Join the next Mario Kart experience with Mario Kart Wii. A fun game with new characters, new and old tracks, and bikes!
Overview:
Although it is somewhat similar to the previous Mario Kart games, the new features make this game even more enjoyable.
What makes this game more enjoyable is the incredible new features:
-The Wii Wheel. By experience it works really well and makes the game more fun and realistic.
-Get to drive Motorbikes! For the gamers who are getting tired of using karts in a kart game, try using the motorbike.
-Online play. You can challenge up to 11 other racers all over the world using Wi-Fi Connection.
-Mario Kart Channel. You can add this optional channel to your Wii Menu to view worldwide stats.
-Play as your Mii. Yes, finally you get to use your own Mii character to good use once again by racing against the characters.
With this new game comes new maps and new cups to race for. Race for 8 different cups (32 tracks) to become a champion. Four of these cups are from the previous N64 version, but the tracks are not the same. Not only do you get to try the new tracks, you also get to go back in time and play some of the original tracks from the Super Nintendo and N64 versions.
There is also new items you get to use against your opponents on the race track. Some of these new items include a squid that squirts ink on your screen to blind you, turning into a rocket and get auto-piloted through the track at a higher speed for a limited time, and a mushroom to make you bigger.
Besides all these new improvments of the game, the gameplay is similar to the previous Mario Kart games: Race and use items to destroy your opponents. You still get the previous features of battling, versus, timing, and playing up to 3 other players locally.
