 Loads of fun for all ages! November 17, 2008
While not the best thing to look at in the graphics department (especially during multiplayer races), this game manages to be extremely fun. The control scheme(s) are great, and while I am better when using the Wiimote/nunchuch scheme, I find myself wanting to use the Wii Wheel most often because it adds to the fun. The bottom line here is that everyone can enjoy this game, and the multiplayer never gets old. The best thing I can say about this game is that I will be playing it for as long as I own a Wii. A definite must buy for the Wii.
One of Nintendo's best ideas yet November 15, 2008
First of all, I give this game 5 stars because of the overall fun and playability level. You can play other people around the world in battles and races. We have probably spent more time playing this game than any other Nintendo game with the exception of Mario Kart for the N64. I love the "wheel" concept although you don't need a wheel to play. I have a couple complaints: the power ups are kind of lame compared to all of the other Mario Kart games. They are also harder to get it seems. My other complaint is that you can be in first place and end up in near-to-last place in about 3 seconds, it seems you have little control of this. It is almost a fluke if you win, whereas in other Mario Karts it was more directly tied to your skill level. Overall, it is so fun to battle and race people from other countries that I love this game. Sometimes you will be racing people from the UK, the US, France, Japan, and Australia all at once. SO fun! I hope Nintendo comes out with more games like this!
Great Fun for the Whole Family November 14, 2008
Simply put, my wife and I get a kick out of the game, and our 3.5 year old son loves it. We don't really play for points, or winning anything, just mainly to have fun. And this game comes through in spades in that department. The controls are easy, which makes the game playable and fun even for younger kids. It is a must-own for the Wii in my opinion.
lots of fun! November 13, 2008
This game was a lot of fun and easy to figure out. I love that you can play on your own, or with up to four people and all four people are playing at the same time, as opposed to taking turns. Your characters are interactive with each other if you want them to be. So my opponent gets ahead of me, I can fling a turtle at him and temporarily wipe him out ... if I am armed at the time. Lots of fun.
Mario Kart for Wii November 13, 2008
This is coming from someone who played all the Mario Kart series except Super Mario Kart for SNESS and Mario Kart for GBA. I have to say this is a must have for any Wii owner!
The Graphics are beautiful. The screenshots on the back of the box says it all. Racing with the Wii wheel is easy and fun! It sometimes feels like your actually driving if you use your imagination! You can race with the game cube controller or the Wii remote and nunchuk if you want. You can even race with your Mii! But you have to unlock it first.
All the courses are great! Some of the classic race tracks from pass Mario Kart games are on it. Rainbow Road on this game is so beautiful! My favorite Race Track is Mario Circut 3 SNESS. I like it because its a classic and it gives me a chance to race on a track from Mario Kart SNESS which is a game I never had the chance to play.
WiFi is Very fun. I've raced against people all over the world! Its really cool! Fortunately Nintendo eliminated snaking, which had ruined
Wi Fi on Mario Kart DS. But you can pop wheelies on the motorcycles which makes you go slightly faster than the cars. There is also this thing called download Mario Kart Channel. Its when you can download your Mario Kart Stats on you Wii menu.
The bad things are the item frequency. It's unbelievable sometimes! I get hit by 2 blue shells in one lap followed by a red shell which is crazy! But don't listen to the people who say that winning is a gamble. Even though I do get hit by a lot of items, I still almost always make it to either 1st 2and or 3rd place. Another bad thing is, depending on the weight of the character, all the karts are basically the same. No one has their own individual kart so whatever character you pick, its just for eye candy.
Overall this is a great game and I recommend it to anyone who owns a Wii. Thanks for reading!
