It blows my mind sometimes.

Maybe 150cc is so hard because, y'know, it's hard mode! Do these guys really want everything handed to them on a silver platter?

It's Trauma Center: New Blood all over again. If you suck, switch it to easy and try again. Don't be a princess and whine because you couldn't beat it on a harder difficulty. Some content should be designed for low-skill players and some should be deisgned for high-skill players.

 OH! Listen to the wise words of the golden monkey.

I learned that if a reviewer deducts points because it is too hard, add 1 point and that would be the real score for ACTUAL gamers than can use Manual Drift.

There's definately a learning curve with the wheel, but once I got used to it, I didn't find it too particularly difficult. It took me forever to unlock mirror mode, and I'm halfway through that now...

The wheel takes some practice. Only thing I can't control is the wheelie which I need the most. Good, addictive game ovarall.

I guess the game was a bit challenging at first on 150cc. But if after a week, if you can't get first place overall...then you're not very good. Sure, sometimes you get raped by items, but I managed to win first every time. The reviewers should have given the game more time, they definitely needed practice.

Getting first place in 150cc/Mirror mode is very easy. Getting a 3 star ranking on all tracks...now that's hardcore! Who ever said this game was for the casuals? Nintendo put the rankings in there for a reason.

It is hard! I have only 1 triple star rank. and I have unlocked 31 of 32 fast staff ghosts! Damn Shy Guy Beach

Either way reviewers would have docked it for not being hard enough. I think the problem isn't the game, but reviewers who don't think they need to spend much time with a game in order to cast an opinion on it.

I love the game personally. I'm always using the bikes and have stars in all cups... many three and two stars, but not all yet. That said, everything but the two/three stars by my name I've unlocked.

woot just unlock D-bowser god damn starcup 150cc getting star rank took forever ....the shy guy beach ghost I found easy it was that damn yoshi falls ghost that I couldn't beat took like 7tries. Now on to mirror mode star rankings ....

My strategy is to simply distance myself from the pack from the get go. It works well online and generally in single player, though the single player has hit me with 3 blue shells in a row (like tonight), though I didn't lose my lead it made it close.

The one map that drives me nuts online is Luigi's Circuit (and probably others, but they don't seem to come up as much) because it's so short and it's very difficult to get away from the pack. I manage, but it's easy to get dicked on that one fast.

 Omg I hate that god damn Luigi's Circuit online your first 1blue shell your last .....the level too damn short and small too get a major lead on. They should of included baby park from MK:DD would of made it chaotic . Thats the same thing I do get that big boost at start pop a wheelie and cya . Banana on ramps and narrow places first place secured even with 2-3 blue shells hitting you :).
