Mario kart Wii is a good Mario kart-- not much more to it than that. this game was very present in the childhoods of people my age, and there are a luxurious amount of tracks here, and I remember a lot of them well still. however, I never played it in the school-bus-competitive way i did Mario kart DS, and so I always felt that this game, despite its visuals, paled on comparison. in 2023 it's fun still, Mario kart is hard to get wrong. the bikes are cool. Funky Kong yelling is hilarious.
