Tips and Strategies

The best tip I can give you to get better is to play, and play often, but if you are a true Kart lover, this is no problem.

I believe that the best way to turn corners is with a rapid tapping of the "B" Button. It slows your speed just enough to make it around without wiping out, but doesn't diminish you speed completely (Like letting go of the "B" Button would).

When you acquire a banana peel or a green turtle shell (That you don't intend to shoot), drop them in the middle of a straightaway. The computer players follow an almost exact path around each of the courses, usually heading for the center of the road on straightaways. Learn their paths and you can spin `em almost every time you drop something.

If you are playing a two player game, and the other player acquires a RED turtle shell, here are some ways to dodge it.

  • Try to keep something in between you at all times. If they shoot it, try to   turn a corner or get a pipe (or another player) between you and the shell.
  • Get a banana peel or a green turtle shell, and when they shoot the red,   drop it and try to stay in front of it. Hope the shell hits it.
    • Try to make a sound like a turtle shell would when it is fired, or try to   scare the other person and hope that they shoot they're shell (It's funny if   they do shoot it).
