The Wonderful World Of Mario Kart Wii
While I’ve enjoyed many video games through the course of my life, perhaps my favorite has been the new Mario Kart game for the Nintendo Wii. I can’t seem to put this game down and it’s been a year since I bought it.
I’m not joking when I say that my grandfather came over and played this game, and won his first race! It was on the easy level, but still, it goes to show just how easy it is to pick something up like this.
I love this video game for so many different reasons. Dating back to the original Mario Kart release in the early 90s, this game stays true to its original form and gives us so many of the elements we’ve grown to love. At the same time, it really masters its integration with the capabilities of the Wii.
Basically, you’re given a wheel to plug your remote into, which allows you to wirelessly steer your driver during every race. This is an extremely accurate wheel, and it genuinely turns exactly as you do as you’re turning the wheel.
The boards are fast paced and the tracks are extremely competitive and fun. Perhaps my favorite thing about the game is the online play mode. I find myself playing online more often than any other way, as the game can be a bit less challenging once you beat it.
In online mode, you’re able to join races of anywhere from 2 to 11 cars. The best part about it is that it’s all live, and your opponents are other owners of the game. It’s a really enjoyable challenge, and I’m seriously addicted to it. There’s also a point structure that rewards you when you win.
The ranking system is great in the sense that it really lets you know how good you are compared to other people out there. This feeds right into my competitive spirit and makes things a lot of fun.
I’ve talked enough about the game. You can see that I absolutely love it, and there’s no doubt in my mind that you will too.
