Product Description

Mario Kart Wii comes bundled with a new and intuitive accessory - the Wii Wheel, which makes it one of the most accessible Mario Kart games to date and allows complete novices to compete with ease and comfort, ensuring no one is left in the dust. For those more familiar to Mario Kart and who are now afraid of getting smoked by their newcomer grandparents using the Wii Wheel, rest assured, Nintendo has you covered! Mario Kart Wii supports five different control options: Wii Wheel, Wii Remote turned on its side, Wii Remote and Nunchuk combination, Classic Controller and even Nintendo GameCube controller. So there’s bound to be a configuration that fits everyone’s experience, level and style.

Mario and all his much loved pals are planning to make a spectacular return in this definitive version of Mario Kart, providing the most action-packed, adrenaline-filled racing fun ever seen in the series. Players will have to master a host of 16 exciting new tracks in addition to 16 classic tracks from previous Mario Kart games.

For the first time ever players will have the option of racing with karts or a brand new mode of transport – Bikes. Using bikes as your chosen method will offer up some interesting and different gameplay possibilities such as carrying out a “wheelie”, which in turn will give you a small boost that could be crucial and make that all important difference at the finishing line.

Players will also be able to hit the road as their own personalized Mii caricatures in addition to many classic and even some never-before seen characters in Mario Kart games. True to the series, Mario Kart Wii will feature adrenaline pumping racing action, a plethora of power-ups and masses of objects for players to use to slow down their rivals. Also with 10 battle arenas, players are sure to be kept busy between trips around the circuit.

In addition to all this a new Wii Channel, the Mario Kart Channel, will also be launched with Mario Kart Wii. Players will be able to monitor their ranking against others with data compiled from races completed online as well as also access and share Ghost Data to download. Why not see if your friends are playing by checking their status or even better still set up a room in which you can chat to them before a race starts? Players even have the possibility to join in on their friends races in progress as a spectator and jump into the race when the next course launches. Through this channel, users will be exposed to a host of new online features allowing them to join a community of racing fans from all over the world as well as participate in special worldwide events organised by Nintendo.

Just Wow
5 stars Reviewed by Timothy on October 6th, 2008
Been playing this game for the last couple of months and I'm seriously impressed.

Being a owner of mario kart DS, I was really looking forward to Nintendo improving online play and I really think they succeeded. Even with NZ connection the game is extremely playable and fun online.

The game itself is pretty much the same as always however they really improved the slide boost system.

You own a wii, grab this game, its a lot of fun.

The Kart Is Back
5 stars Reviewed by Aaron from Auckland, NZ on June 13th, 2008
This is a fantastic game. After looking for it for a full two months, it lives up to and surpasses all expectations I had. The Wheel is a lot of fun to use and the gameplay hasnt changed too much from previous Kart entries. The battle mode despite being only team based is still a blast. Multiplayer is insanely fun as well and I imagine online would be great as well. The only gripe I have is that the item selection is a little unfair if your near the finish line and in first place, don't be surprised if you get taken out. Still a great game and a must have in anyone's Wii collection.

A Amazing Game And A Must Buy.
5 stars Reviewed by Shelley on May 16th, 2008
I have just gotten it and I've played through 50cc so far and think it's Great and that it was definately worth the wait.
It has 16 new tracks which I love and 16 old and playing with the Wii Wheel gives it a nice twist along with the fact there are both Karts and Motorcycles to choose from with each player getting around 4 of each.
Also the fact that it allows you to play with the Gamecube Controller, Classic, Wiimote + Nuchunk and the Wii Wheel means that you can use your preference or what ever you find easier.
It also has three new items which are fun to use and also very useful in gameplay.
Wi-Fi looks great and apparently has no lag so I'm looking forward to trying that out too.
Overall this is a great Wii game and a Must Buy for every Wii owner.

Fun
4 stars Reviewed by Mark on May 3rd, 2008
To the posters about how the Wii doesn't support voice. I think you are forgetting that the Wii is a family based console, I don't think you'd want people using foul language in a game that is essentially made for anyone from very young and up. I think that the online is fine how it is anyway. This game is a fun addition to the Wii and is also awesome to play with the Wii Wheel! :D

Another fantastic Mario game
5 stars Reviewed by Peter from Ferntree Gully, Australia on April 28th, 2008
As with Super Mario Galaxy, this is also alot of fun to play. Features tracks from previous versions, and some new ones. I like Rainbow Road in 50cc class. I've been playing it with the Wii Wheel, and it works very well. Supports classic & GC controllers, and controller / nunchuk. Highly recommended to everyone.

extreme
5 stars Reviewed by Ethan from wellington, NZ on April 20th, 2008
this game looks intense 8 cups to choose from 4 with new tracks and 4 with old/new depending on whether you ve played them or not a ton of karts/bikes to unlock 6 or 8 for each character cant wait to play online battle with 11 other people

Best racing title ever?
5 stars Reviewed by Ross from Auckland, NZ on March 16th, 2008
The Nintendo Wii does not currently support Voice Chat. So you cannot blame the game on that.

Featuring all the classic tracks from the DS and before, and lots of new ones, Im really excited about the best, most addictive racing franchise ever.

If you watch the video's you really want to play it, it looks great!, but the new introduction of Motorbikes as well as karts, and 12 players online racing, will make it one heck of a fun game.

And did I mention you can play with ANY Wii compatible controller! (Classic, GCN, Wiimote, Nunchuk/Remote etc.)

I can't wait!

For Die hard kart fans only
4 stars Reviewed by Rich from Pallet Town on February 29th, 2008
While I'm sure that the Kart racing at the core of this will be a lot of fun, it is the limited online feature set that upsets me. No voice chat? No text chat? COME ON NINTENDO - these are things that have been standard on other platforms for years!
Also the so called Wii Wheel looks cheap and tacky.
