So Mario Kart Wii is now not only a must buy for me, instead it is a ... well .... mega must buy :)

It's the mustest buy there ever was.

I was thinking, "Decapitating each others's Mii's in Mortal Kombat?..AWESOME"

I hate Nintendo. They are making me spending money!

Ummm... Am I the only one disappointed in this? Mii's look ugly... VERY ugly. I'm going to hate racing them online. They just stand out way too much for my liking (Mario, Peach, Mii face!?).

I guess it's not all bad. I can't wait until the first time I see Hitler racing down the track whipping shells at me! Knowing the internet, that might be within the first couple of races XD

nice addition to the game

The Wii installment of the cart racer that started it all looks like it's going to have lots of variety. Famitsu reveals a total of 32 courses, with 16 remakes of old courses, and 16 completely new courses. New courses include Mario Circuit, Momo Country, Kinopio Factory, DK Snowboard Cross, Coconuts Mall, Kinoko Canyon, and Luigi Circuit.

Some of these courses will put a new feature of the karts to use: mid-air tricks! Karts and bikes are both capable of performing actions and tricks in the air. Get a trick just right, and your cart will perform a dash upon landing.

In addition to a ton of content, Mario Kart Wii will have some serious multiplayer options. The game will include Wi-Fi based play for up to 12 players. You'll be able to select to play against players from throughout the world, players in your country, and players on your friend list.

As part of the new network mode, Nintendo will be making use of the Wii's Channel interface in yet another unique way. We're not sure of the specifics, but it seems that you'll be able to install a Mario Kart Channel to your Wii hub to view world rankings as well as your own records.

Going along with the Wi-Fi multiplayer play, Nintendo will be giving players a means of customizing the game. You'll be able to make your very own Mii ride a bike or kart, adding that bit of you to online races.

The online mode will also expand the single player fun. The game will offer downloadable ghost data, so you can play against some of the best players.

Not big on the whole internet thing? In addition to the Wi-Fi play, the game will also let players play together the old fashioned way: through split screen for up to four.

Can't wait to race my Mii!!! 

 WHAT?! It suppose to release "worldwide"at the same time

DARN! This means I'm getting SSBB and MKWII in Europe at the same time :( Why couldn't they let Europe be the beta place for once? :(

wow, i'm the 1000th person to make a comment about performing a fatality on a Mii. Just think about ripping Kenny's head straight off
