The editors liked

  • 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

  • Selection of courses new and old. Motorbikes available. Wii wheel control
  • Overzealous power-up AI. Too many boost opportunities. No free-for-all in battle mode
  • This version of Mario Kart reminds us why we loved the original so much. A Wii essential ...

  • Mario Kart : The perfect family/party game, GTA IV: An original free-roaming driving/shooting game, it cant be beaten
  • Mario Kart: Game play isnt revolutionary, GTA IV: Tad gruesome
  • For graphics, music and flexibility GTA is the winner, but we love the cheekiness and kiddy fun of Mario

  • Abstract:  It’s been 3 years since Mario Kart came out on the DS and 5 years since Mario Kart: Double Dash was released.It’s been worth the wait for the next instalment. I was pondering whether to get the game or not, because I thought “what more can they do?” – ...

  • New karts, new bikes, new tracks, Superb multiplayer, Comes with a Wii Wheel, Loads of multiplayer longevity
  • Single player replayability limited, Wii Wheel/ Wii Remote control a bit ‘dodgy’, 16 tracks just repetitions from previous versions, Opponents become real basts in the later races
  • So, if you haven’t got the gist of this review by now, here it is in a nutshell: As a single player game, Mario Kart still has that mass appeal but is of limited replay value. Once you’ve aced all the tracks and beaten all the ghosts in time t...

  • Gorgeous cartoony looks, fantastic online multiplayer, excellent gameplay
  • Frame-rate suffers in split screen, wheel a touch awkward
  • The Wii finally gets a classic racer that shortness aside, packs some major thrills

  • Abstract:  It’s been sixteen years since Nintendo started this kart racing malarkey. Back when it first kicked off no one ever considered it was going to be a success, and before release most commented that the best it could hope for was to be an enjoyable side d...

  • The welcome return of some of the classic tracks from previous games and the inclusion of new stunt moves makes the game fresh yet familiar.
  • The game is hard to win, with some of the new power ups being race breakers when you are in the lead.

  • Abstract:  MARIO Kart Wii (MK Wii) needs a name change. And not just because its current title is a dull juxtaposition of the game franchise (Mario Kart) and the platform this instalment is for (Wii).This latest mascot racing game from Nintendo is still about zip...
