Are you kidding me? Those bomb-mobiles are, like, the coolest addition to the Mario Kart series like evaar like. They make it much more fun! So yeah there Yoshi was, drivin' along "Ho humm~" WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN A BOMB MATERIALISED IN FRONT OF ME/HIM AND WENT KABOOM! (note: true story)

Spoiler:

+ =

And so all of the dinosaurs in the land died.

Cheers to Nintendo for incorporating a subtle albeit extremely retarded history lesson in our gamez.

FELIPE NO

I may be joining the rest of of you Mario Kart-ers, because I've been looking to pick this game soon.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

As for what kart (or bike) I use, it's Yoshi and the standard kart. But I'm "experimenting" with other characters and karts/bikes too like Baby Daisy with the Blue Falcon. >_>

Haha, it does look like that xD.
But yeah, I noticed that 90% of the races we do in Moonview Highway EVERYONE behind me is pretty much guaranteed to hit a car or bomb. You do realize the safest spot in that track is the center white line, right? RIGHT?!
Too bad it can't protect us against banana peels, fake item boxes and various colored shells ._.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Question about getting stars next to your name:
I know to get one, you need to get that star number on every cup, but does that include all modes? Or any mode? Or 150cc? Or...what?

You gotta go the whole 9-yards. That means getting star finishes in 50cc, 100cc, 150cc and mirror mode. That shit is not easy no matter how skilled you might think you are. Since it also depends if you can avoid getting barraged by a ton of blue shells, lightning bolt and anything else that might try to stop you.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

OF COURSE I KNOW!
But people are mean and WILL start bumping into you to go into incoming traffic, especially heavy kart/bike player. @_@

It has to be ALL MODES. ie. If you get one star in everything except for one cup in one of the mode you won't get that star next to your name.

EDIT: Geez I'm one minute too late. You can't win at everything Kairyu! ;p

ADDITIONAL SPAM: Heh, MrMonkeyMan, a couple of people from #PocketMonster and my brother and I had a Friend VS race and Battle. Good thing VR isn't counted or else I'll loose so much. lol
Too bad the disconnection screw up the game twice. I was having so much fun.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I stopped caring about my score thinger, VR, whatever after I got dropped like 7 races in a row and my score went from 7000 to 6300. Now I usually just pick on people with goofy miis if I end up with a bunch of people who aren't very good.

And why is BigCN401 the only person who's ever online? I demand that more of you get on there and play

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

It's Monday and I'm not home :U
I'm usually available to play in the afternoon to evening hours. And so you know, I'm in that crazy ass twilight Hawaiian timezone. Though on Fridays and weekends I tend to be on throughout the day, if I'm not too busy.

FELIPE NO

Had some matches with MrMonkeyMan earlier today, and I was online quite a bit. My VR finally reached over 6000, and I got in first plenty of times in a row. Then again, I recently started using bikes, and those things are so freaking fast.

Question: Precisely what do wheelies do? They seem to make you go faster. They also seem to cause you to only spin once on POW blocks. Is there any reason someone wouldn't use this all of the time except when in very curvey areas?

Lastly, I'm pretty sure there are 4 tricks each person can perform, one for each button on the directional pad. Do these all give the same speed boosts and only differ in looks or what?

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

You're thinking far too much into it. Wheelies only give you speed, but they you leave you open to a much greater speed loss if you're hit by another racer or item. I'm not sure about the Pow block thing though.

Tricks have the same effect no matter what trick it is, they send you higher up in the air than you would normally travel and give you a boost after you hit the ground.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Here are some advantages between the two vehicles.

Go-Karts
+ Overall heavier weight class and therefor better stability.
+ Stronger mini-boost (can use red sparks.)
+ Overall top speed is better.

Bikes
+ Can do Wheelies~ You get extra speed at the expense of next to no steering while doing so.
+ Handling is far better. I also hear using a the Wii Wheel with automatic bikes is especially beneficial/fun.
+ Overall smaller size. Again, less mass also means you can get pushed around a bit more.

Also, about the tricks. There isn't any real difference between the four each character can do. It's not like SSX where each trick provides a certain benefit or landing technique.

And I think either vehicle can do the "one spinout" move versus a POW block. If you time the trick button correctly. Though I never tested it on a Kart yet.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

The "one spinout" thing works with Go-Karts also. Racing 50cc, those computers will actually attempt to stop you, so it does work with it.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

6666 VC and 5770 BR. I love my VC and wish it would never change, maybe to 7777. I also played a few worldwide races, and gosh I hate Mirror Mode despite not even have unlocked it.

I was also in a 2v1 Coin Match earlier, and I was the one solo. I thought I was going to lose for sure, but not only did I win, I got nearly 10x their score. I had about 24 coins or so and they only had about 3 or so in the end. I'm not sure how that happend. A similar situation happend before that, with them gaining 15 and me having 2X. Not bad.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Fuck. I'm getting bad luck in MKWii online today. Not only I get screwed/loosing point just for being 3rd place and under but I keep getting disconnection (which Nintendo will penalized you EVEN WHEN THE DISCONNECTION IS NWFC FAULT!). My VR drop down from 8600ish to 7600ish within a HOUR!

I'm going to remind myself NOT to play on a Tuesday. ;_;

I was speaking idiomatically.

Ouch. I saw the -232 (or so) earlier, but I think you were still above 8000. Want to practice in a buddy room or something?

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

It's better to just completely ignore your points~ They're pointless (apparently they're supposed to match you up with players that have roughly the same amount but this never works) so don't let them frustrate you. You eventually get to the stage where a massive chunk are taken off even if you come forth in a twelve player race.

FELIPE NO

One spinout? Try no spinouts. Although, this is hard as fuck, and I still haven't been able to pull it off. =(

So, I have 100% wheel usage offline and online, and have been playing offline and online for a while now (although I haven't extensively done time trials). However, I still have a white wheel next to my name online, while my friend who hasn't been playing nearly as long as me has a gold wheel. Does anyone know if there's a trick to getting the gold wheel?

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Oh, so it's all about avoiding the ground and jumping at the right time... Gotta try that.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I BLOODY GOT THE GAME TODAY!!!!!! Now I won't feel left out!! I hope the game doesn't put an end to future Brawl sessions though. I'll be online this weekend!!

Oh, and I also got Okami, but that's another story.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Hey, Sacred, did you get to see me drive right through the jump on Mushroom Gorge? Haha, that was pretty lame.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Lol, they were some pretty fun matches. I always found it hilarious how you wait at the finish line while waiting for others to catch up as a taunt, then pass it when they get close.

How ya doing, buddy?

No, Nintendo screwed up/didn't put a Rival mode into Mario Kart Wii like they did in Mario Kart DS for that to happen. In the instruction booklet (YES I READ THEM!) they said that "you can choose to play against others who have the same approximate rating as you." So now that's a lie and the game just matchmake with any open spot(s).

Geez, I think that pull that off TWICE out of 58785378491684786 times online... that because I rarely do manual drifting. lol >_>

Goodie! FRIEND CODE NAO! XD
And don't worry about Brawl. I'll be online on the weekend too.

Oh, make my VR to 7500ish now. ;_;

lol this video is a joke, and the guy obviously completely fluked it. All this shows is it can be done, not that this guy or anyone else can pull it off reguarly.

How ya doing, buddy?

Pretty much, he was damn lucky he'd jumped off a slope at the time.

Freelance: wots ur fiend cooode? =o
I should hopefully be on for a fair chunk of time tomorrow, so see some of you suckers there I guess.
