After the disappointing Gamecube version (Mario Cart Double Dash), this game brings new life to the series. The wii wheel control is a must, because it makes the game that much more fun (and incredibly easy to use). The graphics are vivid and colorful but not overpowering, and the new levels are inventive and easy to get the hang of. If you ever get bored of playing against the computer (you won't), you can also play people from around the world on wi-fi, which takes almost no time to connect to. Overall, just a great game.
What's great about it: Great Graphics, Easy Controls, Good Replay Value
