The icons for the courses can be differentEdit

As shown in the Lemmy Cup, the course icon can be different if the featured character of the cup already has tier 2 preference for the track. In this case, GBA Bowser Castle 1 has Lemmy in the course icon instead of Bowser. Is it possible to fetch these icons and add them where applicable?—Mister Wu (talk) 17:26, October 23, 2019 (EDT)

Well, the icons were uploaded really quickly, thanks SwampyGator (talk)!--Mister Wu (talk) 22:28, October 23, 2019 (EDT)

Gold Pass giftsEdit

Should we note Gold Pass driver/kart/glider gifts by tour? It’s probably as important as spotlights as some stuff was exclusive to gold subscribers.

With the number of tours increasing over time, I fear we won't be able to get past what we're listing now. The only reason it still makes sense to show the pipe spotlights is because they are outright featured in the tour's introductory image. Within the individual tour pages we should already be listing the Gold Pass gifts.--Mister Wu (talk) 04:12, January 26, 2021 (EST)
Yes I think you're right.

I don't really understand how to add pictures, if anyone does could they please note the following about the current tour (Sydney tour) RANKED CUPS: Week 1: Yoshi Cup Week 2: Baby Mario Cup BananaBarrelsMK (talk) 17:48, September 8, 2021 (EDT)

Splitting this page to reduce bloatingEdit

This page is pretty large, and will only become larger. I would recommend splitting it based off years, as in "List of Tours in Mario Kart Tour (2019)", "List of Tours in Mario Kart Tour (2020)", etc. Doomhiker (talk)  11:43, September 21, 2021 (EDT)

All tour's trailer backgrounds (excluding New York Tour)Edit

Can Mariojc please add trailer backgrounds because I cannot know how to do it for me (look at Nintendo Mobile or Zephiel810 to see all trailers of Mario Kart Tour)? Also please color code each of them like the trailers given?Pierce Ng (talk) 04:41, January 8, 2022 (EST)

Tour trailer splash screensEdit

I noticed that the tour template is slightly redesigned to add the YouTube link to the trailer, its trailer music, and the splash colours. I would also want to add additional decoration features that appear in the splash screen, which some later tours trailers have.

  • Summer Festival Tour: fireworks
  • 1st Anniversary Tour: neon city skylines
  • Halloween Tour 2020 and 2021: Jack-o'-lanterns
  • Winter Tour 2020: falling snow
  • Rosalina Tour: stars
  • New Year's 2021 Tour: golden confetti
  • Cat Tour: cat paw prints
  • Snow Tour and Penguin Tour: falling snowflakes
  • Ninja Tour: ninja stars
  • Wedding Tour: falling petals
  • Summer Tour: rising bubbles
  • Autumn Tour: falling leaves
  • Holiday Tour 2021: large stars and falling snow
  • New Year's 2022 Tour: red and white confetti

New Year's Tour (2020) placement within listsEdit

Before starting an edit war with PhGuy12 for the placement of these tours into the subjective lists I'll like to offer the following arguments as to why it should be part of the 2019 list:

  • As per other instances of content added to games post launch (DLC) the official dates given by Nintendo is the official date it becomes available which was and still is in Pacific Time, in this case December 31st of 2019.
  • Even if the mayority of the world had to wait until January 1st of 2020 there was a minor region in which the tour existed in 2019 for one or two hours, therefore it should be concidered as launched and started in 2019.
  • Every other instance of New Year's Tour start on the year before and spills into the next one, even if most of it occurs in the new year in question.

If needed I'll like to open a vote process for the topic. MariusM (talk) 23:42, June 7, 2023 (EDT)

Nintendo of America uses the Pacific Time most likely because Mario Kart Tour has a daily timer, which resets at 6:00 AM UTC. Also, the other instances of New Year's Tour started in December for all regions, so they do not serve as comparison.
And speaking of DLC, the date announced for the release of the Wave 4 of the Booster Course Pass was March 9. When it was made available, it was the day before in some regions.

List of 2024 tours in Mario Kart TourEdit

A page for the 2024 tours in Mario Kart Tour needs to be made.CMM2002 (talk) 07:22, January 29, 2024 (EST)

I personally don't think we need one. All tours going forward are repeats and at that point, an article for the 2024 tours would just be copy pasting the tables from the 2023 tours. If anything, we probably don't need the tables from the Battle Tour rerun.   Tails777 Talk to me! 
I suggest that the durations of the repeated tours are updated with the differing dates from different years, then. For example, on the 2022 Tours page, the Battle Tour's duration is listed as October 4 2022 - October 18 2022, and October 3 2023 - October 17 2023.CMM2002 (talk) 16:14, January 29, 2024 (EST)
That sounds reasonable to me.   Tails777 Talk to me! 

Stop listing tour reruns separatelyEdit

  This talk page proposal has already been settled. Please do not edit any of the sections in the proposal. If you wish to discuss the article, do so in a new header below the proposal.

stop listing 8-0
Every tour since the 2023 Anniversary Tour has been an identical rerun of a previous tour, not even having separate articles on the wiki, but for some reason they're still being listed separately on the 2023 tours list, and there's a red link to a 2024 tours list that, if created, would entirely be repeated information from the 2023 list. This repetition is weird and unnecessary (and also absent from the MKT navbox's list of tours) so I propose we get rid of the separate listings for the reruns and instead incorporate the small amount of unique information they have, that being the dates and the trailers, into the listings for the original tour, something like this:

  Duration:
October 4, 2022, 11:00 p.m. (PT) – October 18, 2022, 10:59 p.m. (PT)
Rerun duration: October 3, 2023, 11:00 p.m. (PT) – October 17, 2023, 10:59 p.m. (PT)
Trailer
Trailer
Music: SNES Donut Plains
Theme color/design: Yellow/green/cyan/magenta
Yellow/green/pink/purple (rerun)
Week Ranked cup Spotlights
1   Driver Glider
   
Mario (Chef) Chocolate Pretzel
2   Driver Glider
   
Luigi (Chef) Para-Panini





















Note the two dates and two trailer links (preferably the links could be worded differently as "Trailer (2022) / Trailer (2023)" or "Trailer (rerun)" or something like that but that would require changes to the template).

Also, if this proposal passes, the redundant second listings in the infoboxes for these tours in the "<< List of 20XX tours >>" bit at the bottom will be removed as well, except for the Battle Tour since it's the only one with a different preceding tour in the rerun.

SupportEdit

  1. Hewer (talk) Per proposal.
  2. CMM2002 (talk)
  3. Windy (talk) Per all.
  4. Super Mario RPG (talk) Sounds reasonable.
  5. Tails777 (talk) Per proposal and the small discussion CMM2002 and I had above. There's no need to rerun this info.
  6. YoYo (talk) I tried to solve this by redirecting the List of 2024 Tours page to the List of 2023 Tours but the mod team called it unnecessary, which is absolutely not true because otherwise we'd have two identical pages. Alas its now stuck as a red link, which is apparently a better solution. I support a solution to it. One issue is that the Mario Tour (2023) is about to have a second picture, so we'd have to decide what image to use, or find a way to use both.
  7. LadySophie17 (talk)Yes please.
  8. ThePowerPlayer (talk) Per all.

OpposeEdit

CommentsEdit

@YoYo The problem with your redirect solution as I said here was that we don't even know what the rest of the year will be like. They may discontinue it mid-year or even rerun tours not from 2023, so you don't know for sure if it will be identical.   Mario JC 05:29, February 12, 2024 (EST)
