Brace yourself for a new set of tricks, tracks and ways to race. The included Wii Wheel transforms your Wii Remote into a steering wheel that feels great in your hands, while the Wii Remote and Nunchuk controller supply a classic control style for veterans of this racing series. Either way, you'll be able to perform impressive speed-boosting tricks, such as jumps, flips and wheelies.You can zip through brand-new tracks and arenas, and also tour classic courses from Super Mario Kart, Mario Kart 64, Mario Kart: Super Circuit, Mario Kart: Double Dash and Mario Kart DS. There are even options for trying all-new motorbikes that have their own special tricks and techniques. The action gets fast, furious and funny when you race in Mario Kart Wii.

i love playing this game while traveling and being at home too. air hockey and bumper cars are the absolute best games and reasons why i bought the game. the control touch pad controls most of the main movements of every game so it gets a little hard to figure and feel of the game. but it is good!

It's game seven, tie game and there are only eight seconds remaining on the clock. Your teammate inbounds the ball to you, and you start to dribble up the floor crossing midcourt. Quickly you cross over and head to the left as the center sets a hard pick ~ knocking your defender off his feet. Seven seconds to go. You pass to the wing and cut to the right. Seconds continue to tick away as the forward comes up to set a screen. Your defender recovers and rushes up to cover you just as you receive the ball at the top of the three-point arc. You pump fake ~ he doesn't budge. You decide to put the ball on the deck and dribble to the right ~ three seconds to go. You stop and cross over to your left, causing the defender to lose his balance. You rise into the air and release the ball. Two seconds ~ flashbulbs pop and the crowd holds its collective breath. One second ~ the ball approaches the hoop, will there be overtime or glory? NBA 2K11 builds on the momentum of NBA 2K10 by improving every aspect of the series. In addition to the authentic professional basketball experience, NBA 2K11 pays homage to 14-time NBA All-Star and six-time NBA World Champion, Michael Jordan. Put your hoop skills to the ultimate test as you attempt to relive 10 legendary games from Jordan's career and replicate his athletic feats on the hardwood in the Jordan Challenge. Successfully reenact all 10 scenarios to unlock the MJ: Creating a Legend a mode which allows you to take control of a newly drafted rookie Michael Jordan ~ and create your own historical career in the NBA. Have you ever wondered how the Jordan-led Chicago Bulls would fare against today's NBA teams? The legendary Bulls squads from the 1985-1986, 1989-90, 1990-91, 1991-92, 1994-95, 1995-96, 1996-97 and 1997-98 seasons are at your fingertips in Quick Game mode. Hit game milestones and accomplishments as you play through the game to earn and collect pairs of Air Jordan shoes that Michael wore throughout his legendary career. Take full control of the ball with the all-new IsoMotion Dribbling controls and Dynamic Shot control allowing you to unleash ankle-breaking moves to separate from your defender, drive to the hole, pull up and hit the open jumper, lay the ball in gently or slam it home. Experience NBA 2K11 in breathtaking 3D and get closer than ever thought possible to being on the court with Michael Jordan. With new and improved features, including My Career mode, in-game highlights, side-by-side commentary, dynamic crowd attendance and an exciting soundtrack, NBA 2K11 delivers all the realism, excitement and energy of the NBA.

bad game overall
March 28, 2011
i bought this game so i can play with the retro teams and enjoy the current updates on all the teams. what i hate about this game is that they don't have full rosters on the all of the retro teams. i mean look at the bad boys from 1990, they are on the game. there is NO john salley, vinnie johnson, mark aguirre or even chuck daly! its just the starting five that played that season. that suxx!!! also NOT on the game are charles barkley's philly, phoenix 93 or even his houston team. the freakin 2 time nba champion houston rockets arent even on there!!
this game is too much into jordan. jordans retro teams are mostly full on their rosters. so of course it'll be easy to destroy a five player detroit and new york team on there. i also don't like that its difficult to set up the game to play with players who are currently injured. i wanted to play with the pistons and use jonas jerebko but i couldn't cause for the longest time. he has been injured all year. i want the game to make it easier for me to use the full roster even if players are out for the season. i want that choice!!
the graphics are good and commentery is good but they goofed up with the roster ploblems.

nba 2k12 it kept skipping and stopping
June 29, 2013
this game is good except for a couple of big things. during regular game play the game would skip and lag, stop and go for periods of time. 2nd, the game would pause when i would load a saved game or settings forcing me to turn the power off and on again just to continue. then at the end of a game during the playoffs the game would stop and pause forcing me to power off the console and turn it back on again but i could not finish what i started. i exchanged the game at first. both disc are fine. my system is fine too. i think its just the game itself it wont let me play the game without some sort of problem. my other games do not give me any problems whatsoever!!!

Los Santos: a sprawling sun-soaked metropolis full of self-help gurus, starlets and fading celebrities, once the envy of the Western world, now struggling to stay afloat in an era of economic uncertainty and cheap reality TV. Amidst the turmoil, three very different criminals plot their own chances of survival and success: Franklin, a former street gangster, now looking for real opportunities and serious money; Michael, a professional ex-con whose retirement is a lot less rosy than he hoped it would be; and Trevor, a violent maniac driven by the chance of a cheap high and the next big score. Running out of options, the crew risks everything in a series of daring and dangerous heists that could set them up for life.Grand Theft Auto V is the largest and most ambitious game Rockstar Games has yet created and takes full advantage of every ounce of processing power available in the current generation of consoles. In order to provide the best possible experience for such a massive and detailed world, the game will have installation requirements on the PlayStation 3 system. Grand Theft Auto V ships on one disc and will install content as soon as you insert the game. The install is roughly 8GB, and players will be able to play as soon as the install is complete.

Meh. Not great
By EVOX
Had potential for a great game. Multiplayer is boring and feels like any other multiplayer. Some sort of story would have elevated this title.

Following the record-breaking launch of NBA 2K16, the NBA 2K franchise continues to stake its claim as the most authentic sports video game with NBA 2K17. As the franchise that "all sports video games should aspire to be" (GamesRadar), NBA 2K17 will take the game to new heights and continue to blur the lines between video game and reality.

Another 2k game in the basketball series
By Phrobias from Michigan
I am leaving this review based upon 2k's past creations in this genre and to help give someone an idea what to expect. Also, to leave more than the "great game" and "incredible" five star ratings standard on this site. As a basketball enthusiast I have played a lot of 2k games as well as the nba live series. Nba2k14 and 15 were very similar and fun. NBA2k16 is a broken game and has ruined the franchise. The shooting mechanic is completely, utterly, and hopelessly broken in NBA2k16. You can have 99 statistic ratings, be completely wide open, and have perfect shot release only to miss most of your shots. RENT this game to see if they have fixed the shooting mechanic before wasting your money on a broken game like the 16 version.

I totally agree with you. I'm glad I got 2k16 free plus it was free with ps plus on ps4. I hate the controls overall but the shooting mechanics are very frustrating to say the least.
