I personally like this game. I agree with when you get hit you come to a complete stop don't really like that. Or the fact it doesnt have all the old tracks then new ones are pretty sweet I might add. All in all I like the game alot!!!!!!!
Rating: - Lame...
I pre-ordered this game because I consider(ed) myself a hardcore Mario Kart fan, and instantly broke it out of the box and started playing. There are several things that make this game fun, but almost every single time I play, I can't help getting upset and putting down the controller, swearing to never play again - and then picking up Grand Theft Auto IV. It seems like every race I'm leading from laps 1 - 3, and then on the third lap I get hit by three red shells AND a blue shell, and then I end up in 11th place. I must just have the worst luck, but I'm getting sick of this game - and fast. They've almost taken the skill out of the game, you only rely on annoying new items.
Pros:
-Online Multiplayer
-New characters
Cons:
-New items that affect multiple players
-New carts / motorcycles that are essentially pointless
-VS battles with up to 6 computer players that cannot be changed
-Problems with Nintendo multiplayer servers
-Boring new race tracks and ruined classic tracks
Rating: - Best Wii game so far!!
Mario Kart Wii is a great sequel to the series. Everything about this game is a great step for the Mario Kart franchise.
The characters are about the same as the other games with the addition of Baby Mario and Baby Peach as well as Waluigi.
The tracks are great. They take old tracks from the previous games and revamp them as well as add some new tracks.
The graphics in this game are some of the best on the Wii. The Wii is not known for graphics but this game looks stunning, although i would recommend the component cables to get the best look out of this game.
The Nintendo WiFi connection allows for online racing. You can race your friends, or race regionally or worldwide. The addition of online play really adds to this game. You can import your Mii and the game keeps track of your stats, which i love.
And finally the Wii wheel was a big surprise to me in the fact that it is WAY better than i imagined. The Wii wheel is very fun to use and while it takes some getting used to, it works very well. But if you don't like it you can use many other control schemes: the Wii remote by itself, the Wii remote with nunchuck, the classic controller, and the a gamecube controller so you are destined to find one you like.
All in all this game is a great addition to the Wii, and frankly it is a needed one. With all of the medicore games out there for the Wii, this one stands out above them.
Rating: - FUN FUN FUN!!!!
This has to be the best Mario kart!! Non stop fun all the way , the included steering wheel makes the game more challenging but does not discourage using it. Online play is fun probably more if you have Wii friends.
Rating: - Awesome Game!!!!!!!!!
I have been waiting patiently since i heard this was coming out and I have not been disappointed yet. It took me a few races to get used to the wii wheel but I love it now and it really adds to the game. Very easy game and a lot of fun for the whole family. The motorcycle addition was a great touch and the new courses are a lot of fun. A must have game for Wii owners.
