The expert ghosts? Cause damn.

Baww no. I'm not that good yet! I did however "unlock" a few of the expert ghosts. So I'll try to beat them eventually.

Here's my code. 2964-8992-3275

Can someone add my code on Wiki? I lost my password and it seems registration is closed.

0645-6227-6107

I added Grawl and myself to the wiki.

Thankfully, I'm starting to get used to this game, I think. I've got most of 100cc double-starred right now, so hopefully 150cc won't be too spirit-crushing. Watching staff ghosts has been inspiring, I guess.

Online is fantastic! Fuck grandprix mode.

Add me so we can have sexy fun together!

I've added every code I could find.

So has anyone unlocked everyone yet?

All I got are the Mii, Rosalina, and Dry Bones.

I can probably do all the unlocking except for anything requiring to unlock a staff ghost.

I'm not used to the courses yet. That said... I'm pretty much done with unlocking (except for anything requiring a staff ghost) :p

I've added everybody who posted the FC so far.

I meet up and play with MrMonkeyMan a few moments ago... Pushing me off course while in the air HOW DARE YOU! :tpg:

I'm just not a nice guy.

I've added myself to the wiki page (man, Saka did my job :tpg:): 4339-2971-0004. Like BRAWL, I've added everyone on the list and will continue to for a month. After that, you get baleted.

I'll be playing locally for a while first, but I must say that I'm lovin' the Wheel. It's all about the wheel.

Just added everyone on the Wiki to my list. Hoping to face some of you sometime. :3:

So now that I've had time to play with different control types, I'm pretty much done with the wheel. The Wii Remote + Nunchuck combo is pretty much perfect as far as control and control scheme goes.

Edit: Ahaha, I don't know whose idea this "trick" system belongs to, but they rock. Not only do I get to race as Yoshi (king of MARIO KART, everyone else is gay), but I get to watch him do a barrel roll and jump over the car while he's doing it. That's pretty damn funny to me. <3 Yoshi.

Just picked this up today, and... Well, I've only done Mushroom Cup on 50cc, but I'm having fun with it so far. My FC this time around is... 0430-8793-6958. Will add the FCs on the Wiki too.

I'm probably going to end up getting this game on the weekend.

Also, do you people tend to use the Wii Wheel more or the Gamecube Controller?

Fuck. My brother and I was enjoying a nice worldwide race with MrMonkeyMan and Tails a few moments ago until NWFC decided to kick us off. Now when I try to connect again it gives an error saying their "servers may be trying to handle an unusually high amount of traffic". -_-;

Yeah, it kicked everyone off. Tails is surprisingly more female and hot than I imagined.

Yeah, I'm secretly Nanoha.

I really need to study up on these tracks. Outside of DK and the Waterway one it was my first time on the tracks. Good stuff.

Like I mentioned in chat though, the poor release time alongside GTA IV means I won't really be on a lot, aside from a few appearances here and there.

Been a while since I played a game that actually made me frustrated. Mario Kart Wii has something special going on for it.

I guess my frustrations could be lessened if I just stopped using the Wheel, but since the game came packaged with it I feel inclined to use the friggin' thing for a while, at least until I beat a couple more GPs. Unfortunately, controlling a bike with the wheel can be pretty nuts, even more if you're constantly doing tricks. The game manuals says you only need to tilt the wheel up to do a trick, but it's more like you have to violently jerk the thing to get it to register, which in turn affects the bike's sensitive steering. Blurgh.

Haven't played online at all, but I'll check it out more when I manage to clear more GPs (or when I snap the wheel in half).

I stuck the Wiimote into the Wheel, and just 'felt' around the controls before even turning the system on... And promptly popped it back out and used the Nunchuk configuration. The Wheel feels decent enough, but I don't really like the idea of turning the Wheel/Wiimote and jerking it around to steer. I didn't enjoy it in Excite Truck, anyway.

I've completed the four 'new' cups on 50cc, and I have to say, I'm really loving some of the new stages. I think the Waterway one is my favourite.

So far, all I've unlocked is a heavy cart, and King Boo. Gotta get more!

I never bothered with the wheel, also because you can't do manual steering with it, which sucks when you want to play the 150cc GPs or online against some decent folk.

I didn't do either of that, but I still use the Wiimote + Nunchuk because it feels like I'm actually in control (I always found the motion detection dodgy to begin with) and I don't want to switch back to a Gamecube controller, because this is on the Wii.

Unlocking Rosaline takes ages for me. I beat Super Mario Galaxy for ages (NTSC version though, but the save should recognised on my PAL console, right? RIGHT? ;___; *) and I did most of the 50CC GPs in either B or two stars (yes, I vary like that).

Online play has been really pleasant for me. I miss chatting (read: dissing, lolling, complaining) or any actual interaction with the other players next to bumping them off the road, but it's nice to stick with pretty much the same team when you start an online match. I do miss an option to do complete GPs in order instead of random tracks. Or creating your own tournaments etc. etc. A level designer would have been a motherfucking awesome addition.

Single-player is kinda dull, really. It's not the skill that's tested, but my patience. This also goes for on-line mode, actually. Thunder, blue shell, POW-block, blue shell... and at that time I'm fucking 7th. Or in that mushroom-cave-track thing getting a thunder stroke above you at the jumping section is just plain frustrating, since you'll fall in. Then again, getting back to the first place is getting a hell easier with those items, mainly with Bullet Bill. What am I saying? It's unbalanced like nothing else before. Add this to the online-mode; I want to fucking customize the weapons. No more Redeemer POW-blocks and thunderstrikes.

* Come to think of it, I could just download a PAL save for Super Mario Galaxy. I don't really care about the savegame anymore anyway.

Yeah, you need your region save data of SMG to unlock Rosaline for MKWii. When I was playing the PAL version it didn't unlock her. When I put in my US copy she was unlocked right from the start.

Oh, I think I need to add a couple of more FC. I couldn't add them because NWFC keep kicking me out throughout today.

If you mean using the R-button to drift with the GC controller, then you can drift with the wheel. I realized last night with the GC controller that you can drift using the brake button also.

I ended up unlocking Funky last night, so I gotta try him. Daisy is next on my list.

Aw yeah, time to be a slowpoke again, but you can install the Mario Kart Channel thing to your Wii Menu to allow you to see who is on without actually loading up the game. At least its a step in the right direction. If I randomly jump into your matches (SUP INFERNAL ='D), that's the reason.

<3 <3

I only just found out about that myself yesterday. :(

I target Funky Kong players for lol, that'll teach him to make a plane out of a barrel. >=(
