Do I really need to go through 50cc to unlock stuff? XD!

I dont really get the joke.
XD after a normal question?

60 fps does the body goooooooooood

 

[Dacvak]

There are some community games scheduled on reddit at noon, 2:00pm, and 5:00pm EST today if anyone here is interested. Details here!

 

[SpiderJerusalem]

This is pretty fun. I've never even tried the wii one online but maybe now I will.

 

[JacksUsername]

Nothing more infuriating than being in first, getting hit by something, dropping a place, and then getting hit by a blue shell that was inbound and then dropping to last. Mario Kart, oh how I love and loathe thee.

 

[BGBW]

So I unlocked the

gold wheels

for getting 1 star in every cup. Went back and got two stars in every cups and got nothing. Is there anything for three stars?

 

[Delio]

I swear it's like the AI has heat seeking green shells.

 

[BY2K]

Got my copy! Let's do this!

That happened to me the first time I played Random Online. Such BS, I think I'll stick to playing in communities. Screw random online.

 

[MasterShotgun]

Could someone tell me what the timing for the boost off the start line is? I've gone through two cups and I still haven't gotten it once.

When the 2 is fading.

And hit by a communication error again. I have such bad luck when it comes to playing with the GAF community.

It's just before the '2' disappears.

When the 2 starts fading hold down the A button, voila.

EDIT: Beaten.

What is the GAF community code?

It's in the OP quote the post and scroll down to see the code.

Already flopping?

 

[Relix]

Only played 3 cups....

Best Mario Kart ever. So. Fun. Even Grand Prix is fun with a smarter, more challenging and fairer AI. Had a blast. Gonna join the GAF Community and get a few games online!

 

[Kai Dracon]

I don't care about the form of snaking in this game so far as it sounds situational and more balanced due to alternate routes, but I hope to god the capacity for patching is indeed in this game. I don't want to see glitched courses be the only thing used online.

Out of curiosity, did Nintendo ever do any leaderboard resets or such for Mario Kart Wii, due to various impossible times set by hacks?

Don't look at the numbers, look at Lakitu. Between 2 and 1 he will raise his arm, when it's raised hold down accelerate.

 

[Relix]

this communities thing is awesome

 

[BY2K]

I suck.

 

[Boney]

I'm just so amazed people in 1 day can figure out glitched short cuts and snaking while nintendo playtesting never did.

This advice helped the most. Thank you (and everyone else who responded.)

 

[Relix]

Online is so smooth :O!

 

[slaughterking]

Totally got you, Mikael, whoever you are!

 

[BGBW]

I should change me Mii to my Forever Alone Mii since I always seem to be alone in the communities room.

 

[Delio]

You hush your mouth!

Well, the thing is that you can't join groups as a spectator (unlike "Worldwide" races) which makes the timing for finding a group that is currently waiting for the next cup a bit tricky and you just end up creating a new group.

 

[SecretMoblin]

Just got the game, here we gooooooo

Need more people in the community!

I suck.

I feel your pain

 

[Javier]

The new Rainbow Road is a serious contender for best track ever in the series. PURE MAGIC.

 

[EloquentM]

Can someone give me a leader board update on the main GAF community?

 

[Relix]

GGs to the guys I just played with XD!

I am amazed... this IS good

 

[Seven Force]

Whoa, didn't know the

Spoiler

pipe frame style karts from the first three MK games

were unlockable. That's pretty damn awesome.

 

[The_Darkest_Red]

Can anyone help me with my online issues? I can connect to the internet fine and I've never had a problem in the shop or anything like that, but the game never finds any players when it's searching and it gives me an error after awhile. I can't remember the code but I looked it up and it said something about not being able to find an access point. It just doesn't make sense because the 3DS is still online...

Do I need to open some ports on my router or something?

 

[JLG-]

Still have to wait an hour and 30 minutes until my gamestop opens. fml

 

[JacksUsername]

Argh, sorry I had to bail on that last match while it was just getting started - my 3DS started blinking everywhere, so my battery was about to die. Had fun with the matches I was able to play.

 

[Apenheul]

It was my first online game, it works really well. I wonder why some people dropped out of the race halfway.

Spoiler

I'm Niels btw

. Hope to see you soon again.

Maybe try changing the router's channel as well? Not to sure about the port triggering or forwarding for the 3DS.

Yeah mine too. I beleive the people dropping out is because the netcode works by predicting character movement. That happened in the DS version as well. I did fall twice off the track too XD!

Will hop on later... gotta play 3DLand and Skyrim too. Just came back home with a bag full of games haha

 

[Volodja]

This game can brew a totally personal flavor of frustrating bullshit when you lead by a landslide and a blue shell hits you and on the last bounce you fall in a pit and as soon as you get up a red shell bites you. From first to last without being able to do a thing.

 

[Javier]

There's an open group in the main GAF community. Join in, guys!

 

[slaughterking]

Yeah, todays US release should make that happen. And it would be wise if we only had one active GAF community. A community for only Australians and with just bob-ombs is a little silly tbh.

 

[udivision]

Expecting Nintendo to do something about the shortcuts/glitches is unrealistic right?
I guess communities can essentially ban stages though, so you won't run into Grumble Volcano spammers like MKWii.

 

[MatthewB92]

gg's

Playing more of the single player now.

 

[MasterShotgun]

DAT RAINBOW ROAD!

Yeah I already saw videos of it, but getting to play it was even better.

Onward to the Retro Cups!

People would if someone would share the freaking codes!

lol you ignored my warning and unwrapped it already, didn't you?

 

[Thoraxes]

Man I suck. I didn't play any of the SP yet, so i'm still 100% unantiquated with using the circle-pad for my drifts.
