That was far too close. ;)

Just so disappointed my favorite tracks aren't online.

Re: Snagged an early copy of Mario Kart DS
 

Yea, that airship level is probably my favorite.

Re: Snagged an early copy of Mario Kart DS
 

God guys I HAVE to play online with you!

Almost everybody who plays me disconnects! I only had two people stick it out all 4 races in a 3 hour duration!

Am I that intimidating? I hate to brag, but people are afraid of me now.

These were people who had generally equal amounts of losses/wins.

Also, what constitutes a win? A race, or four races? Also, does wireless multiplayer with DS players beside you count? I've got a 24/3 record with my brother and it shows up on his friend profile. I can't tell what mine is.

Care for a round right now?

Re: Snagged an early copy of Mario Kart DS
 

Well, shoot, the starbucks near me doesn't work with my DS. The only hotspot I've gotten working is the one at school in Blenz.

If we were to play online together at this point you would have to be open to about 1-5 PM PST. It changes every day when I'm off, though.

Maybe I have to wait until we get a wireless router.

Birthdaymas is soon.

Mine is Birthdayween...I get cheap candycorn...

Re: Snagged an early copy of Mario Kart DS
 

Just faced my first snaker online. Man that was annoying. He kept picking Figure-8. I actually was forced into attempting to snake to keep up with this guy. He won that track but luckily I'm pretty good at DK Pass and know about the special item box. Then won again on Peach Circuit by power boosting like crazy. Record 11-0.

Re: Snagged an early copy of Mario Kart DS
 

Do you have to get A's to unlock new tracks? I have all the tracks for 50cc but I have yet to unlock all the 100cc and 150cc tracks. Maybe I need to complete more missions?

Re: Snagged an early copy of Mario Kart DS
 

The grade doesn't matter. Just have to come in first and get a gold trophy for each cup. So once get gold on the first two cups, another opens. First in that and the last one opens. First in that and you get something nice: new character or more karts.

Mission Mode doesn't unlock anything. But for instance, if you get at least a star in every mission and every single cup on every level, online there will be a star next to your name. Same goes for getting two stars and three stars on everything.



I'm working on the one star right now. Just two more cups in mirror mode I gotta change the A to a star...and I barely touched mission mode so gotta get a star in everyone of those.

Re: Snagged an early copy of Mario Kart DS
 

I heard about that; I've got 3 stars for every cup in 50cc and half of 100cc.

Also, I played online today against a cheating bastard who had a 282-20 record. I thought, I have to put this fool to shame.

I'm not even lying in this next part.

In Mario Circuit, he drove out into the middle of the track and turned into a ghost. He disappeared off the ****ing map. So I'm doing swell, right, 1st the entire race. This guy must have chickened out.

No. He appeared literally out of nowhere and came in first.

I just thought I'd warn you guys about this glitch.

The other 3 matches were a disgrace. I almost had him on Peach Circuit but on the other courses he was just using cheap ****ing tactics.

His name was Tomek and he had a marijuana leaf as his icon. No stars. Just save yourself a headache if you see him.

Also, nobody answered my question? What constitutes a win? Four races as one victory, or each individual race? I have a hard time believing Tomek won all 282 of those fairly at all.

Re: Snagged an early copy of Mario Kart DS
 

A win is when a person wins the majority of the four races. Like even though I beat Dan at one course, he won the other three, thus I have a loss against him listed in his friend profile.

Re: Snagged an early copy of Mario Kart DS
 

That means I have two losses then.

Sweet.

Re: Snagged an early copy of Mario Kart DS
 

This Tomek guy has also been in the top five for a while now. Other people have played him and they showed me this.

What a damn bastard.
