My wife has been wanting this and I must admit I loved MK on the super nintendo.

Anyway I picked it up yesterday and also bought a second steering wheel, it was about $63 total purchase.

This game is awesome, I was playing the single player and having a blast. Then my singer stopped by and we did some split screen races.

It supports 4 players local and also lets you do a two playewr split and join online games. I was racing against 12 other yahoos from across the US and Brazil (it shows everybodys location on a map as it introduces them) and must say it was just a blast.

I have been second guessing the Wii since purchase (Wii sports is cool, but not $250 cool) and I now finally have a game that makes it seem worthwhile.

I've been playing Medal of Honor and I must say I'm addicted. The zapper thing really makes a game a lot more fun... screw buttons... give me something to shoot with - lol

Hah, too true, I have heard the gun in that game is just amazing and was reviewed as the best shooter controls in a game.

Yeah, the wheel is just crazy fun. It took me awhile to quit waving my arms around like mad and actually just turn the wheel :)

I have Mario Kart (Wii Version) but the kids have the damn thing tied up all the time. I hate summer, when they are out of school.

Haha BM, that is a bummer. Me and my neighbor played the split screen online last night until midnight. We actually had to force ourselves off of it to get some sleep for work.

I tried mario kart wii, but I didn't get to use the driver wheel, i had to use some old school controller (looked like the gamecube controller). It sucked. I used to go hard on mario kart on the super nes back as a freshman in college. wow that was a long time ago...

I'm actually digging wii tennis though.
