Talk:Paris Promenade

adding trivia

is it worth adding that this is the first course in the Mario Kart series to be a classic course in a came that game out before the game it came from? it's considered a classic course in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, which released in 2017, but this course is from Mario Kart Tour, which released in 2019 RSM, hoping to make amends soon. 12:25, February 27, 2022 (EST)

I mean, isn't that the case for every single track from Mario Kart Tour that will make it to the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe - Booster Course Pass? Even then, this is not the absolute first one since there is 3 Mario Kart Tour exclusive tracks that will be released on wave 1. And the Booster Course Pass is from 2022, not 2017. So they are considered retro tracks right now. And even considering all that, yes, these tracks are from a theoretically newer game, but are included in a game that launched in 2017. But with everything I said, I just think it's not absolutely true, plus is not specific to this track at all. 08:17, February 28, 2022 (EST)

Page rename now?

Since Paris Promenade and Tokyo Blur are technically now in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe via the 2.0.0 update, and their icons are visible clearly showing the prefixes, is it time to add the prefix to the title or do we wait until its actually playable?

I believe we should wait until the track releases. Nightwicked Bowser 12:35, March 17, 2022 (EDT)

Request for new article for the MK8DX version of the track

Note: To refer to the track found in Tour I'll say Paris Promenade 1 and to refer to the track found in 8 Deluxe I'll say Paris Promenade DX.

Should Tour Paris Promenade (and by extension Tour Tokyo Blur and every city course to come) be a separate article from "Paris Promenade 1"? My reasons are:

• This article's purpose before the Booster Course Pass was to refer to the first layout of the overall Paris Promenade map in Tour
• Paris Promenade DX has an entirely different layout and works entirely different than Paris Promenade 1
• Paris Promenade 2 and Paris Promenade 3 from Tour won't make it to the DLC because the places those courses visit in the overall Paris Promenade map are already visited in Paris Promenade DX, so it wouldn't make sense to put that the "first layout" made it to the DLC but the second and third didn't when the last two technically did

The MK8DX track would then be separated to its own article called "Tour Paris Promenade", while the Tour track of the same name would keep its place in this article.

Please let me know if my reasons aren't very clear or understandable before rejecting or accepting the idea, and please know that I'm open to any discussion or counterarguments that this might generate.

That actually might be a good idea, honestly. I'd even argue doing away with console abbreviations entirely, though that's a discussion for another time. Though I'll wait to see what anyone else has to say in the matter. ^(T|C) 23:46, March 17, 2022 (EDT)

I think that sounds reasonable. The track layout, for starters, is not the same as Paris Promenade. And the naming isn't conflicting with anything either, as Paris Promenade refers to Tour's first variation of the track, which itself is technically not in MK8D. Same goes for Tokyo Blur, at in that case, it's technically three tracks in one, but none of them individually. Point is, I agree with this idea. Tails777 Talk to me!

all necessary info is perfectly explained here, I see no reason why an entire page should be made when the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe section on this article explains it perfectly. There isn't a page for other tracks that change layout between games (Sunset Wilds, Sky Garden, Wario Stadium, etc.) all Nintendo did was remove or add some barriers, that does not require a new article.
