MISSION 7-1
Perform 6 power-slide turbo boosts in 1 lap! Doesn't sound all that hard, but then again Rainbow Road isn't exactly the easiest course ever made. The turns are certainly long enough to Drift Boost around, it's just that most of them are on such an angle that you're liable to slide right off before the turn is complete. No matter however, practice makes perfect and there are more than enough turns in the level to allow you to reach your goal. Do it quickly and perhaps you'll even net yourself a good ranking.MISSION 7-2
Reach the finish before Bowser! The course is nearly the same with a few minor difference. Barriers have been placed in your way at the beginning meaning you must go around to either the left or right side. Barriers have also been placed after the spinning section. Basically this means that you're forced to take the second exit beyond the fire columns rather than the first one. The biggest difference is that there is a barrier at the opposite end of the spinning cylinder, so jump off right away when you reach it and drive for the other exit. The rest of the course is the same from here, and as always if you're having trouble with your opponent, the game gives you more than enough Stars to deal with him.MISSION 7-3
Complete 2 laps within the time limit! It's purely a race, but what a race it is. The clock is moving much faster than usual, and has a couple of extra swinging pendulums. This means there are a couple things to keep in mind during the race. Since things are spinning faster, the clock hands are more dangerous and more likely to hit you. Spinning or moving sections will benefit you even more if you allow their movement to help your momentum, especially the spinning gears right before the finish line. Use the course itself to your advantage to beat the clock on this one.MISSION 7-4
Use shells to defeat all 30 Goombas within the time limit! Unlike the one where you had to eliminate the crabs, there are ONLY 30 Goombas here so make sure you kill every single one of them around you before proceeding. Run into them with the shells spinning around you so that you don't have to aim perfectly, however if you're going for a high ranking then you'll probably have to fire shells more often so that you don't waste time going from Goomba to Goomba individually. It's easy to do as long as you don't accidentally miss any of themMISSION 7-5
Collect all 20 coins! Let's be honest with ourselves. Missions are challenging, but they're not DIFFICULT. This mission is the first real "difficult mission." The reason for this is as follows: you have to align yourself perfectly in advance before each Booster Pad in order to get the airborne coins. if you miss them there's not much you can do besides start the whole level over again. For this reason you must drive perfectly not just during key parts of the mission, but through the entire mission itself all the way to the end where one of the hardest alignments occurs. Don't get me wrong, it can easily be done in only a couple of tries, but the fact that so many people have difficulty with this mission is understandable to say the least. Never jump after going over one of the boost jumps. Note that when you reach the four pads in a row with all the mud, you can grab the first coin without hitting the pad. The final couple of coins are positioned in mid-air between some fiery rings. Make sure to use the alignment of the coins before it to accurately aim yourself. It's not easy.MISSION 7-6
Drive through all 8 numbered gates in order! This is an all-or-nothing mission. You can try and get through all the gates normally but you'll almost certainly run out of time. It is meant to be done all in a single drift. Boost right from the start and then begin your drift, controlling your kart through each of the arches around once, and then again for a second lap. You'll only have a second or two left a the end, but if you do it without hitting a wall then there's pretty much no ranking you can get besides three stars.MISSION 7-7
Drive backward and collect all 12 coins! If you hit a burner, you fail! Everything here is straightforward, there aren't any hidden coins or anything like that. Here are a couple of tricks to use. First, the crates can be broken by backing into them (this actually isn't very useful at all from what I can tell, if you can find a practical use, feel free to use it.) A better trick is use the R trigger and hop around corners to help you turn faster. It really works and will go a long way toward getting a good ranking on this level. Drive straight through the coins at the end when the fire columns are out of your way and that's it, mission complete.MISSION 7-8
Break all 10 item boxes while avoiding the Fake Items! You've done this before on the Choco Mountain, now you're doing it again. There are plenty of ways to tell which box is real. It has a question mark in it, it spins, it's not red like the fake boxes are on your map. Personally I use the fact that it's spinning to tell which is real from a distance. Most of them are obvious however there are a couple of tricksters and both come in the haunted house section. When you see the red arrow pointing you to the right, go left instead and just over the small gap to your left like I described in the stage's strategy above. Just after you do you'll find a somewhat well hidden item box you may have missed if you went the other way. The second thing is to note that the line of boxes at the end of the haunted house doesn't have a single real box, you have to go around the left side to find it.Boss Stage
Reach the finish before Wiggler! Wiggler is the true final boss and you have to race him through three laps to reach the finish line. Probably not the hardest mission in the game but definitely the hardest race. You'll need to use the Mushrooms and Stars to get you across the shortcut in every single lap otherwise you'll probably have no chance of winning. After using a Star you can drive straight through traffic without being affected, but don't try and knock out the Wiggler, unfortunately that doesn't work. Make sure you're a decent distance ahead by the final lap because he gets pretty angry.Warning: require(../footer.php) [function.require]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/kakashi/public_html/mario-kart-ds/mission-7.php on line 169
