Well pfft >_> stealing threads is a thing now

LOL. I look like an idiot playing 200cc. I know that I'll eventually get the hang of it, but Jesus Christ. I knew how I wanted every turn on every track to look like in 150cc and here I am sucking a fat one in 200cc. A few things. One: I am really enjoying it. But it's hard as shit and I'm struggling...which is good. Two: items don't seem to be as big of a factor. Three: I haven't played the new courses, because I wanted to try 200cc on the old courses before I got to the new ones.

1. Wild Woods
2. Big Blue
3. Animal Crossing
4. Ribbon Road
5. Super Bell Subway
6. Baby Park
7. Neo Bowser City
8. Cheese Land

Most tracks are absolutely amazing (everything up to 5). Especially Wild Woods and Big Blue. The level of detail in these tracks is really cool.

Baby Park is simple but a lot of chaotic fun and I think the game needs to have such a track, it's a good addition.

Neo Bowser City is a solid track, lots of fun corners, but aesthetically lacks something to make it really stand out.

Cheese land is little bland. I get it, cheese is yellow, but when compared to the absolutely brilliant remake of Ribbon Road it falls a bit short. Not a bad track though, just not as good as the others.

Lmao, then what's you're secret, because I'm usually ace at 150cc, but my turns are just not coming out as tight as they do in 150cc. I've only played each track once, and only the new tracks, so I've barely played, but the best tweak I've made is to hug the outside of the lane instead of the inside, as the turns are much wider now.

Thought Big Blue was gonna dominate the poll one sidedly, so it's great to see Wild Woods with a comparable number of votes! Also I updated my rankings, putting Neo Bowser City at 4th and dropping Animal Crossing and Baby Park to 7th and 8th respectively.

Whatdya mean now, it's always been a thing! But seriously I did look to see if a similar thread was made already and it didn't seem like there was one, but obviously I was wrong so my bads! Your's wasn't posted in Nintendo discussion so that's probably why I didn't find it.

I don't have 200cc... should I complete some stuff before that is available?

I believe you have to complete 150cc (maybe Mirror aswell) and then it's unlocked.

I truly recommend braking. Even a slight tap will help you stay on the inside lane without losing your drift boost. Also, believe it or not, when it comes to offline cups only, going through shortcuts on the grass and such isn't that bad an idea without a boost. You can just hop through most shortcuts without losing too much speed, on the new tracks at least. Within two races I was having no problems adapting, and within a cup I was able to place top three with any weight class. (And I only specify "top three" because there are more third lap shenanigans that mess with me and will drop me from first every now and then.)

oh ok thanks

Yeah, I tried again with braking to much better results, though I did change my weight class to a lightweight and used karts with much better handling, as I usually use bikes. I'll try again with my boy, Roy.
