I first experienced Mario Kart when Super Nintendo came out. It was the greatest game ever. Lucky for me, I was out walking one day in Philadelphia and they had a Wii Mario Kart Station for promotion set up. I thought why not give it a try since I had loved my days playing on SuperNintendo. Wow! It was truely a great experience. Still has the same sense of the old Mario Kart but with oh so much more. As soon as I got my hands on a Wii, my next step was to find the Mario Kart game. Well worth the searching!! So much fun, my fiance and I play for hours (yes we are adults). The wheel makes it really easy to play the game. I don't think I would enjoy my Wii as much without this game. In fact, I have 4 other games, all of which have not been opened yet because I have been doing is playing Mario Kart.
What's great about it: Comes with wheel, Fun for all ages
What's not so great: Have to keep the wheel controller at a certain angle for wii to recognize.
