This is a great game for everyone. The controls are simple but still leaves a little to be mastered. My kids are 8 and 6 the eight year old can hold his own but the 6 year old still has problems and get frustrated. The mini games are ok but simple.
The Online Gameplay is pretty good and the coolest thing is that it tells you what part of the world the people you are playing with are from. The online ranking also shows how you stack up against regional to world opponents.
I am 30 years old and have a great time playing with my kids.
If you have a Wii this is a must.
What's great about it: Fun Fun Fun Controls and Party atmosphere. Online Gameplay
What's not so great: No amount of skill can save you from a Blue or Red Shell
