How does Nintendo not prevent this?

Sure, MKWii only allows one blue shell on the map at a time, but still...

Playing a race like this, you would just want to quit.

Hey Ix, they would explain those people we were racing with that were well over half the track ahead of us the enitre time. Ah well...

I haven't touched the Wii in some good time... so I find this more interesting than offensive.

I've never played MK Wii online, yet, so it hasn't affected me. I think Nintendo needs to do something to prevent this in the future, though. Like have a "report cheating" option that calls a Nintendo staff to peek into the game and look for the cheater.

And actually, I'd rather lose to somebody with unlimited items than to somebody who knows how to play the perfect game. At least this way I don't feel like I suck.

I WUZ PWNIN U AT MARIO KART WIF MY GAMESHARK

What the hell, people feel the need to cheat at freaking Mario Kart now?

And I'd guarantee the international races option would probably have less cheating, too. I hate most kids today. Rotten brats.

Sorry for the major bump, but I guess I forgot to bring it up. I did get around to trying out Mario Kart Wii online. And it's awesome. Didn't encounter any cheaters. But I had lots of fun, especially now that we aren't limited to certain stages like we were in Mario Kart DS. As it turns out, I still rock at Mario Karting. Managed to get my ranking over 6000 before I lost interest.

I think we could build that interest back up if we got everyone back into it and jumped on Skype or something. So far, the most we've had in a race was 3 from the Mag... I'm sure we can bump that up.

Hmmm... I have the game, but I haven't played in a long time... also I've never used skype.

In my experience, it takes a long time before you become "out of practice" with a video game. I'm sure you'd do fine.
