wheeee!
Cool getting it friday :)
Sounds fun. I wasn't too hyped but I'm quite loaded atm so I may go and buy it tomorrow. Thats if there are any left. :P
I'll race you init Jack.
Hows the controls?
Can you use a gamecube controller?
I believe there's GCN/Wii Wheel/Nunchuck+Wiimote controls. I'll be picking this up when it's out here.
Im going to use a GC controller, I have mine pre-ordered though my mum is going to collect tomarrow, my mate has it.
It's alright, good game though IMO Brawl's better and I know you'll say how can you compare 2 different genre's, I dont know lol I like Brawl alot.
Oh come on! Racing games are ideal for the wii, you get the chance to use it like a proper steering wheel (and I'm not talking about the crappy attachments you could get for other consoles, I could never find a comfortable way to use them!). Using a gamecube controller sort of defeats the point a bit.
The Wii is all about innovation, but I don't really like to upgrade anything unless I have to. I thought the Wii Wheel looked kind of awkward, especially in a hectic game like Mario Kart. I don't really think it fits in with the way the game is and plays, maybe it'll be better to use it with a more realistic driving game. I know I'll prefer the gamecube controller anyway, simply because I've grown up playing Mario Kart that way. :P Although I really liked the controls Excite Truck had, if you can play like that I may consider changing, but you couldn't actually use a gamecube controller with that game, so...
Using a gamecube controller doesn't defeat the point because Nintendo wants the Wii to be for everyone, they want it so new gamers can just come along and start playing straight away without difficulty. There are so many different control variations to fit all the different kind of gamers needs. Some may prefer a remote, some may prefer a controller.
I might pop down to Tescos or Asda tomorrow and hopefully they wont have sold out.
i just got back from GAME. where i pre-ordered it. to find out my wii controller batteries are flat :( so there on charge then ill test drive :D!
My mum and dad are coming home from shopping, they got it, now I wait.
Got my game ^_^ managed to get it for the cheap price of £21 ^_^
Student discount + money on reward card
Games good and i liek using the steering wheel, wifi seems good but ppl constantly barging into you gets annoying.
I bought it, it came with one of them wheels in all :P
Yea i never preordered it wasnt any items with it. Gamestation was only giving you a little egg with a little kart in it. but there :S plus there only like £2
Edit: http://www.habboxforum.com/showthrea...17#post4641417 My thread about a possible league or tournement through habbo or the forum, post your ideas or if you want to participate (Wii & DS mario karts )
when you put mk in for the first time did it ask you to update it? sorry random question :3
yes it did, just updates takes 5 secs then u can play ^^
Got it just after 9 this morning.
Awesome.
The wii wheel is really good, graphics (artwork) is amaze, i love the new tracks, wifi is wicked (battles too) all in all wicked
Ask me for my friend code
Bought mine from HMV, £35. :P Aswell as Highlander on DVD. :8
I have no batteries though so my Wii remotes are dead. I'll be using a gamecube controller for a while.
keep getting a/b ranks.. how you get a star rating? like is it based on times of your lap? just cant seem to get one and you need to get it :(
lol i bought one when iw as uptown i wanted yoshi but i got dk :(
It's as good as all the other Mario Kart games, no better, no worse. However. I HATE THE WHEEL. I just can't turn with it. :P
I'm planning to buy a copy tomorrow from Zavvi, I'll be destroying you all soon!
The online is brilliant. :P No lag at all, I got disconnected once but was probably my fault. I keep coming first though, I need to race some good people!
Before I got Mario Kart Wii I thought I would most likely prefer to use the NGC Controller. However, now I have tried the wheel I much more prefer to use the wheel instead.
I find it as easy to turn with the wheel then with the NGC Controller. The wheel just brings fun into the game.
Just added a bunch of people Msged all the ppl i have ^^
hopefull get a few games ^^
