Mario Kart Wii - 9/10

It's great to be back on MyWii I'll be back using it more in July because I've been on vaction with no computers near by. At least I could still use and pklay Wiui during my intenet break and I've been hooked on Mario Kart Wii.

Mario Kart has alway been a great series eve since it hit the SNES over 15 years ago. Now its back with improved, graphics, motoin sensebelity, mortcyles, and more characters.

Like Brawl there are multiple control options, unlike brawl you can't do any button mapping. The Gamcube controller is a great way to statrt off it is the easiest and simpiliest way. The Wii Wheel is the most fun way to use it plus thats the main attraction for this new game. The WiiMote and Nunchuck combo is the hardest an d is good for players who want a mor i ntense challange.The classic controller is well crappy, so I won't go there.

There are a wide varietey of courses but the best one's are the newer ones. It kind of feels Nintendo was too cheap to make 32 new stages all together so they only made 16 new ones and just adapted old tracks into the new game. Plus ddoes any one want to have three versoins of Mario Circut, three versoins of Bowser castles and 2 old dk stages even when theres already two new ones. Still, all the courses are fun to play on and they were all adapted niceley adaopted to the Wii both old and new ones.

There is a wide varietey of Characters throught the Mario universe. There is a whole bunch of fan favorites too chose from but is anyone going to remeber Dry Bowser, Baby Peach, Funky Kong and (shudders) Baby Daisy. You may also want to play as your mii but do you want to play as a guy who sounds like Sonic and Micky Mouse put together... I think not. Although you can't complain when most of the characters are good.

Nintendo Wi-Fi is a blast here. You can meet up with friends or people you don't know and battle or race. You cohoose a character vote on which course you want to play on. One will randomly be selected and then you will race. More then one person can play as the same guy so you may see three marios and two bowsers during the same race. The online feature is so good that it feels like your playing with people as if therte axctually playing next you.

Battle mode is medoicre some stadium-ish stages are ther to collect and steal coins and pop balloons off the other teams balloons karts to win. There aa 5 new stages and 5 okld but I'd prefer if the knocked that part off to put in more grand prix tracks.

The Graphics are clean crisp and colorful and the framerate is as smooth as a buttered pig. You got amazing scenery in places is like Coconut mall and Rainbow road.

Now lets cut down to the chase.

Gameplay: 9/10
Control: 10/10
Graphics: 9/10
Nintendo W-fi Connection: 10/10
Battle Mode: 4/10
Multiplayer: 9/10
Characters: 7.5/10
Corses: 8/10
Overall: 9/10

Enjoy the game.
