To drag this into ultimate geeky nonsense.
Has anyone else got this? It's great craic and the online is brilliant fun.
My friend code is 0860-3433-0447
Or is the Wii not metal enough for our community?
Where did the poll option come from? This forum could get messy. |

I was over in my mates house over the weekend and we were playing this for hours. There was 5 or 6 of us and i was constantly beating them for hours on end!! The last time i played Mario Kart was about 3 years ago in my old gaff in Dublin where my stoned off there faces housemates constantly beat the crap out of me.  |

Got this on Friday, absolutely phenomenal. Haven't got the tracks down enough to consider seriously playing online but I'll dip in and out.
Wheel, GC Controller or Wiimote/nunchuk? |

Wheel FTW! It just works so well in my opinion.
You don't need the tracks down don't worry it's just great just jump online. I played it for like seven hours on Sunday.

Yea, I'm on the wheel myself. Played through it on 50cc single player and had to fork the copy over to my brother; was expecting bastarding Royal Mail to have my pre-ordered copy here today but no such luck. Had a wee go online on friday and saturday and the online play's perfect; the main annoyance is that when you start on 5000 rank points you end up with dicks who insist on repeatedly voting for Luigi Circuit.
The choice of classic tracks was pretty good, they got a lot of my favourites (SNES Mario Circuit, N64 Mario Raceway, Gamecube Peach Beach & Waluigi Stadium) but also my two all time pet hates (SNES Ghost Valley & N64 Bowsers Castle). Nice to get a go on some of the GBA/DS tracks as well, seeing as how I can't be fucked with handhelds.
Virtual Boy? Are you fucking serious? |

I just choose random when online and finding that is more and more other people do that now but Yoshi Falls DS seems to be a popular choice too. I may pop on later before I head out to Presidents of the USA.

Yes, I am a bit of a Nintendo fanboy  bought a Gameboy Color recently so I could play the Legend of Zelda games, Oracle of Ages, Oracle of Seasons and Links Awakening DX

What router are you using? Some are fiddly with the Wii.
This could be the best answer if the router and Wii are close by:

Yup, Nintendo love their Adult games are just waiting for a third party to work on one and they have no company wide policy to not allow AO or 18+ on their machine .... |

Been playing this from Friday and it is cracking. The wheel works brilliantly, which is bizarre since it is just a piece of plastic for the mote to sit in. But what a crafted piece of plastic.
The online is supurb, spending too many hours on it at the minute though lol |
