Since my last update was more to make a bittersweet point, given the possibility that this upcoming City Course may be out last & final one in Mario Kart Tour and (along with Rome Avanti) in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe via the Booster Course Pass...
And since we were not much further informed about this upcoming City Course until now...
I might as well do this update on a more positive and informative note.
We finally get our first glimpse into the latest (and like I said, possibly last & final) Mario Kart Tour City Course...
Madrid Drive
As you can tell by its name & setting, this course will take place during the daytime in Madrid, Spain; with the music for course very reminiscent to the Flamenco Music used for Flamenco Dancing & even for the events where Matedors perform in the Spanish Bull Fights.
Below are the links showcasing the track.
This latest city course will debut in Mario Kart Tour as part of the 2023 Summer Tour, arriving next Tuesday (August 22nd) or Wednesday (August 23rd) depending on your Time Zone.
As was the case with fellow 2023 Mario Kart Tour City Courses: Athens Dash & Rome Avanti, as well as the unique 2023 non-city Nitro Track: Pirahana Cove, Madrid Drive will likely have 2 variants in the course's debut Tour first, with possibly a 3rd variant in a later Tour.
And just like the aforementioned tracks, along with Pirahana Plant Pipeline, Madrid Drive is pretty much guaranteed to make it into Mario Kart 8 Deluxe via Wave 6 of the Booster Course Pass.
With Athens Dash having been added in Wave 5 of the Pass...
...it's gonna be Rome Pirahna Plant Cove, Rome Avanti, Piranha Plant Pipeline, and Madrid Drive being guaranteed for Wave 6 of the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Booster Course Pass.
And remember, Wave 6 is currently the last & final wave of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Booster Course Pass.
But what cups will the aforementioned 4 tracks, including Madrid Drive, take place in? Will they placed in either the Acron Cup or the Spiny Cup? And on a scale from 1 to 4, what will be their cup placements in each of the 2 cups for Wave 6?
Well, it's only a matter of time until we find out.
And in the end, I hope the 1up-Girl: Pauline ends up being in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe as one of the 2 remaining racers via Wave 6 of the Booster Course Pass, coming along with another racer, the 4 aforementioned basically guaranteed tracks, and 4 more tracks (particulary Retros) we've yet to see; and I do hope we get some additional content for Wave 6 to end the Booster Course Pass with a bang, like additional vehicles & power-ups.
Still, although this latest is an uplifting and positive one, it still coincides with my last update, which I feel has a bit more importance in terms of explaining some bittersweet possibilities; so if you wish to visit my bittersweet prior update & why I feel that way, feel free to visit it here: https://www.change.org/p/more-dlc-racers-and-vehicles-for-mario-kart-8-deluxe/u/31830350
Anyway, that's all I have for you today. You Mario Karters keep your wits about you as you all head down to Madrid & the Summer 2023 Tour courses; and do not hesitate munch & snack on some delicioso (spanish for "delicious") churros, if any of you wish.
Well, as they would say in Spain & other Spanish-speaking countries...
"Bueno El Lucko!" to you Mario Karters. ^v^
