WII'RE AT THE RACES
Review of Mario Kart Wii (Wii) by nathaninnit

Advantages: Online experience will last you until a better game
Disadvantages: Wii specific improvements are the exact opposite

...churning out of a new Mario Kart title on every new Nintendo console that gets me all warm and fuzzy inside. Probably not quite the counting the hours anticipation that comes with those huge 'killer app' titles though. With the original MK title being released on the SNES, we saw Mario getting pawned off for one of his first sporting outfits in a go-kart. The title garnered aload of popularity and to this date is still regarded by many as the best ... Read review

Kart Shaped Love
Review of Mario Kart Wii (Wii) by ryanando

Advantages: New tricks, Bikes and a tonne load of things to do
Disadvantages: The team setting is a bit of a pain

...was to stay in, play Mario kart and sleep. More fun for me, though, I (as was kind of expected) ended up in the pub, making for much fun times and lots of kissing (don't worry, it's the guy I had the failed date with. I'm not just a tart). Then my ex came over to stay the day after. Ok, so maybe I AM a LITTLE bit of a tart monster. Oops. Obviously the sleeping part of the plan went completely out of the window for various reasons I shall leave ... Read review

Wheelie good game, go kart it home
Review of Mario Kart Wii (Wii) by Susanimber

Advantages: Upto 4 players and 2 players online
Disadvantages: Need upto 4 remotes

I originally played Mario Karts on the Nintendo 64 and my children play Mario Karts on the DS, so we all eagerly awaited Mario Karts being released on the Wii. It was released on 11th April 2008 but I ordered it on Game.co.uk as a pre-order and it came on Thursday afternoon a day earlier than it was released in the UK. It also comes with a Wii branded wheel in the box. When you first play the game you can create a licence up to 4 licences can be ... Read review

More Addictive Than Drugs
Review of Mario Kart Wii (Wii) by lilmsnaughty1979

Advantages: Lots Of Fun, Highly Addictive
Disadvantages: Blue Shells

...most addictive game. Wii + Mario Kart = hours of my life wasted, please stop Nintendo I need to sleep. Why I find this game so addictive is hard to pin down. I've played racing games before and not become so hooked. Perhaps it's the wackiness of the game or the competitiveness. I know what it is, it's just plain good fun, what more do you need. The premise is simple, race around tracks as a Nintendo character against other Nintendo characters ... Read review

Mario Kart: Wii Review
Review of Mario Kart Wii (Wii) by TheGingerKid

Advantages: Vast amounts of unlockables; Idea of having Mii Character in game is a bonus
Disadvantages: Glitching within Online Multiplayer; Silly that they changed GameCube Controller bindings

...Feast you eyes on my Mario Kart Wii Review! What can I say? It's immense. The hotly anticipated game is here and is living high above the hype it started getting way before it's release. There is just no place where I can start off telling how good this is, but here goes nothing. As the game is on the Wii, you would expect a great new way of playing the long time loved game that is Mario Kart; and you would be correct. There isn't just one way ... Read review

Mario Kart better then ever online
Review of Mario Kart Wii (Wii) by johnpaullucky7

Advantages: Detailed Graphics, No lag online, The Wii Wheel great add on, Awesome soundtrack
Disadvantages: weapons can be a pain sometimes, online you can get disconnected quite a bit,

...playing single player is boring. Mario Kart Wii features old and new racing tracks from SNES, N64, Gamecube, Game Boy Advance, DS as well as new tracks just for the Wii. Racers well there is even more including new racers such as Rosalina, Baby Peach, Baby Daisy, Funky Kong and there is more even your Mii as well as those classic racers like Donkey Kong, Wario, Yoshi, Toad and many more. The game even adds more great stuff to the game by adding ... Read review

'bye bye'
Review of Mario Kart Wii (Wii) by missydoc

Advantages: Free wheel, endless fun, addictive, graphics
Disadvantages: none I can think of

...on TV recently about Wii Mario Kart, we finally managed to buy our copy last week and my husband has been 'driving' me around the bend - literally in his kart. My nieces (aged 14 and 12) came over so we all surrounded the TV, fighting for the wheel and wanting to try it out first. Mario Kart comes with a wheel which the Wii remote clicks horizontally into place and you are ready to play. We also bought an extra wheel (as we only have two controls) ... Read review

Review of Mario Kart Wii (Wii) by kieransgurl

Advantages: Safe internet use, lots of courses, free wheel.
Disadvantages: Same courses as old games.

...game features all the famous Mario characters including Mario, Luigi, Yoshi, Peach & Toad to name but a few. There is also Baby Mario & Baby Peaches who are just the cutest. There are about twelve characters you can choose to be, each having three motorbikes and three cars to race in each. Multiplayer Options The multiplayer options for this game are fantastic. You can play with up to four people, play against your friends online or play ... Read review

The Classic is back
Review of Mario Kart Wii (Wii) by smivs953

Advantages: Online play, wheel is good fun, ITS MARIO KART!
Disadvantages: need internet to make the most out of the game

Mario Kart wii is one of the most highly anticipated releases to become available on the wii. Nintendo's best selling game is back and it is stronger than ever although it does have a few drawbacks but i will list them in each section. Packaging: The box that Mario Kart wii comes in is fairly large for a console game but that is because it includes the Wii wheel which i will talk about later. Apart from this the only other thing in the box is ... Read review

A Worthy Carrier Of The Mario Kart Legacy
Review of Mario Kart Wii (Wii) by Chris939

Advantages: Steering Wheel, 2 Player Online
Disadvantages: No Unique Player Items, No 2 Player Grand Prix

Finally, Mario Kart comes to Wii and with it launches Nintendo's most well known character into the next generation of Mario Kart. With the advancement to the Wii console, the most obvious change is the fact that instead of a controller, the Wii Remote is now used inside a Steering Wheel to fully utilise the Wii's motion control and although this can take time to get used to, it really enhances your driving experience once you're used to it. On ... Read review

Review of Mario Kart Wii (Wii) by mcleism01

Advantages: music, wii wheel, online
Disadvantages: grand prix, cant fight on your own in battle mode

Many hardcore Mario fans may have been worried by the addition of motorcycles and tricks to Mario Kart but they have done nothing but make this edition one of the best Mario Karts yet, It I still very similar to the Mario Karts we have known and loved over the years. Gran prix mode, which is meant to be the key part of Mario Kart, is the part of Mario kart that let me down the most, it's not that it's bad or anything, it's just that to get gold ... Read review

A good game but only rent it out!
Review of Mario Kart Wii (Wii) by 05cwestr

Advantages: Fun against family
Disadvantages: short game

Super mario kart wii is fun game where you are able to race against classic Mario characters or against other members of your family. The best part about mario kart is racing with the wii controller and using it like a real steering wheel really challenges and brings a new level to the game. Despite the original fun i was really disappointed by how easy the game was to complete and how short the game was. Although this was a real problem I enjoyed ... Read review

Advantages: Great WiFi Worldwide gameplay, Controller Wheel, new racecources and characters!
Disadvantages: None!

Hearing that a new Mario Kart Game had been released i immediately rushed into the shops and bought it! you must understand that i am a Mario Karts Fan BIG TIME !

The Game comes with a wheel which you can place your wii remote inside to add to the driving experience, and it makes it twice as fun! It has all the usual characters such as Mario, Luigi, Peach, Bowzer, ... Read review
