Mario Kart Wii discussion

It's necessary to know how to hold an item behind you if you want to do well in the 150cc and Mirror Mode cups.
 
I don't do that. I usually keep an item until I hear alert noises. Then I activate it. I do fine either way.
 
Holding an item seems safer to me, and I like to play it safe most of the time.

Has anyone ever experienced a glitch that allows them to perform an infinite wheelie? I once did, but I didn't realize it was a glitch until I went to the next race and couldn't do it.
 
It's so easy to lose your item, that's why I keep it in the inventory. Getting hit by anything means you're gonna drop your item and be defenseless.

Well, I haven't experienced that glitch. How do you activate it?
 
I like holding the Item behind me, Usually I keep it behind me until I get another hold Item, then release it and Hold the newer Item behind me. It really helps me during Wi-Fi, Since I use Automatic.
 
Don't you hate it when Red Shells take shortcuts?! That easily renders your defensive items useless.
 
They love to sneek up on you hitting the side of your car/bike.

I don't know. It happened while I was playing versus mode with my family. We were just messing around on Moonview Highway and it happened. All of us were able to do it.

It was pretty cool, because we could do wheelies backward and during a spin turn, just by holding up on the D-pad on the GameCube controller.
 
Uh, guys, Red Shells don't attempt to hit you on your side in Mario Kart Wii. That's in Mario Kart DS. The only times Red Shells hit me is if I'm defenseless, I land on the shell, or I make a really sharp turn and it hits me on the side because of my turning.
