Playing Mario Kart 7 online in 2023 

While I'm sure Pretendo Network will fill in for Nintendo Network after the servers go down, it's still the end of an era. However, I think Mario Kart 7 still has many exiting years ahead, and I enjoyed getting to play it for the first time in a while. - Join this channel’s Discord server! discord.gg/a78adgA3d2 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Is there something down here...? - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Say, do I know you?

8:48 Yo no way im the french Daisy-Simp player, I instantly recognised myself with my epic combo and bagging toad circuit gameplay. wish I knew who you were at the time, I would have been so happy to see and recognise you in game. I guess mk7 online is a really a small place

Mario kart 7 still alive to this day thanks for keeping this game alive and ill watch the premiere all the way through 🍿

Mario Kart 7 Was The first Game I Started Playing on the 3ds and I enjoyed it

The meta car combo for 7 is actually Metal Mario + B Dasher + Red Monster tyres + Peach Parasol / Ghastly glider

Plot Twist! I was the Yoshi in the Toad Circuit Match at 8:47 I am not even kidding. 11 year old me made a pretty bad Mii replica of myself with my own initials attached but I think it helped me... maybe. I wanted to play Mario Kart 7 again ever since I heard the 3DS and Wii U Online was gonna die, and that match is one example of me relearning Mario Kart 7’s physics all over again (seriously, I somehow hit myself with my own Red Shell several times in the section I was online) but it was worth it in the end. My ultimate goal is to finish with exactly 6969 VR by April.

The streets pass ghosts don’t disappear after you play them they get stored in Time trials along with 8 or 9 other ghosts so you can race with 7 ghosts on that track that you just beaten from the street pass on the Mario Kart channel.

I remember when I used to play this back when it came out and people would only play that wuhu track

There actually is a drift stat in MK7. It's just hidden. You have to look it up

SpotPass Time Trials don’t get removed, they just get moved to where you’d select a ghost race.

The thing that charmed me about mk7 was definitely the spotpass time trails I got a few, and it was amazing Of course its like any other time trials with peoples ghosts, but they were like time capsules with multiple people, and it was so awesome

so entertaining, glad i was recommended this because I've been playing a lot of MK7 online these past weeks to get up to 10K (I'm at 7000 now), I'll tell you this its still alive, but half of the time youre up against less players than you expect, its more fun when youre up against decent players

The battle mode matches you played where honestly really fun to watch. Great video overall

This is a sad way to learn about the discontinuation of 3ds/wii u online, i thought it would never come, and it's so soon now. 3ds and Wii U were my childhood (im still a kid but let me cook), and seeing all of the services for them slowly crumble one by one, official hardware production, miiverse, the e-shop, and now online itself, along with many other miscellanous discontinuations.

I love this game. Thankfully, we can still play online with CTGP7.

Hey I didn’t see anyone point this out but as you reach higher vr, you usually get more room availability.

I’ve been thinking about this lately! Well I guess we’ll see. Looking forward to this great upload. 👍

I played mk7 yesterday trying to get a new pb on snes rainbow road. I feel like I can beat my time of 1:19.572

bro ur voice mad relaxing bro

There are two more things which are special to mk7 online: 1.Those people who afk in battle mode to grind VR, so you can hit them over and over again to grind points 2.The mkwii style HACKERS

Awesome! Are there going to be more MK7 videos? Or older MK games?

please do another video like this, this was a very entertaining watch.

Ayyyyy It’s always nice to see someone play online MK7 in this day and age 🤜🏻

mario kart 7 was one of my first online network games i’ve ever played

so excited eveytime i see a new video from u

woah? 9.5k? dude, you're on fire! awesome video as usual.

The fact that the B dasher and Metal Mario was meta, is so cool to me. Love that character and combo

Love the Wi Fi Menu song

In my opinion there isn't such a thing as a "bad" Mario Kart, some games just aren't a select few's cup of tea but it doesn't effect the quality of the game

my childhood mk right here. this game is fun online from what I rember.

I got MK7 in 2012 and I remember how packed the servers were, I guess everyone moved on..

Game's more enjoyable to play at a higher level than 8DX is, at least for me Still play it online plenty, so it's a bit sad to see it go, but at the same time I know there will be ways to still access servers

3:00 uh oh, someone got a blue shell

I still play online to this mk7 even if i have 8 and 8 deluxe and wii because it's my favorite mario kart and we choose random because all tracks are amazing or at least great/normal

9:37 ive played this game way too much and ive never thought the bullet would do that haha

0:18 i see you attempting the cut lol

You know the shortcut in Coconut Mall isn’t off-road in 7?? I only figured this out like 2 weeks ago and I’ve had the game for years 😳

love ur videos

this game is so nostalgic man

MK Wii is the Melee of Mario Kart. It’s not dying it’s got a huge online community in CTGP and even implemented 200cc (which runs WAYYYY better on Wii than MK8D). MK7 is underrated though. This is just one of those franchises that has been super consistent through the years and hard to mess up. Same with the mainline Mario series.

as someone who has played this, i can deconfirm that 1:44 is actually good shroomless, you just gotta drift into it and out

There are few people online because many people have more than 10k vr, the better you are the more perseverance you need to be at the level

The mariokart game where you play as this extremely minor obeese bee from mario galaxy which has 2 fans and is barely known by pretty much the rest of the world, while a fan favorite universally adored purple overall wearing crackhead is nowhere to be found, despite HIS OWN TRACK still being in the game.

I honestly don’t think you can even lose VR in this game. I don’t remember ever losing any when I would lose

My friend and I bring our 3Ds’ to school and play Mario kart local multiplayer during passing periods 😦

You better play as much as you can considering whats happening next year

I still play MK7 and it's so fun

Rest In Peace 3DS online multi-player 😢

if your 3ds is homebrewed like mine, you can still play online mk7 after april 1 2024

I only played Mario Kart 7 for the first time yesterday (no joke), and I think it’s decent. It’s no Mario Kart 8, not Double Dash and nowhere near Mario Kart Wii’s level of great, but it’s ok.

Hey man, just want to put this message out and say thank for everything you’ve done. You’ve put out this really inspiring content and we’re all very proud of you! Keep up the amazing and wonderful work for your future endeavours, and stay safe.

Fun fact The 3ds was released before the youngest country in the world gained indepence 3ds - Febuary 26th 2011 South Sudan - July 9th 2011

wow i had the game for years and didnt know about the glider SC on mario circuit 2

Nostalgia at its best

Never played this, hopefully it is still active doe 😅

i hope we will have a custom online server for 3DS and Wii U like Wiimmfi i still have Mario Kart 7 Wii U i dont have it anymore since it belongs to my little cosin, i hear there is CTGP 7 you should try it i had it years ago, but not anymore, since my 2DS is broken also how do you screen record MK7 like this bruh!? bro that bill was crezy on Toads Circuit lol Battle mod is awesome bro

The blue shell in this game is an absolute menace 💀

im the leeza yoshi in the full room at wuhu loop! :) this was so fun.

I have a challenge for you. Make it an incentive to reach 10,000 VR before the servers shut down. You'll get the gold kart

People would be hacking their Wii U and 3DS before Nintendo Network dies.

We need more MK7 videos! :o

I bet only track port that didn't work was the Alpine pass\Rock Rock Mountain

This video was great but I was last in chat again

Rosalina main here I only played Mario kart 7 when I couldn’t play on the wii😂

I love mk7 online, but it's definitely been more buggy lately. The game will crash on the character select screen. It only happens when trying to play online and I havent been able to find anyone having a similar issue. I dont know if it's just my 3ds being weird or if it's something else

Haha that's me at 9:00 XoXo

Even though I prefer Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, it was still fun to play Mario Kart 7 online. When there weren't hackers in the room, of course.

It bothers me that you put your own music instead of just keeping the game's sound but other than that, interesting video

nice vid :)

i want to play this again but i lost the cartridge ☹

Can you play Mario Kart Knockoff of Logan Kart 8 Deluxe?

Still good until it shutdowns

the bullet bill pathing was crazy XD

I sometimes play ctgp 7 on my 3ds

wii, 7, and 8 are good, but im sad 8 never came to 3ds

mk7 is so good please make more content about it maybe even mk7 ctgp

Weird how MKW was (and still is) vastly more popular than 7 but 8 and 8 deluxe are effectively remakes of 7 and took very little from MKW

I’ve put so many hours into this game and it’s truly embarrassing that I learned at least three new shortcuts from this video, quite disappointed with myself. Awesome video though

Have you got games on your phone?

Tbh you had loads of vr i only had 2300vr

Nintendo: cancels everything on 3ds and Wii U Modders: Oh no! Anyways. Also, would love to see you try ctgp-7 with custom cc

big fan

You should play ctgp-7

Zucchini is better than b dasher, and paraglider is the best glider.

Mk7 is my fav Mario kart so this made me so happy :) Also I’m still upset that you said Mario was better than Luigi, stop lying to yourself

There’s still online play

play CTGP-7

I love mk7

Play it modded!

14:58 NOT MATH

I loved this game man, fuck nintendo for ruining the 3DS

3:33

2:14

So they weren't lying on shutting down online racing?

Just play ctgp-7

I have this game still, so I could play it. I just don't

14:40

10:17

mkw gold stars by @you?
