soooo… what’s your new friend code? Although I doubt I’ll be on much this week- Finals Week bleh :wasted:
BTW, quick snaking qustion. Sometimes on straight-aways I’ll catch myself snaking, but not winding (not left to right, but I keep drifting to the same direction). Does this put a hamper on speed?
no, snaking isn’t “legit” its been picked up by the people who are playing the game so as long as you just do turbos you’ll be fine … I do them in the same direction on turns …and snake on straights “snake” is just used because its like you’re slithering left-right like a snake
Apperantly my friend code is the same, It was just telling me some crap about some number on the new ds I got was different from the one I had before and people would have to re-add me…or something like that.
on your vid, you weren’t doing it on straight ways. so how can you say it can only be done on straight ways?
even on gamefaqs, they said it’s easy with yoshi and his egg, which i found out myself.
i dunno what’s the big deal with snaking, i mean it is a big help, and it’s different than before, but i been whoring powerslide turbos since mk64, not for GC though cuz they changed the powerslide system. before it was easier if there a long curve, now it’s easier if it’s a straight way.
Its Pretty Much easier to powerslide / snake anywhere. Put it this way, It takes more skill to powerslide on more narrow levels like DK Pass or Rainbow Road, however much less on courses like Figure 8 circut and Baby Park. Im no champion myself bu i have seen some sick stuff. For example i played a dude who non stop snaked on DK Pass :-P.
By the way Yoshi only helps sliding a tad bit but the reason people say to use him is cause if u wanna play right away he’s the best option.
Hey, you think we can put Animal Crossing friend codes in here too? I think it would suck having to look for two different threads for friend codes, so I figured we can consolidate them all in one, you know?
i loved to play you guy, if only i didn’t sell my game to srk member apokalipse or something.
i’ve seen your vid, and you turbo every chance you get, snaking makes it more often. good to you. again, answer my question, if it’s only possible to do it on straight ways? why were YOU doing it on turns also?
I learned that too when i had the game, except i never knew you could do it so easily with bowser, i couldn’t do it myself with him.
using luigi has my main, i would snake on straight ways, and be mostly in the middle of the road the entire time at about the same rate you’re doing it.
if both players can do it, it’s no big deal. i could be winning the entire lap snaking to get randomized by an item last second and lose. which is why i kinda hate the game.
but if i ever get a hold of the game again, i’ll play you 1v1, bowser vs luigi, snaking all the way, items or no items
because the term “snaking” refers to when you do it on a straight. Since you’re using left-right turns and it looks like a snake slithering … that’s why that’s called “snaking” I’m only talking about the term …:looney:
I think it’d be easier to have all Wifi DS codes here, separated by game on the first post. Let me know what you guys think, I don’t want to go against the flow…
Totally. And edit the topic title to say “(with friend code lists)”. Ya know, taking out the Mario Kart bit.
Are we ever going to have a tournament for Mario Kart? We could make sure that we all get on at once for a Friends battle. 12 of us race
