This is a super fun game. I loved Mario Kart Double Dash for Gamecube, but this is much more fun. The steering wheel makes it a more real racing experience, but it can be sensitive. At times, I've found it hard to regain control of a vehicle. My whole family loves this. Even my youngest (4) can play. The only other downside I've seen so far, is that in order to unlock the hidden cars, races, characters, I've had to play solo. Try that with 3 kids!
What's great about it: My 4-yr old can play easily
What's not so great: Sometimes steering can be tricky
