The best in the Mario kart series. Graphics tremendously improved. Lots of tracks included. Bikes are added to add twist. Online play is great besides the slow startup connection. Overall, the game is SO FUN.
What's great about it: Fun game, Online play, bikes added
What's not so great: Slow Nintendo Online Play Connection
They may look cute, but there's nothing nice about the characters in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. This fighting frenzy will have you inflicting painful KO's on familiar opponents you thought were your friends. Take your frustrations out on Link, Mario and other characters from throughout the gaming world. Shoot spaceships out of the sky in the Lylat System from the Star Fox games and deal out killer blows in Rumble Falls based on the look and feel of Donkey Kong: Jungle Beat.Hit opponent after opponent to build up your damage meter, then knock your enemies clear off the screen. Rely on weapons that are silly but very effective, such as banana peels, pitfalls, gooey bombs and many more. Hurl old-school crates and barrels or select from Assist Trophies and Poke Balls to strike fear in the hearts of your foes. Combine Standard, Strong and Smash attacks to bash your way to victory. There are so many ways to smash, you'll get lost in the melees for hours on end.

This game rocks. I has all your favorite Nintendo characters plus well-loved third-party characters Sonic and Snake. The game has different game modes to choose from: solo play, four-player battle, online play, etc. Graphics is the best I have seen on the Wii so far. Replay value is great so your money is all worth the purchase. This is a game that you will play for hours today and for the years to come not until the next sequel to this series comes out.
What's great about it: Lots of game modes from solo play to multiplayer
What's not so great: Slow Nintendi WiFi Connection
