Product Summary:
As one of the first video games for the Nintendo Wii, Mario Kart sold out immediately and was on back order for several months. When I purchased this game, I went bananas for it! Players have several options as to what courses, characters, and vehicles that they would like to use during the game. Plus, Mario Kart can be played with a special wheel, game controller, and nun chuck. When players finish choosing their characters thye can also choose what kind of race they would like to play (Battle or one on one racing). Mario Kart allows up to flour players to participate in races, which makes this an excellent friends and family game.

The graphics in this game are just stunning. When players reach the race track that takes place in outer space, the colors and the track, itself, is just amazing especially on a high definition television. The sound effects and the music is as cute as can be, especially "Moo Moo Meadows." The game does take a few trials to understand the rules and the functions, but once players know when to use the prize cubes they collect then the competition is on! 'Tweens will definitely enjoy unlocking all kinds of prizes and vehicles as they conquer each course, and ultimately, the entire game.
