its fun

It's not disposable. As in... it won't be replaced by the next big kart racer a couple weeks later. In fact, it won't be replaced until the next Mario Kart comes out, years later.



Because it's the best game on the Wii?

Anyone who has played Mario Kart Wii at a friend's place has to own it. It's that good.

I did, and hated it. I clearly do not need to own it. But I own all the other Mario Karts. Worst Mario Kart to date. Which of course is strictly my opinion.

I actually agree somewhat, although I think it's better than Double Dash, but Double Dash was my least favourite by far.

I think the biggest thing I dislike about MKWii is that they made the tracks so much larger/wider to allow for the extra racers. I much preferred it when it was designed for eight racers.

Nothing to do with the game - it's because it's frequently bundled with the wii.
As I say, if Oblivion was still being bundled with the 360, that'd have sold a ridiculous amount.

^^Agreed. It's a great game so it keeps selling well. It's pretty simple really.

right, right



Not a 360 fanboy, just a PS3 fanboy hater that likes putting them in their place ^.^

IMO, Mario Kart DS is better than Mario Kart Wii.
Yeah, they are both fun, but I never really got hooked on MK Wii.
However, I played the heck out of MK DS...
I don't know why, that's just the way it is for me.



 Been away for a bit, but sneaking back in.

Gaming on: PS4, PC, 3DS. Got a Switch! Mainly to play Smash

There has never been an official MKWii bundle. Ever.

Because it has Wii in the title, if you didn't notice. It feels like absolute crap compared to Mario Kart Double Dash.

If you own a Wii you need to own Mario Kart. It's that simple.
