Forums

December 26th, 2008 (Goombs)

If you have noticed the forums have been changed to match the site and now uses Mybb instead of SMF. But don't worry; all your old logins still work and you can login as per usual. I hope you like the changes. There are some modifications I need to do such as changing the blue "new thread" images and integrating the forum with the site, such as showing members online and adding login forms to the homepage. If you have any ideas or suggestions on how to do this, please email me.

Clean Up

December 23rd, 2008 (Goombs)

If you stroll around the Mario Kart game sections, you should notice some minor changes. The image galleries now support the nice gallery effect (when you click on an image you can scroll through different images in the gallery) and there have been minor design changes with the layout of pages. Some broken images and links have been fixed also.

The Mario Kart Wii Courses section has also been updated, but not to the extend that I will be hoping to update it to. I am hoping to have some shortcut videos in that section. As I have no Wii video capture device (like I used for the MK64 and MKDD videos) I am unable to record shortcuts. If anyone has some shortcut videos they have developed please share them so that I can put them onto the page. It would be even better if you gave me the original clips of these shortcuts so I can chop and trim them into a shortcuts video myself.

Two days to go... If you haven't got Mario Kart Wii yet, lets hope Santa brings it to you; and if you haven't got a Wii yet, lets hope he brings a Wii and Mario Kart Wii.

Christmas Time

December 22nd, 2008 (Goombs)

I hope everyone is having a nice time off on their holidays. If you have any suggestions of what you want added to the site, please email me now as this holiday is only the spare time I will have for a long while.

I just thought I'd show you a funny video I saw on the net whilst strolling around GameVideos.com. I found it pretty amusing.

Still here

October 13th, 2008 (Goombs)

Just posting to say I'm still here. The lack of updates is because of the mass of work I've been handed. In the meantime why not look at the creativity some Mario Kart fan has produced: Mario Kart in the real world.

Mario Kart Wii Review

September 3rd, 2008 (Goombs)

I have finally spared the time to create a Mario Kart review (even though everyone probably has the game who has the Wii) but you may still like to read it for an unbias opinion. You heard that correct. Unbiased! I may own a Mario Kart website but I have critically reviewed the game stating its flaws and annoyances word for word. Check it out by clicking here.

Twilight Realm

August 24th, 2008 (Goombs)

I am happy to be affiliated with Twilight Realm. A website dedicated to offering official and exclusive Zelda wallpapers. I must say that Chanty's graphical skills are immense. Decorate your desktop by visiting the site here.

On another note sorry for the lack of updating the website. Don't worry; the site isn't dead.

Mario Kart Tastes Good...

July 22nd, 2008 (Goombs)
Cake

Have a look at this treat and awe at its craftmanship. This cake was created for a wedding as you should be able to tell by Mario and Peach at the top of the cake.

It features 3 classic Mario Kart tracks (can you name them all?) and the planet and castle was inspired by Super Mario Galaxy (and a certain Mario Kart track). You can view the full sized images by clicking on the picture. It would be a shame to eat something that looks so good.

Expect more updates to be made in the Mario Kart Wii section and on the overral site design soon. Also please visit the forums as they have been kicked back into action.

E3... Not Good.

July 18th, 2008 (Goombs)

I cannot hide my disappointment in this years Nintendo E3 conference. Lets face it. It was a catastrophe. The band including Shigsy playing the music was off key, and the woman talking about her snowboarding trip didn't receive one laugh, although she showed a fake smile all the way through. No hardcore titles were announced (maybe Animal Crossing for some); I hope Nintendo have some surprises in store. All the key titles have been developed already; Smash Bros., Mario, Mario Kart, Zelda and Metroid. The only one missing for me is Starfox.

Here is a video showed to me by my friend showing what everyone thought, whilst watching the conference.

Shuffling the Stadium

July 17th, 2008 (Goombs)

Some shuffling has been done and some designing errors have been fixed (mainly IE errors). However there are some more tidbits that I need to do. Some redecorating is likely to take place just to freshen the mood in the Stadium.

Re-opened

July 16th, 2008 (Goombs)

Sorry for any incovenience in the past days. Unfortunately the message boards have gone corrupt due to unforeseen circumstances, and some forum features were used on the site (i.e. polls, people online, news, comments). As a result the forums have been removed to keep the website in working order.
