Edit: I bought the game at Willow Video in Langley. Opened at Midnight for Mario kart release (only had 45 copies). The steering wheels were selling for 15 bucks. They were the same ones as the one included with the game. I'm not sure if this version of Kart is better than the DS version. Just different. The courses are pretty wild. Back to playing........
Ya I thought they were going to sell out quick but nope I picked up 2 copys played till 4am

Yeah, I got used to the wheel and it's not that bad. I was just being lazy, as GC controller lets you lie on your back, your side, your tummy, whatever and, you know what I mean.

dvd-r works for single layer games..

i use maxell for most my wii games, and they are really good quality, the cover cd doesnt peel


dvd+r DL works for dual layer games

as for dual layer dvds, use fujifilm or verbatim...

to make back up games, once you got a hold of the iso file, my best suggestion is to get a program called IMGBurn.. and then just load up and burn the file as an IMG file.. u can also do this with NERO.. but IMGburn is what i use mostly..


anyways i use the wheel control method for Mario Kart but without the wheel case, fuck that, ill just do it the cheap way and hold the wiimote sideways..

did you update your wiikey to latest firmware? Im sure you got the problems like most of us do before. Apparently is the first dual layer game and if your wii key not updated, it cannot read it.

US brawl and im not sure on the version of the wii but it was purchased after summer 2007. which requires it to use d2ckey or d2pro as the modchip

edit: the version of the wii is d2c i believe

saw the ad for futureshop today, they are selling the wii fit 10 over the 89.99 price?
i assume they are gona have tons stock while others will sell out, that's why they
are having the higher price.
