When playing Mario Kart Wii online there seem to be 3 controller categories displayed next to player names;
none – normal wii controller/controller + nunchuck.
white steering wheel – being hardcore and using the steering wheel.
gold steering wheel – ???.
What is the gold steering wheel and what does it signify?
Answer
Various FAQs claim that you get the Gold Wheel display for “playing with the wheel a lot”, but give no more detailed information.
However, the outcome of this discussion as well as this thread indicate that the following critera need to be met:
- You have to have raced at least 100 races.
- You need to have used Wii Wheel as your controller more than 50% of the time.
That last link is on the official Mario Kart Wii forums and cites the official game guide, so it seems pretty trustworthy.
