Now i'm just angry. How does Gamesradar do this, and retain any shred of legitimacy?

It's funny.

And I, a long time Nintendo fan, expect it to happen. Shouldn't that be worrying Nintendo's marketing department?

It was funny until they implied that Mario Kart Wii was a bad game.

They didn't say that it was bad, but that it was a "phoned-in sequel". Which it was. You can't really change up Mario Kart.....

So double the numbe of tracks as other Mario Karts, tons of characters, tons of different karts, the addition of bikes, and the addition of online is "phoned-in"?

If Mario Kart is "phoned-in", then so is every other game this generation.

You could say the same of Madden. They add new character and a few new features.

Online play is a standard. The inclusion should be expected.

The only big change I see in MKWii is the bikes. They play differently, while only slightly, and it helps mix things up.

They're criticizing it for the same reason people do sports game. They just add more of what exists and a new game mode. Although, we games like this, you can't change Mario Kart too much.

I could say the same of every sequel this generation if you put it like that.
