- This is footage of Mario Kart Wii Online recorded the night before Nintendo's wifi servers were shutdown the following morning. Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection was Nintendo's first big venture into the online space and lasted almost a good 9 years. There are still other ways in playing this game online, but as of this video's posting, the original nintendo wifi servers are now disconnected.

And during those final moments,
hackers turned off their exploits,
ragers lowered their voices,
and everyone sat down for those final 3 laps together.
It was not time to win, it was time to smile. It was time to make one more lasting memory, one that everyone would carry into their adulthood. One that no one would forget.

I never played it online, i envy you guys :(
I can only play it on PC if i have a Wii?
My mom said it was because of the thunder that was going on at that moment. I still remember how I cried because I wanted to play so bad. And I didn’t even know that it would be the last time in 9 years. Can’t believe it’s 9 years ago. The nostalgia
there are custom servers called wiimmfi
Yeah there are all you have to do is connect your Wii to the Internet using a hotspot or your Internet and change your DNS settings using yt tutorials
Change your dns in wii settings to thst of wimmfi and continue with your nostalgia

At least we have wiimmfi to play mario kart ds and wii online and mario kart 7 online originals servers. (why i have a wii mini? THAT is depressing)
"Disconnect from nintendi WFC?"
NO PLEASE NO
And at that moment... it was the last time we saw Mario Kart online...
But wiimmfi
I remember playing together with my father this day.
We played for one last time, then had a disconnect. Both of us knew this was the end. We resorted to offline.
Until... almost seven years later WE RETURNED!
I remember playing Mario Kart wii with one of my friend that’s in South Korea online and we played on the last Day of Nintendo WFC and we still play on Wiimmfi
And yes I do have my South Korean friend’s Social Media

@@MULM thanks
the thing i like about the game is how theres always something even for waiting for a race to start theres still music and attention to detail
Mk8d also does that
I wish that i was there on that day before it shut down..
Same I hardly ever got a chance to play
Wimmfi is not the same
Olan Rich I was there I just had no idea what was happening 😂
Olan Rich
You can still play it online now using a patcher
I wish it never shut down
“As the final minutes ticked, I had to get one more race in, with the friends whom I would never see or race again..”
Even though we have had misfortune, this community is so strong we just made our own, very accessible, full server.
Honestly disconnecting WFC was a huge mistake, even thought you can bring it back. But still :/
Guys u can always play online at MKW and other games : Check Wiimmfi
gamespy (the service that hosts WFC) got shutdown so wfc got shutdown
there’s actually a new custom server that has hundreds of players everyday, it’s called wiimmfi.
Devil753 we know
Nintendo wasn't making money off it and they wanted people to buy newer Mario Kart's so really they had to reason to keep it up, sad it was shut down though.
It feels like I was playing this just last week. Man time flies
Stw3art14 true
i felt like i played this yesterday, wait i did play this yesterday my bad
Last time I played this was 2014
I just finished the game I have all items now.
This was the most fun I’ve ever had in a game. I wish I could get it back.
You can with Wiimifi

Man, I enjoyed this so much
man even on the final day in a 5000 lobby there were still sweaty funky kong flame runners… never change, mario kart wii players :)
The way he closes it makes me wanna cry
Ahh, man. Remember bumming the neighbor's WiFi at the time because we didn't have any ourselves. The memories this brings back.
God, that slow click at the end. That hesitation. The knowledge that this is probably the last time you'll ever see that menu again. Waiting for a second, admiring the globe in the background, before finally pressing Yes and disconnecting for the last time.

5:54 Literally about to win 1st place
5:57 Bullet Bill: I’m about to end this man whole career
I remember if I was getting bored with my other games as a kid I could always count on the WFC and online section of Mario kart. I remember the day they disconnected the WFC. I went online, tried to anyway, and the message came up. I exited the online section and tried again, but then I told my dad, “there’s something on the wii, what is it?” Or something like that. He read the message on the screen and told me I wasn’t able to play it, I can’t remember too much. It didn’t really mean much to me because I was young and didn’t understand how the internet really worked. I left it for around a week or so, the same message came up on my TV. I think I knew then I wasn’t going to be able to play online. Looking back at the WFC makes me think of the hours you could spend on Mario kart, on and offline. To hear about the shop channel and the mii channel being removed makes me wonder why they’re doing it. Rest in peace WFC, and soon to be Mii channel and shop channel in 2019. You will always be remembered in our minds.
Satisfying ASMR Vidoes omg yesssss. Rip wfc. 🙏🙏🙏
Satisfying ASMR Vidoes mhhhhmmm
The best rainy days were spent on the World Wide Web of the wii
Why they Will take out the Mii channel? Is offonline! No like the Wii shop that is online..
I think they’re only shutting down the Wii Shop Channel. Whatever the case, I’m upset.
I'm still sad that they turned it off... I know, the other custom servers are still on but it's not the same like back then...
I was so young, I didn’t play online that much in Mario Kart Wii.
Me too.
I was young, but I played the heck outta that stuff.
I'm here 8 years later... I played Nintendo WIFI Connection Races when I was 3 & 4, My Uncle came upstairs and told me WFC for Mario Kart Wii was shutting down, But, Mario Kart Wii online is still alive, Thanks to Wiimmfi and NEW Wifi Connection
oh the good old days. there will never be a Nintendo experience that captures as much joy again. the one shutting down was the end of the world for me.
Shut up you discord weeb no one cares about your wet dream of wanting Nintendo Wi-Fi back just pay for a NSO subscription and stop living in the past
I'm so glad that Wiimmfi exists!!
So we can revive those old days of mkw :3
Yes... But the essence is gone
I remember the last online race i ever had before modding the game. It was a simple 1v1 against a random person on a random dsi page. Good memories
Back in elementary school my bus came at around 8:10. I remember sometimes getting up early to play WiFi races on MKWii while eating breakfast until i left for the bus and surprisingly enough people were playing it at 7am. Good times. Just as I graduated elementary school the Wii online races were discontinued and my heart sank, but got MK8 as a graduation present. I used to think they discontinued it just because of Mario Kart 8, but not exactly. I am an incoming senior in high school now and the online races on Mario Kart Wii still hold a place in my heart. May these times live on.
It actually got discontinued since Gamespy got shut down.
@@thefrogge interesting

You can still play online
It's completely sad to see it officially go away. It was my very first time of online multiplayer experience and I was 10 years old at that time. Even then, I have gotten the main idea of playing with others online. *sad woomy*
I doubt that the new children in 2010s are having first time online multiplayer experience with Splatoon 2 and Tetris 99.

True, but still.
Nintendo did this 9 days before Mario Kart 8's release. They wanted people to stop playing home console Mario Kart and buy the new Mario Kart and play that (it's a typical selling technique). Soon they will take down Mario Kart 7's online.
Henry Woerner, I meant they took down WFC for Mario Kart Wii. Many games on the 3DS, Wii U and Switch are still on Nintendo Network (or WFC). I just meant MKWii.
BLOCKY STUPID DUDE, yup unfortunately, Nintendo is one of those companies that overprice unnecessary things and pissing off their customers. The only Nintendo consoles I own is a Wii and and a couple of old DSi Xls. The rest are just online computer emulators (like the Wii U and 3DS) where I can enjoy games like Mario Kart 8 at a half decent quality on PC. I was looking online at was at GameStop earlier and I couldn't find a Switch less than $430. I would be surprised if Nintendo started pricing online for the Switch.
BLOCKY STUPID DUDE, Nintendo is the king of overpricing. Of course they'll take down the free network for the Wii U and force everybody to pay for the Switch network. You're absolutely right on that one.
BLOCKY STUPID DUDE, Nintendo will do anything just to get money, even sell the WFC. At least we have Wiimmfi, which replaces WFC and works just as well. It's for no-longer online consoles like the DS and Wii and (or PC emulators) and it works just as well, I highly recommend it. wiimmfi.de/
It sucks because all of the people who own old consoles can't keep the experience. As a Wii and DSI owner, it's just really sad.
this is like a distant memory
Dad : Why are you crying?
Me :
😂😭
9 years ago today... wiimfi just isn't the same
3:46 off to a great start
amazing piece of history. can't believe it's almost been 10 years
that guy LeBest is a total hacker wtf hahahaha
I grew up with no technology. My family didn’t make enough to afford it. No internet, no cable TV, nothing.
The first console I’d ever received was a Nintendo Wii on my 12th birthday, with Mario Kart included.
I played the hell out of Mario Kart. It was my only and favorite game, after all. I began racing my own ghosts for fun after three starring my second license.
Sometimes, I look back at all of the games of the golden era I never got to play, like Halo, COD in its prime, or PS classics like Little Big Planet. Sometimes I feel like throwing up if I think about it too much.
Wii online just hurts.
3:47 i like how someone just exploded
I wish more online games had more of a styles like this game's online menu
I'm so thankful that dedicated fans have been able to make this possible to this day.
I love how this is in my recommended its like yt wants me to see it again
We love mr. Bean for creating wiimfi
And this was back someone could win using the TINY TITAN

@@kokobeans3339 Otherwise known in the MK community as “Mario-Karted” 🥲
This was the last day. Getting Mario Karted would've been the least of my worries knowing that he servers would just shut down like that.
I’m trying to spread the word, there is something called CTGP. What it is, is it is a modded version of Mario kart wii that adds 200+ custom tracks along with the original tracks and it has custom servers that allow you to play online. There are also lots of other mods, like 200cc, item rain, where it rains items that u can pick up or get hit by, and lots of other things. It really is amazing and I play it every day. There are even still some twitch streamers and youtubers that are actually rather popular, like 100k+ subs on youtube. I definitely recommend checking it out and watching a tutorial on how to get it.
Oh man, the memories. So nostalgic. I used to be so good lol 😝
22:53 that was polite of them to just let you win
respect if you still play this
I only played online on my DS and 3DS, not on the Wii because we thought we couldn't play online with an hacked wii...
I caught up to that though thanks to wiimmfi, dolphin emulator, and my real wii's nand. Oh and a Dolphinbar of course...
I played this game since I was 6 and I still have the game at my grandmas house!
And this is why I love Nintendo!😌
*The next match might have 12 players.*
😂😂😂😂😂
18 days after my 6th birthday. Damn. I loved the few competitions I was actually physically able to do before it ended .
I have never been able to play in the Nintendo WFC😢
I was 6 years old when it got shut down as well. 4 months older
When it got shut down I was 5. Sad thing was I discovered the online a week before it shut down 🥲
I hope that Mario Kart 9 brings back a ton of tracks from this game. I also hope they brimg back the feature of being able to pick whatever track you want whenever you want online. That's why Mario Kart 8's online isn't good
Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection shutdown: peaceful, and sad.
Nintendo Network Shutdown: what's Nintendo network?
Nah I grew up playing on Nintendo network. I hopped on a couple 3ds games like mk7 last night and they were all full of people getting their last rounds. Lasted one hour racing until my game crashed forcing me to restart. So in reality Nintendo wifi connection and Nintendo network were the same thing it just depends what you grew up with
Well good thing wiimmfi and ctgp online is a thing.
I remember playing this game with my cousin every night in 2012 man. Where did the time go
RIGHT OUT THE WINDOW
As it's still sad to see it go, we now have wiimifi to bring us back to childhood
YEA
I HAVE NINTENDO WIIMIFI SUCKER
It’s probably for the best though because people would either stop playing it or the servers would be filled with hackers. Not only that, the wii was going to be 10 years old in 2016 and gamespy (the online service that powers WiFi connections on the wii) was shutting down around when this video took place so they had to close it as well
2012 was probably my year for this
This made me sad back then, but now in days it is nothing but funky
Never celebrate too soon 5:57
5:06 F for rosalina
i will miss the days of playing online i know we have found ways to patch this up and play online but it just wont be the same anymore now it feels that we are in hiding doing stuff like this Nintendo has moved on to switch we have to except
I know this is old, but, thank you. 🥺😭❤

Me and my brother were addicted to this ! whenever he was 1st he'd stop on the finish line so I could get the points, good times lol
i know this video is old but do you know they are custom servers that allow you to still play wii games online?
What do you mean?
Olan Rich I mean you can still play Wii games online using custom servers.
how do you do custom servers?
Olan Rich It depends what games you would play online on the wii?
Mario Kart Wii
I miss playing online, which was why I played this game 24/7 now the game isn't nearly as fun.
Geez how long has it been since I last played this?
Damn.
I Allways Loved Playing On The Nintendo WFC Servers But When They Got ShutDown I Was So Sad But I Remembered That I Had CTGP So I Went On To See If They Had Servers, Which They Did So I Waited A Week And Then I Played Wiimfi For The Rest Of My Life
