The Bitbag: Mario Kart Wii Review

The Bitbag writes: "The latest Mario Kart is going to be a definite buy for fans of the Mario Kart series as the game includes many goodies for the faithful few. The Big N has packed in so many tributes to previous titles as well as many other games of the Nintendo universe that it's sure to provide plenty of nostalgia for older gamers. For the rest of the world, though, it's questionable whether the game is worth a whole half-a-bill.

First of all, I quickly disposed of the Wheel. Sorry. Not a fan. The Wii Remote and Nunchuk combo is the most comfortable and intuitive and I believe it is easier to perform all the functions that are available in the game with the said combination. Holding the Wheel in front of you in mid-air is just not a comfortable experience. Sure, my kids thought it was neat, but it wasn't for me. I also don't like holding the Wii Remote sideways and I've never felt the need to pay extra for the Classic Controller, so I can't comment on either of those methods."

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.

Sgt_Slaughter926d ago

Polygon having a bad take? Sounds 100% accurate to me.

Inverno926d ago

Baffles me that they haven't made any new dlc for this, and yet they focus on the mobile game smh

meganick926d ago

I can only imagine that the Mario Kart devs have been hard at work on the follow-up to 8, hence why it got no dlc.

Inverno926d ago

We can only assume that they'll show something next year if they are working on the next game. With the way Ninty has been announcing games close to their release they don't leave room for any leaked info

--Onilink--926d ago

Its not like its the same developer. The one working on the mobile game isnt even a Nintendo developer
