Overall, Jolt were mighty impressed with Mario Kart Wii. Nintendo have managed to make the Wii-wheel work – something they were very sceptical about – and they've managed to bring Mario Kart online play to their TVs. Besides a few niggles with unfair A.I. and some average tracks, this is a valuable addition to the series and one that Jolt would definitely recommend to any racing fan.

For a lot of people, Mario Kart Wii was their introduction to the franchise, and what a terrific introduction they had.
Major 2023 game anniversaries include The World Ends With You, Mario Kart Wii, and The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, among many others
Nintendo has provided a sales update on Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, and it's confirmed that the game has now outsold Mario Kart Wii.
Always remember Polygon's take on MK 8 and how it would end up being worse selling entry in franchise history. Oof. MK 8 deluxe is going to have one hell of a holiday. You know that Switch bundle is coming back.
Baffles me that they haven't made any new dlc for this, and yet they focus on the mobile game smh
