Mario Kart Wii - Henry's Cup (Saturday)

I've never seen such a display of utter cruelty towards one person in a set of races in Mario Kart Wii before. What am I, a punching bag?

Race #1
Mushroom Gorge
Some people say that every time people race on Mushroom Gorge, the track claims a victim. Well, I was one of those. Mushroom Gorge is THE best place to sabotage people with items in the game because of the large amount of jumps, and a well-timed Lightning Bolt can make short work of anyone in the lead. Though it was a Banana that prevented me from advancing too far up the ranks.

Race #2
Toad's Factory
I must have the worst luck with Bullet Bills. One Bullet Bill on the first lap got rid of my Triple Red Shells and set me up for a one-two-three punch, and the second one knocked me off the road when I was finally able to catch up. In both cases, they were activated very close behind me, enough that I couldn't look back, and both cases when I couldn't move left or right very freely. Ah well.

Race #3
Koopa Cape
So I'm in the back now. I have 2 points total, which is probably the lowest score I've ever had. What's happening now is that people are trying what they can to prevent me from getting any Items. I guess people also defend their spots in that way. My getting struck with the Lightning Cloud at the beginning is probably good foreshadowing of how the rest of the race would turn out.

Race #4
DK Summit
So the game itself decides to join up in making sure I get a hard time, having been objectively participating until now. It happens right at the first lap. Or maybe it deems me unworthy of continuing to play.

hey, where did u get ur MK wii?? cuz i keep going to gamestop and every time they say they nor anybody else around has it. and i REALLY want this game. lol.

[Overhazard]

Really? I still see several copies of it all the time at Target and at Costco.

Gamestop really isn't the best place to go for video games. Gamestop knows many people go there first, so it make the games more expensive than they should be.

[ragekage209]

oh, well, gamestop is the only place within biking distance of my house, and i don't have a license yet. and, my parents won't drive me to get it. xD

[Overhazard]

No Targets, Wal-Marts, Costcos, Best Buys, Toys R Usses, Game Crazies, or Play-N-Trades near where you live?

[scsteeldrums]

know the feeling duder... ouch. you aren't even driving that badly

[hjt091]

You think Mushroom Gorge is bad? hah!

Rainbow Road seems to delight in giving you Golden Mushrooms, when you're in last, which of course means, unless you're outstandingly good, you'll end up hurtling off the track

I love Rainbow Road

Ya'll aint even seen anything yet.. I will upload a video soon of this homie called Lima. If you want to see the definition of punishment this is your guy. Just picture this a visionare green knockes dude off the course. As he returns from this exile he is hit by a bullet bill back of the course and to make things worse a corner later lightening hits and hes back off the course. All this to come a dismal last. Compounded by the fact that he was overlapped by everyone up to 4th place. Thats bad!

[TheFadBase]

Well, you say that's bad luck. I've been having bad luck since I started playing Wi-Fi in MKWii. One time, I was in 2nd place, the guy in first place was about to be hit by a Blue Shell and then the shell turned around and hit me. THIS is bad luck too.

I, too, feel like a punching bag, and the things in the video are the exact same things that happen to me. If you can drift really well, I suggest using the Concerto+any small character combo. The end of the video happens to me all the time.
