Mario Kart Wii and other Mario Kart games
 

Surprised I haven't seen one of these. Any MKWii players out there? Also, post your thoughts on the upcoming Mario Kart 8 game for the Wii U, due in April 2014.

I'm currently TT'ing Toad's Factory, which is a lot of fun because there are so many different shroom strats. Just watch some of the past few world records to get an idea.

Lastly, I plan to host a tournament for MKW later this month, so keep your eyes peeled out for that!

I love Mario Kart, especially Wii and 7.
And can't w8 for 8.

Re: Mario Kart Wii and other Mario Kart games
 

My favorites are probably Mario Kart 64, and Double Dash!! I haven't played Wii or 7 in a while, but I'm excited for 8 also.

Jesus, i beat all of the expert staff ghosts or whatever back in the day and thought I was like baddest of the bad but this just takes it to another level ahaha

Mario Kart DS is so technical and rewarding. Fat DS only.

Re: Mario Kart Wii and other Mario Kart games
 

can't wait for 8! (woah, that rhymes!)

My family loves Mario Kart, and my brothers and I still play MKWii :)

favourite maps?

Re: Mario Kart Wii and other Mario Kart games
 

I beat all the expert staff ghosts on the wii and got over 9,200 on online rating, that's about as far as I went with the game. It was close enough to completing it for me.

Re: Mario Kart Wii and other Mario Kart games
 

I can't pin mine down, so I'll list all of them: Toad's Factory, DS Delfino Square, Moonview Highway, DK Summit/DK's Snowboard Cross, DS Yoshi Falls, SNES Mario Circuit 3, and others.

This looks fun:
It's from the viewpoint of Remedy (remedy1502), who's also a member here on FFR.

I used to play MkWii competitively for 1-2 years. I played for my Wii clan [WEC] in the World Clan League, and we eventually lucked our way through to the 2nd and 1st Division (top tiers).

Here's three videos of a Clanwar from 2 years ago when I used to play (I'm [WEC]Izzy)

GP1:
GP2:
GP3:

ps. the guy who was driving in/recording those videos used to be like one of the best players out there and is definately one of my idols

Remembering those times gives me kind of a nostalgic feeling.. There's also more really good MKW players on FFR, but I'm not gonna tell who hehu

I play 64 on my Emulator now and again. 150cc isn't a challenge at all. MKDD was still easy, but everyone would do EVERYTHING to be a complete dick to you.

Re: Mario Kart Wii and other Mario Kart games
 

I play a little bit. I played a lot of Mario Kart and Mario Kart 64, but not nearly as much of the others. I don't like the recycled levels and would rather have all new ones. And they just don't seem as fun as the old ones for some reason.

Re: Mario Kart Wii and other Mario Kart games
 

So FFR's first MKW tournament has concluded. Thanks to wes3 and arcnmx who participated. Many memorable moments were had - I really wish I had a screen capture device...

If anyone's up for some online races, I'd be willing to exchange friend codes! And I'm going to host another tournament around the end of August.

Re: Mario Kart Wii and other Mario Kart games
 

I would have loved to join this if I had internet connection for Wii. If you would ever have a Mario Kart 7 tournament, I would participate!

Re: Mario Kart Wii and other Mario Kart games
 

Sorry, wish I could but I don't own/play MK7. :( Hope you can get your Wii connected somehow!

Re: Mario Kart Wii and other Mario Kart games
 

Ah. Ok. Well when Mario Kart 8 comes out, I'll definitely be in!
