Just got it been playing for hour or two. Really enjoy online play, really smooth stuff. Been going back and forth between wheel and GC controller. Might have to do Wii Mote Nunchuch combo. Can't figure how to keep items behind me when using wheel (ie hold a green shell behind me for protection) Also can't get boost with Gamecube on jumps, assume you can with Wii mote nunchuck combo

Add all friend codes here.

Drakul 04-27-2008 05:39 AM

Hold left or right on the d-pad when you have anything like a shell, banana or a fake ? block and you'll hold it behind you. Even if it's not for protection, you can hold the item behind you and collect another item.

(highlight to read characters) Funky Kong and all them

I unlocked Funky Kong after unlocking 4 expert ghosts. Didn't even have to beat the expert ghosts, I just unlocked four of them and the game told me I unlocked Funky.

Came out today, going to pick up my copy now.

PapaGeorgio 04-27-2008 12:47 PM

Question, how do you unlock expert ghosts. I've beaten a few ghost trials but never unlocked any experts.

Extreme Angle 04-27-2008 01:20 PM

I've just been beating normal ghosts... Haven't done 150cc yet...

G 04-27-2008 02:09 PM

WTF I'm having such a hard time with bike drifting. I'm so use to the easy drifting on the DS.

5026-4824-3606 I suck btw.

G 04-27-2008 03:49 PM

This is by far the best MK.


I was 4-0 online, until some guy named Hitler (had the mustache and all) was glitching or something. I would be first with only 4 Mii's on the map, then he would pop up out of nowhere way ahead of me and I'd be second. This would happen every lap. We played on DK Jungle from the 64. :mad:

PapaGeorgio 04-27-2008 04:00 PM

I agree, really loving the game right now. Especially online, Nintnedo did it mostly right online, besides voice chat stuff everything else is pretty pimp online. BTW My online Mii is Big Waz, ya'll look out for me, cause you'll only see my back side when I'm whoopin ya'll

G 04-27-2008 04:38 PM

I'm going to add everyone here. I have no clue what I'm doing regarding friends and shit.

PapaGeorgio 04-27-2008 04:59 PM

Add me I'm playing online right now

ClockShot 04-27-2008 07:18 PM

Just got it and played a couple cup races.

Wow. I got triple teamed way too often, and got bombed with blue shells like 10 times within 30 minutes.

This is gonna take a while to get used too.

I think you need to beat the staff ghost by 2 or 3 seconds at least. I've beaten a few by a second or less and it didn't give me an expert ghost.

I'll probably add people from here. Would I need to ad their Wii code aswell or just the MKWii code?

U-Warrior 04-27-2008 10:21 PM

Beat all the cups. Freaking fantastic. Didn't even know there was a ds mario kart. My favorite tracks from n64 and gba are in.

Online is mad fun. Love battling.

PapaGeorgio 04-27-2008 11:26 PM

Just the Mario Kart code. Also U-Warrior what your code?

PapaGeorgio 04-28-2008 12:34 AM

Playin Drakul now don't think he knows though

U-Warrior 04-28-2008 12:47 AM

dunno I'll post it tomorrow. Does this game have its own code?

Funky Fly 04-28-2008 12:53 AM

Yeah, Nintendo are fucktards. Your Wii has a code and each game has its own code.

Fuck can't wait till my brother can rent this shit... FO FREE

U-Warrior 04-28-2008 12:55 AM

God, nintendo is so stupid when it comes to online. Why wouldn't they make games dlc compatible. That seems so very silly,

When the name "Big Waz" appeared at the start of a race, I said the same to my brother. I knew it was you.

PapaGeorgio 04-28-2008 01:01 AM

Yeah, thought it would do something special since we were friends. Was disapointed there was nothing different really. Didn't even recognize that we were friends really or make note of it in game.

But yeah was able to play one, then I got error code for first time. We were pretty even, knocking each other around. Helped you out at the end blue shelling person ahead of you I think. Put a solid 10 hours into the game in first day, done for the day.

Drakul 04-28-2008 01:13 AM

At the end of the race after you left it came up saying "Friend list :)" or something and it glowed orange. I clicked it and it said you where in a Worldwide Battle. Tried to join in but it wouldn't let me.

BTW does your Mii resemble you at all?

PapaGeorgio 04-28-2008 01:23 AM

My mii does resemble me to an extent. My mii looks older than I am. But I usually sport a beard, shaved head (not to skin but like buzzed all around), plus glasses.

Drakul 04-28-2008 01:25 AM

Oh, thought so. My Mii reembles me enough for people to get the idea how I look.

PapaGeorgio 04-28-2008 01:37 AM

overall though online people suck, hardly ever have a huge challenge. Currently at like 6300 rating I think for vs and for battle like 5700. Overall more fun than playing the computer. Currently just finished 50cc, starting 100cc. Not huge on the bikes. Do like the WiiMote/Nunchuck combo best though. Controls are easier plus you can do moves during jumps and wheelies with bikes. Plus playing with GameCube controller is weird as they changed buttons around from DoubleDash. Overall very good game for the Wii, got to get some friends over soon to play with me.

Drakul 04-28-2008 05:17 AM

Well, I'm undefeated by anyone on my friend list so if you fancy a challenge, keep an eye out for me and we can race 1-on-1

G 04-28-2008 08:09 AM

How do you race one on one?

Dave Youell 04-28-2008 09:45 AM

When you see your friends online, just go to create a room and I think that sends an invite to them

G 04-28-2008 05:31 PM

Yeah so this you add me, i'll add you is bullshit. should just let 1 person add, other accepts. I've added the other 2 in here with codes, but no one has done the same. :rant:



Played with you yesterday papa georgio, but it was battle races, and I wanted to do race races. You had 1 point, I had 6. :cool:

PapaGeorgio 04-28-2008 06:21 PM

See that is gay, I didn't even realize I was playing you yesterday. And same with Drakul today. He randomly joined and I barely noticed. Then we did a Mirror Cup. Was close, but I ended up fucking up. Should have been 2 wins to 2 wins, but he ended up getting 3. Last one I beat him just at the finish line, was intense.

But yeah, that is stupid how it doesn't like pop up a message saying a friend joined.

Also G, you must have only played one battle with me as I whop ass in Battle, especially coin.

Finally, Online VS still needs more talent. Up to like 6700 ranking now, don't get first all the time but usually do some damage on the people. But I'm lucky to be racing against one other person above 6000.

Drakul 04-29-2008 01:36 AM

Sorry I got disconnected halfway through DS Dry Dry Desert. Someone in my house decided to turn off the wireless connection for a while.

There was one thing that happened on our final race on the SNES Mario Circuit 3. My game showed me just make the finish before you yet ranked me as finishing 2nd. I've had it happen in Worldwide races when I came in 5th but got ranked as 6th etc. Dunno why. Probably when people cross the line almost simultaneously the game gets confused, maybe? Anyway, it was fun, we need more TPWWers though. 12 man, all TPWW Grand Prix.

Vietnamese Crippler 04-29-2008 02:12 AM

I'm starting to want to buy this game. Just give me a couple weeks :o

PapaGeorgio 04-29-2008 10:22 AM

Yeah I have had close finishes lie before. Either I get ranked higher or lower then I'm supposed to. Sometimes it is really bad and wasn't even all that close, but I survive.

Vietnamese Crippler 04-29-2008 01:40 PM

The reason that happens is because of the prediction system they use, like in Mario Kart DS, if you didn't know.

G 04-29-2008 01:51 PM

For some reason, everytime I play online I want to watch Harry Potter. :wtf:

Dave Youell 04-30-2008 11:25 AM

There's a guy called Chuck Norris who has 10000 points! Be aware

I haven't been online with it for over a week, I'll try to add everyone to mine tonight, I have the highly original name of Dave

G 04-30-2008 11:45 AM

I thought the max was 9999? The highest I've seen was 6000 I think.

G 04-30-2008 11:46 AM

Also, how do you see how many wins you have?

Drakul 04-30-2008 12:55 PM

On the main menu where it says "Single player" "Multiplayer" etc, there's a shot of your Miis head in the upper right corner. Select that, then "Records".

The highest score I've seen online is about 7500.
