So what is everyones strangest moment in MKW? Something glitching out, something stupid you did, etc..
I had a couple of them today, which inspired this thread..
I went up the halfpipe around the sharp turn in Maple Treeway, I was trying to do a really short jump, and I ended up somehow going up in the air, landing while still facing up somehow, got the speed boost from it.. which sent me back off the half pipe.
Then, later on that same GP, Grumble Volcano.. third lap, I get passed near the end, get a red shell in the last item box in the course, I launch it coming off the high road right before the finish line.. I go over the booster and off the cliff.. and run into the red shell I just launched.. ended up second and only getting 2 star on it overall.. stupid Mirror Cup, ugh.
Also ended up screwing up that same turn in maple treeway once, jumped a little too much around the halfpipe, landed sideways and went right between the crack (that I didn't even know was there) between that and the section with the hay or whatever piles.
Funniest moment was dodging a blue shell (aimed at me) with a mushroom, after intentionally slowing down to get near the 3-6 people that were tailing me. I don't remember which map but I remember holding down the "look back" button. I wish I could have taped it or taken a picture.
Huge blue fireball bright enough to light my entire living room, less than 0.1 seconds behind, the sky raining half-smoking karts/bikes, Peach gunning the Wild Wing with that half-frenzied look of concentration on the road ahead, not daring to look back. Screenshot-worthy in every way.
i was on waluigi's stadium and on the last boost on the jump before the finish line i manage to twist around hit the barrier and about to go over the edge when i turn but i balance on the edge with no wheels on the ground so i'm stuck on the edge of a boost pad and came 12th
Dragging fake items and watching computers knock into them and falling off of Rainbow Road is always funny. =) I did that twice today.

I bought Mario Kart Wii on Wednesday, May 14, 2008. I got 100% of all gameplay modifications on Saturday, May 24, 2008. My total gameplay time was 38 hours and 2 minutes, of which about 6 hours was not related to the 100% gameplay completion. I'd have been done sooner if it wasn't for Guitar Hero. =P
On Rainbow road, on that infamous twist jump bit (Can't think of a name >.>) I hit the side of the ramp, then jumped up into the air, then the whole screen tilted and went back to usual and I somehow landed on the same ramp and ended up going backwards >.<
Same sort of thing has happened on Waluigi stadium in the halfpipe area, from crashing into pipes >_>
GCN Waluigi Stadium online - Tried to pull off the halfpipe on the left, I hit the pirahna, went up to hit the jump, hit the piranha again and ended up going backwards, went from 1st to 4th but I was racing as a guest so I didn't lose points.
Wario's Goldmine-I was winning and at the shortcut I go to it, a good enough distance from the whatever it's called bucket thing in front of me. So I go to the end and start to go and my kart hit the bucket thingy while it was in the air and I fell right down. Darn you glitches. >.<
