Personally, I LOVE Mario Kart Tour. It’s very underrated and it’s changed quite a lot from what it used to be back in 2019. It’s gotten much better in terms of almost everything. I’ve been here for every single tour in the game, and have played it almost every single day since the release. Not even kidding lol! Also I wanted to give a little info on the GBA music. The GBA tracks ported from 7 are using the same music from that game. When it comes to the other GBA tracks like Peach Circuit, Boo Lake, etc, they uncompressed the original songs. The only GBA song however that DOES NOT have an uncompressed version is Lakeside Park. I have no idea why they left that one out for an uncompressed remix… If you ever need to learn more about MKT, I’m the guy for the facts lol!
Its a very mixed game. I personally love the game, but I totally understand people having issues with it's controls. However, those that shit on it because of what it used to be and that its a mobile game are just clowns.
It's a fun game, you just have to approach it in a different way to other games in the series. It's way more focused on scorechasing and stringing actions together to build combos. Honestly, works surprisingly well for Mario Kart, and helps add utility to smaller actions like collecting coins and boosting.
Yeah, the GBA Bowser's Castle tracks and Cheep Cheep Island are the only ones to not get a new remix. (Sadly. Imagine how hard Tour remixes of those would go.) GBA Bowser's Castle uses the 7 remix and Cheep Cheep Island uses the Wii remix.
as the fellow who so graciously provided you with the idea for this video and the music playlist, I unfortunately have to admit that I was, in fact, just trying to get into the video I am in fact a Tour Andy myself, and it was a lot of fun seeing you discover those racecourses, and now the music, for the first time. Glad you enjoy Piranha Plant Pipeline's music almost as much as I do. When it inevitably shows up in Mario Kart 10 I'll be waiting to obliterate you on it in online play.
Man I really love Tour Sky Garden's remix of GBA's Sky Garden theme. I still think it was really odd to make a nitro with the same name instead of a remake, but I guess the developers were doing their own thing. Also, I will say I wish they kept the Ba's in the 8 version of LA Laps, it added a lot of personality. (The 8 version is still infinitely better tho)
Fun Fact: There’s a actually a number of data files in Tour that make it clear that there were many tracks that didn’t make it in Tour: Nitro: There’s one that’s probably just a test for PPC as assets of the Unagi’s are within the files called MobNU. There’s another Nitro that’s described as an enclosure of some kind called MobMU, it’s not clear what it could’ve been, but we can always guess. Retros: There’s a number of objects to suggest a number of other tracks originally planned for Tour, tracks includes GBA Cheese Land, Wii Grumble Volcano, 3DS’s Music Park, DK Jungle and the two Wuhu Tracks. There’s data that suggested that SNES Ghost Valley 3, N64 Banshee Boardwalk and Bowser’s Castle were planned as well, but they disappeared after a while, so we don’t really know what happened to those. There was data for one other Battle Mode map, Wii Block Plaza, but this never came to pass as they gave up on BM after it launched. So yeah, that’s just some stuff that I thought was neat to share.
I’ve also heard that GCN Mushroom City was planned but got scrapped, with the assets they had available being used to put together Mushroom Bridge and Moonview Highway
4:01 Look mom it's me! All jokes aside lol, this stream was really fun to attend, and this video was really well edited as always Musty my good man. This video took me by surprise as well, didn't expect this to get it's video before super (fair honestly lmao) Edit: I do believe Pipeline has potential to hit S, with this version alone there are so many cool easter eggs, and I wish they just brought this into 8 instead of shafting it.. Like that intro is just the slowed down pipe theme, how clever is that? This might just be me talkin idk, I think it's a pretty firm S at least
Ayy, he's finally come around on the PPC theme! Monkey Island vibes all the way. Honestly I think I enjoy the track itself in Tour more too, bc the version that takes you out of the water to the island with the piranha plants starts on the island right before the big jump. Starting outside of the water and getting deeper into the ruins as the track goes on works SO much better than what we actually got in 8DX, and its a shame Switch players didn't get to experience it the same way us weirdos who played the track first in Tour did.
I don’t have anything to say about tour, so rather then pretending I do, I’m just gonna devolve into the stuff brainrotted children do on RUclips shorts Nintendo needs to hire musty to approve Mario kart 9 music
Idk how I found your channel a few months ago but I'm so glad I did. Always super funny and entertaining no matter the length of the video. Keep it up 🙏🐐
@Sir_Musty Same case. Just randomly found your channel, but watching these tier lists and ranking reactions is such amazing content to watch. It's nice knowing there's a RUclipsr who shares my opinion on Deluxe's LA remix.
LA Laps' two versions are night and day compared to each other. The tour version is so awfully produced and mixed that it honest to goodness gives me a headache, and the only thing slightly entertaining about it are the vocals. Meanwhile The BCP cover is so punchy and fun, it hits in all the right places and all the right ways and is such an upgrade that it is unironically in my top 10 MK8 songs.
My top 10 themes of 8DX 10. Super Bell Subway (Underground) 9. Ice Ice Outpost 8. Tour Singapore Speedway 7. Tour Singapore Speedway (Chinatown) 6. Wii Maple Treeway 5. 3DS Rock Rock Mountain 4. SNES Bowser Castle 3 3. Wii Moonview Highway (City) 2. Tour Madrid Drive (Stadium) 1. Tour Vancouver Velocity
Funny part is that Yoshi Desert made sense back when Yoshi's voice was a compilation of Orchestra Hits. Now that Yoshi has an actual voice, it's just a stock Orchestra Hit SFX, and only those in the SNES-GBA era will recognize that as Yoshi's original voice.
You could also rank these tracks' gameplay by being the average Nintendo fan and not actually play the game, instead resorting to just watching somebody else's footage in order to formulate your opinions.
Pipeline was so robbed (I haven't actually played the track but I'd want it in for the remix alone). It's also funny that you mention Tour Berlin's more heavy focus on techno since I'm in a position where I prefer the Tour for first half and 8dx for the second half since both parts excel in what they respectively focus on. Tour always wins in the loop department, went way too hard at that specific point.
The clearest example of a Tour song being better than in 8 Deluxe imo is SHS. Just so punchy and syncopated. But typically I prefer the BCP arrangements
LA is so bad it's good The intro from snow land still came from 8 deluxe, because it came to tour after the bcp Ds mario circuit basically just got uncompressed It seems they really leaned into the 90's advertisement in the tour rendition of squeaky clean sprint Piranha plant pipeline is based on a scrapped mkds track if you didnt already know Ok now for some hot takes: Vancouver is C at best in tour Athens is still S in tour Berlin is A tier but is growing on me so expect the 8 deluxe version to fall to F tier by tomorrow Lakeside park is S tier Ninja hideaway is still A tier but it was nerfed into 2124 Pipeline is the greatest track to ever be conceived into mario kart tour
How the heck am I this early? Good to see you man! You are so funny, and while I don't agree with every take you have, I always respect and understand them. Great job man! Have a great day!
Imo Berlin Byways’s more synthetic sections do sound better in Tour, but 8’s live orchestra does SOOO much for it. It makes it feel like the techno beat is sampling some classical piece or something, rather than being apart of the composition, and that heavily boost’s the songs vibe. It’s the clash of synthetic beeps and boops and live instruments that makes the song work, and it doesn’t land quite as well when you can hear that the symphony is a vst, despite the beat itself going a decent bit harder.
As a Tour player myself, I admire your takes on the OST. Although, I would put London Loop music at the bottom of F Tier. Just saying. At least the 8 Deluxe version of LL sounded better. Even though the track itself is my least favorite of all the city tracks alongside Tokyo and Paris.
I have to know why Nintendo pick Daisy Circuit over Piranha Plant Pipeline. I Blame the Wii's Soyboy. Since Daisy Circuit's Soyboy remind them of their favorite Mario Kart Game while Piranha Plant Pipeline is not from wii. So nintendo want to make them to get Mario Kart 8DX BCP. So they why they pick Daisy Circuit. That is My conclusion to my Theory.
I think London sounds better because it sounds worse. It's clear that what they were trying to do is reference 70s British punk, and punk is kinda known for being very unpolished and not very good from a technical view. That's just my opinion tho.
I..... kind of disagree on 8DX Vancouver being better than the original. I do think they're incredibly close to each other, but IMO the original Tour version's more 'chill' vibes adds slightly more to the track's atmosphere, and overall resonates with me more compared to 8DX's punchier-ness. (I also like the second verse(?)'s synth slightly more than the 8DX version's ewi). I don't think LA is that great in either version. The original isn't very pleasant to hear but I commend it for being...unique. The 8DX version is easier on the ears, but it sounds oddly generic now. Maybe I would have liked it more if they kept some of the Tour version's samples like the vocals. I dunno. You may want Pipeline for the song now, but I wonder what would you think of its gameplay lol. I played it during its debut tour and it's alright, but it's pretty much a lesser version of Piranha Plant Slide. (Which, to be fair, would still be better than both DC and Ice World LMAO)
Musty bouta fight some haters. A lot of RUclipsrs have said that the Deluxe remix of LA Laps is objectively worse, meanwhile Musty here be giving unbiased judgment toward the Tour soundtrack (he has no nostalgia to lean toward, he's never played the game) saying that the Deluxe remix slaps harder.
The fact that they just spam yoshi sfx at the end of yoshi desert just reminds me of some ytp shitpost and i crack up every time i hear it 💀💀💀💀
"Somehow it sounds even more French!" I didn't even think that was possible, but here we are.

Weird that they never did Lakeside, my personal favourite of the lot, a shame really
I've heard its really solid now, i should really give it a try

@@mailpaper7754Fr like they act like tour was made by Jack Doherty or smth

After listening to a mashup of the two, I realized my main issue with Tour’s version is it’s lacking in percussion
as the fellow who so graciously provided you with the idea for this video and the music playlist, I unfortunately have to admit that I was, in fact, just trying to get into the video
I am in fact a Tour Andy myself, and it was a lot of fun seeing you discover those racecourses, and now the music, for the first time.

I had no idea Berlin byways fucked that hard
So is it good?
Even me that plays Tour somewhat consistently do not care that you don't play it lol
mogi time?
I am just saying
berlin byways as a mashup is even more goated af
I’ve been addicted to Croco64’s mashup of the two recently

Also rip Pipeline you will be missed :(

Nintendo needs to hire musty to approve Mario kart 9 music
As a music producer, la laps sounds like a beginner had the sheet music for something, then transcribed in a daw, with no effects
Idk how I found your channel a few months ago but I'm so glad I did. Always super funny and entertaining no matter the length of the video. Keep it up 🙏🐐

36:30 yo thats me
29:20 8dx version came out before tour version, so tour piggy backed off 8dx for the intro jingle.
I absolutely love New York Minute. Especially the Mario Kart 8 rendition.

The LA Laps ba's gets me every time 😂😂💀
Always gives me a laugh. Just need to remember if I am ever having a bad day, I could just listen to LA Laps.
LA is some mischievous type beat
Can i get a "BA BA BA BA"

You're so real for this, Dean
25:23 Ironically that Mii looks like the guy from the Hangover movies.
Berlin has no right to hit THAT HARD
holy FUCK i have SLEPT on og Berlin
No bc I love LA laps in tour, the bas are fine, but it’s just so retro and I love it for a mobile Mario kart
Pipeline was so robbed (I haven't actually played the track but I'd want it in for the remix alone).
It's also funny that you mention Tour Berlin's more heavy focus on techno since I'm in a position where I prefer the Tour for first half and 8dx for the second half since both parts excel in what they respectively focus on.

SLOWING DOWN ARE YA
The clearest example of a Tour song being better than in 8 Deluxe imo is SHS. Just so punchy and syncopated. But typically I prefer the BCP arrangements
Hearing LA Laps in Tour made me realize how much of a glow up the song got in 8DX because damn the instrument choices here are hilariously bad
The entire time I was just staring at toad holding that green shell
LA is so bad it's good
The intro from snow land still came from 8 deluxe, because it came to tour after the bcp
Ds mario circuit basically just got uncompressed
It seems they really leaned into the 90's advertisement in the tour rendition of squeaky clean sprint
Piranha plant pipeline is based on a scrapped mkds track if you didnt already know
Ok now for some hot takes:
Vancouver is C at best in tour
Athens is still S in tour
Berlin is A tier but is growing on me so expect the 8 deluxe version to fall to F tier by tomorrow
Lakeside park is S tier
Ninja hideaway is still A tier but it was nerfed into 2124
Pipeline is the greatest track to ever be conceived into mario kart tour
How the heck am I this early? Good to see you man! You are so funny, and while I don't agree with every take you have, I always respect and understand them. Great job man! Have a great day!
You're far too kind, thank you!
@@Sir_Musty You're welcome dude! :)
We love Mario Kart...... Tour..?
Yes. Yes we do bois.
45:43 I feel this bro Daisy Circuit was NOT needed
Sky high sundae is the best one
Ngl, I'm trying to see the difference beetwen the 8dlx rendition and the Tour rendition of PPC, they pretty much sound the same to me 😭
The bass is so much more prominent in the Tour version, it's great
You must have severe hearing problems.

You're not wrong, the MK8 version does was MK8 does best, but the Tour version still get me all these months later
@@Sir_Musty imma be real literal minutes after i wrote this comment I went and listened to both versions and realized its a way closer matchup

There was a stream?
