Mario Kart TIMES!
Rhiannon and I played Mario Kart Wii online for the first time! It was FUN~! I think the system is pretty effective, allowing votes between choosing stages and whatnot... Just GREAT! For my part, I continue to race with my main racers. While I must admit I make the best "records" with Waluigi and Donkey Kong and such, I don't like to race as them. I shallowly choose my racers based on how much I like the way they and their karts/bikes look and on the stuff they say/noises they make. ^_^; Having good acceleration is important for me, too, because I bump into everything and everyone and I need to be able to recover quickly. >.<
And so, I have decided my main racers will always be Rosalina, Daisy, Peach, and Toadette. See? One for each kart type (well, two in Daisy and Peach's cases)!
(If I didn't mention a kart/bike, it means I don't have it yet. ^_^; )
Standard Kart S/M/L:
I rarely use the standard karts... They're good but they're the classic kart and I kind of always want to try the other ones instead. I guess I do use them when I don't know what kart is best for a level.
Booster Seat:
I think this kart is pretty good for small rider peoples, but I don't like my kart basically being a baby stroller, so I only use it if I reeeally want to use a small rider like Toadette and also need good acceleration and can't use bikes for some reason. I'd choose the Quaker or the Bit Bike over it.
Mini Beast:
I like the look of it and it is one of the fastest small karts, so this is usually the kart I'll choose if I'm using Toadette. The only bad part is the slower acceleration...
Tiny Titan
I've never been much for those cars with the huge wheels, so I don't use this one that often. However, the Off-Road thing is good!
Standard Bike S/M/L
Pretty much the same deal as with the standard karts.
Bullet Bike
It's so cute! This is one of the bikes I like to choose. Plus I have this whole thing about Bullet Bill now and am a huge fan, so...
Bit Bike:
It has good acceleration, off-road, and handling, so I use the Bit Bike a lot too. However, the speed is not as good as with other bikes, so if I'm going on a level like Shy Guy Beach or something I'll choose something else.
Quaker:
AHAHAHA! It's so cute! I like it, for some reason. I just got it fairly recentlyish, so I haven't used it a lot, but I sure PLAN to. Plus good acceleration and handling and off road and such! Like the Bit Bike, it seems to have not-so-great speed, though.
Magikruiser:
This is tied with the Bullet Bike for my favorite small bike. I think the design is really cool and I like the good off-roadness and the acceleration, handling, and speed are pretty good, right?
Classic Dragster:
I actually don't like the look of it too much but I use it if I need a kart with great acceleration, I guess.
Wild Wing:
I love the Wild Wing! With its little wings on the back! *_* And its speed is great! Unfortunately, acceleration is not as great, so I try not to use it to places where I'm bumping into stuff all the time, like Bowser's Friggin Castle.
Super Blooper:
Like the Quaker, this one has a neat, weird design I love. I really would like to use it more but the stats somehow don't look that great when compared to others... Still, I think it is in my top 3 medium karts/bikes.
Daytripper:
I looove how it looks. I always like those karts that look like coaches. And it has good acceleration!
Mach Bike:
I use this one a lot, especially if I have the need for speed~! And I like how it looks, too.
Sugarscoot:
This is my favorite medium bike, if only because of its name and look. And it has good acceleration and handling!
Zip Zip:
Pretty good! I don't use it too often, though, I think.
Offroader:
I use this kart a LOT. Maybe it's my favorite large kart. The look of it is ok (I actually like large karts/bikes the least in terms of looks), but it has good acceleration and good WEIGHT, so I can bump into people and stuff.
Flame Fryer:
Another one I use a lot for its speed. It looks all intimidating!
Piranha Prowler:
I use this kart the most, recently, probably because of its speed and weight. However, if I bump into something I'm semi-screwed. The look of it is cool, too!
Honeycoupe:
Why have I only used this one, like, twice...? I think it's just too yellow for me or something (since I usually use large karts with Rosalina)...
Flame Runner:
My large speed bike. I use it when I need speed. Actually, I rarely choose this bike.
Wario Bike:
According to my records, this is my most often used kart/bike, which is kind of surprising! For some reason, I do really well with Rosalina in this bike, so I kept using her in all of my Grand Prix races. I think it looks cool too!
Shooting Star:
I love its look and name but I rarely use it, probably cause of its acceleration.
And that is my kart/bike review for now!
OH! I forgot to say! I saw Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth for the PSP at the store yesterday~! I'd been curious about and been wanting to play that game for a long time (well, Valkyrie Profile for the PlayStation but it's the same game, basically, right?), so I had to get it. I hear you usually had to pay, like, $100 on eBay for the original, so I was happy to find the PSP version for $25. So I got it! I'm just at the very beginning but it looks good so far! I still have to get used to the whole moving side to side only thing, though. ^_^; It's a silly, unimportant complaint, but it weirds me out. Also, I decided to give in and actually buy Professor Layton and the Curious Village because I missed it a lot. My next purchase will probably be Super Smash Bros Brawl sometime next week (and maybe Wii Fit if I get lucky!? YES?! T_T). That way I can play with EVERYONE~! *_* I hope I can still use Peach...
