Surprisingly, the official page for the Booster Course Pass reveals that you’ll be able to play the courses locally so long as one person in your group has bought the pass. Even more generous, after a few days tracks will be added to the Random online selection, allowing anybody to play them, even if they don’t know somebody who owns the pass. Now, Nintendo’s blurb does specifically mention “Wave 1," raising the possibility that they won’t be so generous with future waves (there will be six in total). It seems unlikely Nintendo would do that, but then again, the company moves in mysterious ways. By the way, here are the 8 tracks that will be included in Wave 1 of the Booster Course Pass… Golden Dash Cup

Paris Promenade (Mario Kart Tour) Toad Circuit (Mario Kart 7) Choco Mountain (Mario Kart 64) Coconut Mall (Mario Kart Wii)

Lucky Cat Cup

Tokyo Blur (Mario Kart Tour) Shroom Ridge (Mario Kart DS) Sky Garden (Mario Kart: Super Circuit) Ninja Hideaway (Mario Kart Tour)

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is available now on Nintendo Switch. The Booster Course Pass will be available on March 18 for $25 or for “free” with a Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pass subscription.
