Mario Kart Wii Tournament Information and Rules • When You Arrive at The Mario Kart Wii Tournament Information and Rules When you arrive at the tournament, you must check in with the tournament organizers. Tournament sign-in will be open from approximately 1:15 – 1:25 PM. Walk-in registrants will be accepted only if pre-registrants have not arrived by 1:25 PM. No new registrations will be taken after 1:25 PM. We will begin the tournament once all players are signed in. Wiimotes , nunchuks and wheels will be provided. All players may remain for the entire tournament. Cheer your friends to victory! Trash talking is allowed, but no swearing or bad behavior. There will be prizes for the overall winner and for top finishers in the 3rd - 5th and 6th - 8th grade categories. Prizes will be Target gift cards. The tournament may end early. Tournament rules Players may pick any character. Players also may switch characters between matches. Races will all be run as VS. There are four available cups with 4 courses each for the tournament. The cups and courses will be randomly selected for each match. Available cups: Flower, Banana, Shell and Mushroom. There will be three qualifying rounds. Qualifying rounds will be 3 or 4-player races. Players will go into the game’s sudden death matches if tied at the end of a race. Players will be assigned numbers at registration and will be matched randomly. Players 5 or more minutes late to any round will automatically take a game loss. During qualifying rounds, players will earn points based on how they finish (40 for 1st place, 30 for 2nd place, etc). At the end of the 3 qualifying rounds, players with the top 16 scores will advance to the elimination rounds. If we are running behind, or if we begin with less than 16 players, only the top 8 players will advance. If multiple players are tied at the end of the qualification rounds, tiebreaker match(es) will be held. Tiebreaker matches will follow the same rules as the qualifying round matches. Final rounds will be two players versus each other, seeded single bracket elimination. Seeding will be done based on qualifying round scores. The scorekeeper will determine when a match begins. When a match is ended, players must leave the score screen up for the scorekeeper to record the results. Passing this screen will invalidate the match and all players forfeit. All normal Mario Kart play is allowed, including using short cuts and teaming up. Tournament organizers have the final say in all decisions. .

  • Global Sales of Nintendo's Wii Top 50 Million 26 March 2009
    Global sales of Nintendo's Wii top 50 million 26 March 2009 (AP) -- Japanese game maker Nintendo Co. said Thursday global sales of its popular Wii video game console have topped 50 million since it went on sale worldwide in late 2006. Nearly 50 percent of the total sales of the Wii machine were in the United States and Canada, with Europe accounting for about 40 percent and Japan taking much of the rest, said the maker of Pokemon and Super Mario games. The Wii hit stores first in the United States in November 2006, and went on sale in Japan and Europe in early December of the same year. The Wii game console has quickly become a smash hit, in large part due to its unique wireless controller. The wand-like controller is equipped with motion sensors that allow users to control game action by jabbing and swinging it through the air. Wii games, including "Wii Fit," "Wii Play," and "Mario Kart Wii," have all become global best sellers. Apart from the Wii console, Nintendo has sold more than 100 million Nintendo DS portable handheld game machines worldwide in just four years and 3 months - a milestone reached at the quickest pace for any video game console. Compared to Sony, which has long appealed to hard-core gamers with its PlayStation series, Nintendo has scored hits with easier-to-play games that attract newcomers to gaming, including the elderly. Nintendo's DS comes with a touch panel, making it possible to play some games without dealing with complex button-pushing.

  • Thank You Nintendo Finish.Pdf
    Dear Nintendo, If you didn’t exist I would not have met the love of my life. You’re probably thinking, “So you bumped into someone and realised you both liked Nintendo, who doesn’t? Cool story…” Not even close. The year was 2008, a year I’m sure many hold dear in their hearts. The year Mario Kart Wii was released. I don’t know about yours, but my days were filled with holding that wheel (of the plastic kind). MKWii was basically the air I breathed, I still remember my very first online race as crisp as a freshly cut lawn (Grumble Volcano before people realised that glitch existed). After playing the other Mario Kart games over the years against item-lucky computers (and the rare actual person), this blew my mind. However this is barely relevant to the story. The point is, people. There were people out there, just like you and me, casually sitting on the couch with a wheel imprint (perhaps 3.5% of the racing population) left in our hands and soul. Many hours (days, weeks, months), races (thousands, easily), blood sweat and tears went into this game and we all got something out of it I’m sure; fun, frustration, and friends. Living in that piece of country people may often forget even exists (if it weren’t for the fact we use kangaroos as transport, especially after we realised emus don’t fly nor reverse), the option to play continental was such a blessing as we would often bump into the same people and you’d have that unspoken connection.

  • Mario Kart Is Hard
    Mario Kart is Hard Jeffrey Bosboom1, Erik D. Demaine1, Adam Hesterberg1, Jayson Lynch1, and Erik Waingarten2? 1 MIT Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 32 Vassar St., Cambridge, MA 02139, fjbosboom,edemaine,achester,[email protected] 2 Department of Computer Science, Columbia University, 1214 Amsterdam Avenue, New York, NY 10027, [email protected] Abstract. Nintendo's Mario Kart is perhaps the most popular racing video game franchise. Players race alone or against opponents to finish in the fastest time possible. Players can also use items to attack and defend from other racers. We prove two hardness results for generalized Mario Kart: deciding whether a driver can finish a course alone in some given time is NP-hard, and deciding whether a player can beat an opponent in a race is PSPACE-hard. 1 Introduction Mario Kart is a popular racing video game series published by Nintendo, starting with Super Mario Kart on SNES in 1992 and since adapted to eleven platforms, most recently Mario Kart 8 on Wii U in 2014; see Ta- ble 1. The series has sold over 100 million game copies, and contains the best-selling racing game ever, Mario Kart Wii [Gui14]. The games fea- ture characters from the classic Nintendo series Super Mario Bros. and Donkey Kong. In this paper, we analyze the computational complexity of most Mario Kart games, showing that optimal gameplay is computationally intractable. Our results follow a series of recent work on the computational complex- ity of video games, including the broad work of Forisek [For10] and Vigli- etta [Vig14] as well as the specific analyses of classic Nintendo games [ADGV15].
