If you ever encounter a player named Juga Juga (he has Mario in front of an American Flag), both watch out and take interest in him. Not only is he seemingly able to get infinite boost without snaking, but he was able to choose courses not normally available for online mode. Most notably, he chose Bowser's Castle (which made me first think that the other courses were open, and I was sorely disappointed when I went through the list), as well as Block Fort, a battle course area. Too bad the computer decided not to choose those courses over the non-shark'd players. I would've been very interested in playing those places (Bowser's Castle being my particular favorite race course, and the other simply not being a race course).

Re: Gameshark'd Mario Kart DS
Anybody could tell how crappy their service is just by trying out one online game. And if it means that there really is a chance of playing those places online, I won't complain. Just as long as the person only cheats to get those places and not to win.Last edited by ErikaFuzzbottom; 04-21-2006, 12:13 AM."What if like...there was an exact copy of you somewhere, except they're the opposite gender, like you guys could literally have a freaky friday moment and nothing would change.

Re: Gameshark'd Mario Kart DS
Yeah, but the service just started in November. It'll get better.[cenComment

Re: Gameshark'd Mario Kart DS
I'm assuming they'll drastically overhaul WFC for Revolution. Cause the whole friend code thing is already frustrating and there's only a handful of wifi games. If they simply saved the wifi settings on the DS rather than on the cartridges they could have an XBL type system but that'd involve putting at least a little persistent memory in the unit and that's apparently too much to ask.I want that Mulan McNugget sauce, Morty!Comment

Re: Gameshark'd Mario Kart DS
I just want them to get away from that search system they seem intent on using, and give us an actual server full of players and games to pick and choose from.
Unfortunately, even if they do upgrade WFC, games like Mario Kart will probably still have a lack-luster (even if fun) online mode."What if like...there was an exact copy of you somewhere, except they're the opposite gender, like you guys could literally have a freaky friday moment and nothing would change.

Re: Gameshark'd Mario Kart DS
Wow, this lack of security is almost on every online system. Including PC. You'll always find hackers. No point in complaining about it.Originally posted by joshComment

Re: Gameshark'd Mario Kart DS
I have doubts that they have an online security in the first place, aside from one that prevents hacking of their servers.Last edited by ErikaFuzzbottom; 04-21-2006, 04:07 PM."What if like...there was an exact copy of you somewhere, except they're the opposite gender, like you guys could literally have a freaky friday moment and nothing would change.

Re: Gameshark'd Mario Kart DS
A trip to Wiki shows what the deal is with "unlocking" these places.
*click*One could only hope that, if this becomes popular enough, Nintendo will wind up releasing an official patch.Normally, there are only twenty tracks available for online play. Recently, however, a user with the alias "Parasyte" [1] discovered how to unlock single player tracks for use over Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection, using a PassMe and a Game Boy Advance Flash Cartridge. Tracks such as Airship Fortress, Tick-Tock Clock, Waluigi Pinball, and others have been played online. Apart from a few minor glitches, these tracks can be played just like the others. A hack has been released online by another user, with the alias "Natrium42." [2]
Anyone with the proper equipment can load it onto their game and race these single player tracks against other players using the Wi-Fi Connection. These people are in great demand, seeing as many of the most popular tracks are disabled for online play, but users still want to race in them.
In the meantime, I'm gonna go see if I can do this myself."What if like...there was an exact copy of you somewhere, except they're the opposite gender, like you guys could literally have a freaky friday moment and nothing would change. Imagine the best friendship that could be found there."Comment
