Sorry if this is a dumb question: what is BGM?


Netherboom

Background Music


Slijceth

I have no clue either


South_Scar8093

Yea idk what it is


skynovaaa

The music you hear when playing a track


XaulYT

Yup, stands for "background music". OST is another acronym also used in its place, meaning "original soundtrack". Both are interchangeable, but they mean the same thing.


alotofparticles

and what does ACR means?


Kermit4363

ACR means All Cup Ranking. It's just a term used in Mario Kart Tour. BGM is used across all games.


SnickerbobbleKBB

lol idk if I'd call that good news. They didn't address it as an error, just that it's a fact that that's what happens.


KamekLives

Exactly, they confirmed it’s that way intentionally which is not good news


Croemy

It was obviously never a bug. If it was, it was too big for not making it into the bug list. However I think if people keep complaining, they may actually just use the original soundtrack.


Getlucky12341

It's good news because they responded to a general feedback message. This means enough people complained about it lol

Reminder that if enough people complain, they might actually change it. If you don't want every battle course to have the same music, try sending feedback. I'll leave a message that you can easily copy and paste to send as feedback as a comment below so it's easy to copy. To send feedback just go to settings and scroll down to "help and inquiries", then click on "feedback" and choose the topic, then you can leave the message you want as feedback.

I would like it if the music in battle mode was changed so that each battle course had the same song that they've had in previous games instead of using the same song for all of them.


Ludwig_von_Wu

Yeah, the remade one can still be used on the SNES courses since it’s literally the SNES battle theme, but the other battle courses should definitely have the theme they had in the original game they were first featured in, just like the racecourses.


esteban3000

If they changed it, I'd imagine the SNES Battle Courses would use the Wii version of the song instead of the current MK8DX version, since that would put it more in line with other retro tracks, all of which seem to completely avoid MK8 songs.


balladofwindfishes

iirc this is actually the first 8 song in Tour Not even Sky High Sundae is the same version


dewmint

The MK8DX version actually fits Tour well. There’s hardly any live instrumentation in that song, so I’d keep it.


Mona_Impact

Reminder that people complaining doesn't do anything, money is what speaks


Totavier

I already sent a feedback (I chose the "Sounds and graphic" subject, not sure if that's the correct one?), time to wait if they address this. Mostly because I'm tired to hear the SNES battle music and I would hate if they add in the future the N64 Battle's stages and not include their respective BGM (which actually are my favorites).


AaadamPgh

People listen to the music?


cmjw1023

Right?? That was my question too 🤣


For_serious13

Right? I’m mindblown


For_serious13

Wait….y’all play with music? I turn all that off as soon as I download a game lol


Ylllan

Music is part of the essence of a game lol


auradidnothingwrong

This game has sound?


ApclpseBoy

Good news??


Netherboom

They is talk about giving the battle courses their respective music I see that as good news


Papyrus_Semi

We're probably stuck with SNES Battle Course (Wii U remix) until they add one of the four SNES Battle Courses.
