Default 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!

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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!

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