Mario Kart 8 Deluxe - Crossing Cup 100cc
0It is time to finish off 100cc with the last two cups, and in this one, I do the Crossing Cup. In this one, I go with Villager from Animal Crossing, and the one I go with is the boy Villager, I remember in the base game for Mario Kart 8, both Villagers had the same character slot, but in this game, they are treated as separate characters.
We get some interesting tracks for the Grand Prix, so that is GCN Baby Park, GBA Cheese Land, Wild Woods, and Animal Crossing. Those are some good track choices for the second DLC update for Mario Kart 8, even if Baby Park has 7 laps and it was in Mario Kart DS as a Retro Track, so it is at least good to see that track return to this game.
The vehicle combination I went with on Villager is Streetle, Leaf Tyres, and Paper Glider, and outside of Europe, it is Leaf Tires, this does look like an Animal Crossing themed combination, and this is one the boy Villager uses as a CPU player, and the girl Villager uses different parts as a CPU. For Villager's other vehicle combination, the Standard set is one, the second one is Biddybuggy, or Buggybud in Europe, Standard tires, and Super Glider, and the fourth combination is City Tripper, Slim, and Paper Glider. Each of the Animal Crossing character have similar vehicle combinations, the boy Villager is the only one that uses the Streetle, all three use the City Tripper.
As I went over with Tanooki Mario and Inkling Boy, Villager is a mediumweight character with decent speed, acceleration, and handling, so he is at least a good character in terms of stats, and his rival in the Grand Prix is Isabelle. I did check on Super Mario Wiki, and the Animal Crossing characters have rivals that form a triangle, so the order of playable character to CPU rival is boy Villager, then Isabelle, and then girl Villager, and it is good to see two Animal Crossing characters included in the DLC.
