Mario Kart Wii – Reviews are coming in March 28, 2008
Official Nintendo Magazine UK – 94/100
A fantastic racer and the best online Nintendo game ever. [Apr 2008, p.58]
Games Master UK – 91/100
It’s the ultimate Mario Kart package rather than the best, but it’s still a lot of fun. [Apr 2008, p.47]
NGamer UK – 88/100
A really solid Mario Kart with a terrific online setup. There’s plenty here to make up for the disappointment of local multiplayer, but it does stop short of magnificence.
EuroGamer – 80/100
Ultimately, the sheer sensory pleasure of playing Mario Kart Wii – from the charming animations, to the bopping tunes, to the sugar-rush boosting, to the exquisite steering – far overcomes the few concerns we have about it. It still has to be docked a mark for the awkward structure and compromised multiplayer modes – but it’s still unreservedly recommended to anyone for whom Mario Kart is a gaming cornerstone.

Not too bothered about the local multiplayer. I haven’t played multiplayer mariokart (or any other game for that matter) with my mates for about 8 years! We’ve all grown up, moved away and found other stuff to do. I’m married now so the online aspect is great to allow me to race friends (codes)
