The Day Mario Kart Wii Died
Вставка
- Опубліковано 19 тра 2024
- Nintendo officially shut down the online services on May 20th, 2014 and these are my very last Mario Kart Wii races in the form of a 5v5 clan war. Wiimmfi officially released around the same time and is still being used today to play all Wii games online.

Special video today reacting to the last races I ever played on Nintendo Wifi exactly 10 years ago!
Flounderfest will resume Wednesday
Yayya
What so u can't play mario kart wii?
Ok
I thought there was the game hack version
Troy I remember 5 years ago you said you would release the second part of your last ever races on WFC and now we finally get to see the footage
When u realise we’ve been using Wiimmfi longer than the old connection!
As a child I remember playing MK Wii online the very last day. I noticed that I randomly disconnected and assumed it was an internet router problem.
I tried hours figuring this out and I eventually gave up and started crying.
Same
I remember coming home from school in 2014 knowing it was happening either that day or the next, sitting down to play and not connecting and just thinking "so thats it"... luckily wiimmfi saved the game haha
@@user-vr2le8jb4dSimilar story. I just got up the next morning accepting the online's fate
Hear that Nintendo!? You monsters!
So Troy’s last Nintendo wifi race saw him mess around on Grumble Volcano and disconnect while nailing a shortcut… can’t think of a more fitting end
This is like watching your grandma’s last days before she dies… if your grandma was immediately resurrected as a cyborg and is amazingly healthy ten years later
This comment is the most cursed/accurate thing I've read all day. Well done.
From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh, it disgusted me
O my god, I remember you telling us in a video in 2014, you would release your last races in 10 years. I never imagined arriving on that day. Happy to still be here after all that time!
In 2019 he released some of them and released the other half today.
@@LiamDeege Oh yeah that’s right!
@@PepijnHuigen Yep! He even stated 5 years ago that he would post the second half of the footage 5 years later.
Gone but not forgotten, Old wifi was a truly a unique experience.
It was 10 years ago today. That’s crazy. Time goes too fast
FR, every time I watch his older vids, I feel like an old man stuck in the body of a 19 year old.
i was like 6-7 years old so its not that crazy to me tbh, it feels like about that long
@@MegaVega2007 I was 9 when the servers shut down.
OGs remember the days Troy did the clan wars with Flow, IS, and many others, as well as with people like Sagar, Ronak, Adam, and others he met in the clans.
Fw Matt!!!!!!
@@jamesoncasey1820 I always forget about him I'll be honest. The best memory I have of those guys was when Troy used a Hammer Bro texture on custom tracks and he did some Team VS with Sagar, Adam and Ronak.
I remember
i used to impersonate myself as a member of flow jajaja
@@Jay-hd3uj Who didn't lol
i love the "bam" in a reaction commentary video hahaha
i guess the first ever "bam" was in a reaction commentary video, so i retract my statement
We have been blessed with new 2014 Troy content. Today is a good day
Bro if somebody named shrek comments something like "This is a certified RIP classic" I swear imma lose it
I have terrible news
Him and Zach always do it and I don't mind it now honestly.
That's the spirit right there 29:43 Goofing off with some random player you've never met in what could be your very last race. The disconnection happening right as Half the room does the lava-glitch, couldn't end more cathartic!
I'd really love to see you do more Clan War videos honestly. The one you did with Nick and Sword a few years back was such a great throwback!
As someone who plays clan wars now, it's very interesting to see how the gameplay has changed so much over the years, especially since we rarely get to see full vods of wars from back then. Thank you for uploading some golden content, and hope to see more (if u can dig up any 😅😅)
I think there's tons of old wars on youtube if you try to find them, especially 2014
At this point Wiimfii is outlasting the original Nintendo Wii online services, I think
It has outlasted them since 2020
This is a certified Nintendo WFC 10th anniversary online shutdown classic!
this game will always have a special place in my heart
I can imagine a lot of people say that, myself included.
10 years....time has passed, and Mario Kart Wii Community is still Strong. We should thank the team who made Wiimmfi for reviving Mario Kart Wii Online Servers ❤
I started watching you back in early 2014, with my favorite video being the 4 player 10 level shortcut challenge. I was in 2nd grade then, and it’s wild that we continue to play this game even 10 years after the official servers closed. Even when you weren’t as active in 2015/2016, I loved watching your videos when they would come out. Your positive and fun personality helped shape me as a kid, and it even influenced me to make my own mk channel (which I used as my college essay). Now that I’m a month away from graduation, I want to thank you for continuing to be a creator for mk and bringing more interest into the community. I don’t know if I would have stuck with the game without your content and congrats on 500k ❤️
I've been here on and off since I was 7 back in late 2012/early 2013 and I just graduated from high school almost a year ago now. My favorite videos he did back then include RTCT, his custom track rankings, the shortcut challenges with Justin, Colton, Matt, Connor and others, and his old custom track streams.
I was really expecting a FlounderFest episode today. But then I saw this video and completely forgot that today was the 10-year anniversary. Thank you so much Wiimmfi for keeping MKWii still alive to this day. I was really interested in playing this game online back in the day. If it wasn’t for you, I would not be playing this game today or almost in my life again.
Your skill has clearly improved over the past 10 years
It's crazy how much everyone has improved. Back then, it was so much easier! (even when I was worse haha)
@@TWD98 Troy you've always looked amazing in your older videos, you may think you were worse, but you have always been great in my opinion.
Wow, I cannot believe it. This is just simply tragic. After all these years, Mario Kart Wii is no more. I remember seeing Mario Kart Wii grow up, take his first steps, and so much more. He will truly be missed. Gone, but not forgotten.
You just love to bring out jokes don't you?
@@LiamDeege that’s what the comment section is for
@@Minecraft_Steve_ I mean you're not wrong.🙂
@@LiamDeegeI believe he does love to bring out jokes
@@Xtramelon He certainly does
The fact that Troy has footage of the servers shutting down and kicking him off on his own screen is priceless! I'm so glad you are sharing this footage to us who have never seen it happen 10 years ago! There's just a kind of unexplainable magic just watching this video. I never played mkwii online during the WFC era, because I was in 1st grade when they shut down the servers. I was just enjoying my childhood completely oblivious to this happening. Thanks Troy!
What a unique feeling, seeing the disconnect screen, trying to imagine what it must have felt like to know it was over
Well, the Wii U servers were shut down a few months ago. I couldn't help but sendoff Splaoon 1 until the very end, which probably had a very similar feeling. Luckily, there's already a fanmade server dubbed "Pretendo" that seems quite similar to Wiimmfi. I'm really just ecstatic with how much the community has grown to survive the fate of being shut down! Ironically, the reason I'm so intrigued by the Mario Kart Wii community is seeing how much they've been able to create from an otherwise forgotten game. I'm simply inspired to see how far the Splatoon can push the boundaries of its game 10 years from now!
Dancing with a stranger in your very last Online race is truly a thing of beauty. Loved watching this even though I wasn't there in 2014
Troy Circuit will never be the same again after the death of Mario kart Wii
We don't talk about troll tracks like that one which appeared in RTCT
@@LiamDeege Aw, cmon. I still do.
@@alieninsectbass True, it's just that troll tracks are not something I am into, especially when they appear after 2 of my all time favorites in RTCT 10.
What a way for Troy to celebrate. Looking back at the time where he played before WFC shut down. Happy 10th Nintendo WFC Shutdown Anniversay everybody! 🙂
Nintendo Network is still being kept alive by 4 people today
Shame the Wii servers only lasted a day before matchmaking was turned off. Luckily the last race was recorded by both people on 22nd May 2014
I actually played MKWii online on that day with a former friend
what game, who and how
@@droid1008 Fishguy6564 on Mario Kart 7
SlitherySheep on Mario Maker
Lcd101 on Splatoon
The forth player omoroid disconnected. He was on Xenoblade X
The uncertainty people must have felt back then, knowing they most likely had played their last game of Mario Kart Wii online.
Only to realize that they can play on Wiimfi the spiritual successor to WFC
man i remember getting my 1st wii all the way back in 2012 without even knowing online play was a thing. time sure flies
Same!
Genuinely holy crap. It’s been TEN YEARS?! Wow.
Troy, because of your videos back in 2012, I dove deep into MKW and played countless hours, literally the moment I got home from school I was racing. My dad saw how much fun I was having and HE decided to play online as well. He was so addicted, he accidentally woke my mom up at 2am because she could hear the ‘trick” sound that plays through the Wii wheel
I remember the night in middle school wheee it was the last day. I was so sad because MK8 did not have the same charm as Wii imo.
Thanks for sharing this!
This reminds me of when the wii u servers were shutting down. I kept playing mario kart 8 online evry day for two weeks and stopped a few hourse before it shut down. I just got the game so i was rly bad at it and had no time to improve. I got way better since and I'd destroy those races now. I didnt even know how to drift. It was my first mariokart game. Im getting Mk8dx for my birthday (13th of June) so i will finally but my skills to the test in online. I've been playing mk8wiiu singleplayer for a while and i love it. Its fun how we both experienced the end of an era at diffrent times in almost the same way. How interasting.
Unfortunately I could not do this with the original 8 since my disc it got scratched like back in 2018 for the original 8 on the Wii u although I did play a bunch of Mk7 for a few weeks until the 3DS servers shut down
THIS GAME WILL NEVER DIE!!! The people we have running this game are incredible and will definitely stick around!!!! Congrats on 500k!!
This game will definitely not die even as it continues to get older and older, due to more glitch strategies being discovered, custom tracks, and so much more.
We can only hope that Nintendo doesn’t do the stupidest thing ever and that their fans would praise them for "protecting their IPs and preventing illegally made custom servers from running".
4 years ago, you found your last worldwide footage. And now we’ve got his very very last races on Nintendo WFC!
5 years ago actually but yeah.
legendary video
I remember being so sad when this was removed. Thank god for Wimmfii and CTGP and all these other online modes.
I’ve been waiting for this day for a while, im so happy you released this! thanks for the content, the clan wars have always been my favourite
the wii will forever be iconic tbh
Love seeing this piece of history! Thanks for sharing this Troy
been watching your content on and off for several years now - congrats on the 500k! this video felt like a blast from the past, i can't believe its already been over 10 years...
This would be one of my most prized videos if I were you! You have ALOT of great content, but this video just hits different! Been watching for about 8 years now, and man, it's been a great journey! Happy 500k dude, it's well deserved
This is true nostalgia in its purest form. Thank you TWD98 for all the memories growing up watching you do Clan Wars and having it come full circle to today.
Everything I’m witnessing for this uploaded video content is arguably the greatest commentary from Troy with his replays from exactly a decade ago! Same TWD98 time, same TWD98 channel!
What a fun video. That is how I still race. I wish I would’ve known all these years mkwii was still rocking. I got back on about a year ago and I was so far behind the curve that it just left me discouraged. Everyone had an additional 9 years of practice that I missed out on. I just got creamed. The magic is different than what it used to be back on the nintendo servers :(
CONGRATS ON 500k, Ive loved ur content since 2018, its sad to see the MKwii servers shut down, but thank god for wimmfi
congrats on 500k! lots of hard work into this channel
This was simpler times when you didn't need any accounts of any subscriptions. All you needed was an internet connection and a finished game disc with no need for patches, I wish we could go back
The DS only required 1 game cartridge for multiplayer
It's because of that that it was shut down. Can't run a server at a loss.
@@davidmcgill1000 It's P2P. So there's pretty much no cost for them to run it. If it was dedicated servers I would understand but Switch servers are still P2P. Youre just paying to connect your console to another so it's a scam
What a great way to honor Memorial Day: remembering what we lost.
I have been watching Troy's content since the original road to 9999 vr on custom tracks. Crazy to think that even back then Wiimifi was still being used, and today it is just as popular as ever.
The OG Road to 9's was what made me come back to him after a year and a half due to him taking his break and I watched him more so up until around early 2019 but came back later that year.
Glad to see you’re still doing more Mario Kart Wii Videos
I watched your reaction to the other races you had May 20th a couple months ago and made a note to check if you uploaded these races like you said in that video from idek how long ago, at least a couple years. Respect for keeping your word big bro
I was in high school when this video came out, now I’m two years out of college. Time really does fly when you’re having fun! So thanks for helping me through the pandemic and whenever I needed some cheering up, your videos were the ones I turned to. I hope things in Cali are going well :)
I love these kinds of videos about, well, things getting shut down... Great watch, thank you.
been waiting for this one since your 5 year wiimmfi anniversary video!
I love how 3-4 other racers went for the glitch with you. It was almost like a little victory dive.
Thanks for the footage, Troy! Can't believe it's been 10 years since Nintendo WFC shut down.
YESSS I've been waiting so long for thissss, love it!!
That thumbnail had me panicked for a sec 😅
Wish I had the knowledge you have for this game! Great video!
10 years! i remember my last race online it was with somone named Princesss 1v1 in a race did the wheelie dance, then we also played battle nobody was online and some how i played with the same player Princess really fun!
wow that BCWii bomb-omb was crazy, the fact that you saved a 10 year old video and post it today end of Gen Z is amazing! also yea the line you play are weird like safe lines not like you play today soo cool watching, how did mogie clans wars start back then? i dont think discord was a thing back then how did it work? oh skyp calls that wow! amazing video bro!
I didn’t play that time but can imagine how it felt getting taking personally i would be very sad if mk8 deluxe got taking down😢😢
We will all remember you forever😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
How fitting that you hit 500K right at the time that you previously promised to make a big video on a major occasion in MKWii's life, to commemorate its 10th anniversary.
Congrats on 500K, Troy!
I love that you came back to the game, and so many people still play it. The community gave it so much more life, to an already great game.
I remember crying an entire night when I saw the servers shut down. Amazing to see how hard this community has worked to keep this game alive. MKW forever 🔥
And you have now reached 500K Subs too! 👏👏
Congrats for 500k!!
Watched that video! I can’t believe he actually remembered this
congrats on 500k troy !
yo Troy, 500k subscribers! Congrats man!👍😀
thanks so much for uploading this
Ten years already? Time goes by so quickly 😭
Best Mario kart Wii channel ❤
I forgot to say congratulations for 500k subscribers
need more high level wars again from you Troy!
I really appreciate you going back and explaining how we all felt at the time. It's easy to forget with everything we have nowadays, but I think a lot of people were wondering if they were ever going to play again in 2014.
What's crazy is that some of the people playing MKwii today will never remember the old wifi
It's amazing to think this was 10 years ago, and yet the community is still going strong even now with wiimmfi. Never stop keeping MKWii alive, we love the content
Really cool that you used Swan Lesson from Art Academy at the beginning of the video. It's never used anywhere and the first time I listened to it was in Smash Ultimate. It fitted the MKWII online shutdown recap.
Congrats on 500k
Mario Kart Wii for years had me thinking it was my internet😭
SAME!!
24:04 fib snipe was nuts
Crazy how times like this fly by…unbelievable!
FR Zach! I was only 9 or so when WFC went down and I never played the game back then and only just started playing the game 4 years ago.
That wasn’t just a hood classic, this video deserves to be in a museum!
but seriously, we need more troy commenting on how his style of playing is different from 2014 or earlier troy because I really like seeing and hearing about the inputs he makes and what he does compared to now!
I remember playing MKWii Online on the last day. It was such a weird feeling knowing it would be the last time. That day really had a strange atmosphere
What a sad landmark, am I right😢😢
I'm glad that there is the possibility of recording things so that it doesn't just remain a memory but an experience that you can share with thousands of other people, very efficient and kinda magical
This was really great to watch. I was quite invested in Mkwii during 2012-2014!
troy you are the reason why i made a yt channel🤣 i mean my pfp is still my mkw mii ! really glad to see you still going man
Feels good to have some reaction content!
Not the Troy video I expected, but the Troy video I needed 🙏
Well, at least we got Wiimmfi to take the helm now. It'll give us more generations of online play and then some.
epic gameplay. Reminds me of videos I watched in like 2010
HES BACK WITH FUNKY KONG DANCING!!!!!!
To think, most of the people playing the game still weren't born when we began playing mkwii in April 2008, We've had Double Bullets, iS, A*, Flow, Rv, all top class clans that forged friendships from all over the world, all for 5v5 Wars at 3am for brits and americans, can honestly say it was the best childhood we could've had game wise! Hope lifes treating you a treat Troy
20102 will never be tthe same code again
That lava glitch is legendary
Don't know if I'm late, but happy 500k!
After about 2 years of not touching the Wii, about 2 or 3 weeks ago, I got back into MKWii and the Nintendo WFC shutdown was the first reason why i got back into the game, can't wait to see that clan war!
Been watching since circa 2011 and the MKCinema days. First started watching Troy when I was around 9 or 10, and now im almost 23 going into Pharmacy School next semester. Time flies.
I was too young to do mario kart wii online but i was there when the 3ds server shut down when i was playing mario kart 7.
Alright so when are we playing another clan war?
did you play with him ?
@@LIXOUALeBgfrozen is the best Mkw war player currently so he is pushing for Troy to shed light to competitive scene.
@@jamomkw i know i watch his videos
@@LIXOUALeBg ah gotcha
I remember playing mk wii online years ago. I just stopped playing after some time, never knowing the servers got shut down until later on. It’s crazy that this was all 10 years ago
It's so crazy that probably most if not all players in the room except Troy have not played mario kart in years.
They probably have a wife, children even.
Time flies
I remember not having internet for like a year or two and when I finally got a Wii again I found out the online servers shut down, I’m still devastated to this day 😭😭😭
