Mario Kart Wii (Wii)

AWESOME USING WI-FI!

Mario Kart has been about for a while now and its newest release is Mario Kart Wii. This game comes with a specially designed Wii-wheel for a more life-like experience. There are many new things in Mario Kart Wii including motorbikes which come with wheelies for some extra speed, tricks which can be performed when jumping off a ramp and gives a small boost when you land again. There is also one new thing that was made to make the game fairer, instead of going left-right-left-right to get a mini-turbo you automatically get it after a duration of drifting (only on manual), bikes only get blue but karts get blue and red (this was made because of snaking and the Wii-wheel, it’s hard to go left and right with the Wii-wheel). Now onto the review... Gameplay: The gameplay is surely the best part of Mario Kart Wii because of the hard and annoying single player and the fun and addictive multiplayer. The single player is basically Grand Prix, Time Trail and unlocking characters and vehicles. The Grand Prix is made of 50cc (easy), 100cc (still easy), 150cc (hard) and 150cc Mirror (hard and made even more complicated because the track is the opposite). By finishing all of these you would have unlocked a lot of things already. And there are a lot of stuff to unlock. I give Gameplay a... 9.5/10 AWESOME Graphics: The graphics in this game didn’t get as much attention as it should have however it is still very good, there are some magnificent looking courses. The Retro courses look old and boring where as most of the new courses are beautiful (Maple Treeway and Grumble Volcano). When playing single player the graphics are very well done but when you play split-screen the graphics get much worse, especially with three or four people. The Graphics are OK and some courses look fine so I give it a... 8.5/10 Great Sound: The sound in this game sometimes is nice and peaceful but other times it’s just plain annoying. Each course has its own background music and some are pretty dramatic, there are also some nice sound effects (when you fly through the leaves in Maple Treeway there is the sound of whooshing leaves). But there are some bad things, each character has their own noises when they do a particular thing (get hit, bumped, pass someone, fall into a hole and so on...) this gets so annoying especially when you do wheelies and tricks all the time. The sound quality is great but sometimes it gets annoying so I give it... 8/10 Very Good Verdict: Mario Kart Wii is a great game, one of the best on the Wii even with its many faults. I give this game a... 9/10 SUPER! Recommendation: I recommend buying this right away if you haven’t gotten it yet, and if you don’t have a Wii, get one!

easy to play, fun tracks, a lot more fun than Mario Kart DS. One of my FAV wii games.

LOVE IT !!!!! IT IS SO AWSOME I DO NOT WANT TO PuT THE WII REMOTE DOWN!!!!!

way to hard its fun if you like nintendo.

I rate this game iffy for ages 6 and up because there can be shrinking because of thunder and throwing shells. Another thing that can be iffy is mii voices becasue they sound so weird. For example, one of the light male voices sounds deep and creepy, one stuffy voice for a heavy male, a dumb gogo phrase for a medium male, a hunky voice for another heavy male, another medium male sounding like he has a fever, and one of the medium female sounding like she has a stuffy head. One of my friends said that the heavy male mii in the light blue was his least favorite so that's why I rate this iffy for kids 6 and older including teens. These voices can scare babies so that's why I rate this off for ages 5 and under. It's easy to play this game.

i got the game for my wii and ds i never played the ds one and ended up selling it but i loved the wii one i loved the motion in the game i wish a mario kart wii 2 would come out buy it now

This is a great game. It has tons of characters you can play as and lots of great tracks. My favorite part is that you can race others around the world with Nintendo WFC (which is 100% safe). Totally worth the money. ;)
