Mario Kart incl. Wii Wheel (Wii)

We have had the Nintendo Wii for about a year now and only really used it when people came round, probably because we had only got Wii Sports and hadn't really bothered to get any more games for it. This christmas we decided to get some new games for it and start using it a bit more, so I will be reviewing Wii games for the next couple of weeks!! I will start with my favourite one - Mario Kart Wii The Wii Wheel You can buy this game on its own, however I got the boxed version with the wheel included, so you get the official Nintendo wheel and the game with instructions. Everything you need to get started for one player, assuming you already have a ...  Read the complete review

INTRO Whilst it may not quite be immersing yourself into the world of the latest Legend Of Zelda, there is certainly something that about the churning out of a new Mario Kart title on every new Nintendo console that gets me all warm and fuzzy inside. Probably not quite the counting the hours anticipation that comes with those huge 'killer app' titles though. With the original MK title being released on the SNES, we saw Mario getting pawned off for one of his first sporting outfits in a go-kart. The title garnered aload of popularity and to this date is still regarded by many as the best of all the name-sake games to follow it. I find it hard to deny that my ...  Read the complete review

Mario kart is a racing game involving many super Mario characters driving around different circuits in a number of different karts/bikes. The characters are Mario, Luigi, Princess peach, baby princess peach, yoshi, toad, kooper trooper, Bowser, Daisy, Baby Daisy, Boo, Donley Kong, Wario, Waluigi and of course your own Mii. Mario kart was released on the wii in two different formats. The first was the software only, and the second came with the wii wheel. The wii wheel I a plastic wheel funnily enough that houses your wiimote horizontally. It makes it easier to play the game in some instances, as you hold something that's round not rectangular. The wheel ...  Read the complete review

This was the first game apart from Wii Sports I purchased for my Nintendo Wii console earlier this year, I couldn't wait to get my teeth into a good old racing game....or so I thought. It comes boxed with a Wii 'wheel which is just a shaped plastic steering wheel which the Wii controller slots into and provides a good driving experience!! The main features of the game are single player mode, with single races or grand prix championships, time trials, battles, and an amazing multiplayer mode whether online or offline with friends. Playing involves first setting up your 'record card' which tracks your progress as you win grand prix etc, and ...  Read the complete review

I thought I would give reviewing this computer game a go as it seems to be on in my house for a considerable amount of time per day, thanks to my kids. The game I will review is - "Mariokart Wii" As you will know the concept of this game is a driving game that incorporates a traditional style steering wheel, though you can play the game without if you prefer, hence the reason that when you buy the game it does come with one steering wheel, costing around the £30.00 mark. Due to the fact this was brought for my kids we had to get another steering wheel so there would be no fights, this will cost around the £5.00 mark, though Poundland ...  Read the complete review
