Videos of the second cup of new courses (flower cup) and second cup of retro courses (banana cup).

Holy freaking balls, I'm loving the looks of the Flower Cup.  Wuhu Loop looks like it follows the "Island Lap" from Wii Fit.  I'VE JOGGED A MARIO KART COURSE.  So cool.  That'll be a fun course.  Music Circuit looks ****ing magical... like Rainbow Road amounts of fun and wonder there (funder?).  I'm SO psyched to finally drive karts through Peach's Castle in Mario Circuit.  It'd be cooler if it was a little more like the interior from Super Mario 64, but I'll take it.  I like that Rock Rock Mountain looks like it might take place in the same region as Wario Goldmine.  That consistency between locations in different Mario Kart games is cool to me.  Also at the very end there, notice that Mario kind of makes his glider-kart dive then pop back up... looks like it works a similarly to the Super Mario World's cape or Super Mario 64's wing cap... very interesting to see how deep the glider mechanics are.

The Banana Cup is looking good too.  The biggest surprise, in a good way, is the fairly drastic remodel of Koppa Troopa Beach.  A lot of the pointless ramps are removed, boost panels are added to them, and the karts' ability to dive looks fully utilized.  On the flipside, it looks like they removed some palm trees, and added boost panels to the shortcut ramp... hopefully that's not the case--seems like that'd be a pretty huge gamebreaker if so.

Well it also looks like they drastically shortened the shortcut. If you look at the video, they moved the waterfall where you pop out. And I find it interesting that they remodeled Koopa Troopa Beach so much, seeing as they've never done anything close to that before. It still looks good, an improvement even (though I'll have to see for myself when it comes out).

Also, Mario Circuit 2 makes sense for them to put in, seeing as it's just about the only SNES course where gliders could be used.

I could see gliders working in Snes Ghost Valley 3 also, with some slight remodeling.

I don't mind the changes to N64 Koopa Troopa Beach, but shouldn't there be an item box on top of the big rock near the waterfall instead of a coin..? (You know, for nostalgia's sake.. XD
)

I was just wondering what the retro courses are. Is there N64 Mario Circuit? I would love to drive up to Peach's castle in 3D.

The Flower Cup version of Mario Circuit doesn't just let you drive up to the castle, it lets you drive THROUGH it!  Something I've been dreaming of since MK64 came back out all those years ago...

I will now do everything in my power to get a 3DS.

Also I think you're thinking of N64 Royal Raceway. N64 Mario Circuit was already in Mario Kart Wii.

I'm loving the remixed Toad's Turnpike music on the third course of the Star Cup.  And hmm, another Wuhu Island course.

That first course of Star Cup does look amazing! I really liked the whole underground theme. I can't wait to get this game, but I'll probably be picking up Super Mario 3D Land first.
The Mario series is the best! It has every genre in video games but RTS'! It also has a plumber who does different roles, a princess, and a lot of odd creatures who don't seem to poop!

Apparently, this came out today, too.  The new courses look better than MKWii's, but the retros probably could've been chosen better (I maintain that Pipe Plaza should be in every future Mario Kart game).

Yes it is. I don't hate Big Donut, but Double Decker would have been my next choice. Skyscraper was ok, but it was in MKW.
