I know this comment is 8 years late, but thank you so much for this! I never would've gotten past 1-2 stars without this, because most guides I found were incorrect.
Just 100%’d this game for the first time last night, well almost. I have Golds with at least 1 star on every cup, all Expert Staff Ghosts unlocked. All vehicles and characters unlocked except for Mii Outfit B because you have to beat the normal staff ghosts by a certain margin to unlock it. I’ll go back and try to get it soon.
GravityDonut That’s true. In Mario Kart 7, there could be anywhere between two and four 3 Star-ranked players in a single race online. Not to mention all the two and one star players as well, making up at least six players of the entire race.
The rewarding feel on mkw wii is much better in my opinion. If you are seen with 3 stars online on mkw your seen as good whereas thats not the same in 8 and 7
Getting a 3 star rank on every cup on every cc on this game is so fucking hard. And that's what i love about it. On 8 you just have to get first place on every race. Now ofcource that's no easy task but on Wii, you can get first place on every race and not even get 2 stars!
Not to show off, but I managed to get 3 stars in all the cups of all categories (50cc, 100cc, 150cc and Mirror). The truth took me several weeks. First, what you need to get the 3 stars is to get 60 points. These are some tips that I give you to achieve 3 stars (according to the rules): 1. Use a motorcycle preferably. It is high speed compared to a kart! Preferably use the bullet bike (for lightweight characters), the mach bike (for mediumweightcharacters) and Bowser Bike (for heavyweight characters). These are the fastest bikes for each group of characters. 2. Use your items (shells and bananas) defensively. You only have to resort to having your items in the back of your character to avoid the shells that come from behind. Don't try to use your items to attack (only in case your rivals are close to you). 3. Dodge POW blocks. To reduce the effect of a POW block, you just have to shake the Wii control at the moment of the earthquake caused by the POW block. If you do it right, a blue circle will appear and you will only make one turn (you will not lose speed). Note: you will only lose the item you have (if you have it). 4. Learn to control your vehicle. This will help you reduce the number of times you crash or fall. 5. Do as many tricks as possible. Only when making a jump should you shake the Wii control. This will help you that when you hit the ground you will make a miniturbo. 6. The start of each race. When the 2 appears in the countdown at the start of each race, press A (or 2) to perform a mini turbo. 7. In case of going off the map you can do this to try to recover positions and time in any race. When you hit the ground after Lakitu rescues you, just press A (or 2) to perform a miniturbo and recover time. It takes a bit of practice. 8. Learn to use your objects strategically. For example, if a green shell appears, position yourself in a straight line with respect to who you are going to throw it at as long as it does not have protection objects or simply use it as a defense, if a blue shell appears, throw it when you approach the one who goes first. Instead, if a bullet appears, use it if you are close to your opponents to hit them, etc.
So many people come back to this for nostalgia it seems. I made a playlist with your videos for ASMR, you have a very soothing voice for some reason lol
thank you so much, this helped me a lot your series is awesome, never tought that i would watch a video from 2010 with this content quality very good mario kart science you did there
I remember when I was 6 years old playing MKWii when it came out for the first time. I practiced really hard and finally got my 3 star ranking on every cup when I was 9. I lost my save file and had to get 3 stars all over again when I was 11 and I did it again cause I was really good. I eventually got some World Records including Rainbow Road (2:27:096), (2:26:883) and Waluigi Stadium.
It's clear that you put a huge amount of time in figuring out the keys to achieving three stars, and your proof videos are really convincing. Only a troll would try to dispute what you have discovered. Thank you so much!
@@acinggames8422 Just got back in MKWii, been watching a lot of TWD98 and trying to get three stars on 150cc. It’s frankly impressive how advice from 10 years still holds up. Great video.
@@neozyris3023 Mario kart wii has a big community. They even got online matches up and working through CTGP after Nintendo shut down WFC . Not many other games have this dedicated of a community. It’s great to still see that their is interest in the game all these years later
@TheGr8Unwashed You're welcome! Glad I could help. As far as more max times, I started working on the Star cup but it was taking me a very long time and I had to give up. I know that Daisy Circuit is 2:05, but that is only other course I know positively outside of the Mushroom and Banana Cups. Have fun getting your 3 stars, before you know it you'll be getting 3 starts all the time!
Thank you so much! finally after so long for years, I been trying so hard as hell to get a 3 star rank. for the first time ever I got a 3 star rank in Mario Kart wii. I got all 60 points in a race and didn't hit any walls, or get slipped in any bananas. I think this video really what to do! Now I just have keep get 3 stars ranks for rest of the races. I been suffering for so long get a 3 star rank. Thank you.
Hey Gravtac, you have inspired me to start testing the Course Maximum Times for mkwii. I have tested the 150cc Shell Cup extensively fo find the maximum times for the cup, and I plan to continue my research for the other cups. If you could also help test these times that would be a big help. Also, if you could start researching the times again that would help the Mario Kart community greatly. Here are the max times for 150cc Shell Cup that I've tested: GCN Peach Beach: 1:45.000 DS Yoshi Falls: 1:25.000 SNES Ghost Valley 2: 1:25.000 N64 Mario Raceway: 2:25.000 Your proof series are the most accurate guide and it's shame very few have seen it. Not many people know the exact method of 3 starring a cup and I do want this concept to be more known. On a side note, I had some questions: 1) Are the 100cc times always 20seconds more than the 150cc ones? (Like the sherbet land times) 2) Do the penalties and bonuses have the same time for all classes? (For example a fixed hazard collision will incur a 3.5 second penalty regardless of cc level) 3) I saw your position penalty proof video. (The incorrect calculations) By chance have you been able to accurately find the position penalities? Thanks for reading my long comment. If you could also tell us if you will continue testing we would greatly appreciate it. More people should start testing the times. If you have the time to do so, please reply. Jack
@Songwriter4God On Delfino Square I was referring to the alley with the dirt that does slow you down. But you are correct, not all off-road slows you down. The grey areas on DK Mountain are off-road and going off the red carpet on Bowser's Castle N64 (onto the blue carpet) is also off-road. But remember, off-road penatly is just for trying to earn 3 stars, otherwise going off-road is good for Grand Prix's.
Thank you so much for the information. I've had Mario Kart since 2009, and just tonight I finished the 150cc 3 star (I finished 100cc) awhile ago. I'm not looking forward to Mirror Mode, but 50cc should be fine.
Thanks Gravtac, Thanks to your vids I've managed to score 3 stars here and there (though not yet on the 150cc Mushroom Cup where I invariably get wiped out in Toad's Factory). Your presentation of arguments is excellent (and convincing) and the research you have done are impressive. I wonder if you (or others) have managed to ascertain Max Times for other cups?
This is arguably the hardest game to get 3 stars on. I had to do it twice cause when I did it the first time my wii ended up breaking so I got another one and had to redo it all.
It's crazy how Mario Kart Wii's turning 16 this year and yet 2008-style rumors about how to get 3 stars are still being spread. (source: reddit) I still refer back to this video every time because it has never failed me.
@DarkMitarwii Yeah, probably too many but this way people see the process we've been going through and see how to join in the testing if they are interested. I think you'll find the proof videos about the position penalty most interesting since we both worked so hard on that penalty and it still isn't completely figured out. Thanks again for collaborating with me on the research. I hope I did a decent job of reflecting our findings.
@DarkMitarwii Thanks for the compliment, but I would say it was our hard work. I did find it interesting that the collision penalties were actually 3.5 and 4.5 seconds and not an even 4 or 5 seconds like I had thought for so long. I'm sure you also noticed I did not mention that I hadn't tested other types of mobile hazards like cows, cars, bats, etc.. It just seemed too much detail for the guide. So if those penalty times are ever found to be different I'll just make some kind of amendment.
@pwnage451 That kart is the Sprinter for Medium weight characters. You need to unlock 24 fast staff ghosts in time trials by beating the normal ghosts by a large enough margin.
@SpikedJerex Awesome! I'm glad it helped you. As far as I can tell all penalties and bonuses stop once you cross the finish line. I haven't tested the bonuses after crossing, but I have made myself fall right after crossing the finish line and that did not seem to have an effect. So I assume the same is true for bonuses.
@russmart55er You're welcome. I'm glad it helped. I wanted to make sure people got accurate information on how rankings were calculated after I read so much inaccurate info on the internet.
Like BusterBladerNoir said, but I press the mushroom right when the blue shell peaks over head. It takes practice because if you press too soon or too late you'll still get hit.
+Gravtac: I don't thing you need to have 60 points to have 3start, because I remember getting 3 stars once by having the bronze cup in 150cc, and you only have to beat the required time 3 races out of 4, because I remember beating the required time on the first 3 races, and I miss it on the 4th race, I got 1 point short of a tie for 1st and it gives me bronze with 3 star rank. And I was kind of surprise that happen when it happen. I must have gotten in one of the 3 race one 5th place and still beat the required time.
Gosh I remember 5th grade me taking a long time to get 3 star ranking on every cup just so he'd have badge online. So I was half right as a kid because I noticed that if I fell off the stage once I would not get a 3 star rank.
I also have a tip: If you get a strong powerup like star or golden shroom use it as soon as possible because always when i get one a bullet bill pushes me away and the powerup is gone
I remember busting my ass off trying to get 3 stars and I've always said one simple mistake and there goes your chance at getting 3 stars. I still have the game to this day but sadly I need to order a new Wii Remote the accessory port is bad.
@sonicpoz Yes, colliding with walls (fixed hazards) effects your ranking but nothing else. You need to avoid collision with fixed and mobile hazards as much as possible if you want to increase your chances of getting a better ranking.
nice one dude watched this vid and got my 3 star rating in no time i always assumed trick jumps made a big difference thats where i was going wrong big time though cheers again dude your a star :-)
Only you play decent and you don't need to care how many times you get hit by CPU items. Do the possible for avoid walls or enemies like crabs, penguins, goombas, etc.
@Gravtac Tyvm for the video. It really helped me 'save' time so I didn't have to experiment with penalties etc and how it affects my ranking. I just hate going for 3 stars on mirror! Too many blue shells/collisions while doing wheelie. N64 Sherbet Land is probably my hardest course as I sometimes get hit by that tight corner!

+Gravtac: I don't thing you need to have 60 points to have 3start, because I remember getting 3 stars once by having the bronze cup in 150cc, and you only have to beat the required time 3 races out of 4, because I remember beating the required time on the first 3 races, and I miss it on the 4th race, I got 1 point short of a tie for 1st and it gives me bronze with 3 star rank. And I was kind of surprise that happen when it happen. I must have gotten in one of the 3 race one 5th place and still beat the required time.
Hi, you sure did upload many videos this time. I'm at Proof no. 7 so far. Need to check them all. Great guide though!!
Thanks to your help, I won the 100cc Leaf Cup with a rank of the3 stars! Thanks again for your help, buddy!
This was very helpful. I got a three star mirror 150cc special gold cup. I only have you to thank for the advice.
Great! I'm glad it helped.
Gosh I remember 5th grade me taking a long time to get 3 star ranking on every cup just so he'd have badge online.
So I was half right as a kid because I noticed that if I fell off the stage once I would not get a 3 star rank.
Thanks for uploading this updated video.
dude, you do not know how helpful you are! thanks so much :)
Came for the tips, stayed for the calming voice lol
I also have a tip:
If you get a strong powerup like star or golden shroom use it as soon as possible because always when i get one a bullet bill pushes me away and the powerup is gone
Thx Troy
150cc...... xD
because you suck
@ToppsMatchAttaxCards You're welcome! I really appreciate hearing that my video helped.
Glad my video helped. Hang in there, you'll get three stars if you keep trying. Mirror mode is tough but does seem to get easier the more you try.
I remember busting my ass off trying to get 3 stars and I've always said one simple mistake and there goes your chance at getting 3 stars. I still have the game to this day but sadly I need to order a new Wii Remote the accessory port is bad.
I cant even get 1 star cuz always on the last lap i get a blue shell/red shell on me and computers always letting me crash/fall of :(
KidABlackTrapGod me too
same i just want rosalina
I got 1 star but I don't know how
thanks alot gravtac this video helps alot this will totally get me 3 stars when i finish all 4 courses when i win in 1st place
@sonicpoz Yes, colliding with walls (fixed hazards) effects your ranking but nothing else. You need to avoid collision with fixed and mobile hazards as much as possible if you want to increase your chances of getting a better ranking.
Mario kart wii is the best Mario kart game
still is
You mean IS
I mean is, whoops 🤭
No it isn’t
Jk I fucking love this game
I respect your opinion, but I think Double Dash is the best.
Thanks for being specific. I wouldn’t have had trouble understanding but I know some people would have.
You're welcome! Glad it helped!
You're welcome! Glad to hear it helped!
nice one dude watched this vid and got my 3 star rating in no time i always assumed trick jumps made a big difference thats where i was going wrong big time though cheers again dude your a star :-)
Thank you for this! I'm really thankful cpu items don't affect 3 stars because the item balance is insane!
Only you play decent and you don't need to care how many times you get hit by CPU items. Do the possible for avoid walls or enemies like crabs, penguins, goombas, etc.
You're welcome! Glad it helped! figuring this out sure made it easier for me to get 3 stars too!
Thank you
I never knew hitting walls has an effect on getting three stars
With that in mind it's easier to get three stars by just driving carefully
And it no longer matters how many times you get hit by CPU items.
Glad the video helped!
@chosenpokemonchamp You're welcome! Glad my many hours of testing is helping other people get 3 stars.
@Gravtac Tyvm for the video. It really helped me 'save' time so I didn't have to experiment with penalties etc and how it affects my ranking. I just hate going for 3 stars on mirror! Too many blue shells/collisions while doing wheelie. N64 Sherbet Land is probably my hardest course as I sometimes get hit by that tight corner!
imovie classic
Fax’s bro
Your voice is perfect for ASMR... 🙃
Have you ever considered doing ASMR?
I watch this video daily for the asmr
LOL! I think I like it when people call me a golf commentator instead. :)
@h3ll0xzx555 I forgot, also the max times for the 100cc Sherbet Land and 100cc Delfino Square are 3:20.
Very well explained! Great video 👍😀
Thanks!
