I have never used anything other than the sports bikes and have a perfect online win record after a million matches. I am a millionaire and women regularly queue up outside my house to kiss me.

Get high and think of me.


Is the Excitebike Track's dynamic layout not working at the moment? I've raced on it multiple times both online and offline and the track was exactly the same every time. :(

I heard it's always static in time trial mode, but changes in other modes. Haven't had a chance to try it myself yet though.

Also inside drift bikes own and I regularly win with them. Dunno what you nerds are doing but its clearly wrong.

Is the list of names in the op still active? I want to play, want to populate my friends list, but don't want to waste time adding a bunch of people who are no longer playing.

There's also the Goonvitational Karts thread, if that's helpful (might be a better place to exchange NNIDs).

I at least can blame my Smash failure at the 3DS being incapable of handling precise inputs. I have no excuse for Mario Kart :(

I also won't have an excuse for Smash come next week but whatever.

Speaking of horns, what is Link's from? Obviously a Zelda game but trying to figure out what it is is bugging the hell out of me.

Mute City in no way feels like F-Zero but it's still an awesome track.

That's how you play F-Zero, sir. If 30/30 cross the finish line you're doing something wrong.

Aha yes, baby park Come to think, MK8 doesn't have any tracks with more/less than 3 laps.

Those still have 3 parts, though. The lap counter always has 3 sections, I meant to say.

I don't know why they didn't do more with that from MK7. Were they really not popular?

I guess the two Wii Sports levels weren't great, but on the other hand Rainbow Road 7 is the best Mario Kart level of all time and Mount Wario is really super good too so I dunno. I kinda wish there were more one-lap courses in MK8.

Or at the very least, I wish the Triforce Cup had Rainbow Road 7 instead of SNES Rainbow Road.

I was presented with a choice of Bowser's Castle, Mt. Wario, and Mute City. Why couldn't I just vote for all three in succession?

Looks like tournaments are still screwing up even after all these months and updates...figures. Definitely not an empty room and I got jipped out of a 1st place win on Goldmine judging by the standings.

It seems to be the same basic track sections in different orders, so at least its faithful to NES Excitebike.

You'll hear it here first, world renowned unluckiest Mario Kart player Endgame right here. Single mushrooms in last place while everyone else gets stars and bullet bills. Get 1st place for most of the race? Hope you like 10 red shells down your rear end in a top hat.
