Mario Kart online
I eventually tried Nintendo Internet play on Saturday morning outside Electronic Boutique in Melbourne central.
At first it couldn’t organise a game, because it couldn’t find anyone to play.
Bit disappointing.
After waiting and then retrying I managed to play a couple of Japanese (judging by their names) and a guy called “Jeremy”.
It was a bit laggy at times so some tight “turbo boost” corners were quite hard to achieve.
So in the end it fealt like I was playing some really good computers, as we couldn’t chat afterwards. :(
Shame they couldn’t see my jumping up and down breaking (again) my 5 year old Tevas. I guess I should buy a new pair although I would prefer an Israeli made sandal from a company I’ve forgotten the name of.
Nintendo should have a system for editing your profiles via browser, so you get to know your enemy better. I tried to put my 13 character email address as my nick. Slightly too long. Doh.
