 Toadette's my favorite in this game! November 8, 2009

And I like the fish car. :P Anyway, steering using the Wii-mote (only) is cool, but if I want a chance at winning, I must use a Gamecube controller because it has the Double Dash layout which I loved and can work with. Note that this was my first time playing it Saturday and I enjoyed it so, but I really couldn't get the hang of it with a Wii-mote alone. Don't even get me started on trying to turn and drift at the same time. Can't get used to it!
And I'd imagine it'd be tough for young users to play this game with a Wii-mote, but maybe I'm wrong. Maybe if they are good at this game, they can dominate just like the best of them.
I'm usually really good at all of the Mario Karts but I'm just not that great with the Wii-mote.
But enough of the blab.
This game starts out with about 12 characters, and has 24 or so in total (including King Boo who is heavy, but cool otherwise). The racing levels range from new, and mostly exciting ones, to older ones giving you a feeling of nostalgia, to totally horrible tracks like Rainbow Road. Yes, in general, that's usually a hard level, but this one is RIDICULOUS in its difficulty. There are so many unnecessary loops and turns it's quite disheartening for nearly anyone. Congrats to anyone who can dominate on this track.
This game is the first to add bikes (which I don't really use) and tricks which are fun to pull off. You do tricks and you get boosts, but they are only done off ramps, or like tree roots.
On a side and seemingly unrelated note, I loved Smash Bros. Melee on the GameCube. One of my favorite games on the system. Then the Wii comes along with Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Mario Kart Wii.
Which is the better of the two? For me, it was Mario Kart Wii. Although both are fun.
Is this game better than the SNES one? Yes, to me.
Is it better than the Nintendo 64 version? Well, it looks better and doesn't have any glitches in it, so on that note, yes. But I didn't play battle in this one so I can't speak on that. We'll just say that it's at least on par with Mario Kart 64.
Is it better than Double Dash on GameCube? Yes, yes, yes!
4 stars.
end note: I wouldn't get this game for single player though. Hopefully you plan to play with at least one friend. Or online.
 Mario Kart Wii Super Fun!! November 7, 2009

This game has many different features, including racing other people around the world using your internet connection (my favorite)! It's so exciting to think be racing people that you have never met. By playing Mario Kart and winning races, you unlock new characters and levels, keeping the game exciting.
Must have game November 4, 2009

Kids love it...Fun for the adults too. A must have for your gaming collection. You wont be disappointed. Well worth the price for the entertainment it provides. For a bonus, if you have a wireless network setup in your home, you can race people from all over the world on the Wii-Fi connection.
Great Game November 4, 2009

Its a lot of fun and I like that you can play online against friends or just people on the internet!
Love this game! November 4, 2009

I was a big fan of Mario Kart for the Super NES, so I knew I would love this game as well. I played it at family's house and it was a huge hit with everyone. I purchased this game and an extra Wii Wheel to be able to play with my husband. This game is a lot of fun and is great for playing alone or with a big group. The graphics are a lot better than what I thought they would be and remind me a lot of the other Mario Kart games I have played except that with this game, it's more 3D looking. I would definitely recommend this game!
