Mario Kart Wii - Jun 11 09 A

People play pretty aggressively against me. Race #1 SNES Mario Circuit 3 Yeah, I bump a lot of people around using the Jetsetter. Though I'm more inclined to do it against people using bikes, and even more so when they're using wheelies. After all, this is an advantage karts have over bikes: It can bump people around more freely. I might as well utilize it as much as I can. The Red Shell went around my Banana Bunch, but it wasn't enough to knock the lead away from me. The Blue Shell did, however. I swear, that Lightning Bolt was done on purpose to screw everybody in the top few positions out of their items. Race #2 N64 Mario Raceway Looks like I'm doing just fine holding everybody off...then a Blue Shell comes by and smacks me in the second lap. I should've seen that coming...King Boo keeps the underside of the Jetsetter really clean. Race #3 GCN DK Mountain Onto a different room now...these guys really pack some serious heat. Side-show is pretty impressive. He's a 3-Star golden Wii Wheeler who uses the Blue Falcon on Automatic. He's incredibly difficult to beat, and he wins because he's a risk taker and I am not. I often choose not to do "the shortcut" because I can't do it consistently. Actually, there are few things in this game I can do consistently. I wonder how people can pull off near-perfect runs so often. I'm always making mistakes, not just in Mario Kart but in everything I do.
