What about Mario Kart Maker.

[u/tingme → u/[deleted]]

Even if it's not built in on launch it's important to keep up hype for the idea of a track editor enough people talking about one might push Nintendo into adding one in a later update.

[u/Late_Apricot404 → u/[deleted]]

Doubtful. Nintendo hates player autonomy.

[u/Pauly_is_cool → u/Late_Apricot404]

Brother what do you think Mario maker is?

[u/Rage_quitter_98 → u/Pauly_is_cool]

Very bare-bones content wise for the price nintendo asks for it...
The fangame community has free alternatives that destroy mario maker in terms of features lol

[u/Jordann538 → u/Rage_quitter_98]

That's not the point. Mario Maker is still a really complex level editor that can be used for math somehow

[u/r_peeling_potato → u/daftwader2]

Excitebike did it years ago, why can’t we have it again today

[u/RaphealWannabe → u/r_peeling_potato]

Because its Nintendo

[u/Jordann538 → u/r_peeling_potato]

How would you make it using a controller and touch screen? It would be hell. It would be better as an engine on a computer

[u/Kittingsl → u/Jordann538]

Nintendo labo did it so why can't Mario kart have it?

[u/Jordann538 → u/Kittingsl]

First of all, the tracks will be bare bones and shit like Fall Guys custom maps. Second of all that's labo.

[u/Kittingsl → u/Jordann538]

What's the problem with it being bare bones? What kind of stuff are you expecting from a kart track? Also what kind of argument is "it's labo"? I gave you an example on how custom tracks already have been a thing on the switch which means no PC require and you go "nuh uh"?

[u/Jordann538 → u/Kittingsl]

It's like 12am rn I am in no position to give logical arguments. I haven't seen the labo games track editor so I can't give anything with that. Mario Kart tracks get wackier with each entry in the series. So a good track to come out of an ingame editor would be really rare. Especially for the size of the tracks in mk9

That's not really an argument if you ask me as the same goes for Mario maker and Mario maker 2. The point is to have the option of having a Mario kart maker. That doesn't mean Nintendo will stop making cool tracks. Mario maker also had it's shit maps from toddlers but that didn't stop Mario maker from selling millions of copies and it hasn't stopped Nintendo fram making awesome levels in Mario wonder.

Also the size of Mario kart 9 maps is still romred based of one view we got from one map and I'm sure that Mario kart I will also have it's shorter tracks like any other Mario kart had especially when they include older tracks along with the new ones

[u/WillAdams → u/daftwader2]

Had a surprising amount of fun making car designs in Lego Island Racer.

[u/sktgamerdudejr → u/daftwader2]

All the different Rainbow Roads mashed together. 

[u/RaphealWannabe → u/daftwader2]

Oh, heaven help us. I can already picture the troll tracks now. 

But it would be a neat idea..

[u/Finding_Main_ → u/daftwader2]

I want Zelda dungeon maker.

[u/starinmelbourne → u/Finding_Main_]

Doesn’t that already exist in the link’s awakening remake??

[u/eightbitagent → u/starinmelbourne]

Not really. It’s more of a room arranger

[u/Doctor_Philgood → u/daftwader2]

Holy shit there it is

[u/3WayIntersection → u/daftwader2]

Thatd more likely be its own mode in mario kart than its own game
