Wii #0659 - Mario Kart Wii (USA)

[Pikachu025]

Insert the proper region game without any modifications and play it.

 

[Akoji]

Okay, well I just chipped my Wii, So Im kind of insecure when it comes to big nintendo releases.
Thanks!

 

[Pikachu025]

By the way, the topic title should say "Mario Kart Wii (USA)" instead of just "Mario Kart (USA)".

Question: are PAL and NTSC Friend Codes compatible?

 

[superrob]

Can you really use the PAL version and install the NTSC channel?
My console is NTSC but I'd rather play on European servers.

Well...
If you install the NTSC version of the channel you would ONLY get the stats from your NTSC game.

does this fuck up trucha signed games? will I still be able to play my SSBB DVD5 after doing the update on this, has anyone tried?

 

[kallekall]

Theres a few kart name changes, and a track name change in the USA release... Other than that, why wouldnt you want to stick with the PAL release?

I am afraid people will think I am from Europe ;_; I am not a European I am American!!....

Isn't that a good thing?

 

[Gitaroo]

so this game in one a single layer disc? not dual layer?

I also would like to know.

I just learned how to install VC games and got it to work yesterday using the following method:

A friend who always seems to be right anytime there's big Wii news says that there is an update with this game that uses ISO37 and will not allow these games to work, therefore I will only be able to load via the TP hack (which I don't know how to do yet but found great instructions here: http://wiibrew.org/index.php?title=Twilight_Hack).

I am surprised as hell that no one else is discussing this here......

I haven't updated since Super Smash Brothers Brawl, and Mario Kart Wii did NOT ask me to update.

Trucha games are working fine for me.

 

[Akoji]

Hey does the game is very playable without a Mario Kart Wheel?

 

[kedest]

You can hold the wiimote horizontally and tilt it, it works.
you can also use wiimote+nunchuck or classic controller, and also the gamecube controller

Wow, I'm really surprised. I must have heard wrong information then. I also am in the same boat - I updated for SSBB. However, I haven't even tried this game. I find it very odd that it didn't ask for an update. My friend who bought the game said it did, but that might have been because they didn't update for Brawl yet.

 

[Tripp]

It did not ask me to update.

 

[triassic911]

Is there any reason to download this one? The PAL one works just fine...

 

[Warren_303]

I'm pretty sure once you have installed the Brawl update that you will not see an update on MKW.
Judging from what has happened with my experience as well as friends on their Wii's.

 

[Bob Loblaw]

no update for me either. working good.


but me and wifey were playing online tonight and I was wondering if there is a way to change the split screen so it's split down the middle (vertically), Instead of one person having the top of the screen and one person having the bottom?
