''Ladies and gentlemen,start your engines,because Mario Kart for wii will be burning rubber around the world,online,in the first quarter of next year'' This was one of the best sentences I've ever heard in my life,but how many of you thought the wii wheel wouldn't work,how many of you looked at the bikes and said ''OMG,they ruined Mario Kart'',well I thought that it MIGHT happen like that,but here we are,on the first day it's out in Europe(To bad you guys have to wait for 2 weeks!) and it was great.....so great,dare I say it,it was better then Mario Kart 64 and Mario Kart DS put together OK,lets start this review by telling you about the controls,you can use Game cube controller,Classic controller,Wii wheel and Nunchuck,Wii Wheel is the best so I'll tell you about that;It's just like a normal wheel but it's much lighter,but this is a great update of the clunky old shell that was released about the same time as the Wii,anyhow,Move the wheel to steer,2 to go,1 to reverse,1 and B to power slide and push the wii wheel up to do a rick,these ''tricks'' are great,anytime to go up ANY type of ramp(As small as a bump in the road)just give the wii wheel a flick and when you land,you will get a speed bust,also,if your using a bike,you can do a wheelie Now lets move on to the characters,It's very hard to pick a character but I would go with the Baby characters as the fastest,Rosalina is strange because she's was heavy sized character,I thought she would be medium,I can't really review this part much because I didn't unlock any characters yet,also,you can use your mii,the weight of it depends on what type of weight you gave your mii when you were making it Now lets get onto the graphics,this thing looks like a sub-GCN,terrible to stuff,I'll give you a example; ![]() Look at DK's fur,it looks disgusting and bad to look at Ok,vehicles,we all know there would be bikes,but the bikes are WAY better then the karts,characters share vehicles by weight,so you can have Toad in a pram,or King Boo in a 70s car,the bikes are great too,I love the bullet bill bike that the light characters have Next up:Gameplay,remember that gameplay that is appearing to fade away because of Mario kart super circuit,Mario kart double dash!! and Mario Kart DS?(Because of it's slowness)........................................IT'S BACK HOME,it's just great,fast paced gameplay,this has better gameplay then 64 Next is Multiplayer,it is........good but not great,I never tried wi-fi but I played Multiplayer with my sister and the split screen is a tad annoying,but nevertheless,it's fun Tracks;a very inportent pat of Mario Kart,the tracks are great,fast,have lots of ramps,are good designed,tricks are useful in it,great names,perfect ideas,great retro tracks and they are just.......PERFECT,the most basic track is the Luigi circuit,the hardest would be Wario's mines,the retro tracks are just perfect and Rainbow Road has changed into a SMG theme Difectlty:This is probably a 50/50 opain,it all depends on if your new to a track,what track it is,what character your using and hat kart or bike your using Battle mode;This has a great battle mode,replacing the shine sprite run from the last game to a coin run,it also has retro battle tracks and solid multiplayer and finally:Items;all the normal items arehere,but it has the return of the great bulllt bill,there is also a lightning cloud item,after a while you get zapped by it,the trick to void the zap is to hit somebody else and make the cloud follow them,also there's the POW block,everyone(Including you)gets a POW block above there head,but it crushs everyone,the way to avoid it is to keep hitting it(By jumping) and it will disappear,the final one is the item from NSMB,the mega mushroom,it does the same thing as in the game,makes you giant I give you the final score.............96%,the problems I put up here are not big one,all I want you to do is BUY IT,there is one thing that really annoys me about this game,there isn't any mission mode!!! |

My bad. I would say I'm jealous but you guys usually get screwed on release dates so I can't be too upset. Im glad to here that they picked the pace back up. Quick question on the Mii's. Do you customise their weight setup or is it selected for you? |

I don't know,I haven't unlocked the mii's yet,but I'm close to getting Diddy! Edit:OK,I found out that it depends on what weight you put for your mii when you make it Also,I would like to say that the characters are harder to unlock then the last game(Spoilers ahead) for example:You have to have save file on SMG on your wii and beat all cups in 50cc to get Rosalina Hmm,I noticed that I just said how great this game is,I'll give you guys more info by editing my review |

You people in Europe are lucky...I guess. I thought that the review was "good", but it could use some work. But thanks for the review. ;D |

Stop complaining. Brawl is amazing, but MKW looks like one of the best racing games we'll see yet. Although, I do feel sorry for you guys in Europe. As Eomund said, you usually get screwed on release dates. One small bit of news is good, though---Japan never even got Jak 3. Just learned that recently. :D |
