we arent dumb, we were just playing along with Nudge's joke, since this is obviously a joke
(tho, him deleting his account temporarily fooled me a bit)

Guys look @TheNudgyHampter deleted his account

Buuut that counts as sayin' sumthin' right?

i think Daisanko, me, Limey and Kirby64 should play because i don't trust Parachute Paper and Wogser to play fairly

Since I locked my previous fanfic for an undeterminate time, I decided to make another one! This time, MKPCians compete against each other Mario Party-style in unique boards with minigames from ALL Mario Party games (yes, even the obscure ones...)

To make things fair, I am the main host (the one who does nothing except stating the obvious and explaining the minigames' rules) but there are also other hosts (the star giver, the shopkeeper, the "pseudo-Bowser", etc...) and the 4 people who compete to be the Superstar!

Here are the boards:
Skeleton Key Park
Cuteness Desert
Glazed Glacier
Shooting-star City
SuperMega7's Mirage Palace

Number of minigames per type:
22 4-player minigames (free for all)
3 co-op minigames (all the players must co-operate to win)
10 1vs3 minigames
8 2vs2 minigames
8 battle minigames (battle space)
16 duel minigames (same space in the last 5 turns/duel glove)
7 item minigames(item space)
8 coin minigames (1 4-player, 4 1vs3 and 3 2vs2)
4 boss minigames (all the players compete to deal the most damage)
15 special minigames (2 records, 7 puzzles, 3 1-player boss, 1 DK, 1 imitation, 1 coin)

hop before the last booom to reduce how much you spin

I felt like it.

Actually, wait a minute. I have an idea.

I'm here to pitch the idea that the best Ghost Track in Mario Kart...

is Wario Shipyard.

Here's why:

1: Uniqueness. All the other Ghost tracks overlap with each other. Ghost Valley, Boo Lake/Broken Pier & Banshee Boardwalk are all too similar to stand out (no, changing the void to water does not make Banshee Boardwalk different) Luigi's Mansion & Twisted Mansion also have some overlap, except 1 is barely an actual Mansion. Wario's Shipyard is literally a haunted castle & pirate ship graveyard, which is metal af.

2: Layout. I don't have to say anything about the first 3 games, there's nothing doing. Luigi's Mansion is also quite simple. Twisted Mansion gets a bonus point over it here. But Wario's Shipyard is a masterpiece of level design.

Underwater sections have always been heavily underused in Mario Kart, but when they're done well, they're good. Piranha Plant Cove is far and away the best example, but Wario Shipyard is definitely second place. Actually moving in and out of the water, instead of just going down a bit and popping back up later(usually with a ramp) and calling it a day. Extended water segments, and not just a single corner/oval. That one part where you exit the water onto the shipdeck & re-enter the water, making the water feel like an actual part of the track, and not some disconnected segments like is usually the case.

3: The music. Ghost themes in actual Mario games are quite good(except Big Boo's Haunt). Take Waltz of the Boos, for example.



Or for a more unique approach, Deep Dark Galaxy.



And lastly, for a more haunted house style piece, Haunted Halls from 3D World.



All wonderfully made.

As for Mario Kart...

Well, first off, three of them are remixes of Mario World's Ghost House(guess which three...) and that's a good song, but not original(And only one of these remixes is good to listen to imo), which isn't really a good look. Luigi's Mansion theme is also quite good, but it's pretty dated sounding (especially since MK7 didn't remix any of it's DS & Wii retro track music, and neither did Tour).

Twisted Mansion's theme is a masterpiece, almost makes me wish the track was good enough to deserve the song. (Another point over Luigi...hey guys, I think Twisted Mansion is better-)

Wario Shipyard? Well, it's not going for the generic "Spoopy place" music. It goes for this crazy electric guitar + synth sound, which doesn't have much to do with the track. But as far as the music goes, it goes stupid.(and includes a Wario Land reference! too)



Of course, most of the people here are biased to DS(& Wii, but there aren't any ghost tracks there), and this isn't likely to sway anybody. But I do think Wario easily has the best Ghost track in the series. And the(second bc Vancouver) best Snow track too, but y'all aren't ready for that conversation yet

who cares abt this topic.

@ImJustLimey why you get 1st place in online places?
