Where can you buy it from? Amazon and Play.com both don't have it

 

[Bluejuice]

I pre-ordered mine from Game.

Should have thought ahead El Pres

I only got my Wii last Friday, bought on a whim. I only learned about Mario Kart a few days ago and I was in Asda an hour before they started selling it so I hung around as they refused to sell it to me an hour early.

I got mine from Gamestation pre-ordered, although when I wa sin Tesco at lunch time in Three Bridges they had them in stock in there and it was only £32 too.

Sold out in all shops in town yesterday. Anyone know where I can get it?

Ps - Those that have got it, some reviews please ?

It's f***ing WELL MEGA.

I've been on it all weekend. Controls are ace, tracks are ace, everything looks and feels exactly as it should.

Everyone has been itching for a go on this and I've shared the wealth with about 16 different friends over the course of the weekend, with a unanimous thumbs up from all.

CLASSIC Mario Karting action. If you have a Wii and you don't own this, you are WASTING your Wii.

Wilko, get me one if theres 2 copies in town x

currently back in B-town from uni and via town got my brother the game.

Lets just say its a MAJOR distraction to dissertation work.

Very fun game though. My brother is adamant that it's easier not using the wheel but using the controller/attachment thingy combo.

i use the wheel as its a RACING GAME and i feel i should....though i constantly get destroyed at it.

alot of new perks. example is you can race as you 'mii' character. also you can have bikes and various automobiles. on a bike you can wheely which helps in straightr lines and also you can jump in the air when doing going off a ramp, as well as doing tricks in the air.

One track has 'half-pipe' styles walls which u must jump up. all very fun.

Online play is quite good actually.

in fact i might go play now so i can assess further...

The game is tops as you might expect, but playing it online against friends is where it really excels.

The only drawback is you have no option to talk to your mates whilst playing. Nintendo have missed a trick there I think.

Or... you don't have to listen to 12 year olds or Americans constantly whining = WIN

I think it's dead good and the wheel works better than I expected.

will do mate

 

[Wardy]

Have to say that it is a really good game. The missus is out tonight so will be having another session on it then. Anyone want to add me as a friend and have a race? We could set up a NSC grand prix.

If so drop me a PM with your friend number and I will PM you back with mine when I get home.

Got a copy from Gamestation yesterday. I can see more hours of wasted fun ahead.

Marvellous.

 

[Mr deez]

It is absolutely top stuff, classic 'one more go' type game, can't put it down at the mo.

 

[Wilko]

Managed to get the last copy from argos. Lovin the bikes

 

[Mr deez]

Incidentally, I discovered today that a couple of work mates were playing the game using automatic drift - ALL WRONG.

Remember people, Manual drift is the ONLY way, else you're not playing Mario Kart.

 

[Wilko]

Automatic is WELL gay

 

[Wardy]

Manual drift makes you go faster as well.
