    WOW! Race on a motorcycle, dirtbike, go-kart/car, and who knows what else. Plus you can race as your own Mii AND possibly play online INTERNATIONALLY!
    Damn, I want to get this game and SSMB.

    I donno I was never a fan of the Gamecube or N64 incarnations of Kart, hopefully this version lives up to the hype.

    How pessimistic.

    Personally I thought the N64 version was great. The Gamecube title didn't live up to it, but it was still fun. After delivering Mario Kart DS (which is the best Mario Kart hands down), I'm confident Nintendo can deliver us a worthy Wii iteration. I just either hope that the Wii Wheel works great or if not, multiple control schemes.

    Mario Kart 64 is still my personal favorite in the series, but I've enjoyed them all overall. I'm looking forward to seeing how this one comes out (I already like the widescreen in this game). The Mii thing does nothing for me though, if I wanted to play with myself....:sly: 

    Then again Cheers racing could be fun?!

    I think the SNES Mario Kart kinda sucked. Yeah, I said it.

    N64 one was awful thanks to terrible course design and the DS version was ruined with the inclusion of snaking, making the online part utterly useless.

    YOU'RE WRONG McWRONG FROM WRONGSVILLE, ST. WRONGSVILLE.

    There, I said it.

    ...Ignoring Twin Twist's posts...

    It's a really great idea to see different vehicles for your racers now. Now I can finally race on a motorcycle instead of a kart for once. :D

    Some of the game sites are reporting that you can use a gamecube controller if you want for the game like in brawl!

    I hope it's true!
