Wii Would Like To Race

February 24th, 2008 by Michael Kwan

Mario Kart Wii looks pretty sweet, but that tiny Wii Wheel just seems… odd. The concept isn’t new, because GT Pro Series came with a steering wheel attachment too, but when you throw in some of Nintendo’s best known characters and offer them in a fantastic arcade racing experience, you know that you’ve got a winner. I loved Mario Kart 64 and Mario Kart DS, so I’m pretty sure that I’m going to love Mario Kart Wii as well, especially since it’s going to be online.

Even so, I think I’m looking forward even more to Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Having Sonic, Solid Snake, and Samus beating the crap out of Pikachu is somehow more satisfying than using Diddy Kong to drop a banana peel in front of Luigi.
