Huge number of courses, including some of the most imaginative yet, Deeply integrated online play, Easy to jump into for players of any skill level, Fun and strategic trick system, Motorcycles provide a great alternative to go-karts
Nostalgia doesnt save most of the classic courses from being boring, Items are more unbalanced than ever, especially on new tracks, Battle modes are now exclusively team-based and timed

Abstract: NintendoJust two days ago I posted an entry on my blog, Winchesters World, about Mario Kart Wii. Said slop made note of the fact that, apparently, Nintendo tested over 30 different wheel designs for the just-released Mario Kart Wii. After, I then proc...
Abstract: Game: Mario Kart WiiGenre: Kart RacerPlatform: Nintendo Wii I’ve always considered myself a big fan of the Mario Kart series, but when I really think about it, what I’m really a fan of is the first game in the franchise, the 16-bit SNES gem. Mario Kart...
Refined kart gameplay blends old and new mechanics successfully, Great roster of tracks, Tons of characters, Smooth online multiplayer matches, Wii Wheel really does feel great

Some of the items are way too powerful. How the blue shell made it through beta testing is beyond us. The game rewards stragglers too much. Trying to maintain a lead is way harder than it should be. The graphics wont blow you away and they get worse w...
Its fun, its addictive, its Mario Kart — what else do we need to say?
I have to admit I was pretty upset when I sat down to write this review. I had just come off a 5-hour Mario Kart session with the last hour and a half being wasted on doing the same series (150cc Flower) over and over again, trying all the characters t...
