I wanted to make sure Dolphin was working after shifting Emu Deck over to a new Drive, so i tested it with Mario Kart Wii.
Mario Kart Wii is one of the few games i still own my original disk for that still works. Though i have much fonder memories of MK64 (through the Wii VC ironically enough), this one is still one of my favorites due to how chaotic it can get. Not to mention the Inclusion of Waluigi and Funky Kong is awesome. Never have i ever wanted to drive as an ape with sunglasses more than i have playing this game. Not to mention the retro track collection is pretty solid IMO.
I took this screenshot on Mario Circuit after getting my ass handed to me by a Ghost Baby. Poor Waluigi deserved better than this.
I also did Sherbert land, and though my time was way worse than when i raised the ghost child, Waluigi was happy, which is all that matters to me.
Shortly after though, I sadly lost to Daisy though after a race in Coconut Mall as Waluigi isn't allowed an ounce of joy in this world apparently.
How do you feel about MK Wii compared with 8 or 8 Deluxe?
With Wii vs. 8/8 Deluxe i feel like they're very samey. Not that it's a bad thing. When i pop in Mario Kart i usually just want to play basic Mario Kart without much work, so the Switch usually wins out because i don't need to hunt down 3 different cables and worry about the disc getting scratched lol. Granted, Wii has it's own unique things too it. But it's very rare for me personally that i want to play with those unique things over just normal Mario Kart.
I still have a lot of Nostalgia for Wii though because it's the one i grew up playing, so if both 8 and Wii are just as easy to setup (such as with Emulation), i'll usually go for Wii.
