I played this game a lot on Super Nintendo and while this version has better graphics, more cars and better tracks I'm extremely disappointed and shocked that there is no way to unlock anything in multiplayer mode. I'm not the type of person that can sit down and play hours of video games by myself. I only play with friends.
I'm shocked that Nintendo let this get past them.
What's great about it: Great to play with friends.
What's not so great: No unlockables in multiplayer mode.

Overall the game is fun and easy to learn and play. The steering wheel controller makes it easier to control your character over the normal Wii remote controller. I would recommend this product if you play this game a lot.
What's great about it: wheel makes playing MarioKart much smoother than a normal controller

We tried this out on New Year's Eve with another couple (all of us 50-somethings). After a few rounds, we were pros; laughed and raced till midnight.
Game is pretty straight forward - pick a character, pick a vehicle, race around increasingly difficult tracks dodging obstacles. Can be played as individuals or on teams with other Mario characters.
The courses were fun and exciting, with chances for power-ups to go faster or slip up other racers. On some tracks you can fall off into the abyss, but are gently replaced on the track so you can keep going. This is the best Wii game we have tried.
Wheel is totally unnecesary; just tilt the Wii controller up and down for steering.
What's great about it: Easy to use with challenging courses.
What's not so great: Wheel is just a waste of plastic.
