If we're playing we best make sure we've got each other's friend codes - that gubbed me a few times when Dusty invited random ONM gimps to the NGamer sessions back in the day.

My Wii code is: 3582 7761 3451 9435

It might also be useful if we organise a time.

Good idea, here's my Mario Kart Wii FC (you'll probably have to repost yours, just remembered friend codes on Wii were game specific)

1891-1298-0488

Here's a link to the old thread if you're like me and too lazy to dig out the game before the evening! http://forums.computerandvideogames.com/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=113530

Good thinking. Here's mine for Mario Kart Wii: 3567 7483 4784

Its still a bland, soulless cash-in. It also feels so amateurish to me. Why does it look worse than 2003's Double Dash? Why is the track design so insipid? Why are bikes so much better than karts? Why is the local multiplayer so poor? How come it's so goddamn boring? There's five questions I'd like to ask the producers off the top of my head.

Sonic & SEGA All Stars Racing does everything better - I feel its the game Mario Kart Wii should have been. Not many games really wind me up, but MKWii is part of that elusive club of utter s***e.

Bloody hell! I must have stepped in something that morning. Still think it looks rough by 2008 standards let alone 2014, mind.

I'll stick my number on when I get home from work. My wifi won't be up to the challenge until 5 ish anyway.

Anyone up for a game of Mario Kart Wii this evening?

I'll still be popping online to play some random matches, but if we can get a game going I'd much rather do that!

Yeah, count me in, though selfishly I'd preferably play in the early evening as I might be out Buskalillying it tonight.

Alrighty, let me know when you pop on and I'll head on (asap if it is short notice)

Going to have to pass tonight I'm afraid. I didn't realise the time until my gf got in from work and I realised I'd looked at 125 pages of memes...

A shame Buskalilly was struck with PhillipsConnection tonight (well, it *was* Mario Kart Sunday), but otherwise I had a great time, I thought the final match we had was the best, since we all had the same interests in mind (and I feel smug for pushing both Dusty and Phillips into the icy sea of Sherbet Land).

After switching it off and on again my wifi worked fine but by then it was time to record a podcast. Definitely need to get another session in before ninty shuts it down.

That was quite good last night! I hope we get it going again at least once before the servers close, and with more folk too. That said, I didn't remember it feeling so lonely. Voice chat is a must for Mario Kart 8.

Are there any other good Wii online games we could maybe give a bash before May 20th? I've currently got 117 (!) Wii games, so I'm sure I could play something else with youse.

I always enjoyed Strikers, though I'm not great at it.

I regret not picking up Strikers, even moreso after reading http://metro.co.uk/2014/03/01/weekend-hot-topic-part-1-best-surprises-of-last-gen-4345461/ about the game (second post down). Sounds ace, and I can't believe I shunned it back in 2007.

Is anyone up for some games of Bomberman Blast? I'd love to play that online with you all before the servers get shut down, it was such a laugh when we used to play it.

On a slightly related note, Nintendo turned off WiiConnect24 and the Wii friends list ages ago, didn't they? I'm guessing that means no more MaBoShi ghost data being sent about...

I'm also up for more Mario Kart Wii games.

I have a copy, it came in the bundle when I bought the console. Never really played it.

Sounds like me and Mario and Sonic at the 2012 Olympics, bundled with my second Wii but it still has yet to leave the cardboard sleeve.

Strikers was great. I remember SD Downs back on the old place trying to get #1 position on the daily leaderboards and writing a brilliant blog post about it.

Strikers was especially fun when you scored over 50 and your opponent didn't quit. I even scored 100 in a match once, thanks to Boo.

It was the ol' teleport into the goals trick with Dry Bones that won me my matches.
