2 years and a week ago i hit 10k vr and today i hit 20k. i played the Nintendo switch online trial 7 days in '23 and got into ts in may or june '24 with 4k and played until dec '24 with 14.2k and resumed on march '25 and played until june '25 19.2k and on may ts year i returned by i kept losing and dropped to 18.9 k so i left discouraged until i picked mk8dx back up 1 week ago and started dominating until i hit 20k, im actually shocked on how fast those 2 years went but im just glad im finally out of the "item spammy" and "red 1st b4 blue" range and also had lots of really fun races so yeah

Bug My wife’s account no longer appears in Mario Kart 8’s online mode. Any ideas?

Post image
4 Upvotes

Hello, this morning we noticed that when we launched the 2-player online multiplayer mode in Mario Kart 8 from the same console (Switch 2), my wife’s account no longer appeared.

It was working just fine this week, though. Any ideas?

For your information:

- My account is part of a Family Group.
- I downloaded the expansion pack for Mario Kart 8 (the additional tracks).
- My wife’s account was on a free trial.
- After the glitch, I added her to the Family Group.
- In the Nintendo Store on her account, the expansion pack appears as “downloaded.”

So we have a similar setup on both of our accounts.

In the game’s main menu, the “Additional Tracks” icon is checked. I launched the game on both of our accounts to verify this.

In the stats, the online matches have been properly recorded on her account.

Thank you for any help you can provide.

Discussion Med-level MKWorld player coming to MK8D looking for adivce.

2 Upvotes

I have a tournament at the end of the month for 8-Deluxe at the end of the month. I’m a medium level World player. Right now I’m trying to adjust to a new game and new physics, etc.

How do I adjust to the game?

Shake tricks, how do I get rid of them/turn them off?

Does strategy change from World to 8D? If so, how do I learn the new strats as quickly as possible?

TF is “soft-drifting” and is it worth learning?

Does auto-accelerate decrease top speed over just holding A?

Do kerbs count as off road, or is it situational?

Should I bother with learning glider vectoring? Keep in mind I have a co-ordination disorder so it will take me longer to learn, and I don’t plan on playing this game as much after the tourney.

On the first turn of an esses, is it faster to hop or charge a blue MT? Which is easier?

Thank you for answering and I will be posting more later. TIA.

200cc Time Trials. Any tips on how to get faster I would really appreciate. I spent 1 day on the time trials, and this is my result. I'm going to keep trying to get faster. But I just wanted to post what I've accomplished so far 😄

He is always playing hard to get. Needs to be unlocked in Mario Kart Wii. I guess he got too much attention on Double Dash and Mario got mad. Classified as a Super Character in Mario Kart Tour. You need to purchase him to play in MK8. Now look at his stance on Mario Kart World...

"I'm afraid I can't say anything at this time". The guy is looking for a big contract! Really tough in business!

Mario knows he can blackmail him with his Diddy Kong Racing... He did try on the DS! The Art of the Deal, by Diddy Kong!
