Author Topic: Mario Kart Wii Poll (no spoilers)  (Read 13276 times)

« on: May 01, 2008, 08:14:53 PM »
There are many questions to ask so I couldn't just put one poll. So here they are:


1. Which do you prefer? Karts or bikes?

2.  What is your opinion on how they (nintendo) made it so easy to go first to 12th place?

3. Which is your favorite Mario Kart game?

4. Which weight class do you prefer?

5. What are some tracks from previous games that you wanted to see in MKWii?

6. Which new course do you think is the hardest?

7. Which control scheme do you prefer?

8. What is your favorite new course?

9. What is your favorite Retro Cup in MKWii?

10. What do you think is the worst new course? Worst retro course?


I may add more later, and here are my answers:

1. Karts, definitely
2. It really frustrates me when that happens, especially at the end of the race
3. I would have to say Double Dash
4. I like to use Medium weight, but when I have to use bikes, I prefer Heavy/large
5. Tick Tock Clock and Airship Fortress from Ds and Royal Raceway from 64
6. Rainbow road, though Wario's mines is a close second.
7. Gamecube controller
8. I would have to say Koopa Cape.
9. N64 Bowser's Castle, it brings back memories.
10. Wario's Gold Mine (I don't like that course for some reason). For retro I'd say SNES ghost valley

As said in the title try not to give away spoilers, though secret courses are OK.
Edit: If you want to put new characters you can put them in spoiler text.

1. Karts, though bikes ARE fun
2. DO NOT WANT
3. 64 has a special place in my heart. It was also the first MK game I played.
4. I always use Yoshi, who is a middle-weight, so...
5. Wario's Colosseum, uhh Toad's Turnpike...Still would've liked to see a Rainbow Cup.
6. Maybe Moonview Highway.
7. Wii Wheel
8. Maple Treeway
9. Lightning Cup
10. Wii: Grumble Volcano Retro: SNES Boo whatever I don't care to call it by its proper name.

Also, I dislike N64 Mario Raceway, and always have ever since Mario Kart 64.

Why does everyone like Toad's Turnpike so much? It is a much-too-simple course with really weird music.
That was a joke.

1. Bikes. I never get to red spikes anyway.
2. Gah, it sucks that you get touched and instantly lose. 150cc is quite a challenge...
3. Aside from Mario Kart Wii, Mario Kart DS is the non-arcade one I have played the least, and this is because the shoulder buttons on my DS Lite do not work. But they chose some excellent retro tracks, made some excellent new ones, and I'm going with it.
4. Middle.
5. Wario Collosseum, Waluigi Pinball, Mushroom City.
6. Don't get what everyone sees so difficult in Rainbow Road. I say Moonview Highway.

Well on Rainbow Road it seems like about half the boosts I go on shoot me off the stage. and sometimes I'll fall off the edge when going on sharp wall-less turns

Play it on mirror mode and it becomes more difficult.

And the music is awesome.

1.  I don't know
2.  Worst decision ever
3.  MK64  It was my first Mario Kart, and I get a sense of nostalgia when I listen to the music.
4.  I seem to do pretty well in the tall characters for some reason.  I guess it's because they don't get knocked around as easily.  It's odd because I mained with middle and light weight characters in past Mario Karts
5.  Waluigi Pinball, Koopa Troopa Beach (MK 64), Airship Fortress
6.  Moonview Highway.  The drivers are unpredictable.  Makes it too realistic, like if you and your friends actually decided to go go-karting on a busy street, unless you have amazing manuver skills, you are going to get hit a lot.
7.  Having a hard time choosing between GCN controller and the Wii Wheel
8.  Koopa Cape

Of course, you couldn't, since go-karts are not street-legal. Motorcycles, however, are. But if you're going to ride motorcycles in San Francisco, you might want to obey traffic laws and not throw Blue Shells.

<Kojinka> When I saw this thread back on top, I was afraid this was gonna be another pointless bump by a new member, but when I saw Super-Jesse's username, my fears were laid to rest.

1. Which do you prefer? Karts or bikes?
Bikes are fun, but I prefer the good old karts.

2.  What is your opinion on how they (nintendo) made it so easy to go first to 12th place?
I've never fallen into 12th place in Solo GP but I do find it annoying how cmmon many of the powerful items are. Mainly the POW Blacks which can either kill your momentum or if over a jump, you fall to your doom.

3. Which is your favorite Mario Kart game?
Mario Kart: Double Dash

4. Which weight class do you prefer?
lightweight, even though I mainly play as as a certain Heavyweight

5. What are some tracks from previous games that you wanted to see in MKWii?
Koopa Beach 1, Daisy Cruiser, Airship Fortress, Vanilla Lake, Cheese Land and Royal Raceway

6. Which new course do you think is the hardest?
Moonview Highway probably

7. Which control scheme do you prefer?
Wiimote + Nunchuk, surprisingly

8. What is your favorite new course?
Coconut Mall, Koopa Cape and Maple Treeway

9. What is your favorite Retro Cup in MKWii?
Mario Circuit 3

10. What do you think is the worst new course? Worst retro course?
Yoshi Falls blows. Can't recall a bad new track though

As a game that requires six friends, an HDTV, and skill, I can see why the majority of TMK is going to hate on it hard.

I added 2 more questions and here they are:

7. Which control scheme do you prefer?

8. What is your favorite new course?

Also it is now OK to put secret characters as long as they're inn spoiler text.us

7. GameCube Controller. It would be cool to master the Wheel, but it's...  not great.

8. Koopa Cape rocks.

9. (I just know you're going to ask for favorite retro track next) Super NES Mario Circuit 3

1. Bikes
2. It seriously ruins the game.
3. Mario Kart 64.
4. Heavyweights.
5. Sunset Wilds, Cheep Cheep Beach, Cheese Land and Royal Raceway.
6. Rainbow Road. My color-blindedness makes it super-hard. Sometimes I go off the track because I couldn't tell that I was going off it.
7. Classic Controller.
8. Moonview Highway. Nightime track + Cars = Awesomeness.
9. The one with Bowser's Castle 3...Leaf Cup?
