I'm actually using A for gas and L for items. In MKDS, I use A for gas and X for items. I think it's just the size of the system just isn't enough for me to hold it for that, along with the shapes of the buttons.Inazuma wrote: By the way, you may already be doing it, but I suggest using Y for gas and L for items.

Re: Mario Kart 7 - RB Online Meetup Thread
That's why Y is better than A. It gives you a little more of a grip on the tiny 3DS. I use the Hori MK7 Handle controller as well. I really like it.YoshiEgg25 wrote:I'm actually using A for gas and L for items. In MKDS, I use A for gas and X for items.

Re: Mario Kart 7 - RB Online Meetup Thread
After playing a bunch of online MK7 with my Hori Handle controller, I was out of the house today and played some MK without it. This was my first time using Y and L without the handle controller, and holy shit, it was terrible. I couldn't hold L and steer at all. I ended up being forced to go back to using A and X, which hurts like hell.
Long story short, Mario Kart 7 is "unplayable" without the handle controller, for me at least. It has completely spoiled me.

Re: Mario Kart 7 - RB Online Meetup Thread
How bout right now? I am tired of trying to get 3 stars offline. It's a constant roll of the dice until the game decides to give it up.swiftzx wrote:So is anyone up for some MK7 action tomorrow? I was thinking around 9pm est.
*edit*
I will try to be there tomorrow. 6pm PST for me.

I'll try to be on tomorrow, but no guarantees. I'm having my wisdom teeth removed so I may be too screwed up to play.

Re: Mario Kart 7 - RB Online Meetup Thread
It was fun racing you, CJ.
Re: Mario Kart 7 - RB Online Meetup Thread
Same to you man, though I'm sorry I couldn't be more of a challenge for you.Inazuma wrote:It was fun racing you, CJ.
I have to say though, I died a little inside when I screwed myself on Waluigi Pinball, and your Toad flew by me, laughing maniacally at my failure.
Seriously though, it was fun, and you're a challenging opponent.
Good luck with the operation man. I'm sure I'll be having to go through the same thing in the near future. Can't be fun.YoshiEgg25 wrote: Added ya, bro.

Hope to see you online tomorrow.

Re: Mario Kart 7 - RB Online Meetup Thread
Picked this up today. Give me a couple days to learn the tracks and unlock stuff and I'll be ready to race.
Maybe now Nintendo will acknowledge Metroid has a fanbase?
