Featured reviews
Having grown up with this game, I can honestly say this's the best MK game made by Nintendo. It's fun, creative and has a lot of variety. The controls are simple yet effective, the tricks are fun to do and the power-ups are fun to use on your rivals. It's even possible to throw a banana at the blue shell if timed right. You can also look behind you by pressing the "A" button.
The graphics are pretty good too. Sometimes the renders look strange but they still look good for the most part. My only gripe with the game is if you unlocked characters or karts from your wii, you can't transfer them to another whenever you bring it over to a friend's house. That's annoying. Otherwise, it's a very solid game. I highly recommend it to anyone who likes the MK series.

Yeah that may not be an original opinion but can you blame me? Mario Kart Wii introduced so many new gameplay features such as bikes, 12 racers, tricks and coin runners, what more could you ask for? Better graphics maybe but it never bothered me that much when the track selection is PHENOMENAL. Coconut Mall, Koopa Cape, Wario's Gold Mine, Maple Treeway, Mushroom Gorge, DK Summit, Toad's Factory, Grumble Volcano, Bowser's Castle, Rainbow Road, all of these are just amazing! It has plenty of ways to contrrol to. The Wii remote which you steer left and right to turn you vehicle, the pro-controller which I don't have to explain but the third is my favourite Mario Kart control scheme, the Wii remote and nunchuck. This works so well and I even use to separate Joy-Cons sometimes when I'm playing Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, but it doesn't work as well. And while I admit that game is technically better I will always prefer Mario Kart Wii over any game in the series!
I had so much fun with this game.
My ride was the bullet bill car with the Baby Peach. I dominated the league with that infant.
The graphics were fine. The challenge was fine. It was such a fun game.
Mario Kart was pure fun. MKW was the perfect Wii game.
Verdict: 1st for 99% of a race finish 8th at the end.

This is my least favorite Mario Kart game. I played it a lot when we got a Wii. But I could never beat it. Whenever I get in first place, all hell breaks loose. Every time within three seconds I get hit with a spiny shell, hit with a POW block, then hit with a regular shell. EVERY TIME! The game does not play fair. At least it's successor Mario Kart 8 was better in that aspect but I still prefer Double Dash.
I love the new karts dirt bikes. Those are so cool. And I love that you an do a wheely to gain more speed and that's another cool feature. The Wii steering option wheel made it more realistic. It felt like you were actually driving. I'm so glad that they put in the baby versions of Princess Peach, Daisy, Mario, Luigi as playable characters. I love that they put in older tracks in the from other Mario Kart games.
