Mario Kart DS Tourney

The Home of Handhelds is hosting what they are calling the "BIGGEST Mario Kart DS Tournament." The competition will consist of 192 users (considering they get enough sign-ups) spanning 380 races in all. Follow the link for registration details and be sure to polish up those snaking skills.

"I'm a gonna win!"

[Thanks, David]

1. I don't even want to put myself through the stress of snaking that hard...even in normal worldwide matches I get adrenaline overloads near the end of some matches...and my hands shake and what not.

2. I'm all about this. Finally got triple-star ranking, baby! And 8227 according to marthx's Ranking page.

3. I would love to take part in something like this but the problem is that I don't play any one game long (or well) enough to take part in one of these competitions. I was almost good enough at the original Unreal Tournament back in the day but sometimes I would go up against folks who I didn't even ever see before they fragged me 30 times. If they ever have a Tetris DS tourney, I might stand a chance.

If I took part in something like this M-kart tourney, my ds would be destroyed in the process.

5. Why dont Nintendo just take out the online function from Mario Kart DS ?

6. No way will I enter without snaking being allowed. That’s like a Street Fighter tournament without hadokens. If you haven’t mastered the technique then you don’t have as much skill as those who have, and thus you deserve to lose with your inferior skills. Have fun playing in your little tournament, sorry I can’t make it.
