All tracks and modes of play are available via Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection, and players can visit the Mario Kart Channel to compete in tournaments, check rankings, see when their friends are playing and download ghost data.
  • Cruise new tracks and arenas or tour classic courses from Super Mario Kart;, Mario Kart; 64, Mario Kart;: Super Circuit;, Mario Kart;: Double Dash!!; and Mario Kart; DS. Tired of riding on four wheels? Bust out one of the new motorbikes for special tricks and techniques.

Special Powers/Weapons/Moves/Features
Whether racing around an obstacle-filled track or battling in an arena, drifting and tossing items are the keys to Mario Kart success.

There are two options for races and battles over Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection: up to 12 people via Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection or up to 10 people via Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection with two people playing locally.

1 out of 5 stars A big step backwards...from the SNES version! Gimmicky.   January 6, 2009
Mr. S. Bennett (london)
Oh dear. Whatever happened to the game i remember on the Super Nintendo??? What was once an exciting, addictive, responsive, challenging game has been reduced to this gimmick. I had to plug in my SNES and play the real thing, such was my disappointment and disbelief at what i'd witnessed on the wii. As mentioned by another reviewer, you feel detatched from the action due mainly to poor control and general randomness of the outcome of both the driving and the races.

What is the point of a driving game that gives you no feel of how well you are doing, other than the race position you currently are in? There is no sense of how fast or slow you are going? If only they had not made the game so messy, with so much going on, and made it more responsive (the inclusion of an option to play using the old style '+' controller would have been nice). I actually found that my driving was more successfull the less i moved the wheel, and, infact, not moving it much meant the kart was almost guided round the easier sections of the track by itself! Driving a real car is so far removed from this game, it's just not funny. Ironic, seeing as Nintendo have introduced steering wheel type control. The steering also has a glitch which means you're turning the wheel hard one way but your kart is turning the other way! Maybe on the next ninendo console it'll be better? I'll be playing the SNES version until then.

Overall: About as exciting as watching the national lottery draw with no ticket. No longevity in this at all. For kids only.

5 out of 5 stars A GREAT GAME FOR EVERYONE!!   January 2, 2009
Mack Ellis
This was one of the first games I bought for my wii and it is one of the best if not the best game i've bought.
It is a very easy game to control that is great for the wii. I play this with my sister and my friends and we all find fun.
I couldn't find a single problem with this game the gameplay's great, the controls are great and the grafics are great. And it even encourages miis (even though you have to unlock them.) Very enjoyble game for hardcore gamers and on/off gamers. :)

Mario Kart is a great game for the whole family to play. Over Christmas, my family and I played a Mario Kart tournament which lasted hours and was a really good laugh. The game play is great and the circuits are all fun. I'd definitely recommend this addictive game!
