Mario Kart 8 / Mario Kart 8 Deluxe

Re: Mario Kart 8

I don't understand what memory has to do with racer speed

I could make racers in Mario Kart Wii drive like 200mph with gecko codes

I don't think it works that way.

There are speed modifier codes in Mario Kart Wii, so they can just tinker with the engine speed to make vehicles go faster.

300cc ftw.
