Mario Kart

Great single and multiplayer gaming

Strengths: online gaming works

Weakness: no voice chat, no ghost item

This is a fantastic game, I wouldn't pay above retail for it (as of this writing, demand is huge vs supply), but it is a solid addition to the wii library. Online racing works beautifully without lag. And while friend codes are annoying and only having preset text messages to send make it feel quiet, it is great to race online. When playing the computer, it can seem that a race can be won or lost...

Best Mario Kart yet?

Strengths: Vehicle variety, excellent online play

Weakness: rubberband AI

Mario Kart Wii might be the best game in the series yet, even if only due to the fantastic online implementation. Allowing you to race friends and strangers at any time, with up to 12 people per race, fun is always at your fingertips. While some of the powerups and hazards are more annoying than necessary (blue shells in particular), making many race results dependent on luck more than skill,...

Mario Kart (Wii)

Strengths: FUN for ALL AGES! Up to 4 home players. Able to play others on-line. Many tracks.

Weakness: NONE!

Its a game best for gatherings w/ friends/family because you can play upto 4 people at once (assuming you have 4 Wiimotes). The online capability is a nice plus if you are playing by yourself and want some human challengers. You can also play your 4 home players w/ other players online. Bottom line, FUN, FUN, FUN! If you get this, I'm sure you'll come to see what I mean.

A "Must Have" for Nintendo Fans

Strengths: Online play with both friends and random people. It has many options for driving styles, which include the wii-mote and nunchuck, the Gamecube controller, or you can use a driving wheel.

Weakness: Online play may be somewhat "laggy" but other than that, nothing.

If you are a Nintendo fan who has loved the Mario Kart's in the past, you need to pick this up whether it be for you, your kids, or a friend, this is a must buy!!!

Great Game like usual

Strengths: Ability to use Remote like a steering wheel. Still being able to use the classic controller or even a gamecube controller for the game.

Weakness: None so far.

This game exceeds my expectations that I had before the release. I would recommend this game to any person that has liked previous versions of Mario Kart. Nindendo has done it again.

Mario Kart Wii

Strengths: The addition of bikes and online racing is great.

Weakness: I have not found any.

In Mario Kart Wii offline and online players get to choose a character, a vehicle and a few courses. Try to beat the opposition through skillful driving and using those classic power-ups. The addition of motorbikes is most welcomed. Mario Kart Wii is a solid game which offers excellent gameplay. Red shells will fly, turbo boosts will pop and you'll have a lot of fun ruling the roads of the...

Same Mario Kart Goodness

Strengths: Multiple controller options Online play Tons of game modes/courses

Weakness: Graphics may be a tad blurry/grainy Some weaker character choices (Baby Peach?)

If you have enjoyed Mario Kart in the past, you will love this one too. All of the great modes and options are here. Plus, you can now ride bikes, which handle differently. Online matches are also available, for up to 12 players! If you own a Wii, you must own this game!

Another great Mario Kart game with a few twists

Strengths: Online gameplay, variety of controller choices, and bikes.

Weakness: The Wii Wheel takes some time to get used to. Graphics could be better.

Mario Kart Wii follows the long tradition of previous Mario Kart titles by giving you the heroes and villains from the Mario games racing it out go kart style with many devious weapons at their disposal. The addition of the Wii Motion controls and the Wii Wheel for steering will take some time to get used to but it does and a new layer of that racing feeling as you turn the wheel to steer. Online...

Mario Kart (Wii)

Strengths: Able to play friends/family over the Internet! Great fun!

Weakness: I should handicap players with lesser ability.

We spend several hours a week playing this game. We play our family in Washington state and on the other side of St Louis. We lose, but still have fun doing so! This is a lot of fun to play. It's great for all ages, however, don't play your grand kids...you will lose every time!

Mario Kart Wii - Another Great Party game for a...

Strengths: 12 Player Online, including online battle mode, a first for the series. The Wii Wheel is a freebie. Great Multiplayer Fun! You can use your favorite Mii as a driver!

Weakness: Wii Wheel is a novelty. Great for new players but most may want to consider sticking to a more standard control scheme.

Mario Kart Wii continues the tradition of quality that Nintendo is known for in all their software and in the Mario Kart series as well. 32 courses: 16 new and 16 from previous kart games; all are amazing, but some are better than others. Quite simply some of the most fun you'll have with your Wii.
