Excite Mario Kart!

doesn't excite me at all tbh. The tricks thing could be good if it gives u more speed or something though

Still, I predict a million seller.

This pretty much looks near identical to Mario Cart on the gamecube. Is that a bad thing or not?

Either way, mario kart is a console seller.

I don't like Mario Kart, too slow. I've been spoiled by the Burnout series ;_;

Graphics do look a lot like the Gamecube one, but the Wii is barely more powerful than a GC, so you can't really expect more than that. I worry that some of those screens look like they have a tint to them, I wonder if Nintendo is thinking about getting on the monochrome graphics train with Epic.

I really loved SMK on SNES, such a epic game for me. MK64 was fairly disappointing. Both portable Mario Karts were pretty good, and the DS one nearly felt as good as the original SMK. I didn't play a lot of the Gamecube one, didn't feel too great.

I hope the online modes are as fleshed out as one would expect from a current gen racing game. I wonder if there will be online battle mode. I hope the online play isn't as exploitable as MKDS.

MK64 was epic as well. The first time you could have 4 players in a multi level 3d environment (talking about battle mode). I played that game for hours making everyone my little bitch.

Thank god they got rid of that horrible idea (DOUBLE/TWO RIDERS)

This'll be THE best Mario Kart EVER! MKDS was a dream come true, and I think this will take this to new heights.

Project Mario Kart Racing 4

Now with the inclusion of bikes!

But seriously, it does look pretty cool.

Mario Kart SNES will never be beaten, that game was just such an incredible game. I liked the Gamecube Mariokart, though not as much as the SNES one.

This looks like it could be fun, might persuade me to finally get a Wii.

This reminds of those Super Mario Excite Bike games on SNES satelite.. thing.... it was pretty fun, they should just include those.

Why do people over the age of 10 care about Gamecube, I mean Wii?

Exactly what I thought when I saw the scans. lol
Guess Nintendo must be running out of ideas as well...

Probably because we're not all big tough men like you.

Cyberpunklol.

Oh first post, hi all!

It seemed to me that Double Dash was an attempt to sort of blend F-Zero and Mario Kart, and I never really thought the huge corners and thus wide roads complemented the inherently heartwarming and sort of charming characters and their little rides.

SNES Mario Kart had tracks that sort of "hugged" the screen, whereas the later ones (MKDS excluded) were too wide to have that same visual appeal.

After the FANTASTIC job Sega did on F-Zero GX it's odd that they won't let Mario Kart be a slower, more intimate kind of game and just keep outsourcing its snazzier futuristic brother to Amusement Vision, but at least this entry seems like it embraces its new format 100%, unlike DD that still tried to stand with one foot in the Mario Kart of old. I honestly think this looks rather nice.

Meanwhile, Amusement Vision is chucked out of the running for making Wii F-Zero in favour of Monster Games of Excite Truck fame. At least this is what I've heard. I liked Excite Truck *a lot*, but it strikes me as an odd match nonetheless.

DD had some issues, but Nintendo got back on track with Mario Kart DS, and this looks like a return to form (plus bikes ^_^).

And no, it dosn't look exactly like DD. Compared to the Cube title, everything has that subtle extra layer of polish - as with Galaxy and Brawl.
