Nintendo - Mario Kart Wii — 

Any fan of the mario kart games will enjoy this new racer on the Wii! The makers have incorporated tracks from the previous mario games(64, double dash, etc)and even include a "wheel". While the wheel is a nice novelty that my son enjoys using, I find that my husband and I prefer to use the nunchuk and wii-mote. Some of the races are tough,yet fun! fun! fun! and it doesn't pay to consistently run in first place as you're CONSTANTLY bombarded by shells, lightening, and anything else your competitors throw at you(First Place Frustration!!!). If you're quick you can put up a defense, except for that dreaded nuclear winged blue shell! This is a great game with total chaos at times. Hang in there, get used to the tracks and after you open it, you get to play as any Mii you have. they online play is great too. We've experienced not problems yet. Just plain AWESOMENESS!
