Addictive and fun racing action — you cant play just one round.! The roster of characters is great. Just wait until you see some of the characters that you can unlock! Seriously
Its Mario Kart
People. Do we really need to convince you of how aweso...
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
The editors didn't like
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...
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
If you have a Wii and like Mario Kart, Im not even sure why youre still reading. Go out and get this game. It can be a ton of fun alone or can even make a great party game. Even in 4 player mode the action doesnt slow down at all. You and a friend ...
Abstract: Mario Kart Wii is a hard game to score for me because my son and I have been enjoying it a lot, so I want to give it a 9 or 9.5 out of 10, but because of the lacking multiplayer options and not as polished graphics as other current systems on the mark...
Mario Kart is back and it’s exactly what you expect, Jump tricks add an interesting dynamic, Graphics are crisp and colorful, Online multiplayer is way too much fun, Variety of characters and karts/bikes keep it interesting
No more freeforall balloon battles, Local multiplayer noticeably reduces frame rate, Wii Wheel is not as intuitive as you’d hope, Brings very little that is new to the franchise
Mario Kart Wii may have a couple of new additions that try to spice things up, but it’s pretty much the same Mario Kart that you have been playing all along. The tracks have been widened to accommodate a maximum of 12 racers at a time and the introd...
Abstract: One of my all-time favorite games is Mario Kart 64 for the Nintendo 64. It and Golden Eye 007 were played endlessly during my college years thanks to the 4-player action. The series hit a roadblock with the somewhat lackluster Game Boy Advance release,...
The most seamless, robust Wii online experience yet; Classic courses from past Mario Karts; comes packaged with Wii Wheel; Mii support.
Dumbed-down gameplay unfriendly towards series vets; no real-time chat in online mode; graphics barely a smidgen improved over Double Dash!!
Mario Kart Wii feels recycled and simplified from past installments, but its saved by a handful of creative and nostalgaic courses and its excellent 12-player online matches.
Abstract: Visually, Mario Kart is a pretty game. The colors, as one would expect, jump of the screen and they compliment an art style which is best defined as cartoonish. The scenery in the game is pretty enjoyable but you will find a lot of flat details along t...
Abstract: Fifteen years since it first crossed the finish line, Nintendo’s addictive, arcadey kart-racing series is still the one to beat. Without straying far from its reliable formula, the beloved franchise hits the Wii with an all-new entry that should appea...
Abstract: Find out whether the world really needs another Mario Kart game. The sixth game in Nintendos mascot racing series is now available, and Mario Kart Wii continues to nudge the series forward in various ways. It is definitely not a major advancement in ...
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...
