Mario Kart Wii Cheats

After completing 1,000,000 races Vanellope is playable.

Babies Mario and Peach are automatically unlock at the start. Baby Luigi:8 fast staff ghosts required. Baby Daisy:Star rank (cup currently unknown) Dry Bones is the same I think. Koopa and Toad and available at the start. Toadette requires 16 ghost records (Time Trials)

First off make sure you know how to dodge a pow.
So when a red shell is aiming you and a pow is coming .
When the red shell is really near you and the pow is nearly going to make you dizzy dodge the pow and the red shell will disappear and it doesn't get you too
It's like this if you do it with other items

I know that you probably already know this but for those of you who don't. When your playing and your last in the game. Look for pathways hidden somewhere on the track they will be shortcuts and could put you ahead in the race. Thanks for reading and I really hope I helped

If a red or green shell comes shooting at you the first thing you want to do is have a banana in your inventory and when it comes at you use your banana but don't let go hold it so it's behind the kart and the red or green shell hits it the effect will be negated and nothing will happen if a blue shell comes at you have a mushroom ready when it's about to hit you use your mushroom timing is key I hope you enjoyed this cheat and find it useful

This works with any kart any charecter anywhere,
What you do is when you fall off a cliff or something and the cloud guy comes and brings you back on the track, right when you come back on screen, do a in-air burnout quickly then let go and press 2 right when you touch the ground.
Hope I helped

All you have to do is have 2 or more players, then player 1 choose the character you both want. Then, un-confirm your pick and do not pick again yet. Then, player 2 pick the same one. Player 1 hits the B button, then goes back into character selection. Both players press A. You are both the same character. ( When you go to pick bike/kart one players character will look weird. )

When you complete ALL the Grand Prix races with a certain rank you can add a star next to your profile name on the results screen and the Wi-Fi races.
1 Star Pofile Name:
Earn a '1 Star' rank in ALL Grand Prix races.
2 Star Profile Name:
Earn a '2 Star' rank in ALL Grand Prix races.
3 Star Profile Name:
Earn a '3 Star' rank in ALL Grand Prix races.

This feature becomes available when you have won 4,800 races/battles.

These features will become unlocked when you get a 'Gold' rank for ALL cups (including those in 150cc Mirror mode).

Play the indicated number of games (races/battles) to unlock the corresponding character, kart, or bike. This method of unlocking content takes time but is far easier to complete.

Play 3,150 races/battles.

As soon as you start the race, before you get to the item boxes turn to the right and you will find the shortcut!

Maple Treeway:Right after GO!, turn right and there will be a cut to the cannon also after the bouncy net turn left and there will be a cut to the start/finish line.

First, choose multiplayer. Then choose a character you are arguing about to play. Choose him with your opponent choosing nothing. Then press b 2 times. Then go back to the character selection to have your partner do the same thing. Then when you go back to character selection, you are both that character!!!! This same glicth has a side effect. After your first race, the second player's car will dissapear. Hope this helped

Follow the trains off near the finsh,make sure you are neally touching the last one,and once the 1st ones gone,speed up and lanch off the side your on and onto the other side

Right after the net near the finish you can go either to the left or the right and there will be a little ramp that will shoot you up a ways. Also right after the finish/ starting line there is another better short cut on the right that will take you all the way to the cannon really fast. Hope this Helps

In the shell cup 1st race, when you see building blocks, drive in between them there is a secret ramp.In adition to the first ramp you will take atleast 1 place ahead

Since funk kong replaced petey piranha. Select funky kong. Then you pick the bike below the standard. Go to time trials and pick the delfino square course. Right as you pick the course press everybutton on the remote except b and petey piranha is on the screen but not funky. Hope this helps.

Do you stink at Maple Treeway? I did until I found this shortcut. So when you are going off the net, go left, not strait. You will go through the tree and out the other side and usually pass up to five people. There is also a path on the right, but don't go on it. It really slows you down because it shoots you right into another tree. So there you have it. Maple Treeway shortcut!

This isn't really important but it has helped me a lot. Probably most people already know it, but for you newbies, here is a way to get a temporary boost. If you are going off a ramp in any track, right when your player touches the ramp, shake your wii controller. Your player will do a flip or spin and when it hits the ground it will get a temporary boost. Also you may not know how to do a wheelie. Just shake you wii remote when you are on the ground. One thing to remember is that you CANNOT turn when you are doing a wheelie.

I figured this out when I was about to fall off the world in Wario's Gold Mine. When you get to the part of the track where the little cars full of gold are traveling, follow the purple track. You will go into a little tan colored tube where there is a rainbow pad and a couple QMQs. After beig on there for a few seconds you will pop out the other side and probably be in first to fifth place.

To do this you have to go on Special Cup on any cc even mirror mode . When the race starts turn a bit and then you will see on the rock in front of you and there will be tire marks on there. Go ON IT and then when you go downhill go up again and TADA! There's the shortcut. Please give me comments.
P.S. At the big jump do a big turn with automatic avoiding falling, Manual still works but it is more complicated.

If you have Toad, Koopa Troopa, or Dry Bones and the Magikriuser you go fast and get good place

Once you hit an item box, keep pressing up/down/L until you get your item. That's all their it is to it.

Always have super mushroom,star and mega mushroom Dodge blue shell and dodge red shells all charators unlocked and unloked custom tracks

If you want to find a way to go ahead of lots of racers in daisy circut then before you get to the statues of daisy and luigi drive along the curve to see a building with some stairs. Go into the building and find at the end of the building is a raimbow pad if you go onto the rainbow pad you will be shot out the building and go really far onto the normal track. (doing a trick off the raimbow pad will make you go even faster. I also recomend using a mushroom when you get to the stairs because the stairs might slow you down a little.) this might get you in first. (if not first then you will get another good place.)

To do this,drive and drive until you are next to the Yoshi egg.Try to jump on it(using Queen Mushroom or Mushroom). If you do,the Yoshi Egg will make you jump to the other side.Yeah!You are in 1st place!Luckily,Nintendo will not ban you for this so,you don't have to worry about ANYTHING.

What you do is have at least 1 mushroom try and get first without using a mushroom wait until sombody releases the blue shell (this part is VERY VITAL please read carfully)when the blue shell has turned around in circles' VERY FAST use the mushroom and it will lock on the place before you used the mushroom.thank you for reading this cheat.

Once you come up with the gaps on the middle, ramp on the edges and then make a trick in mid-air and jump over the gap and it should take away 2.789 seconds off your actual time!

Here's a tutorial on how to do the Spindrift! First move the analog stick. If it's a left corner, then move the analog stick right, left Quickly! Before your hop touches the ground. If it's a right corner, move the analog sick left,right Quickly! Before your hop touches
The ground.
Note: This doesn't work with the Wii Wheel! It works with the Nunchuck, Classic Controller, and the Gamecube controller. Good luck trying to do the spindrift.

F you have an SD card atleast 2GB and have a wii go on the internet find letterbomb you may need some details from your wii , enter the capcha, Download and extract it. Put your SD card in and boot.elf put that on you're SD card, take it out put your SD crd inside the wii the you will get a channel where there I blue water on it, click on it on our wii and find Mario Kart Wii, Now it's all hacking find the cheats online and you can go really fast in anything or keep getting items like infinite mushroom boostet

You can do this off of any tree. This glitch is easier to do with Funky Kong and the Spear. Make sure his elbow is at the tree. Boost is optional. Then, get enough speed and there you have it. Left elbow cleaner. Make sure you do this off of a tree. Not useful for Time Trials. Just a for fun glitch.

Give yourself a one lap handicap to increase the difficulty and the fun factor. Just wait a lap, then go. Try and get all the items, and use plenty of shortcuts.

When you get into the water a good chance of keeping off the grass at the turns before the underwater tube is to go through the tunnel on the road and not going through the tunnel on the water.

Daisy: Finish in first place in the Mushroom Cup 150cc.
Honey Queen: Finish in first place in the Banana Cup 150cc.

Go on the Time Trials. Do a Time Trial for each race in the Mushroom, Flower, Star, Shell, and Banana Cups. Then, turn off your Wii after you have gone back to the title page. Turn it back on and go to your profile (the one you did all of this on), and it will say all of the things you've unlocked. Good luck!

Ok,to get a small boost while racing, get directly behind someone on a long straight road. You also cannot turn while doing this trick. If you do it correctly, you will see several blue streaks that fly behind you. Keep driving straight, and you will see a blue force field in front of you. You will then get a small boost!

When the countdown starts, wait until the "2" begins to disappear, then (hold 2) to get a boost at the start of the race.
When the timer to begin the race just starts, (hold 1 + 2). As soon as it is about to say "Go" , release both buttons and (press 2) as you would normally do to start the race. If you did it correctly you will get a quick boost that will usually put you in first place in the 50cc and 100cc class.

You can only dodge a spiny shell (an item used to slow down the person in first place) under certain circumstances.
1.) Riding through a cannon.
Cannons are only on certain parts of certain courses. You'll need to be lucky to successfully use this method.
2.) Using a mushroom/golden mushroom.
This can be hard to do because you cannot get any mushrooms in first place and any items you save up can be taken away by a POW block or some lightning. You have to use your mushroom as soon as the shell is in your sight. If you're really, really lucky, you may run over a mushroom on the ground at the right moment to dodge the spiny shell.

Whenever you go through an item box while either doing races or battles you can quickly tap the "item button" to get your item much faster.
The "item button" is the d-pad for the Wii Wheel controls, the Z button with the Wii remote and Nunchuk controls, the L button for the Classic Controller controls and again the L button for the NGC Controller controls.
Be careful about using the item to soon.

When you do the cheat for the same character in multiplayer, when you are at the course selecting screen the second and third(maybe) karts are invisible!they are floating in a sitting position!

You have to get a star or better in all mirror mode cups or have a super mario galaxy saved on your wii and you will get her right when you get on

What you need to do is line up behind a racer (not to close or you might end up bumping into them if their to slow, or to far ,or it won't have any effect.) You'll notice that blue thingies start flying out of your engine. Keep folowing them and you'll get a shield thingy. Then just race past them.

You must race in 16 different time trails. You do NOT have to race other ghosts, preferably not to race ghosts. Hope I helped you.

Please don't get confused with Baby Daisy.
If you obtain 1 star or higher inthe 100cc retro cups, you will unlock Bowser Jr. That was when I got confused . But if you obtain 1+ star in all of the 50cc cups, you will get Baby Daisy.

i literally just figured this out. in mushroom gorge there is a hidden mushroom in the hole that's in the beginning (this can only be used with a boost) as soon as u hit the grass boost land on the mushroom (must be in center of mushroom) and do a trick and as soon as u land on the mushroom and u will land on the wooden boardwalk and then u just go

Instead of unlocking 8 expert staff ghosts, you can unlock baby Luigi by winning 100 ghost races on Mario Kart Channel. You also unlock Funky Kong and a small kart.

Look some people will make glitches in some games but when a person runs into the blue shell or whatever it is called, it doesnt mean that the person is a cheater, it just meant they got lucky, ok. Sometimes when you are yelling at the person calling them a cheater sometimes makes people not want to play with you okay. Now why dont you go have fun.
Stay Stoked -adn mjD

When you are a red shell's target quickly turn a sharp corner and the red shell sometimes avoids you.

use king boo and grap an item in waluigi staidium go up a ramp and once you are near another item block and release the item king boo will appear to punch the item block.

there are 2 ways to get baby luigi. The second was is that you have to do 100 nintendo WFC (WI FI CONNECTI ghost races

you must have one mushroom just as the blue shell is about to hit you use a musroom.

Ok, this might be a bit complicated to understand, but I'm doing my best..
Did it ever happened to you that you've been taken your favorite character in Multiplayer mode? Yes?? Well, here's the way to solve the problem:
I will take Yoshi as an example.
Let's say you're three people playing, and you all want Yoshi.
First of all, one of you must select Yoshi. Then, press B. (Or 1, depending on witch remote you are using: Wii or GameCube.) And then, it's the second one's turn. Do the same process. After, the third person does the same.
Finally, the player 1 must press B, (or 1). Then return to the character selecting screen. All three players will be on Yoshi!!
..But BE CAREFUL: after this, you mustn't move your cursor if you are..

In the Jungle Parkway course, there is a bridge right before a cave at the very end. This can be used for your own cheap advantage, as it's path is very narrow. If you drop a Banana Peel or Decoy Box right on the bridge, whoever is behind you is doomed to get hit by it, unless...
There is a way to avoid this, however. If you have a red or green shell, it is possible to hit the box or peel and get rid of it. If the Triple Banana Peels are used? It's hopeless.

Hello,& I was going to tell you how to unlock a star by your Mii's name.
Get a star rank on every cup 50cc-100cc mirror.

When going through the river before the water fall instead of going around the big red hat go through the grass behind it. This will give and edge in time trials mode and in Grand prix it might get you in front.

Hey,guys!In Mario Kart Wii,I saw this dude get hit by a blue shell & then he warped in front of it without a mushroom & was still going at full speed.(p.s. This was on wi-fi.)Was he using Powersaves or did he glitch the game!I'm confused & actually want to report all cheaters to Nintendo!Please answer!
-adn m|D

To avoid the blue spiny shells, or "1st place shells", you need to have a mushroom. When the shell goes up when it is about to hit you, use the mushroom, and the shell will explode behind you and leave you untouched.
When a POW block appears and starts to count down, start shaking the Wii remote like you are about to do a trick. This will allow you to keep the speed up and only spin around once. WARNING: don't do this when you are about to go around a turn, because it will only make you crash

To not get hit by an incoming projectile, if you have an item such as a turtle shell or a banana peel (boxes do not work), simply press and hold the left directional button. The item will sit behind you and dissipate after getting hit. You however will not be hit.

To unlock Rosalina without having to get at least one star on every cup, simply have a saved game from Super Mario Galaxy. When you go back into Mario Kart, she will be unlocked.

Shake the wii remote as much as you can before and as the pow hits(in my opinion using the wii wheel is easier)

The easy way is to have a save file of super mario galaxy on your wii
And then you put your mario kart in your wii then you will have rosalina.the hard way is to do over 2000 races in vs. Mode in single player.

Many people know this, but then again, many people don't. You can get a small speed boost after Jumps with boosts on the edge. You can pull back the steering wheel, like how you do a wheelie, as you start to jump. You will hear a ping and your character will do a trick, no matter the vehicle or person. Then after you land, you will get a small speed boost.
Hope I helped,
7OneWingedAngel7

Press 2+1. Turn one way, then the other and let go. You speed boost!

Here are the two shortcuts for Coconut Mall, although the second one is just an extension of first:
1. For the first shortcut in Coconut Mall, you need one mushroom. You firstly need too make your way up the escalators at the start of the course. You then must not go down the escalator, but go to the right of it. Stay to the right, until you notice an open path in the row of stores next too you. Use your mushroom, and turn into the path. After the path you will be shot over a jump and back onto the normal race track again.
2. For the shortcut continuation you'll need at least two mushrooms. So follow the above shortcut until the end of the path(richt before the jump). Now use a second mushroom and sharply turn(instead of using the jump), then weave your way through ..

When you fall, a Lakitu grabs you up, aclerate just before you touch the ground and you will have a boost.

MAPLE TREEWAY
When you start, don't get a speed boost. Turn right and you'll see an opening in the fence. Follow the path of speed boosts and you'll end up right at the cannon.
MUSHROOM GORGE (MUSHROOM REQUIRED)
At the start stay to the left, use the mushroom, and go off the edge. You'll bounce on two mushrooms and over a wooden fence.

COCONUT MALL (MUSHROOM RECOMMENDED)
At the start of the race, go up the escalator. Stay to the right and don't go down the escalator. There'll be a little opening at the right. Use the mushroom and you'll go through thestore and off the edge.

I'm sure everyone hates being POW'd in Mario Kart Wii, but I discovered that if you shake your Wii remote when smacked by the POW, you'll cancel out the worst part of the effect (spinning on the ground) and do a 360 in air and start driving again! Of course if you haven't learned it already, you can also use jumps to your advantage, half pipe jumps are probably the most handy in this case, when you see that POW block above your head and you're not using it, but you're near a half pipe jump, attempt to get to it and jump before that POW takes effect to save your items (yes, shaking the Wii remote when you get hit by the POW will not save your items, but it can save your position).
Hope this helps you non-pro Kart racers!

Every is talking about how you have to get a star or higher on every cup in the entire game well I'm here to say that that is not true you can unlock Rosalina by getting a star or higher in all mirror mode cups, playing 50 grad prixs with mario galaxy data, or playing 4,950 gran prixs of any kind

I found out that if you go off a jump and you tilt your Wii wheel forward or backward, your kart will do the same.

In wario's gold mind,you will see a blue railroad track were you have to dodge the gold filled contaners.Go of to the left and jump off the track,there will be speed land marks to get to the finish line.

Hope you have a fun time racing

This is one of the hardest to pull of in the game, but if done right it saves heaps of time. Firstly, make your way through the course as usual, until the big jump after the conveyor belts. Trick of the large jump, and kind of go to the right of screen (only slightly.) Now this is the hard part, drive towards the right of the first jump, and use your mushroom whilst turning left, also trick off the jump. If you turned sharp enough, and hit the right part of the jump, then you should end up seeing yourself soaring over the lake, and landing just before the zoom pad. This is yet another shortcut that takes endless practice, so don't be disheartened just by a few failed attempts, for extra help see the world record of Toad's Factory.

These are the two Luigi Circuit shortcuts that I know of, and how to pull them off:
1. The beginner shortcut which is very simple and incredibly easy shortcut to pull off. Firstly, you will need a mushroom, then when driving down the first straight road on the course (after the second turn) down the left side you will notice a jump among the sand. To use this jump, the simply use your mushroom to cut across the sand, then trick off the jump and return to the race track.
2. The expert shortcut, amazingly tricky and hard to time, one of the hardest on MKW. Now driving down the straight road again, ignore the jump and keep driving forward. Now you'll notice this sand pit with green pipes in there. Now when a reasonable distance away from the pipe, start drifting toward..

Here are some of my best tips to use when you have any kind of mushroom item.
Tip 1: If you have a triple mushroom item, than don't instantly use all three, wait for the previous boost to finish and then use the next mushroom.
Tip 2: If you have a Golden Mushroom item, then try to press the item trigger repetitively as fast as possible as it is a time limit, not amount of uses limit.
Tip 3: If going around a sharp turn, then I suggest that you do not use your mushroom, as it could send you into a wall, or off an edge.
Tip 4: If possible, occasionally try and save your mushroom to pull off a nearby shortcut, but don't keep it for too long or else you risk losing it to an item such as lightning.
Tip 5: Whilst holding a mushroom item, i..
