You only need a * to unlock Mission 7. I don't think there is anything higher than that because I've already checked on other sites.

I wouldn't be surprised if nobody even HAS *** in everything.

Nintendo usually don't put bonuses requiring that much skill in, but even * is still tricky.

What kind of annoys me is completing mission 7 (with a Single star rank no less...) gets you NOTHING. No extra tracks, no secret characters, nothing.

The only thing I could think of is something unlocked in conjuction with Grand Prix AND Mission Mode.

Colin... *I* have every thing ***-ranked. And every staff ghost beaten.

Blocking blue shells is easy, you just throw an item so as to hit yourself with it just prior to the blue shell striking and use the invincibility time from it to avoid the effects of the blue shell.

This was put in a different thread. That just shows you some good ways to get faster times. It takes practice. And it's not impossible if someone's done it. And is there a staff ghost for Waluigi Pinball because one isn't showing up for me. Also, anyone really good at startup because I'm not good at it. If you could just help me out with that that would be nice.

Start holding the gas about halfway between the two and the one... that should get you your rocket start...

Yeah, the rocket start can be a bit finicky. I just hold the gas when the '2' is about halfway faded out.

I found that out, through my sister... who played the game more than me.

But as soon I get it back, i'm going to start over as I said. xD Watch me playing it alot tomorrow when i'm back at the dorm.

Later this week I check if the local stores have that... wireless adaptor thing.

On a somewhat related note, I have learned how much fun rainbow road is with a heavy character compared to a light character --

150CC R. Road With Dry Bones's Dry Bomber = NOT COOL.

Bowser in R.O.B's multi-colored car (forgot the name) = Shove people off the track :O

Blue shells still really suck on the dash ramps. No avoiding that though, since blue shells suck period

On a more related note, I have an overall single star rank I still can't snake for crap, but I've managed to beat... one staff ghost anyway (The one at Sky Garden).

Beating Grand Prix didn't unlock anything with the missions like I was hoping, but whatever....

For 150 CC and Mirror Mode on Rainbow Road, I just use the Banisher instead of the Dry Bomber because the Banisher is less likely to be sent flying by a heavy cart. I still got *** using that cart.

People, people, its easy...

Just get in 8th until the first item block, PRAY that you get a bullet bill, and let it fly after the first loop.

Youll have a monster lead in no time! XD

Or you can take your time on a track, work your way up to 3rd (which would be enough for Gold) and then get hit with TWO shells in a row, fall off the track and end up in 7th with Bronze.

Why yes, I'm a little bitter.

I once got hit by 3 blue shells in one lap on rainbow road.

Now that sucks A.LOT.

That's just bad luck.

I got lucky once when I got nailed with the blue shell right near the finish, but so did my closest rival... so in the end I won by a few hundredths of a second. :\

Eh. Luck can swing the other way, too, y'know... For example, in a recent match, items owned me and I ended up taking third first match and last second, but then won overall due to convenient placing of everyone else in the next match due to the way items hit everyone, since I was quite lucky in those matches. Delfino Plaza, Yoshi Circuit, Choco Island 2, Luigi's Mansion.

While I hadn't beaten all staff ghosts in the older Mario kart games, I must say... it's not really hard. Getting three stars on everything is probably harder though.

You must be unfamiliar with SSMTing then... as most staff ghosts fall prey to this quite easily...

And you just KNOW you had a lead when you can hit a car/smowball/fall off the edge, and STILL beat the ghost.
