how does it work? TCP/IP support, so player 1 and 2 connect ona shared session! 
it supports a 6button pad yes. it supports any directinput device
also did you know you cna get adapters to plug in SNES controllers onto a PC
they also do adapters for PS1/2 N64, XBOX etc. etc. pretty handy... search ebay

Nooo, I'm not searching e-bay for console stuff, I'll spend a fortune. My silver PS2 had 2 extra silver controllers with it when I sold it on e-bay, sooo would love another megadrive, or a snes

I got sworn at the other night when my sky reminder switched some program on just as he was finishing his lap!!
I may have a go tonight and see how my reactions to this game are (If i can pry the controller from Neil's hands )

My times were all with Bowser. Can't remember how I did it as it was well over 10 years ago now. In fact I'm impressed the cartridge still remembers the times, I though it was battery backed up, must be that writeable memory stuff instead.
What's your best time, I'll check mine.

I checked this morning and there isnt anything, so I will have a go later tonight and get a pic up, that one is still fresh for me played that track not long ago in one of our Mario Kart challenges
I cant beat my old times so far (in pics) but getting closer and very close to my old best lap
really struggling to see how you did 1 min 1 but if you did then fair play

lol poor excuse!
1st Donut Plains is a great track, its the only track other than rainbow road where I whoop my mate, we are dead even other than those two tracks to teh point where if one misses a good start chances are tehy are coming second!
I'll try and get more pics up tonight if I beat my mario circuit one time, and a pic of donut plains time
The current challenge is still set for Mario Circuit 1 though, to allow DaveEscos etc to catch up

You can tell it's about 10 years since I last played it. My first go was in the 1'20s, I managed to get it down to a 1'04".3 later on and my best lap today was a 12.52. If I leave the console alone for a few mins tho it seems to crash, so I think it might be getting abit old.

I dont think the wireless I "borrow" from next door would be reliable enough
plus I dont have a controller adapter but seriously looking into it

i want to see videos of this 1.02-1.01, it must be absolutly perfect from start to finish with no slip ups 
By the way, was these times got by getting a boost off the start line on the 1st lap?

yeah you need a good start, if I dont get a quick start I automatically start again!
best way to get your time down is to race you ghost....
We have seen pics of the 1 min 2 times... I cant see how it is possible to get that close but it can obviously be done!
