The Wii Wheel that comes with the game makes the experience completely different in the best way possible. The ability to really control what your driving makes the game so much better. It is amazing that you can play online now and chose to play with a friend online makes it even more cool. I just got Mario Kart Wii 2 days ago but it's already my favorite Wii game yet. I suggest that anyone who likes driving games or Mario games gets this game as soon as possible. If you have a lot of friends or family members who like these kind of games I also suggest that you get a couple more Wii Wheels on your hand.

This game is a lot of fun. It has a great feel with the wheel but you just have to get used to it. Some aspects like drifting or racing on various tracks can be hard to get used to also, but once you got it, its so cool. The characters are pretty the same as previous games, but the game could be better without some characters. Battle mode and team races are fun. Players can choose which team to be on but you can't choose which characters on your team; the game randomly gives you a team. You can play with the Wiimote and wheel, the Wiimote and Nunchuck, the classic controller, or the Gamecube controller. One other cool thing is that you can perform tricks in the air ,and when you are on a bike, you can pop a wheelie. This game is fun and even more fun when you play with other people. Also there is a bunch of stuff to unlock, so get this game.
What's great about it: 4 types of controls, Playable tracks from old Mario Kart games, Bikes, New tracks, Wifi usage, co-op wifi, battle mode..
What's not so great: Many races and battles are so challenging, can't choose your teammates on vs. or battles, hard to get used to tracks...

I have been a Mario Kart fan ever since the Super NES days.
What I love about Mario Kart Wii is how it's essentially reinvented itself...again.
It's got brand new weapons and tracks and characters, but all the old throwbacks as well. I was also quite impressed with how responsive the Wii wheel is.
And, of course, on-line play rocks!!
Drawback: Get used to last-second flukes...they happen a ton in this game and it's really annoying sometimes. Don't be surprised if you're in the lead for the entire race up until the final seconds...that's when you get bombarded by about three things you can't dodge and wind up in 10th place.
What's great about it: Hands down the best Mario Kart yet!!
What's not so great: Gameplay is extremely fluke-based at times

Mario Kart Wii is one of the best games ever. You can never get bored. There is so much to do, so much to unlock. Wifi is incredible, first time I used it, it took my less than a minute to connect and start playing. Lots of fun to play with your family on multiplayer. Overall just a great game. Well worth 50 bucks. I would pay 100!

This game is AWESOME and so much fun. If you liked the Nintendo 64 version, this tops this. Plus there are new weapons and new tracks and you can ride a motorcycle. Nothing is bad about this game. Its way to much fun and the wheel is great. The only negative is trying to find extra wheels.
