    Default MK Wii driving preference

    Just curious.. what is your preference and why?
    I use the Wii-mote/Nunchuck (chuck in right hand Wii-mote in left)
    Now it is the beginning of
    a fantastic story! Let us
    make a Journey to
    the cave of Monters!
    Good luck!

    Wouldn't this be better suited for the Modern Gaming board?

    And I'd use a GCN Controller or the Classic Controller, simply because I hate that damn motion-sensing dildo.

    Not exactly on topic, but am I the only person who constantly sees "MK" in a thread and get confused thinking it's Mortal Kombat and not Mario Kart? If it must be shortened can we call it 'Mkart' or something other than an already well established abbreviation?

    Well, the inclusion of 'Wii' and 'Driving' kind of helped to identify it.

    Do you ever wonder why so many people think you're a tool?


    On topic, are there any special moves that you must use the wiimote for? Or can you do everything with the classic controller/GC controller to?

    Yeah, you're right. It's much more likely that someone made a topic about driving preferences in a mini-game contained in a game that is nearing a year old, as apposed to a game with the same initials centered around the concept of driving released three days ago.

    Mkart is too much like all the name combining of celebrity couples that goes on currently.

    I prefer the GC controller. Especially for bikes, I find the wheel to be really annoying for getting in and out of the wheelie.

    True, but which came first? Mario Kart was released on August 21, 1992 in Japan, and September 1 in the US. Mortal Kombat was also released in 1992, but I was unable to find out exactly when. I'd say whichever is older should rightly be called MK.

    Mortal Kombat got the abbreviation by claimng it themselves. Machines in the Arcades said MK2, MK3 .... on the marques. It doesn't matter though. My conusion only lasts a matter of seconds until the post makes the proper game obvious, I'll just live with it.

    I dig the Wii Wheel ... I'm really impressed with it's accuracy / fun factor.

    Personally I like the retro controller. I like the "return to center" option the controls have as opposed to the wheel which you really never know what dead center is after you've started racing.

    I haven't tried the GC option though...I might have to try it out.
