No way, bro. Mario Kart Wii is a masterpiece.
That's a really good game yup, but it has its flaws, like the horrible controls, some bland retro tracks, and the overbugged races. I'm tired of seeing insane shortcuts in TAS.
That's honestly the most interesting thing about the game though, gameplay wise. The shortcuts done are signs of a dedicated community who want to push a game to its limits, and if stuff like this is possible, then I'm all for it. But take those away, and what's left? The gameplay is far less appealing to me, and it's a game left carried by its admittedly well-aged visuals and good tracks. But I'm someone who prefers the actual meat of a game, not the plate, and I see a dull game with poor balancing and jank everywhere
tbh when you see the 6848595th shortcut you be like : idc. Also yeah the Community is dedicated but most of that is due to CTGP r
Nah, not really, I always enjoy seeing new discoveries on tracks. And yeah I can't exactly deny that the game's only alive because of CTGP, but that furthers my point. What would've happened if it didn't exist? The game wouldn't be as overrated as it is now

Viable characters in MKPC
On 2022-04-09 at 20:44:10
I already know that Daisy is #1, but I was wondering if there are other good characters that are close to her, or if this is just a "Brawl Metaknight" situation where all the rest need some sort of cheese to beat Daisy.
It's sort of a Brawl MK situation.
The other characters in the cast can be split into two different categories:
1. The characters with high enough handling to snake/reverse drift. All these characters are invalidated by Daisy for one reason or another. Peach is outclassed/equal to Daisy in every stat. Birdo is outclassed in every stat barring weight, which is probably the least relevant stat especially when bumps do so much anyways. And Toad/Toadette are outclassed in every stat by Peach, which clearly doesn't help their case.
2. The characters who do not have the necessary handling to perform either of these techniques (without glitches but that's extremely unsustainable anyway), and thus are immediately invalidated.
Is it possible to beat Daisy with other characters? For sure, if the player in question has very unrefined lines with snaking and you get good item luck then it's possible. But if not, no character stands a chance.
Okay, thx. Kinda wish more were usable though.
I somewhat agree. I like a defined meta, but the problem to me is that some characters provide no advantage to others, no matter what, such as Toad and Peach compared to Daisy. It probably wasn't intentional but I still think it's an issue

I am autistic. Ask me anything about it.
On 2022-03-16 at 23:02:29
I am maybe autistic but idk... The person who did something to know if I was or not said "No" but she wasn't very... I don't know. So as a maybe-autistic guy, I was wondering about one thing that could change my life :
How other people see you ? I mean, what they think of you ? Did they harass you because of that ?
How other people see you ? I mean, what they think of you ? Did they harass you because of that ?
While waiting for their response I'll give you mine:
I've had differing opinions about it from others over the years. When I was first diagnosed a lot of my classmates didn't really mind, and they really wanted to know more about it. Considering I was still trying to figure myself out at the time and what this said about me I couldn't answer but still.
Moving up into secondary school is a different story though. I was bullied and harassed for it, or rather the results of it. Social awkwardness and my lack of emotional intelligence being the main ones, but they also took advantage of the academic intelligence that came from it. In trying to find friends I single-handedly carried half of my year group in maths, while it heavily wore me down I didn't really care.
Thankfully that's changed, and I'm glad that some people I know have had changes of heart over how they feel about the condition, and some of the stereotypes such as us being dumb, because of their experiences with me.
Disaster has struck.

Today has been a rollercoaster. As you all know, Mirror Mode was added to the game. This isn't what this is about. A couple hours ago, all channels in relation to Nathaniel Bandy, a popular Nintendo-related YouTuber, that if you're on here probably know about already, were hacked by bitcoin scammers. Minus World is affected. Nathaniel Bamdy is affected, with the only available old video being Reacting to Paper Mario: The Origami King. To quote Pixelcraftian's comment on this:
Bathaniel Nandy has entirely been terminated, in fact.
Bitcoin is badcoin.
Nathaniel Bandy is getting hacked, I repeat, Nathaniel Bandy is getting hacked.
Reminder, Do NOT click on any links that are suspicious that come from his channel, Bathaniel was also affected, so stay away from that for the time being. Let's hope he gets his channel back.

Bandy has got in contact with YT to fix the issue, so there is hope.

1The discovery of the NSMT technique (New Single-MT Technique)
On 2022-03-26 at 22:54:25
Hi guys, and I have officially discovered a new technique and it is time I get to explain it to you guys:
It stands for a player while also snaking, to charge always MTs instead of SMTs.
This is the technique that gives the illusion to charge a MT and snake at an incredibly fast pace without reverse drifting, which is also almost identical to the fast MTs we see in MKDS WR videos.
This technique also will cause heavy characters to be more playable, as a result, similarly to reverse drifting, producing times that are nearly identical or even faster compared to only using Daisy’s stats.
While the technique along with snaking is already difficult on itself, unlike reverse drifting that you need to let go of the accelerator most of the time and drift backwards with often inverted controls, this gets you to only charge fast MTs instead of SMTs.
And the way to actually do it, if you guys don’t got that is essential for snaking and charge only MTs.
And I hope any of you like the discovery!

Um...I don't understand. Also the reverse drifting SMT strat is actually faster as SMTs have slightly higher speed than MTs for a bit
How the MK8DX DLC TRIGGERS ME !!!
On 2022-03-09 at 12:57:14
What triggers me is the fact we waited for 5 years, and what do we get? Ports of a mobile game. They said they were "remastered courses from the original games", yet all they did was port mario kart tour.
That's not the worst part. The worst part is that currently, out of the 8 tracks we know are coming, Only one is one that hasn't got a retro/appeared in Tour - Shroom Ridge. All the others do not actually deserve to be made as a retro, especially with the downgrade some have received visually.
On 2022-02-11 at 23:56:48
It doesn't trigger me at all, TBH. Sometimes, I get excited for new DLC, BUT THIS IS A WHOLE OTHER LEVEL! I mean, like, THEY DIDN'T FORGET SUPER CIRCUIT!
They never forgot Super Circuit? MK8 was the only game that they didn't make a retro track from Super Circuit.
They remade Mario Circuit in the base game, and added Cheese Land and Ribbon Road as DLC.
Ok so that just makes my point stronger, Nintendo doesn't forget that SC exists

La trop grande difficulté du mode Grand Prix (pour moi en tout cas)
On 2022-03-14 at 23:40:36
Moi j'ai un peu mal mais à force de persévérance (parfois des mois) on finit par y arriver. Les IA ne sont pas si fort que ça, notamment dans l'utilisation de cadeaux et des raccourcis. Mais c'est vrai que c'est rageant,ils tombent jamais !
Mais par exemple, ils ne dérapent pas, et ça, c'est un gros aventage pour nous quand on sait déraper en ligne droite.

Le problème en lui-même : ils ne tombent pas, bien sûr, l'ordi ne va pas programmer des CPUs pour qu'ils se suicident... Mais je suis d'accord, ils sont difficiles à battre, mais surtout, ils ont tendance à faire facilement ce qu'un humain fait difficilement : les CPUs prenant Flora ou DK prennent les virages avec une aisance déconcertante... Lorsqu'ils prennent un perso léger, ils réussissent à me pousser dans le vide... Et pour finir, ils roulent sur du sol mobile comme sur du sol normal...
...
T'AS TOUT COMPRIS !
Mon gros problème vient du fait que les IA sont ultra rapides même quand je prends des perso avec des bonnes stats...
Mon autre problème vient effectivement du fait que TOUTES les IA peuvent te pousser comme si elles étaient toutes des Bowser...
En plus Tiger21 tu mentionnes le fait de déraper en ligne droite, mais je ne maitrise pas encore cette technique correctement...
I am more than willing to assist you with this, despite the language barrier. If you think that will make things more difficult then I'm certain the player currently using the name SAH_Nina is happy to help you

Hello, I understand that this is a French topic, but I want to say a few words on the matter. The Grand Prix CPUs are on hard mode by default, but they can be beaten rather easily with the right tactics. They're designed to get you to learn how to play the game properly, and I think they do a good job. You either learn good item play, or are encouraged to learn faster driving techniques. Take the time to practise either of these and they should become rather simple.

3:01 Character: Daisy
WHAT ??? HOW YOU DID A TIME LIKE THIS ??????????????
He's actually pretty good at the game lol. I mean I can only get like 2:51 with a perfect run sooo
On 2022-03-11 at 10:44:31
I know, old topic but I figured I'd revive this: Thanks to reverse drifting I have a 2:59.03. Late timer stop so 2:58. Certainly can go lower as I was on a low 2:5x pace today.
On 2021-03-05 at 13:46:13
personnaly i wouldn't count the non played time
but there is a lot of RNG so ill try the BEST speedrun and post it here

Every other game includes load times, so why shouldn't we?

On 2021-03-05 at 10:43:02
Which rule
On VS?
Grand Prix?
TTs?
I want to do it, but idk which mode I do it on.

I feel like Grand Prix would be the fastest mode to do it on, low load times.
DDE (Daisy Drift Exploit)
On 2022-01-02 at 03:31:56
This entire thread is obselete now lol
On 2021-11-01 at 12:19:12
DDE is waayyyy too easy
Seriously, on some courses with wider roads it is the easiest way to almost get a WR.

It's easy to learn, yes, but there's no way you can get "almost WR" with it easily. Even some top players aren't anywhere close to WR on some tracks, how can someone who just learnt how to snake get one?
On 2021-10-15 at 23:37:45
The way to do DDE. It's hard.
So just drift left, next right, and reapeat it until the end of the course. It's pretty hard to do, I can't do DDE for now. I can drift, a lot of times, but DDE, I saw what that's really, and...
GOOD LUCK !!

No its really easy, in 1 or 2 hours of practice I succeeded it easily (in my beginnings)
yeah it's easy for you because do DDe is easy actually but compare me to all the players... = it's like compare HACK and NOOB tier
1. I don't understand why it's called DDE (Daisy Drift Exploit) when you can do it with other characters like Birdo, Toad, Toadette and basically any characters with good handling.
2. Fways is right. It's very easy to snake in this game, probably the easiest game to snake of all time. All you have to do is just drift left and then drift right, rinse and repeat. Don't believe me? Then try MKDS. It's simple to learn but hard to master there so there you have it. My statement about the snaking situation.
I agree with all of this.
I do not need to repeat myself: Just because Daisy is the only character you see snaking does not mean she's the only character that can snake, do not name the technique after her. MKDD doesn't rely on Barrel Train Drift Exploit, nor does MKDS with Egg 1 Drift Exploit. Get it right.
Second, yes this game is extremely easy compared to the other snaking games. No extra tech to learn, no manual MTs, anyone can pick it up.
