Forums - Nintendo - Mario Kart 8's N64 Rainbow Road is a slap in the face for fans of the original! <(X_O)>

Rainbow Road from MK64 was only fun in multiplayer cuz everyone would try to get the cheap jump to win. That's the only reason why. Otherwise, no one cared about it so I hope the one for MK8 is better.

This thread makes me feel confused and slightly elated. Thanks?



Suposedly the retro rainbow track is 10x better than the MK8 one.
That's what you get when you put two rainbows together... one of them shines less.

Why beat around the bush? We all know this thread is aimed at Pavolink! As you saw from his response, there's no point in even bothering!

Looks like somebody reported my thread and the mod's response was to add two more Kirbys to my thread title.

But you can be, even banned for it!

Because only 1 lap is always a great idea in MK.

Not sure if this is sarcasm, but it's one big lap divided into 3 sections.



Heh, I liked Rainbow Road on N64 and probably will still like it better than the Mario Kart 8 version because of the 1 lap thing which kind of ruins it, but who knows, maybe I'll get swayed. I liked how it was the perfect 'encore' to the whole game, a long, calm track with epic music as a nice salut to end the game.

Anyway, that list in the thread you posted is bad anyway. Waluigi Pinball? Really?



I just saw video of Mario Kart 8 Rainbow Road Track.

Mario Kart 8 rainbow track is much much much better then Nintendo 64 track.

Nintendo 64 Rainbow Track was one of the weakest tracks in Mario kart 64.

It was very boring and very long.

Mario Kart 8 rainbow track corrected all those mistakes.

The track is at much more reasonable length

And it's looks much more fun and interesting

They added many thing that makes this track much better then the original.

Nope. First off the original was good, long enough for going from last to first or from first to last.
Secondly, the new one is terrible. Aside from the look, the design is boring just filled with gimmicks and even worse, short.

Finally Toad Turnspike is one of the best tracks ever in Mario Kart history. Maybe my friends and parents were not enough skilled to enjoy crashing with the cars, especially in extra mode.


Compared to the original, the design of MK8's version is  godly.
