Size-Specific Characteristics
Characters are divided into three
weight classes based on their
size—light, medium, and heavy. In
the chart on the right, the more stars,
the better the rating.
Mario is familiar to racers one
and all. With a balance of
abilities, he is a racer suited
to all situations.
The characters and karts you can choose from will
increase as you play through the game. Each
character has three karts to choose from, except Shy
Guy.
Wireless Communication Guidelines:
During wireless game play, an icon will appear on either the upper or lower displays showing the signal strength of the
wireless signal. The icon has four modes depending on the signal strength, as shown below.
• Begin with the distance between systems at about 30 feet or less and move closer or farther apart as
desired, keeping the signal strength at two or more bars for best results.
• Keep the maximum distance between systems at 65 feet or less.
• The systems should face each other as directly as possible.
• Avoid having people or other obstructions between the DS systems.
• Avoid interference from other devices. If communication seems to be affected by other devices (wireless
LAN, microwave ovens, cordless devices, computers), move to another location or turn off the interfering
device.
