    I have only played one grand prix (and that too locally), so I can’t say if World or 8 is better, but DK Spaceport is probably one of the most interesting track I have played.

    I have only played it once though, so am not sure if it was the nostalgia hit or if the track is actually good but its still pretty unique.

      I agree this one is great. But there’s another problem with World : it’s one of the 3 tracks or so that are actually new. Almost everything else is an old track they remastered a bit. It’s not badly done, but it feels stale.

      Base game 8 already had a lot of fully new, very good tracks. And 8’s DLC had some of the best ever, including a few cool crossover circuits.

      Even World’s music feels like they went exclusively for nostalgia. There is a lot of it, but every piece of music except this episode’s main theme is a remix of a previous Mario Kart or Mario game.
