I agree with you on every points.

I personally dislike Tour Sky-High Sunday but I think Baby Park is just the only goofy aah race that we have in Mario Kart. It's the only 7 laps track too and is fun to play with all the chaos happening (however it's still missing the Bowser Shell bouncing around in the track...)

During a MKPC competitive match, I was about to dodge a Blue Shell by jumping in a hole in a place filled with holes everywhere... Here's the 500000 IQ move I pulled (Grandmaster rank btw):

That's what happens when you're born in 2025:

Unfortunately, it's not because you, a random player, want something right now that it will automatically be added into the game. I've showed you the reasons why the coins wouldn't be a great thing. Therefore coins will not be added into the game.

I don't think coins would be a good addition to the game because of a few reasons:

- Time Trials leaderboard would require a full reset because of the new coin mechanic
- In Online, because of the insane amount of chaos, the player in 1st would win almost every time as being in 1st place is the safest spot in a game (the only item that can kill them is the Blue Shell). Adding coins would just make 1st place go a lot faster because they will hardly ever get impacted by the chaos going on behind.
- It would require EVERY SINGLE creators to add coins in their track which would take an enourmous amount of time for not that much of a great mechanic.
- Some Challenges would become way easier with the addition of coins, mostly the ones where you need to frontrun a track like "Complete the track in less than a specific time..." or "Finish in the 1st position" challenges.

In my opinion, the game is fine without coins. Could you tell me here why do you "Need" the developpers to add coins?

• "More Items"
We currently have these items in standard item distributions:


However, you're probably unaware but the game actually has 2 other items that barely anyone knows! These items are:

Note: Both of these items are custom item distribution exclusive. To unlock the Dark Shell item, you have to specifically type "darkshell" in the custom item distribution menu (make sure to click on the item distribution before typing otherwise it won't work).
For now, we don't need anymore items. I'm sure you can have lots of fun with all the chaos that these items create during races!


• "More Battle Modes"
New Battle Modes would be absolutely incredible but it would take forever to code so we are probably going to stick with Balloon Battle for a while.


• "Courses For N64, GameCube, 3DS, Wii, Wii U, Switch, Also, Battle Courses For GameCube, 3DS, Wii, Wii U, And Switch, characters From SNES, N64"
Race tracks and battle arenas from every Mario Kart games were all already created by the Mario Kart PC community using Custom Track Editor. You can play them all already!
As for the characters, you can just type the name of the character you want to play with in the custom character menu and you will surely find what fits you the best!

You are CORRECT! Anthcny programmed the POW Block from nothing to what it's like today.
Great job!

1. In early 2025, 45% of Impossible Challenges were created by me and @Venodac64
2. I am not transphobic
3. @Wargor programmed the POW Block and every other item

1. I know how to dodge a blue shell in MKPC using a mushroom
2. I owned at least one world record in MKPC Time Trials
3. I've once been banned from MKPC

And you know why?

i MIGHT be terrible at this game.

Guys, please calm down. It seems like my "which one would you choose" is starting to create a drama and I'm against this.
Instead of judging blindly someone else's opinion, try to first take a step back and ask yourself why did they make that choice.
By thinking like this, you are first of all avoiding any form of drama, and second of all you are debating in a very mature and peaceful way, which is what we're aiming for! ^^
I'm going to explain the differences between the Poison Mushroom and the POW Block and why do people think one is good, the other is bad, and vice versa. I will then give my personal opinion on each items.

• Poison Mushroom:
The poison mushroom was an item first introduced as a CPU Only item in Super Mario Kart. It basically acts the same as the way it did before: It spins out the player and shrinks them for a short time.
        • Positive aspects: The poison mushroom being back in Mario Kart PC gives it a very nostalgic effect for some players. This item, being obtainable in the early-middle spots can act like a strong defensive item. It can be trailed and thus block any incoming shells.
Because of the shrinking effect it gives on hit, players have to be very carefully not to hit one because it can definetly ruin their race because of the big time loss.
        • Negative aspects: This item can be seen as very repetitive item that isn't necessarily needed in Mario Kart PC: it is basically just a banana but a bit better or a bob-omb but worse. Players may just see this item simply as another trailable item that doesn't have much difference from other items.
Personal Opinion: I don't mind about the poison mushroom, I do think it deserves its place in the distribution although sometimes it can be quite annoying if you're aiming to have a mushroom but end up having a poison mushroom instead. It happened to me multiple times that I wanted to dodge a blue shell with a mushroom but the moment I press the item key to shroom dodge I just end up trailing a poison because I had a poison mushroom instead of a normal mushroom... (shame on me for that xD).


• POW Block:
The POW block made its first appearance as an item in Mario Kart Wii. Upon using it, a POW block will appear on every player's screen that are ahead of player who used the item, and will crash 3 times. On the third and final crash, any player who isn't in a dodge state or in the air with a cannon or a jump will get spun out and lose their items. This item never came back in any other official Mario Kart games after Mario Kart Wii.
        • Positive aspects: The POW block being able to hit multiple players at once and make them lose their items makes it an EXTREMELY powerful item. A POW block has to be used very wisely for it to have a maximum efficiency. Just like the poison mushroom, the POW block being back in Mario Kart PC (with a very rare chance of being pulled in the standard distribution) makes it a very nostalgic item and it's good to see forgotten items being alive again.
        • Negative aspects: Despite its extreme strenght, a very probable reason the POW block never returned in any other Mario Kart game is because of how random it is and how similar it is to the lightning.
It's just a lightning but worse for multiple reasons: it only hits players who are in front of the user, it has a less big effect on players and it is predictable. Today, many players see this item as the "mini shock".
Personal Opinion: I'm personally a big fan of the chaos created by every item during Mario Kart races and items like the POW block which can litteraly hit so many players at once and making them drop all their items is exactly what I love to see.
Some people may call me crazy but me loving chaos is also the reason why I like the other hated items such as: Thundercloud, Blue Shell, Lightning and Kamek. I call those items the "Chaos" items.


Of course guys, it's normal if some of you don't agree with my statements and it's completely okay to agree or not agree with something! Everyone is allowed to have their own opinion and it's always great to see different opinions from everyone, even if they're out of the ordinary (just like me liking the thundercloud as an item for example xD). Hoping to see more votes from other people!

Note that I've added the number of votes that an item recieved so people can see clearly the general opinion about items that people want removed the most (remember that it's only a simple question, for those who might have misunderstood nothing will actually be removed).

If you could remove 3 items from the standard MKPC item distribution, which ones would you choose?
Here is the item list:

⬆️ Remove Blue Shells permanently and make Shocks thrice more frequent
⬇️ Remove Shocks permanently and make Blue Shells twice more frequent

Give me France please.
