It's so stupid that everyone gets booted when the tournament starts. Just make the next race counts reset the scores.

 

[Incitemaybe]

Sorry about that blatant star abuse Greg.......but it seems you got me back even better haha

 

[ffdgh]

I've completed 150cc. Hooray. Now I just have 6 cups left in mirror mode and I'll move on to time trials.

I hope you're ready. The cpu will show no mercy.

 

[DJIzana]

I come to share an amazing gif from SomethingAwful's MK thread:

So good dude... lol. Thanks for that!

I'm sure he's loving it. After all the crap Mario gives him, he deserves to unleash a little havoc!

[pupcoffee]

Where in GPX do you encounter "Hard Mode" CPU? Just in mirror mode?

 

[Caramello]

I hate these communication errors.. Just got 2nd!

 

[PlumCantaloupe]

Wow, such a great capture. Those great little details ...

 

[DedValve]

lol so the blue shell went after me even though I was in 4rth because the other 3 had already finished? damn.

 

[daydream]

I really like Cheep Cheep Beach. Not enough people choose Cheep Cheep Beach.

 

[foxuzamaki]

yup, dem green shells in 150cc are deadly.

I love wario stadium. Same to me

Just confirmed it with Koodo.. After 1030-1050 VR, the system resets the number to 0 so we have to start all over again.

 

[Saint Gregory]

That Bullet Bill up the behind felt as expected :{

 

[Mine01]

I think i got disconnected xc

 

[Kinsei]

I hope you're ready. The cpu will show no mercy.

I know. I've done the mushroom and flower cups so far, and they were not easy. Apparently Mario can keep up with Bowser even though I'm using a high speed build.

 

[Trago]

I swear the AI is trained by the Mushroom Kingdom Green Berets or some shit lol.

 

[foxuzamaki]

man the music is steadily getting better, that mario galaxy remix was outstanding, I could listen to it all day.

 

[Rebel Leader]

yup, dem green shells in 150cc are deadly.

I can hear the green shells say it now:

 

[BassForever]

Waluigi is the secret best Nintendo character

 

[Mine01]

Keep getting on a solo lobby

 

[DedValve]

YYYYESSSSS FIRST PLACE!!!

Spoiler

with only 6 players but still

FIIIIRSSST.

That red shell would have fucked me if I wasn't spamming a and the item box didn't give me a bannanna. How do I save replays?

 

[Zing]

Yeah it's pretty much impossible to come back from last place.

 

[Kouichi]

Just confirmed it with Koodo.. After 1030-1050 VR, the system resets the number to 0 so we have to start all over again.

Ah that explains it. I could have sworn you had a bunch of points.

*shakes my fist*

 

[ffdgh]

I guess all that time trialing really did help.

 

[TriangularDuck]

Anyone else getting a ridiculous amount of communications errors tonight, or has my Wii U decided to not play well with my router all of a sudden?

 

[Hysterical]

Coins are secretly the best items in the game. The reason why it's so difficult to catch up to first place is because of coins. First/second place rarely loses coins and they easily get them back so they are always at top speed. Whereas players in a lower positioning frequently have to fight for coind and lose coins quite often.

If you play mario kart wii 150cc and compare it to mario kart 8 it's very funny how different the two are.

Woah i had no idea the coins even did anything! I thought they were just used to upgrades haha thanks!

 

[RagnarokX]

I encountered a weird glitch at the end of my last race: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OlWnZBVjlb4

Round and round she goes!

 

[Mine01]

I guess there's an option to prevent joining the existing room con the antishuffle tourney
Back to the gaf lobby it is.

stupid random-ass unlock system

 

[Azure J]

Have to admit, as much as I'm not a fan of Waluigi, I actually heard the WAH here and died laughing.

 

[lolez2matt]

Baitoko, that red shell decided all. XD

Not just you. Getting constant errors.

 

[daydream]

Yoshi Valley getting crazy at the end, as always.

 

[Zing]

I haven't had an error yet. Been playing since Friday morning.

stupid random-ass unlock system

the unlock system is random? I got 50 points somehow and unlocked more car parts, how many until I start getting characters?

 

[lt519]

Ugh choked trying to catch you santos pushed it too hard

And again 2nd to 6th

 

[JPBrowncoat]

I am not doing as well as the shuffle tournament...

 

[Hysterical]

Only one disconnect during the Gaf tournament, otherwise things have been perfect

 

[ViewtifulJC]

is it me or do lightning strikes always happen on the third lap near the finish line

 

[spyguy]

Wow the online is so much fun! Even if I can't win first ever.

 

[rawktapus]

Have to admit, as much as I'm not a fan of Waluigi, I actually heard the WAH here and died laughing.

You just took the first step towards truly understanding the greatness of Waluigi.

Finish Prixs.

I don't know if the unlocks are tied per prix or not

 

[jnWake]

Joined my first online races today! GAF room was brutal with some hilarious courses like Royal Raceway and Electrodrome (bump boosts everywhere!).

Uploaded some highlights:

(3DS) DK Jungle - Online with randoms. My first race and first win!

(3DS) Music Park - Randoms again, the boost to win the race was so cool.

Bowser's Castle - Against GAF! My only GAF win so far.

I need to learn the courses better to start winning more but it's been really fun so far (ignoring the disconnects).

Gold Cup GP only is what unlocks characters

 

[FaintDeftone]

Played a lot with the GAF players tonight. I'm rarely ever in anything above 5th place but I still have fun.

Just like any other Mario Kart though, 150cc is absolutely frustrating.

 

[daydream]

I'm usually not the culprit when a lightning strike happens, but this time, it may have been me. Felt good.

is it me or do lightning strikes always happen on the third lap near the finish line

That's totally what happened.

Woah.

 

[kamakazi5]

Didn't even cross the finish line. Embarrassing.

 

[DMeisterJ]

Maybe I'm slow, but can someone explain to me any reason they'd throw a boomerang BACKWARDS in tenth place? idgi
