Are the keys to the kart the keys to your heart?

Mar 24, 2008

The brothers Mario clash on the racetrack. As their karts grind together, the combined mach speed threatens to tear the lip warmers from their very faces. The scene seethes with venom - never has Nintendo dredged up such ferocious rivalry. As an opening FMV? It’s a killer. As an indicator of the day at the races to follow? They’re being a little liberal with the truth.Entering our first race - Luigi’s Circuit in Mario’s ...

Mario Kart Wii

Or, Mario Kart-vs-Bikes-vs-Hotrods Wii

Jan 23, 2008

With Mario Kart Wii, in a lot of ways well be going back to basics. No more double-dashing, or having other characters riding shotgun. One vehicle, one rider and - hopefully - one hell of a time to be had. That said, Nintendo seems to have gone a little wild with the karts. Each character has a range of unique vehicles. Mario has a kart, at least, so the title isnt a lie. Wario has hot rod muscle cars (of course), while Baby Mario poodles about in a turbo-charged pram. Most surprisingly, ... » Read Full Mario Kart Wii preview

Nov 8, 2007

Nov 8, 2007 The more we see of this, the less it seems like it should be limited to the Kart name. Perhaps a better title would be 'Mario Racers' or something like that, as the many vehicles available for each character will also include motorbikes. Flat-out speed seems to be the big advantage to using a bike, with a turbo boost function that hoists the front wheel off the floor and cuts through traffic at a blindingly fast rate. Bikes can still use the normal weapon set available to the ... » Read Full Mario Kart Wii preview

Preparing to launch a blue shell from 10,000 miles away

Oct 18, 2007

Oct 18, 2007 Classic circuits from every previous game… Swappable vehicles… Online tournaments with up to 12 players… A huge roster of characters… Brand new motion controls and a free steering wheel. You could knock us down with a green shell if this isn't the biggest and most ambitious Mario Kart to date - and a rival to Smash Bros as Nintendo Online Event of the Year.

I really like this game, and I must say that playing online is a lot better than single player. I also love the courses- Rainbow Road is one of my favorite ones. The battle games are pretty fun too, but why in the world would you want to tie a balloon- three of them at that- on the back of a kart, and then zip around popping them? It isn't that fun... Either way, this is certainly my favorite. But what is wrong with wheelies? Every single time I try to stop a wheelie, I can't get it to, and I run into the darn walls!
