Would any of these be possible in Mariokart 8 with the feather? Or was that only in battle mode

Hearing your voice from a 13 year old to now sounding like a 18 year old is insane. The amount of effort you put in your videos are incredible, keep up the good work ❤

I genuinely thought he was a girl up until the last MK8D video (the only ones I've seen from him)

I love how, despite the track looking like it would be an immediate write off as impossible, Coconut Mall is somehow possible backwards in every game it appears in.

crazy how lakitu, the one that tries to stop you, is the reason some of these are possible

You don’t know how dissatisfied I was when I found out mirror mode just meant the tracks were flipped instead of being backwards. I hope in the next Mario kart we finally get that, I’ve always wanted to be able to play them backwards, and with all the stuff the last 2 games have added (glider, underwater, zero g), it’s 100% possible for them to make courses make sense backwards. Cool to know how many are possible without any changes tho

The 3D visuals for Royal Raceway and Animal Crossing blew my mind. As is apparently typical, the editing just gets better and better and better

I think it’s really cool how different all the tracks look and play backwards, and I think it’d be cool if Nintendo added a way to play them backwards officially

Nintendo has done it before, but only in small amounts. DS had some missions where you'd race backwards, whereas Wii had online tournaments that were like mission mode. I think Tour has them too but I honestly can't be bothered to go and check.

It’s honestly amazing how much of this you were able to figure out on your own before even knowing the backwards server existed haha a lot of these strategies are not at all obvious so big props to you

When you got to the point of saying “We need to understand how Lakitu works”, I was expecting the SM64 File Select music to start playing

Nathaniel Bandy tried this back when the game released and I've been wanting to see someone try it with the dlc ones. I finally get to see that!

It’s honestly really fascinating and cool to see how many people are dedicated to doing this, and the creative solutions everyone comes up with to accomplish them! The Squeaky Clean Sprint pipe jump is super cool. Gg!

2:50 never noticed the adorable jump animation for the shy guy lol

Awesome video! You should retry the ones you barely couldn't do with a higher/max speed combo. Might just be enough to get you that extra distance Shy guy is based though

Your use of 3D viewovers of the tracks look so good

Wonderful video! This dropped into my Recommended feed, so it looks like the support behind it is definitely working. I've loved the idea of driving backwards on these tracks for years, even the ones that can't be fully done. (MK8 Rainbow Road is a trip when you enter the split paths the wrong way.) Very fascinating to see just how many can truly be traversed this way. And I'm super happy to see a fellow fan of playing as Shy Guy! :D

I started watching back with the Yoshi valley video, can’t believe it’s been 2 years! Glad to see how much your channel’s grown and keep up the great stuff!

Can confirm that jopes spent a long time researching this backwards stuff also at 1:49 it is likely due to the regular excuse of checkpoints , you don't actually need to hit the corner. Whenever I do speedruns of this category I usually just hit the wee barred part to be safe (you can also just skip this 10 sec time lose but is very hard)

Wow, this is such a cool video to showcase this cool pasttime in Mario kart 8 deluxe. Very impressive how many you found, along with the help of the community! Some of these feel mind blowing to me, like Music Park and Mushroom Gorge. I saw Nathaniel Bandy attempt Mushroom Gorge backwards himself, and he made it to the second green mushroom, but even so the fact you can get past that and complete the lap is just insane.

All of them, in Tour. That was one of the few brilliant ideas that game had, and I hope they keep it for the next installment. I’d honestly find it way more appealing than, say, mirror mode.

Your videos never get old.

That was such an interesting video! I really respect all the time you put into this :D Well done!

Very entertaining video and visuals + competent editing. I love weird challanges and I enjoyed this video.

This needs to be a speedrunning category

Great video as usual :) I hope your channel will grow as much as you expect it, you deserve it.

I love seeing your channel grow dude! Keep up this amazing work

I remember doing this with Mario Kart DS! This brings me back, but man, you put in so much more effort than I ever did. Amazing work.

Another great video. Love seeing this channel grow with every upload!

Man you have grown. Keep up the trend man. Starting to think with the music note if it was to be the case, Nintendo could make these notes faster (such as changing them from quavers to semi quavers) to make this game easier and faster. This is a really good video suggestion. Great stuff Jopes.

Yo! I was looking this up to see if anyone had done this and then I realized it was you! Nice to see you, man.

Amazing vid, bro! Keep up the good work!

Last time I saw you on the internet, you sounded so much younger than this! Cool knowing you’re still around doing Mario kart stuff, keep up the good work!

When I was younger, me and my brothers would play mario cart on the Wii and my dad would sometimes challenge himself by doing the first lap backwards before catching up and taking first place anyway. He only did this on easy backwards tracks though

i feel like if more groundbreaking discoveries get made this topic could make for a great summoningsalt video

Interesting video, as always! Keep up the good work! :)

Wow your voice changed a lot! Seeing you grow up and your video quality increasing is just awesome. Keep up the good work my dude!

Damn this is impressive. But hopping onto the train and skipping all the obstacles made me laugh

Very well done. It would be cool if the Reverse Cup became real some day, though only with a portion of its game's courses since others would have to lose some of their crazier elements to support it.

I've always wondered this when playing Mario Kart DS as a kid, so it's cool to see that so many others wondered this as well.

What a gem of a channel! Just went through some of the back catalog and had a few surprises (the voice was one haha), but all the videos are consistently excellent! Subscribed!

Here's a fun fact about how the Tour cities, N64 Kalimari Desert, DS Peach Gardens and Piranha Plant Cove work. The tracks that have lakitu pick up the player when driving backwards are the ones where you drive backwards for the final lap (Paris Promenade, Sydney Sprint, Berlin Byways, Peach Gardens, Singapore Speedway, Athens Dash, and if my predictions are right maybe Madrid Drive). Tokyo Blur does the same, but that's because the pathway for laps 1 and 2 isn't blocked off in lap 3.

By the way, Boo Lake, Daisy Cruiser, Mushroom Gorge, Snow Land, Waluigi Stadium, Choco Mountain (when it was Possible), were all discovered by me lol (Waluigi stadium was actually co discovered by both me and placid mink)

Wait this is actually sick! I'm glad I stuck around for this ❤

Sounds like a fun time with friends, racing to see who can complete some of these backwards first

cool vid, the fact theres a whole community for this is crazy

Those 3D visuals are insane I mean, even Baby Park's got one, and you don't even talk about how you conquered that one backwards - especially since Lakitu likes to keep respawning you when you even try going backwards 😭

A way to keep Lakitu from pulling you away is using reverse (on switch) click and hold the B button to go backwards, which is how I did it back then when I tried it (and the DLC courses didn’t exist at the time) but it makes it much slower and difficult, but still Lakitu won’t do anything at all to stop you

Awesome stuff I also like how you explained why you want people to sub, others dont despite me already being subbed to them, idk why it helps them out Im being a little silly yet mostly serious

This is actually insanely cool to watch. Waiting for this to become a niche speedrun category lol

Jopes gotta be one of the most underrated youtubers. He puts 101% into his vids and it shows. Keep up the excellent work.

How the heck did you get the recording at 2:59? That was so cool! Great work on this video.

Great video Jopes!

Mad respect by pulling out the maps for observation use

12:28 "Cause Lakitu to have a stroke," Best delivery of this line he could have possibly done 😂

You make the literall best vidoes and you put in so much effort, and it really shows

Great video, can’t wait for a Wave 6 update. I imagine most of those tracks will be very difficult to do backwards.

Oh boy cant wait to try these out

Holy youre voice changed so much. Ive been watching you since the beginning (the first video). Keep up the good work.

9:12 "I crashed into the toilet" Best line I've ever heard!! 🤣🤣

I love these type of challenges that give new life to the game.

i just rediscovered your channel today and your voice sounds so different! keep up the good work m8 :)

you are one of the best "smaller" creators that I watch lol this is an interesting video idea

Probably the highest quality young content creator on the entire platform. Not to mention you pull out math that even most us adults will just nod along too. Keep up the amazing work, can't wait to see this channel grow and evolve

Very impressive. You even broke some game boundaries and used some glitches. Ggs.

you sound like a completely different person now lol, thats crazy! great video!

Alternate title: making Lakitu lose his shit for 14 minutes

Remember how the og MK8’s battle mode used actual race tracks and they had to be drivable backwards?

That coconut mall explanation was great. Just found your channel!

Awesome Wirtual music at the end there!

for some reason this type of video format makes me kinda nostalgic. just smth about a good quality and fun video about a fun sounding idea in a game i enjoy a lot. :3

you always make the coolest videos!! keep up the good work!❤

no way bro i remeber seeing one of your videos a while ago and you sounded so young. Time flies i guess. keep up the work.

Just the idea of the video is great, hearing your voice change is pretty insane, continue making videos, they're great

Didn’t notice your voice change till I watch old Yoshi valley then was like whaaaaaaaat lol keep up the good content

This is something I did about a year ago but this was before the booster course pass but it can be fun trying to experiment with seeing what is possible and what is not

Love your stuff keep it up!

Bro Your mike has gotten way better! Same with your content! (it was good before anyway, now it's better)

Very cool. I love seeing how people break these games.

Respect the amount of effort put into this video; that's a sub from me

This video really reminds me of Nathaniel Bandy’s video since he did backwards on every Mario kart like 4-5 years ago

“Lakitu having a stroke” Lakitu in real life: Dies from a Stroke

Incredible video once again!

There is a (backwards) run of squeaky clean sprint where they land on the toilet without dying Pretty cool and nice video
