I'm kind of hesitant to buy it (Unusual since i've owned every other single one and enjoyed the hell out of em)
Ever since the XBox 360 came into my life + Call of Duty 4 + various other games, i've seen my Wii as seriously Inferior. I only now switch it on rarely to play the Virtual Console games that are left on my console.
I know Mario Kart will be pretty serious to play, especially if i get into it online, but you know, it's going to feel a lil bit restricted thanks to no voice chat and stupid friend codes :P
For the record, i used to be on the Wii side. It's 360 all the way now.

yeah, i didn't even know this shit was coming out until yesterday. I'm definitely gonna be getting it, Mario Kart 64 is one of my favorite games of all time, and even though the GC version sucked cock, it looks like they're gonna step it up again on this one. All i can say is, it better be good.

Yea same here, reluctant but i prolly will get it cause i loved the SNES version ;D

I got it too, i had second thoughts yesterday to buy it, but the first thing i thought of when i woke up was Mario Kart so i had to go buy it. Good thing i reserved it Thursday ;) IT WAS SOLD OUT LIKE A BITCH EVERYWHERE :|
Down where i live we have a big Game store, Gamestation, Woolworths, Argos, etc etc. Mario Kart was under big demand apparently.
But yeah, to me this is a seriously decent mario kart of the series, only one or two things annoy me about this so far...
1) No more 2P Grand Prix? WTF >:(
2) Lol the computer is even more determined to make you not have 1st place, the Pow block and blue shells are the new 'common annoyances'.
3) I like the addition of races with 12 people, but so far i've gotten into 100cc, and believe me when you take hits and you haven't pulled away far enough, you pay for it lool. On rainbow road i actually finished 10th....But i won the cup overall lol.
Buy it, you won't go wrong.
Oh btw i use the Gamecube pad to drive about, fuck the gimmick with the steering wheel, there's no room for amatuers when you go online. 8)

yeah GC controller all the way. i went into the local GAME today and it was sold out, i had a good chuckle when i saw that. i aint had time to play it though i keep falling alseep after work. from what i could see the sliding system has changed a lot though. they've dumbed it down so you cant do it all the time, which is annoying. im sure plenty of expert techniques will be developed but taking out the powersliding system is majorly annoying. that was what seperated the wack players from anyone remotely good on the 64, GC and DS versions. funny thing is as the DS version went online all these people started saying that sliding, or 'snaking' was actually cheating and exploiting the game mechanics, cause the people who couldn't do it were getting their asses whooped. and it seems like nintendo must have listened to those fools...

Yeap. I've always enjoyed 2P Grand Prix races to be honest. Having that removed was evil, but they made up for it for having online 2P on the same screen thing. That's a nice addition. I need to test online sometime :).
LMFAO at the Game people who tried hustling me into buying a piece of plastic for £5 (That stupid wii wheel but Game branded)

got it great.
