As I said in the forum thread, we're hoping to make these events a more regular occurrence, for this and other games. Don't worry if you can't make it to this one, as it should be the first of many.

Damn, I need to get my practice in before this. I've played a few games with Greg the past couple of days and he kicked my butt! Is this race or battle?

Edit: Nevermind! I should have known it was the same group the was posted in another thread. 'Balloon Battle' it is then!

This sounds cool. I already added the code to my game, (before I even read this article), so I'm good to go if I am available to play. It'd be great if it was a regular occurrence like it is hoped to be. (I would tend to think that it would be a once a month thing if it does.) But so far, (aside from a few drawbacks like not being able to set up races that aren't in the GP, unless it's unlocked later because I loved being able to do that), the game is great thus far. I'm glad I got it.

Just an FYI - We're going to make another community for racing, too, and if anyone wants to come up with any other fun variants, we can make more communities as well.

Good to hear. I don't know why but I only liked the battle mode in MK64. Is there any limit to how many communities you can be in?

KITT 10K · « **Reply #7 on:** December 05, 2011, 10:59:47 PM »

How about one with specific conditions, like Mii only characters and/or specific karts? That could put an interesting twist on it.

NWR_insanolord · « **Reply #8 on:** December 05, 2011, 11:31:37 PM »

Feel free to start your own communities with whatever rules you like. We started a thread in the Handheld Discussion section of the forums specifically for community codes, so you can post them there with a description of the rules.

Halbred · « **Reply #9 on:** December 05, 2011, 11:32:19 PM »

I'm hoping (praying) that I am able to connect to all of you, which has been an issue with past 3DS games.

KITT 10K · « **Reply #10 on:** December 06, 2011, 02:03:19 AM »

(If anyone is interested), my friend code is 3351-4054-7089. This way we can race in Mario Kart 7 and play other games too. (May take me a day or two to approve ya but if I see a "friend request" I will most likely add ya. I don't have anyone on it right now so I figured this may get me a few people to add to it.)

I just saw this after I made a NWR racing community. I posted the code in the Community Code thread, use it if you like. I didn't mean to jump the shark though.

SilverQuilava · « **Reply #13 on:** December 08, 2011, 09:48:08 PM »

I got a surprise game today. Looks like I might come to this event saturday.

Seacor · « **Reply #14 on:** December 09, 2011, 11:22:18 PM »

Are you also going to get together in the NWR Grand Prix 150 community?

NWR_insanolord · « **Reply #15 on:** December 10, 2011, 06:42:57 AM »

Yes. That community hadn't been created when I wrote the article and I forgot to add it. I'll do that now.

UncleBob · « **Reply #16 on:** December 10, 2011, 02:49:38 PM »

Who wants to do a Double Dash night? Still waiting to try that one again...

NWR_insanolord · « **Reply #17 on:** December 10, 2011, 07:48:20 PM »

Remember everyone, this is starting in a little over an hour. Make sure to add the community codes in the main post to play, one for racing and one for Battle Mode. We can coordinate things in this thread here.

Caterkiller · « **Reply #18 on:** December 10, 2011, 09:01:27 PM »

Alright you goons bring it on!

TheFleece · « **Reply #19 on:** December 10, 2011, 09:04:16 PM »

I'm having trouble connecting to the 150cc Community. Anyone else having issues?

Is it just taking a long time? That's what it's doing for me, and I think it does that because there are relatively few of us so the wait for an open race is longer than it would be for a random match.

EDIT: Now I got a connection error that booted me to the main menu. I still think it may be what I said.

EDIT 2: Connected on the third try, but I seem to be in a room with no one else. Somebody come play with me please.

Seacor · « **Reply #21 on:** December 10, 2011, 09:26:50 PM »

3 of us are in the grand Prix community

NWR_insanolord · « **Reply #22 on:** December 10, 2011, 09:44:54 PM »

Yeah, I got into a game, played a couple races and got disconnected.

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #23 on:** December 10, 2011, 09:52:29 PM »

BNM - 2
Striker Obi - 0

then we got disconnected.

2 Balloon Battle games (1 on 1) and now no one is in the lobby.
I'll give another few minutes and then I'm out.

edit:

Just played 2 more balloon Battles before getting disconnected.
This time with Johnnyboy & Ohhboy

Johnny - 1.5
BNM - .5
Ohhboy - 0

error code 003something

TheFleece · « **Reply #24 on:** December 10, 2011, 10:43:42 PM »

The wait to join a race is very long. The few races I was in were fun, but I'm done for tonight. If you ever see me online feel free to join me for a few races.
