man it's such a tragedy that bowser's castle and that airship level aren't playable online. :( I just can't get over it.

Possibly, the question being "reconfigure it to what"?

I mean, it works -- but every 3 races or so it tends to stop.

NWFC is getting laggier and I am also seeing the disconnect problem.

just wondering, based on how mario kart is performing online now how do you guys think a game like Smash Bros. would play on the Rev for example? A game like Smash Bros. online would need the least latency possible, so how do you think it'd perform based on your time spent with Mario Kart DS?

Oh, and having never played the N64 version (played SNES->GBA->GC, though didn't play the GC one for more than a day or two) what the hell is up with the super-wide tracks? It's retarded and just really really bad track design :\

I've played every Mario Kart game up to DS and the only reason I can think of for the extra-wide tracks is the inclusion of the power slide system. I would imagine that the tracks are widened to accomodate the power slide system. Just my guess. It could just be bad track design though.

Dammit, this is what happens when you jump online before playing single player and didn't play DD. I'm playing half these courses for the first time. :lol

Btw, Toad's default kart sucks ass. I was unable to catch up to Shinoobi in all 4 matches!

Well I just got home, and loaded up MKds for the first time. It took me about a minute to set up, (a little longer for Nintendo's return email) and I was rolling. I raced a random race against a Japanse guy, a guy named curry and someone else I forget. It was insanely fun. I didn't read the book yet, so I was flying blind. I came in 3rd overall.


FYI I have the Netgear WGR614v5 and I had no problems at all. I also happened to be using my laptop at the same time. I also have a 3 pc network with zonealarm firewalls on each unit. No problems at all, other than downgrading to WEP from WPA.

Now I have to do up an Avatar and friendcodes. Woot!
