Default Mario Kart Wii
I borrowed this today of a friend, It's so insanely addictive! I haven't really played much Mario Kart since the 64 edition but I think this one's fun.

I love how they've got upgraded tracks from the other games in there too and the Bikes are a cool feature. The only thing I don't like...They've turned the Rainbow Road from a jaunty enjoyable marathon into a cruel vindictive leather bound drive into HELL!!!!!!

Apart from that we're cool.

Rainbow Road is the bane of my life.

Amazing game, but I have golds on my entire driving license, even the mirror edition, so not much to do now unless I play online lol.

I don't know why they turned it into such a cruel bitch, It was so fun and easy going in the N64 version!

I've got golds on all the 50CC cups, gonna start on the 100CC tomorow (or technically later on today).

I've got online working on my Wii now. I've had an hour or so on it and it's too addictive! I've not had a 1st place finish yet but in most of my races I finish in the top 4 so all's good.

Who's everyone's favourite characters? Toad, Koopa and Diddy Kong are my Homeboys. So to speak.

EDIT: Koopa Trooper I should say.

Pretty addictive game, but I could never wrap my head around how slow moving the games are, especially since the backwards-in-time Mario Kart DS. A game with this much fun jammed into it with wipeout speeds would be incredible.

The whole reason I want to buy a wii is for this, I love mario kart, and I LOVED the double dash.

Have you been coming first in the cups? When you win cups you unlock new cups with their own tracks.

Alternatively if you have online you can just keep racing, I've unlocked soem items by just racing online so I'd imagine it being the same with levels.
