 ok, not amazing October 14, 2008
I was dying to get this game for the months preceding the release and whem i got it I was somewhat dissapointed. Don't get me wrong, its fun and all but there is a sense that all of the skill has been removed from the game, for example you no longer need to control the power slides with the option to use automatic drift. I do like the new found ability to do tricks and to use motor cycles. The online play is brilliant, the only way they could have made it better would have been to include voice chat but then that would ruin the game for some people. The thing i have always liked about mario-kart games is that amazing levels are met with amazin names and music, I'm not impressed with nintendo's attempts to do that this time, oh well.
In conclusion, borrow this game or pick it up cheep somewhere and if you want to play a grat mario-kart game get one of the predecessors such as "mario kart double dash" or "mario kard DS". Mario kart wii is ok but not amazing.
Fun for the family October 6, 2008
As several people have already stated, this game is fun in a multi player race. If you play it by yourself you will get so angry you are liable to throw the wheel at your tv screen. The flying shells that blow you up right before the finish live, getting knocked off track from behind, actions like these get old really quickly, espeically when you are trying to unlock new courses. Overall, alot of fun to play with your partner or the kids, just don't play it alone!
 Flawed but the best Mario Kart so far September 14, 2008

As many have said, great game but the random nature of the 150cc races is really demoralising. Then again it does add to the lifespan because it is a lot harder to get gold on all the cups than in previous games. Hopefully with the next game they'll get rid of the blue shells and all the bloody lightning strikes that happen every single race. Great game though.

Well finally it's here! Mario Kart Wii! Is fun for everybody and there is a Wi-Fi connection so you can play with friends or against the world! Even though I'm Dianes' son she still thinks its' great aswell! Now buy the game, and happy racing!
Great fun September 11, 2008
As a general summary of many of these extensive reviews, Mario Kart is a fun game for anyone of any age! Fairly easy to get through each track and win trophies, was just as do-able by 9 year old cousin, though not to same level of expertise! The online gameplay continues the fun when you've mastered all of the tracks yourself too.
Great game to play alone or with friends and family, some tracks from the old consoles too which are fun to see!
Definitely worthwhile to buy! My best game along with Wii sports!
