If you're one of the many thousands unwrapping a 3DS console and/or Mario Kart 7, you probably want to try out its really rather good online modes.
We've put together not one, not two, but three official Nintendo Life racing communities for you to take part in. Here's how to get involved:
- Load up Mario Kart 7
- Install the Mario Kart Channel — this is your best way to keep up to date with MK goings-on
- Head over to Online Multiplayer
- Select Communities, then Join
- Click Enter Code and enter these delightful digits:
150cc — All Items — 00-2104-5343-9763
150cc — Bob-ombs Only — 52-6562-9908-9924
150cc — No Items — 04-0673-3404-8527
You might even run into the odd Nintendo Life staff member online!
Happy racing and Merry Christmas from everyone at Nintendo Life.

Sweet. Got this game last night and I'm ready to play.
Wish I got a 3DS for my xmas present, but given I have so many other games systems maybe not getting one isn't such a bad idea. Darn you JRPGs in my backlog!
Think I'm getting one today!!!!
I've been trying to play with you guys all day, no one showed up.
I'll Join later Guys Just going to get ready for the day ahead!
Bah! Humbug!
I'll race you all later
Merry Christmas everyone Been lurking for ages and registered just for this post! I'll join you all for a race sometime soon.
sadly, no MK7 for me (yet), here's hoping for it tonight!
I've got it saved, but I probably won't do any racing until I've done more single player practice.
The odd staff? You mean like theblackdragon, whom I keep beating over and over again >:3
I'm in but first I must finish off all of the cups. See you tonight
do u got any game schedule? everytime i try i cant find anyone playing T_T
im m7 hungry for community gameplay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm in the no items community section now, anyone wanna play
@lz: pff, i've handed you your tailfeathers plenty of times >:3
Have to add these later . I actually have plenty of different communities from different sites but there's no players so I just end up racing in worldwide. Hopefully these will be more alive...
I hope no one chooses Maku Wuhu. Also, how do you install mario kart channel?
@brandonbwii: tap the 'mario kart channel' banner at the bottom of the main MK7 menu. it'll tell you it has to install data onto the SD card or whatever. :3
I want to play you guys but the servers down or something. It won't let me go online. >.>
I can't online either unable to connect to server it says! Well that sucks
Huh, the server is blocking others too then. Wow the difficultly spikes after 100cc, I was getting all 3 star ranks but the 150cc are proving too hard. Also I'm also Aqueous online.
edit: working now
How would we know we were playing staff?
Sadly I have to wait 1 to 2 weeks for my 3ds to arrive because "Santa" ordered it at the last minute... But then I will join this community
I'm in now!
I'll join these after I play some single player. Gotta unlock some tracks first...
You'll see me there!
i got mario kart 7 today for Christmas!! im going to try this out
come join my bob- bomb community 150 cc racing with just bombs
69 5484 0641 5293
Im in played with 2 dudes one of which was really good look forward to more racing today Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas everyone. Did you all get the Blue Spiney I sent you?
Got this for christmas and joined right away, by the way im Yamato if you see me.
MERRY CHRISTMAS!! I LOVE MARIO KART 7, but I think the server is down now... I'm kinda sad... Oh, and by the way, get ready to EAT MY DUST!!
I got the game today. I'll join as soon as my 3DS recharges.
By the way, is there any chance of you guys creating a Nintendo Life 50cc community?
still hoping for an official balloon battle community
PLEASE LISTEN UP! BASIC ETIQUETTE!
When joining a community, DON'T immediately start the race — especially if people are sending the 'Let's wait for more players' message. Remember, the more people you're racing with, the more fun you'll have! It'll autostart on its own after a minute or two, so please have the courtesy to wait for others!
Also, anyone caught using either of the Wuhu glitches to get a cheap win in the Nintendo Life communities WILL be publicly named and shamed. No one wants to race with a cheater, so just enjoy the tracks for what they are — they're great when everyone plays fairly!
The all item one seems to be the only one with people on. Also if you see this it was an honour getting to race you Thomas Whitehead. Hope to race you guys all soon.
Edit: Join me for a race theblackdragon?
@Aqueous: I've got one last GP to three-star in Mirror Mode, and then i'll join everyone else :3
@theblackdragon - sounds good there are two of us currently.
Edit: sorry it started
I've went on a couple of times but havent seen anybody on there. I'll try a bit more in the new year.
@Fuzzy - we are playing right now
I was going to look for the old post concerning the Mario Kart 7 communities and then found this one as featured news... Christmas miracle!
@Tanookii13 - I am Aqueous, my mii character, I'm sitting waiting to play
I'm ready now Tanookii13
All items, but I can change to what you prefer, join us there is 3 now
edit: it begins
are you in Tanookii13?
I had 3 people, now 1 is left....?
What? I was in with three other people, on the second race and got knocked out..... Maybe it's our bad connection or my brothers on the new 360. I'll catch everyone another time, hopefully I'll have unlocked some more worth while parts.
@Aqueous. Damn, don't have my 3DS on me at the moment. Hopefully another time.
I must say, I'm pretty good with Rosalina and Bowser.
I will start playing once I get my VR above 10,000 for the golden kart. Remember, racing in communities you do not gain VR, only World Wide.
Two of us are waiting in All Items at the moment. If anyone's looking for others - join us now. Before I die of boredom. D:
For hard core battle, type the code 66-8683-4686-7787
Do
it
now!
Will everyone please change the name of their Mii to their username, please? Also, can TBD please friend me and race me? You know where to find my FC! Thanks, everyone!
Hey! I'm new and gonna join, as I've been lurking for a while. While I've only just got the game and only beat/triple-starred the 50cc, so I hope I can at least provide a moderate challenge...
I also really need to get to a computer to upload my avatar.
OK, online now!
I'm Alberto, mii with glasses and green shirt. I think my name is fine, right? (Not my user name)
I just played chaps by the names of Punny, Aidan, Sam, Matt, et al. They were some good races!
I got MK7 for Christmas and will be getting on this community soon!
Joined
I have very bad luck catching people online.
Well complete all cups but trying get 3 stars on 150cc and mirror is nightmare and still think blue spikey shell is waste of time! How does help last player ill never know? :-
Just joining now after getting the game with Christmas money. I want to try to complete all of the cups first though before I put much effort into the online mode.
(I'll show up as Chris since I don't feel like changing my name)
I'm having fun losing to you all in the online Mario kart! With more practice, hopefully I'll be able to win once in a while. . It's a heck of a good time. Also, after I joined the all items group, I got about forty new people in my street pass plaza. They all say "by invitation". Is this normal? It's cool regardless, but I was just curious. It's too bad that the "by invitation" folk aren't added to my streetpass world map.
Yea i see this to! I wish could got some puzzle pieces off them or like you said added to quest 2 adventure! :-
just raced someone called master.i won all 4 races,had to be done with a name like that lol.
Just joined these.I'm Paul from UK.C u online peeps.Eat ma dust
These are awesome!!
I'M LEAVING NINTENDO LIFE AND GOING TO NINTENDO AFTER LIFE IF I CRASH IN THE RACE!
@Aqueous: You think that's bad? I've never been able to connect to online matches because my brother has an Xbox 360 and iPod Touch that he always uses, and he as well as myself and both my parents have laptops. I also have an Xbox 360, and when I try to use mine, the internet acts up because my brother is already on and is hogging the bandwidth. He says I'm just trying to blame him. It stinks.
does anyone wanna join my game wanna get a good game going
150 cc all items race
54 7436 5412 6010
I add your community tonight !
do u know what pisses me off?
people who use the glitch on Wu Hu Island coz they are to unskilled to win a race with actual skill they have to cheat to win. The same people race on the other tracks and i kick there
I hope there 3DS breaks
to all the non cheaters who wanna play fair or as fair as can be when it comes to blues lol.
come join me 54 7436 5412 6010
@PinkSpider: If these people are using the Wuhu glitches in the official NL communities, by all means, name them here! No one wants to race with a cheater, so knowing exactly who doesn't want to play fair gives us the option of bailing and looking for another group of people to play with.
@theblackdragon
I will
