@@isaacrodriguez4773 The Art team forgot that those airships were based on the SMB3 airships and based them on the NSMBWII Airships. You can tell from just the tileset they used

It's Just the Graphics that are like MK8 but the design itself Isn't MK8 don't copy and paste layout design They make new ones while remaining most of the minimap the same
Actually, there is a fortress in the DS version. Just go to 0:55 and look ahead. Again, in the 3DS version it is also there with an extra wall added to the tower which you drive in.
I really wanted this course in MK8D, I don't understand why this course was not picked as an obvious choice while they decided that 8 wii courses were necessary.
DS was my first Mario Kart and I distinctly remember this being my favorite track as a child because of the cannon, I thought it was super unique and had never seen it before on a track. Now we might get it in Wave 4 which is just around the corner (a month or two) alongside Singapore Speedway which I consider to be one of the best city tracks, both in HD in MK8, the times are good and hype folks.
I honestly prefer Tour’s version over the rest. I love tracks that take place when the sun is setting and now you can actually see the fortress in the background.
nah the lava looks so shit and out of place. The original is meant to take place high in the sky beside a tall fortress but in this it just looks weird
@@el_polloloco6247 I mean DS it was way above in the sky, 3DS still cloudy, but you can see the lava's glow, and Tour the lava is now directly below the airships and fully visible Its as if the towering fortress is sinking deeper and deeper each game
It makes me sad seeing all the amazing courses and characters in MKTour even though it's a terrible mobile game. I'd pay money to experience all the content in MK8DX
lol man just because everything is so expensive doesn’t mean it’s not fun. I’ve played for a month now and had fun playing tracks and unlocking things without paying money
i dont like how the newer ones go for a more golden look, i miss the original dark and purple look that made the track feel cold. I realize the reality is that if this track came back, they'd just port it from Tour, but I'd still like to see this track return to its roots if they did use it in the DLC
Airship fortress was done dirty in tour. It looks more like something from paper Mario and the evil feel it had is gone. It's more like a log cabin mixed with an evening drive. plus the sped-up final lap music sounds like shit.
Truly, the only problem with the tour version is that they put a shy guy bar inside the airship, they should at least use koopas, I don't remember shy guys being in SMB3.
The only thing I don’t like in the remakes is the glider (I mean don’t get me wrong overall those are great for the games but it’s just for this track it kinda ruins the feeling of adrenaline when you’re being shot out of the cannon.)
I can’t wait for it to be remade again, it went from meh to the same track but with better graphics to they turned the shit hole into a man cave with a pub, wine barrels and much better models and graphics
3:10 Daisy: I'm about to pull what's called a pro gamer move. 3:11 Daisy: OH NO. Edit: For the Mario Kart 7 segment, were you playing online or perhaps using a mod? If you were in a Grand Prix, it's the first MK7 GP race I've ever seen that didn't include being pelted with blue shells and lightning.

I always loved that Airship Fortress & Desert Hills from the DS represented Super Mario Bros. 3. Nostalgia with Nostalgia 👌🏻
And now it itself has become nostalgic
Dude I always played Wii but distinctly remembered the bullet bill part of this map so I was like did Imagine that?? Where tf is it?? Here she is
Also it’s a nice detail that the ship kept its SMB3 design
@@mangofried Seriously, that time trails thing with funky kong got young me very annoyed
I love how they kind of made the inside of the airship look like a bar in Mario Kart Tour.
A nice place for Bowser's minions to unwind after a day of pillaging.
hopefully this track returns in the mario kart 8 dlc
Yesss
Top ten Mario kart track here
Oh it better, this is such an awesome track that it NEEDS to return!
Airship Fortress and Luigi’s mansion are two of my favourite tracks EVER! They have to both return.
@@MrHalloweenBoO yeah luigi's mansion would be goated
Kids born after 2010 would never know the true pain of trying to become a Mario karting pro on such a small little ds
Kids don't know the pain I went through to unlock everything in Mario Kart Wii when they come to my house
I'm a teenager and I wish Mario kart 8 and tour were like Wii.
Ikr
I truly understand, born in 2003, I put a lot of time but I got 3 stars in 50, 100, 150, and mirror mode…took ages though
@@AusterLiteax If I ever played Mario Kart Wii, I would probably be thinking the opposite, apart from the Mario Kart Tour part. I gave up Mario Kart Tour at the start of the Holiday Tour in December 2019 after playing since launch (September 2019).
Loving the MK8-esque designs for the recent retro tracks! Also glad that they kept the SMB3-like design of the airships instead of an NSMB design.
It's Just the Graphics that are like MK8 but the design itself Isn't
MK8 don't copy and paste layout design
They make new ones while remaining most of the minimap the same
@@sapofazbemechaebom1594 I don't think you are blind but there is a big difference between MK7 and MKT.
@@sapofazbemechaebom1594 Ho wait, you were talking about the layout xd Well, it's hardly difference.
@@luisriver7880 obviously
But not like he says
"MK8-esque"
It Isn't like that
MK8 redesigns the Track from zero, Just remaining the layout/outline
@@luisriver7880 exactly
Finally. There's actually a noticeable *fortress* in Airship Fortress now.
Lmao yes
On a mobile game of all places
BrokamaGay they were all technically on Mobile
Actually, there is a fortress in the DS version. Just go to 0:55 and look ahead. Again, in the 3DS version it is also there with an extra wall added to the tower which you drive in.
@@Gallaer_ Okay, but what I meant is that all it looks like in the DS and 3DS is a single tower. Now it has d e p t h in Tour.
I desperately want this to return. The theme was MADE for the MK8 band!!!
I really like the look of the Mario Kart Tour version (with the exception of it being above lava of course).
5:56
The Airships have Propellers just like from Galaxy.
Yes
Air Fortress, is one of my favorite Tracks, thanks for thit's good memories
I really wanted this course in MK8D, I don't understand why this course was not picked as an obvious choice while they decided that 8 wii courses were necessary.
Probably they wouldn't add any of the Booster Course Pass tracks to the new Mario Kart so they decided to keep this one for it
1: 43
Toad:*surpass aWiibo*
AWiibo: UNACCEPTABALE!!!
*start drifting like an absolute mad man*
Aaaahhh the nostalgia of snaking in MKDS, good times...
1:43
Man I loved this track as a kid, this and Waluigi pinball had great music
This one’s final lap music is the best in the series, maybe behind the thwomp desert fast music
@@zanmolecules4105 Sherbet Land (N64) also has nice final lap music
Damn, I really like this new course! I definitely prefer the MK7 music, but MKT probably looks the nicest imo
Its the same song in 7??
@@LinnyUwU Yeah, but 7's music is a bit more spruced up, you can hear more instruments
One of my favorite tracks is back again, a part of it is its music, it’s so GOoD
I love how we can all look back at these levels because of 2 things, 1. Nostalgia and 2. Want it on the next Booster Course wave
Now that we had Waluigi's Pinball... Now this should be coming!
If it does get into the booster course pass, I hope they spruce it up and actually do some work on it.
@@mrconroy4672 and maybe add the purple ish sky back
Airship Fortress got Mario Circuited...
@@wouter.d.h.dude, stop. There clearly won’t be a BCP2.
Airship Fortress has always been one of my favorites. Nostalgia lol
i don't like the fact that they added lava
it looked so much better in the air with that crepuscular atmosphere
Yeah it used to be a sky themed course with purple skies but now it’s more lava themed but I do like the airship interior
I love the the way the music changes with the lightning and kicks back in from 6:36-6:46.
My favorite MK course of all time and I'm 100% sure the Tours version will be one of the 48 MK8Dx dlc courses
It would definitely be an unwelcome surprise if it wasn't. It seems to be a fan favourite
This needs to be a dlc, I don’t care if every course is garbage, as long as this one is in
Is it Airship Fortress ?
WRONG. Mario Circuit.
Nintendo: Nah Mario Circuit better.
Anyone else hoping Airship Fortress makes it into the Booster Course Pass?
EDIT: Ah well. Better luck next game.
はい
DS was my first Mario Kart and I distinctly remember this being my favorite track as a child because of the cannon, I thought it was super unique and had never seen it before on a track.

Damn
Same
I guess... it's over
2:38 WHOA! That's Dangerously Violent! :O
Can we talk about how cracked this guy was playing on the ds version? Goddamn!!
I agree
I hope they select this track for the next couple of booster packs
Used to be one of my favs on DS... How has it been that long lol
If this is already remade for tour it'll be easier to bring it to switch
Well...
The Nostalgia....
I wish it made it into the dlc, but it didn’t
It was my fav course
Now why isn’t this in 8DX? I don’t know. Should this be in 8DX, absolutely.
Now there’s a bar for no reason
Hey, shy guys work really hard! >:c
A fully stocked bar.
That's why they've updated this version.
I honestly prefer Tour’s version over the rest. I love tracks that take place when the sun is setting and now you can actually see the fortress in the background.
And the wine barrel wall leading to the bar area looks very cool too
But the lava...💀
My only gripe with the tour version is the sky. The sky doesn’t really fit the vibe of the track to me
nah the lava looks so shit and out of place. The original is meant to take place high in the sky beside a tall fortress but in this it just looks weird
The inside of the fortress in Tour’s version is very pretty, which is nice because it was always a little bland in the other ones
Literally my fav track in mkds, they better bring this back in the booster packs for mk8d
Here’s hoping it appears in this direct coming up 🤞🙏
I really hope this is brought back for a future wave in MK8!
DS Will always be the OG
Hopefully this will be the last DS track for MK8DX.
Well...
MY DUDES, just listen to that BEAT
3:16
It only happens when your in 1st and gain a set amount of speed.
It's calling frontrunning, and yes, the song gets an additional beat.
I’m pretty sure I can speak on behalf of us that this is the best mario kart track ever or one of at least
This should’ve returned (at least Waluigi Pinball returned, though. Which I think is the best track in the franchise) 😤
3:11 Idk if it’s just me but… AM I THE ONLY ONE WHO THINKS ITS CRAZY THAT HE DIDN’T GET HIT?!
Kinda funny how each time this course appears, the ship is closer to the lava xd
Mario Kart 7 didn't have lava it was just the sky gradient that had almost the same color as lava.
@@el_polloloco6247 I mean DS it was way above in the sky, 3DS still cloudy, but you can see the lava's glow, and Tour the lava is now directly below the airships and fully visible
Its as if the towering fortress is sinking deeper and deeper each game

Jasper 6 The controls aren’t that good in my opinion
@@jasperthe3393 Yes but imagine how much better it would be to have all this content in MK8DX
Don’t you mean Mario Kart 9? I’m pretty sure the makers of Mario kart 8 deluxe are done making new content for a 6 year old game now...
@@normanalan Maybe they could have added more to the game if Tour never existed
the ds cannon felt the most powerful
Is no one gonna talk about the music? It tastes rlly good!
DS Airship Fortress is Actually my favorite track, because it’s the one that I played the most
MKDS has water under the ships while MK7 and MKT Has lava under the ships.
AIRSHIP FORTRESS
I really hope this comes out for Mario kart 8 deluxe it wasone of my most favorite tracks
I literally had no idea this track existed until I saw the MKT trailer
You must be so depressed because you’ve never played Mario Kart DS
@AlphaPWNY that too!!!
price hearn I’ve actually played both games before I just don’t remember this track
@Ricky Archuleta III they’re both great games 😁
Rip 😢
My brother and I flipped when we say this stage got into Mario Kart Tour!
i dont like how the newer ones go for a more golden look, i miss the original dark and purple look that made the track feel cold. I realize the reality is that if this track came back, they'd just port it from Tour, but I'd still like to see this track return to its roots if they did use it in the DLC
Don't mind me. Just Ultra Turboing off the spiral staircase!
Pretty high up there in terms of best Mario Kart ost in my book. Because holy hell this theme is such a BOP
Finally... I can see the Comparison 🤘🤘🤘 I love this track.. so legend
3:10 daisy dies
I miss this track
Airship fortress was done dirty in tour. It looks more like something from paper Mario and the evil feel it had is gone. It's more like a log cabin mixed with an evening drive. plus the sped-up final lap music sounds like shit.
3:36
I DIDN'T EVEN TOUCH HIM, MOM!
I love this course and it’s in Mario Kart Tour 😭
I’m so glad nintendo hasn’t changed the song to sound more “modern”
I loved this stage purely for the music it used to scare me as a lil kid and then it grew on me and nows it one of my favorite mk tracks
rob in mario kart ds is so op, dang
I *really* hope Airship Fortress comes to Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. Who wouldn't want to play this part (6:34) on a big screen for the first time?
That's why I'm here ;)
People need to rip more tracks from Mario kart tour into mk8 because tour doesn’t look too bad.
Oof I missed a return of my long time favourite Mario kart map
This is my favorite track
This is m'y favourite Mario Kart Track Ever.
YOU ROCK
Truly, the only problem with the tour version is that they put a shy guy bar inside the airship, they should at least use koopas, I don't remember shy guys being in SMB3.
bomb-ombs.... oh wait 💥
Omg I will never forget the Rob.
They should bring it to Mario Kart 8 Deluxe but the map should be the one from Mario Kart Tour cause it’s a remake
Imagine waiting for this course to come back to Tour, nahh true alphas just emulate 3DS on their phone and play MK7 airship fortress
You forgot Mkwii airship fortress custom track
That’s true!
that's the first thing i thought
Custom tracks do not count.
Poor Lakitu 3:37
Mario kart ds 😍😍😍😍
The only thing I don’t like in the remakes is the glider (I mean don’t get me wrong overall those are great for the games but it’s just for this track it kinda ruins the feeling of adrenaline when you’re being shot out of the cannon.)
This and waluigi pinball have the same frontrunning theme
By far my fav track of mario kart ds
This is my favorite mario kart track
0:03 0:05 0:45 That sounds remind me a thunders and storm.
Oh my God airship fortress it's back I looooooovvvvvvvveeeeeee it soooooo muuuuuuuccccccchhhhhhh
Music always slapped on the DS
Mario kart tour did this track perfectly
I kinda like the tour version, In my opinion it looks more alive
In my opinion
Why does Shy Guy sound like an angry cat?
Something seems…off about that DS footage
Mario kart DS 2005
Mario kart 7 2011
Mario kart tour 2020 in the pirate tour any shell will earn you green coins event coins
１:３９の飛び方がえぐい
I can’t wait for it to be remade again, it went from meh to the same track but with better graphics to they turned the shit hole into a man cave with a pub, wine barrels and much better models and graphics
3ds is the best in my opinion

My favorite ds track
I like airship fortress on Mario kart tour and I saw a gold dry bowser on Mario kart tour which is a character I have
i hope we get a remaster of the theme someday
Imagine how stunning the Tour version would look if properly remastered for MK8
Exactly, it better make it in!
