| That makes me think they might be going all out on the final two waves. |

| Well I hope so - mind you at least I won't necessarily know how inaccurate Bangkok is. Looking at the list of Mario Kart Tour tracks, it looks like there are 2 more cities that we haven't had yet (so Wave 5 it is) and one more unique Tour track (so Wave 5 it is). Maybe the last wave will be mega-new stuff? It'd be a nice surprise - and don't get me wrong, I'm loving that essentially Mario Kart has doubled in size; nothing's terrible. |

| I did see it mentioned the other day that they might do a Smash Bros and decide to add more.   Could be nothing but kinda makes sense. |

I can believe this. I can also believe that it'll be a wave of seven city tracks and a Rainbow Road. The Nintendo that's both made 8 and brought over the Tour tracks could do anything at this point really. - Treesmurf wrote:

Could be nothing but kinda makes sense. My thinking: the current plan is six waves only, but if the Switch 2 is delayed until later into 2024/25 they might keep pumping out tracks to keep the punters happy. |

Ah, to be honest I think that's probably just a slightly unclear sentence on Nintendo's part - I think the current wave of waves is all that we'll wave for a bit. Also apologies from the old man who didn't pick the same course everyone else did, and then ran out of time while they were texting an apology so it happened again |

| Also - I just noticed from my own screenshots that the 8 cups originally included in Mario Kart 8 have bespoke trophy designs, but everything from the Wii U DLC onwards is just a logo plastered on an identical goblet. About as minor a complaint as you can get, but still . . . |

| They were a Club Nintendo reward at one point as well, you could get literal trophies in the same styles for your home, guess it goes back to the age old problem, when you're on top you rest on your laurels a bit and that's what they've done with Mario Kart. |

I still have the badges for each of the cups through Club Nintendo I believe. I do miss the quality of the old rewards system, always wanted the LUIGIS MANSION 2 statue if anyone remembers that! |

| Yeah that was great, it was one of those ones they annoyingly added just after I'd used a few points, I did manage to get the one with all the main Mario cast on it though. |
