Because it looks like they're playing the game.
And adding the shadow of the karts shows how immersive it is. and i was actually hoping for something a little more intracite or detailed.
[sarcasm]They should be playing with GC controller because the real pros use only GC controllers. The motion sensing is just for the casuals, the hardcores will use the GC pad.[/sarcasm]
[QUOTE="ZumaJones07"]I'm guessing that's the boxart for the Wii Wheel AND the game. The REAL boxart is on the game box inside the box :lol: make sense...:? I hate your sig >__>
the box art does seem a bit too simple for a racing game, i dont actually believe this myself, but i think some people might even be thrown off by its simplicity, they might think its not a serious racing game, idk.

They are bringing the focus to how you will play the game with a steering wheel. Casuals/non-gamers will eat that up even though a traditional controller will probably perform much better.

Nintendo is going for simplicity nowadays. I can see this as being real.
Thanks for showing us this :), though I think the boxart is a little plain, it needs more color or something.Bass7
It has the same color and theme as the Wii console box. If you take issue with the boxart, then you will take issue with minimalist art in general. While plain, it is not flashy and gimmickry that we are often used to in video game art.

Umm... That's because it isn't a serious racing game?

it's kinda meaning that it will feel like your in the kart, but your actually just holding the wii remote cheesy I know

YOU CAN FIRE SHELLS OUT OF A KART, but a gun would proabably perform much better...

Boxart is fine. Just dont know about the steering wheel / how responsive and useful will the motion control be. Plus since theres bikes in the game it seems weird, bikes dont have steering wheels.

They are showing off the downlaodable ghost data feature.;)

LOL
Looks cool. Hopefully the case will look betterAndYOU
Thats a good point...since it comes in a box to have the wheel included, I wonder if the game case will the same box art... oh and if the game comes in a cardboard sleeve like link's crossbow training or wii sports Im gonna have to punch someone in the head.
Without a doubt you'll be able to buy a second wheel seperatly, nintendo may be a money grubbing corperation just like the rest of them but they wouldn't go so far as to make you buy 4 games to be able to play with 4 wheels!
I doubt this is the final boxart or even the final title of the game. They'll add a subtitle.bluezy
nope that'll be the final name, mario kart isn't really into this idea of subtitling or at least the main mario kart games aren;t : super mario kart, mario kart 64, mario kart DS and now mario kart wii double dash had a reason to subtitle as it was attempting to change it's dynamics and super circuit was a remake
so yeah mario kart's tend to just go with the title of the console, plus this probably is the boxart, look at the ds boxart (UK dunno bout anywhere else) it's near identicle, except doesn't feature a wiiremote and he is in a kart

Because its meant to show that you will feel like your actually riding a kart.
Sweet to the beat. I justy hope the actual game doesnt come in a card board sleeve like links cross bow training and they actually give us a proper box.

Marketing tactic it seems: Immersiveness. In other words the steering wheel is adding even more options to the Wii, and not just for Mario Kart.

I like the box art. It's simple, looks like the Wii box, and gets the point across quickly. If you buy this you'll be racing with iconic Nintendo characters, and it will be like driving with an actual wheel.
The floating in the air could show how immersive the game is? like you dont need a real kart to enjoy this? and if they had a cart, how can you see them holding the controller/wheel?

Nintendo Power and other magazines played this game and they said the controls with the Steering Wheel are really Responsive.
