Best wii game? After just 1 hour of playing i felt i HAD to review this...
This game is flawless. At first i was quite worried because I didn't think anything could beat double dash. It is back to just one character per cart, however that doesn't matter cus thats all you need.
The control system was also something I wasn't sure about, however its perfect. I haven't noticed a problem with it. The wii motion is really well integrated however with 4 different controllers to plug in, including the Gamecube controls option, you can do anything with this game.
Game-play is very good. The classic races are all lovely to see again, and have just enough tweeks to make them fun again without ruining what you used to love.
The new tracks are awesome, and very varied. Some tracks have wipeout elements or g-type elements, which is also amazing.
The battle modes are good, there is the traditional balloon mode and also a new coin collecting mode, both fun and both very addictive.
The AI is very clever, not too challenging but it does seem to get more so the better you do, so it works with you in the game which means its a good game to play one player also.
The graphics are smooth and very good, not pushing any Wii limits but there is very good movement and backgrounds and the characters also look well polished.
The online access is easy to find and use, and it doesn't take long to get into games with anyone worldwide. The rankings and score boards are a nice feature also. Up to 12 players online, 4 on the wii, so everything you choose brings something to the game. You can also go online with 2 people at the same time using the Wii, which provides a chance for some serious racing.
All in all both one player and multilayer this game is a must have, I don't think you will find much else that competes. Warrioware is possibly the other best party game at the moment.
