Well, wave 2 came and certainly was better than the first one. Not only the tracks look closer to the ones of the base game but are also really fun to play. Here are my thoughts on them.
New York Minute: It has to be my favorite city course so far. The variations in the laps are better than those in the first wave.
Mario Circuit 3: Good to have it back. I would rather have the second one, but this is fine.
Kalimari Desert: The lap variation transformed one of the worst tracks of MK64 into one of the better ones.
Waluigi Pinball: Great as always.
Sydney Sprints: Long and fun. Great track and grat music.
Snow Land: Loved it. Even when I thought this would be my least favorite, it ended up being really fun to play.
Sky-High Sundae: Kind of a let down, but having the whole track as a no-rails antigravity one certainly helps in making it fun to play.
Overall an improvement over the first one and I can only hope to see the next waves become better and better over time.
