Mikey and the Titan - Drop From The Top

Video proof that I actually made it to 9999VR, and a testament to how hard attaining and maintaining such a ranking is using the Tiny Titan w/Mii. The license this was done on is one I have exclusively used only the Tiny Titan, except for the one time trial done at the very beginning which is required to unlock the Titan (done using the Standard S kart), and the initial required usage of bikes to clear the 100cc GP (done using the Bit Bike).

The music in the video is "The Message From Dr. Light" by The Megas, a San Diego band that does covers of Megaman songs. This particular song is the music to the Megaman 2 stage selection screen.

Hi ive got 3stars and all on my main license but im considering doing something similair to you on a second license. do you have any suggestions as to a fun or unique vehicle i could use.

[mikefromsantee]

I'm pretty partial to the Bit Bike and Offroader... even though they're almost complete opposites.

It's most definitely not easy to get to 9999vr but I find it more fun to play my style than the supposed "best" style. My style is mostly blocking racing lines and cheating by using shortcuts others can't, so the Titan's the best fit for me. Try picking a vehicle with a trait that you might find fun to abuse. Then overabuse it and annoy opponents to no end with it. It's fun. :-D

what song is this? IT ROCKS!!!

[mikefromsantee]

It's called "The Message From Dr. Light" by The Megas. The song is actually about Megaman, sung from the point of view of Megaman's creator Dr. Light, but the lyrics describe my relationship with my mii well.

Oh, it doesn't hurt that I like Megaman as well, and that I frequently refer to my Tiny Titan as "the Blue Bomber". XD

ur good and all

but what you need a better quality videos and you will be set :)

[mikefromsantee]

If you're talking about the resolution of my videos, you're right. Unfortunately the problem is due to trying to push out-of-date hardware to do things they weren't originally designed to do. Hopefully in the near future I'll get a better computer and then I'll really be all set. :)

Thanks for the imput. I was already thinking about the Offroader so im gonna go with that. Ill also be using the wario bike to do the initial 100ccs. Wish me luck.

This vid is epic!

I've been Green Shell sniping since Mario Kart 64, though my accuracy gets thrown off by the lag in Mario Kart Wii. People are rarely where they appear to be.

[mikefromsantee]

This is actually a really good question. Accuracy with shell launching is a great asset for sure, but there's more to it than that. The next series of MKW videos I have planned are case studies of tactics and strategies I use, which I hope will help not just you or my clan mates but everyone that would like to take their racing to the next level. I'll be posting some videos very soon, so keep on the lookout!
