Unlock Baby Luigi on Mario Kart Wii
You've got Baby Mario in Mario Kart Wii, but what's the point if he can't race against his baby brother? Baby Luigi is one of the most difficult characters to unlock in the game, mainly due to how many races you have to beat. There are a couple different ways to unlock Baby Luigi. See Step 1 below to learn how.

Steps
Unlocking Expert Staff Ghosts
- Start the Time Trials. You will need to unlock 8 Expert Staff Ghosts. Ghost Data are replays that you can race against during a time trial. Expert Staff Ghosts have to be unlocked by beating the regular Staff Ghost data for each track. Staff Ghosts have "Nin★" next to their names.
- Select Single Player from the main menu. Select Time Trials.
- Choose any character. You will need to race at the top of your game, so pick a character and cart your are comfortable with.
- Choose any course. You will need to beat at least eight courses, so pick courses you know well. This will save you a lot of frustration.
- Select the Staff Ghost data. After selecting the course, you will be able to choose which replay data you want to use. Pick the one that says "Nin★" next to the name.
- Race the ghost. The race will start and you will see the ghost on the track with you. You will need to beat the ghost by around 7 seconds to unlock the Expert Ghost. The number of seconds required seems to vary from ghost to ghost, so always try to put as much space between it as possible.
- You will see a message at the bottom of your screen after the race informing you that "A fast staff ghost has appeared!"
- You will not need to beat the Expert Ghost, simply unlock it.
- Repeat until you've unlocked eight Expert Staff Ghosts. Beat the regular Staff Ghost on eight different courses to unlock eight Expert Staff Ghosts.
- Once you unlock the eighth ghost, you have to go back to the Select Player menu first before Baby Luigi is unlocked! Quit the game, then go back to the Main Menu, onto the Select Player screen.
- Choose the player profile that you used for the Time Trial races. Finished! You'll see a message saying "Congratulations! You have unlocked Baby Luigi!"
Racing 3,150 Times
- Race as much as possible. If you can't defeat the Staff Ghosts, you can still unlock Baby Luigi by racing 3,150 times. Any Race or Battle counts towards this total, but Time Trials do not count.
- Both online and offline Races and Battles count.
Tips
- He's tied with Baby Daisy for having the best speed bonus in the game, which makes vehicles like the Bullet Bike have a slightly higher top speed than normal.
- He also has the biggest bonus, along with Baby Mario, in the game, which is his weight bonus that significantly increases the weight of his kart.
