Route - English Version Route
Updated 4 years ago by Spec3x

The English ver. route does 3 100-coin bonus laps: Coaster Lake (+100), Star Express (+100), Dyna Mountain (+100)

  • Buy from 0 to 2 P-Bombs for Ski Course's shortcut

  • Play, in any order, Bomber Circuit (no bonus) and Coaster Lake (+100 coin lap) Time left should be 70 / 65 / 60 for 2 / 1 / 0 P-Bombs (respectively). If you go under, go back a menu and sell p-bombs acoordingly.

  • Finish Star Express with a 100 coin lap (DO NOT play Beach/Ski before this)

  • Depending on the tracks you choose to do after Star Ex and before Dyna your time left must be: 40 for Beach+Ski 30 for Ski any for Beach

  • Beat the rest of the tracks, finishing Dyna Mountain (+100 coin lap)

  • The sum of Dyna+Star Ex time left must be at least 30 (which is very trivial)

It's not worth it to play the English version if you're initially running the game on emu or just for fun. I encourage you to read the Japanese route breakdown first. Regardless, here's how US ver. goes:

  • Without playing a bonus round for extra money, you can ONLY access: Bomber Circuit, Coaster Lake (yes, you're 100 coins short of accessing Beach Side).

  • The starting money along with all track profits add up to... -2200! (yes, negative) You'll need an extra 6800 to get access to Bomber Castle, which costs 4600 (not accounting P-Bomb purchases).

  • Given that you HAVE to play a bonus lap of one of the first two tracks, Coaster Lake is the best choice, since it gives you 1300 with a 70 finish (74 is possible afaik)

  • So, if you play both tracks with Lake's 100 coin lap, you can access Star Express, IF your time left is: 70, buying 2 P-Bombs 65, buying 1 P-Bomb 60, buying none (you start with 100, circuit profit is +100, coaster lake's is +100, math it up) (if you come up short of one of those times, go back a menu and sell P-bomb(s) acoordingly)

  • Star Express and Ski Course's bonus laps both give you 2100 for getting 100 coins and its extra bonus. Star Express is the considerably faster, so only consider playing Ski's bonus instead if you're not even good enough for doing Lake's 100 coin lap with 60 time left (which can be trivially done with not much practice, and it should be the first track of your route, so I encourage you to not play Ski bonus for this ever).

  • DO NOT play Beach Side or Ski Course after Circuit & Lake, and before Star Express. You'll LOSE MONEY (-100 and -400 respectively) and there's no benefit to it besides making you not be able to buy P-Bombs or be short on money, having to back up on Ski 100. If you're going for the Beach shortcut, are inconsistent with it, and want to do it early, your best options are: 1) don't reset on them ; 2) don't go for them in runs yet ; 3) practice more

  • So far, the "extra" money amounts to 3400, of 6800 needed (not accounting Star Ex 100 time left)

  • The next fastest bonus lap that gives us a lot of money is Dyna Mountain (my current best is 72, while Beach is 76, Lake 74)

  • You'll have 3100 coins after Star Express (not accounting Star Ex 100 time left), which is enough for the Dyna Mountain ticket! (3000)

  • In case you finish this bonus with less than 30 time left, do not play Ski Course after Star Express. You'll lose 400 coins and won't be able to access Dyna. Whatever backup for it would be absolutely terrible. Playing Beach Side after it is 100% fine in whatever P-Bomb economy you're using.

  • Dyna Mountain's 100 coins and bonus gives us 3100

  • The "extra" money amounts to 6500. We need a trivial amount of 30 time left on Dyna and Star Ex 100 coin bonuses altogether to reach the rest.
