      the wheel because of motion controls is actually the most pecise controller if you use it well. you can not control how sharp you turn easily on joystick, same sharpness each time, motion controls you have exact control of the turn angle, giving wheel pros an undeniable advantage.

    I main the Wii Remote + Nunchuk because of how faster it feels. I used to main the GameCube Controller until I found out in one race that I actually outrunned everyone and almost passed through the racer in 12th place when using the Nunchuk. I am already used to all the control schemes, so switching is very easy (aside from the Wii Remote only) but the Nunchuk feels simpler and I am very good with it.

    If your playing GCN controller, just curl your right index finger over the "a" button and use your right thumb to press the arrow pad. You will have to use your right middle finger to hop as well. I find this the most efficient way of using the GCN controller, because you have ever button covered.

    I'd honestly be surprised if no one has modded MKWii to remap tricks to one of the shoulder buttons for CC/CCP and GCN.

  • @BouncingKetchup

    I used to use wheel when I first played the game because it was the only way I knew of, I got decent at it then I was racing my dad, and he was using nunchuk. He tried to get me to use it because 'motion controls bad' pretty much, it took AGES to convince me to try it but once I did I never looked back.
    (also I genuinely didn't know about the directional trick thing, I have been doing up tricks only my entire life, thanks for that)

    I've been using the Wii Wheel for 3 years now. It's really not that bad if you spend a lot of time with it. I can do wheelies and tricks consistantly. My only problem with it is that the inside drift bikes can't turn in the air, which is a problem on a lot of tracks. Therefore, I use karts on the harder tracks and bikes on the easier tracks. I do have a Classic Controller Pro, but I don't use it because of how I have to use my left hand to both drift and do wheelies/tricks.

    Instead of clawing the GCN you can use the right thumb for the dpad and your index to press a. Took me a long time to get used to it but it works for me.

    • @Arcintel
      @Arcintel  4 роки тому

      That's right! The CCP's thumbsticks are actually the same as the nunchuck, and for my GCN I played melee before mkwii competitively, and it was ok to do things like swap the sticks and raise the triggers, so I did so XD

    • @TrevorRS05
      @TrevorRS05 4 роки тому +1

    Surprisingly I mastered the wheel after a few years. I tried nunchucks but I didn’t like it, my coordination was funny so I preferred the wheel.
    I never had issues with inputs until the controller and what not became aged.

    @finnplays0 3 роки тому +1

    I have largely only played mkwii with the wheel. And let me tell you, in the beginning, it was not pretty. I was constantly crashing into walls and it was really hard, and that kinda discouraged me, but I kept at it. And it took me literal years to be able to get precise movements with it and not be veering out of control constantly. But wow is it worth it, because once you get the hang of it, it feels so good. To be able to accomplish those precise inputs and and to flex on people when you beat them with wheel, totally worth it.

    I think players are better off just finding the right time to move the left thumb between the left stick and control pad in either the GameCube controller or Classic Controller (either original or pro). At least for me, I can't say claw is a comfortable way to play Mario Kart Wii or 8.

  • @TroyTheDragonYoshi
    @TroyTheDragonYoshi 4 роки тому +2

    I use nunchuck on tracks that are oriented around lines, and some of the best time trailers like Luke, Fox and Totem use it. On tracks oriented about chaining wheelies I use the GCN controller, since that controller is more comfortable for me to use compared to the pro controller. :P

    I have spent my entire life using the wheel accessory. I have raced about 2,000 races on my account that I have had for less than half my life. And on my other account about another 1,000. And I’ve had brothers so I spent a good thousand games as player two. If I even tried switching controllers I would fail miserably.

    I use a grip you didnt mention but it works really well (for GCN). I put my right thumb on the d-pad, my middle finger on the R button and index finger on the A button. I hold my index finger against the a button sort of sideways, so it kinda hurts, but it works well because A is almost always held down.

    I really don't know how to 'block' (it's more like reducing damage) a POW. When you shake the wheel during the animation of the pow you can kind of keep your momentum. You can do tricks with the d-pad but it doesn't work for the pow.
