Mario Kart Wii
Despite being one of Nintendo's highest profile upcoming releases, we've actually heard relatively little about Mario Kart Wii so far, other than, that is, scraps of information plucked from a couple of screenshots and scans from magazines.

Core Gaming Group, Nintendo's representative company in South Africa, launched two popular Wii titles at a press event held this past Friday in Johannesburg. In addition, after roughly a year of the world's best selling handheld console being absent from the South African market, Core Group relaunched the Nintendo DS Lite.
The media briefing was presented by RJ van Spaandonk, the executive director of Core Group. RJ outlined the upcoming Wii releases, detailed the Nintendo DS Lite relaunch information and discussed the success that the Nintendo Wii has enjoyed in South Africa since its launch here in October 2007.
The Nintendo DS Lite was relaunched in South Africa and will soon be available in stores. It will retail at R1 799 and is available in four colours: black, white, silver and pink.

"Take a gander at the image above as what looks to be the final box art for Mario Kart Wii. As we can all plainly see, the box looks to be rather large to help accommodate the "Wii wheel" pack in that comes with the title. I must insist that this is purely a rumor for the final box art but I have to say that I don't mind it at all.
What do you guys think?"
See the box art after the jump!

Kotaku reports the next issue of German gaming pub NMag features a cover story on the upcoming Wii racer Mario Kart Wii as well as a few tiny tidbits on what we can expect from the waggle-enabled iteration. In addition to appearances from drivers like Mario, Wario, Luigi, Waluigi, Bowser, Peach, and Donkey Kong, the mag confirms that Boo and Baby Peach will also have driving duties. Not surprising, as we'd seen the former in at least one trailer, with the latter only making sense, given that Baby Mario and Baby Luigi will also star.
The mag, by way of GoNintendo, also mentions that at least 32 tracks are planned and that the dreaded "snaking" method of boosting will be included
Details:
-Sliding and snaking confirmed
-Baby Peach, Boo to be drivers
-online battle mode
-16 new + 16 old courses
-different vehicles for every driver
-controls can be compared to Excite Truck

Just what in the hell is going on with Mario and Peach? It was so simple back in the old NES days of Super Mario Bros. She got herself kidnapped, he went after her with the help of Luigi, and all ended happily ever after. Or so we thought. The thing is that it didn't really. It's become ever more apparent that since that first rescue things have only ever got messier, dirtier and more manipulative in their relationship. Far from the innocent damsel and hero set-up that appeared ...

Mario Kart Wii is not due out for a few months yet, but US magazine Nintendo Power has already had a go and the feedback is promising.
Following confusion over how many players will be in a race in the new game, NP confirms that the game will feature 12-player racing online, with an improved version of Mario Kart DS' matchmaking system that should get you into races far quicker than the portable could manage.
Performing stunts, as seen in previously released screenshots, will ...

Oct. 12, 2007
Call us Mario Kart purists, but we started becoming unhappy with the direction of Nintendo's racing series as soon as the karts stopped being karts and started being miniature racing cars.
The last home console instalment, Double Dash, was arguably the worst in the series and we mostly put that down to the fact that it didn't feel like the Mario Kart we know and love.
The colorful GameCube version lost all sensation of carving a perfect corner and clipping centimetres off your ...

When it rains, it pours Mario news. Not only have we learnt over the last 48 hours that Mario Kart Wii has been delayed (boo!), but now we can see that there's a new racer joining the fold (Boo!).
Keep your eyes peeled on the footage below, taken from Nintendo's recent autumn conference. At about two-thirds of the way through, ghostly karter Boo whizzes by. Soon after, Mario pulls out bags of style as he pops a wheelie on the game's new motorbikes. Brill. ...
