Hi to the other mods here. I know I'm a mod now but I wanted to ask for permission on this (also don't know how to do it). My friend runs a Martial Champion Discord server and I'd love to pin it to the main page of this game so other fans can get involved in the community.

Is that okay, and also if it is, how do I do that? :D

@BOSSCAT @DBcade @NintenLew Thanks!

After a few runs the other day I was perplexed as to why my "Hardest" difficulty run was a minute quicker than my run on "Easiest." I showed my run to my friend (he and I are kind of superfans of this game), and he noted that both myself and the computer's damage output had nearly doubled on "Hardest." So I guess if you want a quicker time overall, jack the difficulty up! :D

Personally, I like this damage output increase. The game already felt pretty volatile, but now it's just nuts! XD

Hey there! So sometimes there are instances in this game where in my heart, I know I'm pressing jump and it feels as if the game just eats my input. This usually happens after I'm landing for a jump, or sometimes close to the edge of a platform or ledge. The best way I can describe it is that it feels like Mikey can only jump during certain frames of his walk animation. It's probably my own error, but I was wondering if anyone else has felt this phenomenon or if there was a technical explanation for it. Thanks!

This game is pretty much unplayable in a competitive setting if one or both players know the secret tech. That secret being that there is relatively no recovery frames on certain characters' projectiles, and that almost all attacks have an infinitely extending hitbox which reaches above and below the sprites.

The real challenge of this run is being patient with a bit of RNG dealing with the enemy hopefully moving closer to you, and not you having to move closer to them. Past that point, it's about launching off as many attacks as you can, and being in the right spot to perform a Round-1 fatality. Performing a Round-1 fatality is a trick or a glitch, and it's also why the 100% run of this game can be shorter than the Any% or any run where you do not make it to the final boss due to not performing enough fatalities.

Hey there. I was wondering if anyone would mind about this possible rule change for when running a full-cup attempt.

Before I was made a Moderator of this game, I believe the rule was that for any failed attempts you must quit out and begin from the beginning. I asked about this rule change for Individual tracks (to save time on having to quit to the menu over and over) and another Moderator said that would be acceptable. So for individual tracks, you can just restart and do not need to quit to the track selection screen. That's very nice and cuts down on time spent in runs.

I would like to ask that the same rule be applied to the full-cup runs when you are in the first track of the race. I understand it looks nice to have the full-cup runs start from the track selection screen and show the first track being played, but having to quit out to the menu adds about 10-15 seconds of time spent just waiting for loads.

If you have any thoughts, let me know what you think of this, I will still go forward with the old rules for now until other community members chime in - or at some point I might get tired of quitting out of the cup just to have to re-enter it, and I'll change the rule myself lol.

All the best! ThatPunk_MachRider

Hi there. I'm wondering why I cannot find Mega Man 4 anywhere on this site. Am I losing it, or is there a reason there are no runs for it? Thanks in advance!

Hey there! I don't see an entry for Mega Man 4 and was wondering if there's a reason for that. Maybe I'm blind, but I don't see it anywhere :/. Thanks in advance!

Hey there! I have searched for ages but not found an existing Discord Server for Excitebike World Rally, so I made one myself!

I have included instructions on how to take the game back online for races, as well as other setup instructions for Wii and Emulation. If you're a fan of the game, consider joining the other bikers who have assembled at the starting line!

Just saying, even though this server is MINE, it's for the GAME specifically - so I don't shill my own stuff there besides WR attempts lol.

Does anybody here want to ever get races online? It is possible with some modifications, and I would love to race with some of the best :D

Hi there. Do IL runs need to start from the main menu to count, or while in an attempt can I just restart the race? The answer to this will decide if I waste time quitting to the Cup screen or not with every failed attempt!

Thank you!
