There are even options for trying all-new motorbikes that have their own special tricks and techniques. The action gets fast, furious and funny when you race in Mario Kart Wii.

Great game. The Nintendo Wii allows the ability to have a cool interface, which creates for an enjoyable user experience. Anyone who played Mario Kart for the N64 will want to check this out. Unlock characters and new races, run some time trials or play coin/balloon challenges; bring some friends. Graphics are the best I've seen from the Wii thus far, so I was impressed. Over all a good purchase with great replay value and the perfect multiplayer game for those summer evening house parties.
What's great about it: Sensitive steering, creative race tracks, multiplayer
What's not so great: Nintendo products sell out instantly, they should share the love and up production
