Gah! I can’t do the second retro cup on 150cc! I just can’t do well in all the races. It’s weird. I didn’t have a problem until now and suddenly I’m rubbish. Weird.

And I just went online and played !niggle! (yes, that’s the correct name) and he beat me. Horribly. Might have had a chance if bloody Baby Park hadn’t been one of the tracks. Not that I won SNES Mario Circuit or Rainbow Road either, mind. I did at least come first on Luigi’s Mansion, which saved a small shred of my tattered pride.
