I'm going online now - I'll see if I can see you and report back. edit *SuperPhillip is still the only name showing as confirmed for me. I remember this problem with Mario Kart and Dr Mario too - I think both users have to be online at the same time for a certain period of time to get each...

Some of the tracks have a sliding rail that you can rotate your bot around to pick up floating pieces of a sandwich. If you get all the pieces, you get ***SUPER SANDWICH!***. I'm in for tonight. I am PST, so I wouldn't be able to join until about 7:30PST/10:30EST when the kids go down for bed...

I added Tuesday and Wednesday of this week for me but I'm not sure which one I'll be available for yet. Either way it won't be until 7:30-8:00 pm PST. Crunchewy - I'll add you the next time I'm on. I've raced SuperPhillip online a few times but it doesn’t look like anyone else has confirmed on...

This actually helped a lot - thanks! It hadn't occured to me that the image of the Wii Wheel was doing anything other than showing you the basic motion to perform. There's a pretty good chance I will be online with the game for a few hours Friday night starting around 8pm PST. More people need...

And he is so cheap that he will probably have his uncle help him beat it.

I've found that a short, sharp 45-90 degree turn and then resetting the controller back to "0" positions works really well. For multiple turns I just go back to "0" and snap the remote each time.

Does anyone have any tips for red bars when using heavy bots? The light bots I can get the rhythm no problem, but most of the time with heavy bots I miss every spin no matter how closely I match the rotation of the bot around the bar or the sound. I use the sound on light bots and nail the spin...

I actually prefer it without the wheel, but that could be because I got used to Excite Truck without the wheel. With all the tilting and minor angle adjustments in the air I find the wheel gets in the way more than helps. The difference really is pretty subtle though, and you can try it with the...

Going online now if any of you want to beat me... How do I race against one of you if you are in a normal online race? Do I just go to friends and if your name is highlighted press 2 or something? I can't test because none of the three of you on my list appear to be online right now.

I thought I was going to be free, but it looks like I had plans that got moved from Saturday to Friday. Which means I am now free Saturday night. wjhard63 - at first I felt ripped-off when I saw the same location and similar tracks, but I quickly realized the key word there is similar. I now...

I just jumped on CAG to post this same thing! Doomed, do you want to also add a spot for console codes on your list, or should I just ask anyone who seems to be playing this actively if they want to exchange console codes? SuperPhillip? Want to beat my 297-star Bronze Kilimanjaro? console code...

As SuperPhillip said, no lag at all. I also prefer this to Mario Kart - I like Mario Kart and played the heck out of it and still play online occassionally, but Excite Bots is just so much more... fun.

Did you beat it while you called Juno? I'm really in support of you beating it, given your initial level of concern.

I really like that in this and Excite Truck you at least get a star for crashing. It makes my son (and me) feel like he's winning even when he is doing really poorly. Although after just 30 minutes yesterday he was earning four times as many stars as he did his first time playing.

Cool! It would be great to see price fluctuations/sales on these. Unrelated - no one here really talked about this game except to make fun of the idea (which I think I participated in), but it ranks really highly on metacritic. Has anyone played Bonsai Barber...

I'll add you guys tonight - I should be able to play for a bit and definitely on Friday. The first race I did online last night I bet 0 stars and at the end of the race I had the same stars even though I came in next-to-last. I think you can essentially make any race an "unranked" race this...

Yup. Jerk. What about me? Does anyone know how WFC Friend races work? Is it just the two of you, or can it be set up like Mario Kart where you both go join a larger race together?

Drive like an idiot to get stars. The crazier you drive without crashing into rocks and trees, the more stars you will get. I guess you can try to focus on tree runs or specific skills, but since you're just getting a feel for the controls I'd say you're probably better off just going as fast as...

Just got done playing for about 30 minutes with my six-year-old. We play both Excite Truck and Mario Kart together and this was much more like Excite Truck than Mario Kart. Which is good for me because I prefer Excite Truck. Later tonight I will start my own profile and start unlocking stuff...

But did you beat it?
