I'm going to get used to her but the tournament is clearly not the place to do it :lolPrancer roller isn't pink gold peach's best choice you know
Circuit special, sports coup, mach 8, and gold with buttons/rollers will give 4.25 speed with the same 3 accel.
Now to see how long it takes for spots to open in that room, Prinny and I are trying to force our way in

4. If you get a lightning and 3 people are invincible, use your lightning immediately. Do not wait for them to become vulnerable and then zap them after they pass the next item line. That's such a dumb thing to do.
5. Hold onto your triple red shells when you are in 5th and then take the slowest racing lines possible. That'll show 6th place for sure.
6. If you're in 2nd or 3rd with an item that lets you dodge blue shells, someone who brakes for blues is in 1st, and you see somebody has a blue, blow your dodge and then brake immediately so the person with the blue shell becomes 1st with ease because everyone in front of them brakes. This is an awesome situation to be in.
7. Don't get coins. Becoming faster sucks.
8. Don't do techniques that make you go faster because they go against an illogical set of "morals" that nobody cares about.
9. Don't learn shortcuts. Those are for noobs.
10. Play on an HDTV with lots of display lag. This makes the game very easy to play.

Your mii is also an option too with 4.75 speed and 3 accel. I wish you two luck lol.

You got sniped by that. I saw it. From down fucking town.

Number 4 and 6 don't work nearly as well here as they did in 7 due to the gamepad lol. I will admit Braking has saved me from blue shells tho <3

If you are tired of finishing last against NeoGAF OT try Worldwide Online for one race and see yourself dominate
so boring but makes you feel better after a few races
I was thinking I really sucked

That isn't nice Azuran, I was supposed to be second.
Well it's been laggy as shit for me the past few hours as it always seems to be in the evenings but I assumed it was just the NTSC players as always. Just now I held a red shell to me and had people bouncing off me without taking the hit, or even my item reels felt damn slow without being fully bugged.

I'm coming on for a few races...be gentle GAF (last place here I come...lol)
I though you did get second. I was surprised as hell.
That was my doing. If that lightning hit me a second later, I would have won.

My planned set-up:
I'll be playing on like a 21" screen at a desk so that should be functional. We'll see.
EDIT: Though I might be able to "center" the GamePad better.

Yea if they don't have anything use it otherwise you're just wasting your items taking out their defense leaving yourself open for attack. That's why you wait until they use the items or you are about to get another one so you can take out their defense and then you might have another chance to attack. I'm just saying be smarter with item usage instead of wasting it on the back of the pack or the person that has just been hit 5 times in a row already. I still don't follow my own advice all the time. I'll get pissed off at somebody and try to get revenge and that always messes me up more lol

I paid good money for this Dynex!
Now that I've had a bit of time to put into the game... yeah, I love it. And I'm surprised, because I really haven't been a MK megafan. Something about the track designs and the technique involved in driving just feels so, so perfect this time around. Nintendo's really kicking ass on the WiiU these days.

Saw this on Tumblr, dunno if it's been posted here:
You can see Koopa Beach (from the N64 game) in the background of Sunshine Airport. Neat!

Lol happens to me all the time while I get to watch everybody in front of me get bullet bills, lightning, etc. I think they made this game so frustrating for the sole purpose of you breaking your controllers and other gaming related accessories so you would have to buy more lol
