Find it funny the biggest shortcut is on a track named "cheese" land. True to its name.

When you see Funky Kong on a motorcycle you know what’s about to happen.

You know it's going to get crazy when MK Wii is only fourth place

The days of Mario Kart Wii were a lawless land

Well they don’t call it “cheese land” for no reason lmao

Funny how one of the MKW shortcuts involves teleporting to a different part of the tract by falling into a warp pipe

Mk wii's Mushroom Gorge glitch where you climb all the mountain at the beginning of the race and gives you a whole lap and the Volcano one are 4 me the best

Mario kart ds does have unintended shortcuts that cut out large sections of the course. I think my favorite might be the one on rainbow road. Check out the time trials world record for it. It's really cool.

I had no idea that there existed shortcuts bigger than the Weathertenko. Certainly the most impressive shortcuts I've even seen in Mario Kart. I would get a real kick out someone being able to complete a lap in just 1 frame.

I really respect the fact that you performed yourself the shortcouts instead of using someone else videos

As a hardcore MKWii fan, I was kind of pissed off to see MKWii in 4th place, not 3rd or 2nd-until I saw Super Circuit.
I had NO idea Super Circuit was so broken!

8:25 when the game realizes that you are in the final lap after you win

On Mushroom Gorge (3:00) you can position yourself while in air so that you don’t need the second and third mushroom, and on Wario’s Gold Mine (4:22) you can bounce on the pipe through the bridge.

It’s interesting how stable half the Mario karts are and then you get to Wii and N64, with almost an Ultra Shortcut per course and then SNES and Gba just being ultra horseshit with their race checkpoints

@beastbro9823 5 years ago

That's not true for Mario Cart Ds, in the very least there are a couple of skips on rainbow road

1:11 That timing with the music is the most beautiful thing I have seen all week.
