'Tis a really nice game and the steering wheel is nice as well (something i doubted considering other racing games but hey it actually works well). I also like it that they have more cups this time, so all in all I really like it so far (gonna play it some more with a friend tonight).

It's obviously because we got brawl before them. It's a conspiracy I say.

They deserve it though, they've been getting the !@#$% end of the deal for a long time.
My brother's preordering this right now so I'll be getting it when it comes out here.

Why can't they just coordinate the damned releases worldwide? >.< Whatever. I have it preordered. I'll get a day or two after release (27th).

Well even for us europeans the chances are slim for getting one at the moment. I mean I had to go to five different shops 'fore I got one. Still it was worth it, only thing I don't like is that there is no 2-player grand prix.

Europe might, but Japan doesn't. Not only did Japan get Mario Kart Wii earlier then Europe (just one day, but that's still earlier), they also got Brawl before America, and America got Brawl before Europe.

While Japan often gets games earlier, when it comes to western games, they often get them months to years after, or even not at all.  And yes, there ARE good western games :P

But its fine with me; its about time europe/australia got some games before us :D

We got Minish Cap and that Tingle game early as well. I guess they're the only ones...

To put things in perspective, we still haven't even got a release date for Brawl. That's how much things suck ass over here.

I laugh in America's face. I LAUGH.

We also got the DS Lite and Phantom Hourglass earlier than the US >____>... just not Brawl.

Also, yeah, I'm really excited for Mario Kart Wii. It looks so cool n___n.

Well even for us europeans the chances are slim for getting one at the moment. I mean I had to go to five different shops 'fore I got one. Still it was worth it, only thing I don't like is that there is no 2-player grand prix.
What? WHAT?! Please tell me you're joking?! Is there some sort of... similar equivalent?

!@#$%, my friend's gonna be really pissed >.<

I suppose... it's because Mario Kart Wii was made by the same guys who made Mario Kart DS, and not Double Dash... where Mario Kart DS didn't have 2-player GP either, because it was on the DS... but still, this really REALLY bothers me. 2 (or more) player GP is what made every single Mario Kart fun, even the one 64.

Taking it out is just like murdering the franchise.

Then again, I didn't notice its absence on the DS, so maybe I won't on the Wii either @___@... still, my Mario Kart buddy is going to be really pissed off >.<...

Ahh, Nintendo...

Then again, everything else about the game sounds great. Tracks, controls, items, online. Seems like Nintendo has done pretty well. I guess I'll just have to play vs. mode with my buddies, considering none of us like battle.

Yeah, I've played all mario karts with a friend so this is annoying for us. Still besides that it is a great game 'cept for the times the cpu players throw like five blue shells a pow block and a gooper at you, then you really hate the cpu's.

Hold the phone, I've discovered you can essentially play a GP match with a friend or online:

That makes me feel better :)

But in Mario Kart DS couldn't you just do a VS race and say "With CPUs"? That's essentially the same thing.
