My Mario Kart Wii review

[ameratsu]

I think this game is pretty good. Since I haven't had *that* much time with it, i'll just give some impressions.

- Really good variety of levels from mario kart games
- The implementation of your Miis into different levels is humorous and makes for fun multiplayer (in the shopping mall level they are driving cars that can block your path)
- It has the pick up and play factor to it that few good racing games do

- some awesome power-ups. Especially like the bomb, growth mushroom and golden mushroom

some negative points
- They broke battle mode. Unless I'm missing something, they force you to play on a team with a bunch of NPCs and once you lose all your 3 balloons you get more balloons and keep going. It's score based instead of elimination based. They should of added a "classic" mode. (Maybe it's unlockable?)
- I hate the menus. Would it kill them to make some better menus (and less cumbersome) that got you into the feel of the game, instead of feeling like they were added at the last minute?
- Feels somewhat rushed together. After games like Galaxy, MP3 and Zelda I guess there's a level of polish I expect from nintendo games, and this doesn't quite live up to that.

Another thing I don't get, since Bowser keeps being a dick by kidnapping Peach, why do they invite him to go karting? Seems like they should cut him off.
