Hi!

My name is Sam, but you can call me Obey. I'm 18yo and I have been looking for a game to waste a lot of time in to while I'm at college here in Quebec. My choice is made, MKDD is the winner.

I'm getting my copy of Double Dash tommorow ( cheapest I found near my house is, believe or not, freaking 50 bucks   ), and I am motivated to get good at the game. Like, really good. Wait ... I want to become great at the game ... I want to become a god at Mario Kart : Double Dash !!.

It's pretty simple what lead me to go back on this game, I feel nostalgia. I used to be decent back in 2006 ( I was a kid, obviously ) and I remember watching videos of a player named Swoof from France and trying to immitate his strats in various course.

I haven't played the game in around 8 years now, and haven't really played any other MK title either, so I really am starting from scratch. I am a total noob as of now.

I'm very pumped to pick-up this new challenge, and I'll try to write where I'm at weekly on this thread. I will fix objectives and a period of times to accomplish it later on.

Hopefully the amazing people here will help me on this journey, and we can maybe even bring the DD forum from the dead, who knows.  

I also enjoy streaming a lot, so as soon as I get a capture card, I'll try to stream some gameplay and hopefully attract the MKDD community. To follow my stream or see my channel, you can click here => twitch.tv/youbetterobey

Thank you so much for reading guys, if anyone has any question or comments I'll be happy to answer!

Btw, sorry for my english, I'm french-canadian, forgive me.  

It's always so exciting to see someone start from scratch...

I hope you make your goals in a reasonable timeframe! I'll tell you now, most karters become inactive or retire because they simply run out of persistence and stamina or motivation. Just be careful about keeping your frustration/exhaustion/non-motivation under control, and you'll do fine.  

I have a copy of Double Dash and a GameCube controller
I just need somewhere to play it

Wow, thanks a lot for the support guys!

Today started with kind of a bad news, I won't be able to buy a T.V. until like monday. ;-( At least I bought my copy of the game, so that's done. Let's just say DD is kinda rare & pricy here in Quebec.

I was looking forward to play all day today, but whatever, It'll only be more fun when I'll actually get the  chance to start the journey.

Only thing I'm waiting for is an RCA/VGA adaptor I bought 3days ago on eBay. Hopefuly I get it tommorow so I can finaly start playing the damn game ... I've been waiting for too long.  

Niiiice!! God luck man

...or if you hit a wall, or a dinosaur, or a table, or a fire spinner, or a piranha plant, or a sinkhole, or a goomba, or a pokey, or a mud patch, or a thwomp, or a boulder, or water, or offroad, or if you get missed mt after missed mt after missed mt...

You know, if you already miss 2 MTs in a row, it's a reason to restart... there will never be a 3rd missed MT in a row

I don't get what this post is saying because you can find many places in a home (execpt bathrooms and kitchens) to play it.

You can miss the first one after restarting again though!

Which course are you referring to anyways?
