SNES: Excellent game but then it was the first. Jacq and I played battle many times, I concentrated on times. Fully completed.
N64: Loved it. The karts felt right - there was traction. It felt like the karts were on a surface. Mix that with tracks where steering carefully was rewarded and the gaming result was excellent.
GC: Double Dash. The karts floated above the surface, no traction, no feel. Started the move to a more multiplayer setup and the game suffered because of it. Track design was in parts pretty good.
Wii: Played and got a few 50cc Golds when it arrived yesterday. Have since watched the girls play singly, together and on the WFC. P is particularly good (she has around 6000pts) Uses the wheel well, uses weapons well, does tricks.
So I sit and we play a few tracks. This was at 100cc. Dire. No feel, none. BIG WIDE TRACKS because they want lots of people to play online. No skill whatsoever with powersliding. Even more “if you are at the front you will be hit by blue shellls and at the front it’s yellow bananas for you” - very predictable this time. It’s less skill and more of an unpredictable fight. Which is a shame, but then Nintendo do want take up of their console and this cannot fail to shift units. Not impressed to play, love watching P.

Damn, was looking forward to this game too… Will be trading in Zelda, finished that in a couple of weeks.
Like I know games :)
My girls love it. I might give it a go with a GC controller yet. I think it’s me wanting better than the N64 version and being disappointed because what I wanted was not there.
I like it. Wasnt sure at first, but the wheel controller grows on you quite quickly, the single player isnt the best version of MK by far, but online is just excellent. If Nintendo can come up with more games with online play as good as this, the wii may become a serious contender to the other 2 consoles
P has a full set of golds, has an online score of about 7000. I know it can be done and I’ve watched it.
But when I put it on 50cc and do a cup with all tracks I know…… I turn right, it goes left. Not all the time but once is bad enough.
I quit playing Mario Galaxy after blogging what I thought and I just quit MK Wii. I am thankful I had not bought Galaxy Wars.
It’s awesome for many but it’s just screwed here.
