Wii #0635 - Mario Kart (Europe)

[Alerek]

I still can't jump/hop/whatever.


Do you hit two buttons at once?

..wait, do you powerslide instead?!

So, how is the controls for the game? Better than Excite Truck?

 

[geodeath]

well this game is just amazing!
I just finished playing through 2 cups and it is superb!
Graphics are a lot better than mk:dd, you can tell if you have a bigger tv.
More detail, more polished, it just rocks. It wont make you think you are playing 360 or a ps3 of course
but compared to other wii games (zak & wiki comes to mind) it very clean & with almost no alias at all.

Controls are more accurate than excite truck (not that excite truck was bad) but as a veteran of mk:dd
i settled for remote+nunchuck gameplay.

in the next days i will be playing online too (i ll buy it of course, 50Eu is just too small of a sum to pay for what i am getting)
so... we ll see each other online!

for the record: pal wii, dont remember when i last updated, it didnt ask for an update, everything works fine!

It's been a while, so I am not up to the lingo like I used to be...just quickly (maybe we can sticky this)...I have an NTSC-U Wii. What do I need to do after I get the .iso in order to run this game without negative effects on my Wii? Am I risking anything after running the patched DVD? Also, what will I be missing once the .iso is patched for the NTSC-U Wii? Thanks!

Does Wiikey 1.9g 3.2U work with Mario Kart?

 

[becker2384]

you luck cock suckers I hope you all burn in HELL! But seriously George bush is gonna help me buy a Wii when I get back the other half of my income taxes!

 

[coolbho3000]

does trucha signed stuff still work after installing this games update?

Yes. But it will still result in dual channels/semibrick. Just don't run the update at all.

Cool. I'll just wait for the NTSC release.

Or you could use Brickblocker.

manual not auto

 

[Dylaan]

Can anyone give me an MD5 for the ISO? I don't have a blank DVD, although I suspect a fake, file size is correct. Thanks!

Works perfectly on Cyclowiz 3.6b after being patched by WIU. No duplicate channels, Wii is latest version NTSC 3.2U.
Nevermind, I found out the channel doesn't even work on a NTSC Wii, oh well. I'll just wait for the U.S. release for that channel, for now I'll enjoy everything else in MKwii

Might as well add another report:

US Console at 3.2U (latest), Wiikey at 1.9s with Update Blocking on. Unmodified Mario Kart Wii ISO.

Results: Update Requested and Performed. Dual Channels with PAL but as far as I can tell there is no "semi-brick".

And I'd also like to say that Nintendo FINALLY got online right!

 

[MADKATZ99]

Scrubbed it only comes to 2968mb? Sounds like a rush job to me.

 

[Auyx]

Is anyone else haveing issues installing the mk channel. I can play everything else but just get a black screen when trying to installe the channel.

Im using a UK pal wii with D2Ckey. The ISO was scrubbed but thats it no brickblock or anything like that.

 

[din75]

Is there any advantage in installing the mario kart channel apart from you not having to put the disk in to check the scorecard, etc, and do you get the same options to see everything on the channel when u do have the disk in but you don't install the channel?

Also can it be deleted once it has been installed?

 

[MC DUI]

Scrubbed it only comes to 2968mb? Sounds like a rush job to me.

It does sound a bit rushed doesn't it? I too was expecting a file size of around 4GB minimum.

Oh well I haven't played it yet so I will reserve my judgement, most people here seem to be enjoying it so far.

 

[BoomtownBilly]

Speaking as a complete Wii verger, Why do ppl want the mario kart channel? what's it do?

 

[spectral]

Why do people assume if a game doesn't have a massive file size its rushed/bad? It has very little to do with how good or bad the game will be or even how long it is.

 

[blindr]

agreed with spectral

 

[MSW0]

Yep, working fine. Brick Blocker not necessary, the update doesn't hurt anything for me. I had 3.2U (WiiWare, not Trucha) update on it beforehand. The channel cannot be used, error message. Online works. Everything works but the channel.
