I think there's an unspoken rule where if one dude is spamming the Wuhu courses, the rest of the racers make his life a living hell. By that I mean I hope I'm not the only one unleashing fury onto spammers~
If Nintendo fixes/patches something it should be the map voting system so people can't spam the same track over and over.
I think that shortcut's fine, finding these and pulling them off has always been a fun part of Mario Kart.
Lol it's not just you. To be fair to random players, I have seen several people vote for Maka and NOT use the shortcut. They really like the track and want to play it right.
I also saw one guy who voted for Maka 3 times in a row because he cheated every time, get assaulted by a mob on his 3rd attempt.

Sure, yeah. It's a shortcut.What.
Are you defending the glitch? I'm confused.
Keep in mind that the shortcuts (which are plenty on that stage) is not "the glitch"; but that when you fall and Lakitu comes to pick you up..he puts you ahead.Sure, yeah. It's a shortcut.
He's right that there's been lots of this kind of thing in previous MK games and they are kinda fun to find.I'm confused, there's a difference between shortcut's the designers created in the game and exploiting the respawn system of the game.
I don't think there's nothing fun from stopping your car and jumping to the void so you can skip half the circuit.
I'm not really seeing a big difference between this shortcut and past shortcuts in Mario Kart games (Rainbow Road, Wario Stadium etc etc), to be honest.
At least it's not snaking.
are we all in agreement that snaking was the worst thing ever

anybody remember that one contest from nintendo power asking people to post their fastest times on mario raceway? whoever won would win a really cool looking golden control. i remember seeing the winners time and being blown away at how freaking fast it was. my friends and i would play for hours trying to one up each others times on tracks and we gave up playing mario raceway because we couldn't beat it. years later after finding out the secret to the fast time i could never do the trick jump and come close to that time. -_-wtf this looks like a glitch you'd do on MarioKart64. REALLY nintendo?
And that's arguably the worst part of this whole thing... Maka Wuhu is an AWESOME course by itself, totally ruined by a stupid exploit. What a waste.
Nintendo said:There are no plans to update the game to remove this shortcut as doing so would create an unfair advantage for the users of the original release of the game.
If this is real, shake my fucking head.Wow that sucks
I can totally understand the frustration if people vote for the same fucking track over and over again and they get to decide what's being played. That's not fun and definitely ruins the experience.Oh, so it's part of the MK experience. Ok, I ain't mad now.
Looking how many people are piling on me, I don't think it's proper to make me represent GAF in this case.GAF will defend anything.
Sure, yeah. It's a shortcut.

Online aspects has improved, so who knows.
The Zelda bug was relatively easy to fix (though is not out in the US yet):
1. Download the channel
2. Open the channel
3. Save-data fixed
On the Wii they had no other way, since Zelda had no online-hook to get players into getting online and download a patch automatically.
Mario Kart 7 can technically be patched, they just haven't done so yet. The game has been out around a month; so guess that if things remain the same in 3..yeah, there's no interest.
by a large margin tooare we all in agreement that snaking was the worst thing ever
Nintendo has responded to an email regarding Maka Wuhu:
Hello,
Thanks for your patience in waiting for a response during this busy time of year. We are aware that it is possible to navigate a certain part of the track in Wuhu Island in a way that allows a large part of the course to be bypassed. There are no plans to update the game to remove this shortcut as doing so would create an unfair advantage for the users of the original release of the game. Rest assured your comments have been added to our records for Mario Kart 7.
Sincerely,
Buddy Roemer

The problem is the GAF community code is out there in the internet, so it could've been a lurker.
Guess that explains why so many people pick that course and burn through it. I just got the game yesterday so I figured I missed a big shortcut in the track....
I think I might sell the game, now.
I think you are over exaggerating.I think I might sell the game, now.
http://bit.ly/yTRTnDWhat? How did this happen? It's hidden in email tags!
that'll teach emI think I might sell the game, now.
Stick to familiar communities, it doesn't have to be GAF's, or play locally. This is an irritating exploit, definitely, but by no means serious enough to warrant selling game, imo.I think I might sell the game, now.
I think the tinychat code is different than the neogaf code...curse you tinychat!
I think you are over exaggerating.

Someone should start spamming bogus GAF codes on and off the forum.I think the tinychat code is different than the neogaf code...
Well, it's one thing on top of a cake I don't seem to be liking all that much, to be honest. I think the way parts unlock is rather tedious and sporadic, I think almost every single unlockable character is terrible, and there are some noticeable omissions in the roster for me. Really, Metal Mario?
The courses are the only thing I actually like about the game. Perhaps Mario Kart isn't for me, as I haven't adored an entry since MK64.

its funny causes there's no onlineBuy a vita and enjoy Modnation Racers. I guarantee there won't be any online racing problems with that game!
I'll make sure to create a Maka Wuhu clone that replicates the exploit, then up-vote it.Buy a vita and enjoy Modnation Racers. I guarantee there won't be any online racing problems with that game!
