Players must use Mushroom Boosts wisely in this standard style race. Takes turns sharply, boost off ramps and power slide like crazy to get your best overall time.


Try it out yourself on November 1st – November 10th!

The goal is to drive your way through all 8 of the Ring Gates that have been setup. You’ll need to have a good grasp on power sliding and making tight turns to master this one.

Try it out yourself on October 15th – October 25th!

That is apparently wrong because NOJ has updated with info on the next Mario Kart Wii WiFi Tournament!

Taking place in the Gamecube Mario Circuit players must race for their best time. What’s the catch? Lots more enemies surrounding the course. I have a feeling they might mess with ya just a bit…

Try it out yourself on October 1st – October 10th!

We ran into some troubles last time, but you can finally check out the slightly altered show design! Big thanks to BowieZ on arranging a theme for The Fold’s intro. This episode is all about Mario Kart Wii’s WiFi Tournament #33. It may be the week Nick finally wins an episode again…

This time players will be racing laps in the Cookie Land battle arena. The race is made more interesting due to players having to use a Motor Bike. You’ll also need to watch out for the Goombas walking around!


Tournament begins September 1st – September 10th (2009).

This time the challenge is intense due to even more hazards in Bowser’s Castle. Can you avoid more lava, bats and speed boosts while racing for your best time in 3 laps?

Tournament begins August 15th and ends August 25th!

This one is pretty cool and different from the usual rules. Players must grab the items and take out 30 of the Crabs that roam Shy Guy Beach. How fast can you complete the Tournament in? Let me know in the comments below!
