  • 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.
    Count us down, Lakitu.

    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.

      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/

    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.

    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.

    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.
