Mushroom City. The most logical thing which happened was they obviously couldn't name it MOB_MC, so they just went with the first 2 letters of the track name and named it MOB_MU. This makes a ton of sense with both Moonview Highway and Mushroom City both being night time city tracks. The only thing against it that I can find really is that Moonview didn't fill the slot of Mushroom City from the prefix leak, but in retrospect it wouldn't have been a shock to me if both were scrapped at the same time so they just put them in the other way round for whatever reason. If you disagree with it being Mushroom City, feel free to explain why, but I see no reason why Mushroom City wasn't the original track planned.

You all aren't ready for GBA Bowser castle 4 and SNES Bowser Castle 3 to both end up in the final wave somehow

You may think I would pick DK Mountain, or Mushroom Bridge, or Dino Dino Jungle, but no, I'm going completely random and nothing no one will suspect... DS Airship Fortress

I prefer DK Mountain than Dino Dino Jungle but we already got DK Summit so I think Dino Dino Jungle is gonna be in Wave 6 but if DK Mountain is in Wave 6 instead of Dino Dino Jungle I’ll be really happy! Also , R.I.P. Mushroom Bridge :( Release date of Wave 6 : 23rd October 2023

I'm very glad we're finally seeing the final wave of the BCP because we've been waiting for a new MK game for at least 9 years at this point. I'm gonna make a bold claim and say that it's Dino Dino Jungle. Might be because I'm biased towards that track (but believe me, I love DK Mountain too), but I don't know how to add my own thoughts without making the comment section erupt from all the emotion between fans (Heh, see what I did there?). {🌋/🦕}

I'll take either one, personally.

I feel like is most likely dk mountain I did found something on a banner leak

I think we are getting DK Mountain because Dino Dino jungle was in MK7 and DK Mountain hasn't been a thing since Wii (Dont say it was in Tour bc Tour isnt mainline)

Imagine Nintendo pulls another funny and only adds Mushroom Bridge

I don't care which one gets in. Either way, we still get to hear the music.

DK Mountain for the Ware 6

Honestly, as a massive Mario Kart Wii fan...I'd rather have it be Dino Dino Jungle. If I want to play DK Mountain I can just fire up my Wii and play it there, and with Wii's bike physics too, and I'm very familiar with the course and have played it countless times. Meanwhile I've never played Dino Dino Jungle, or any Double Dash course that wasn't in Wii or 8DX (except GCN Rainbow Road through a Mario Kart Wii custom track mod once) since I've never played Double Dash (only played Super Mario Kart, Wii, and 8DX), and so it would be an entirely new unique course for me that looks so cool. The Double Dash courses I've never gotten to play intrigue me in general because so many of them look sick, I've already played all the GC courses that are in Wii and I can still just go play them in Wii whenever I want, I want new GCN courses I never got to experience. Yeah sure my Wii can play GC games so theoretically I could just get a copy of Double Dash, but that's impossible to find for a reasonable price these days. Not to mention we already got DK Summit which was basically Wii's attempt at a sequel to DK Mountain (and a good one at that), that course is already very similar and even has a similar gap shortcut on the descent, I want something more distinct. But hey, that's just my opinion. I think DK Mountain is way more likely to be the one added though, I just...wish it was Dino Dino Jungle. Not to mention, it has the Dino of course. He's adorable, don't abandon the poor guy like that. :(
