Mario Kart coming to Wii VC
The original, legendary Super Mario Kart is coming to Wii on 2nd April 2010, available exclusively on the Wii Shop Channel!
Consistently regarded by many as one of the best video games ever made, Super Mario Kart on SNES was originally released seventeen years ago and has spawned five sequels.
Burn rubber across 20 tracks rendered in fluid Mode 7 graphics, including many courses so enjoyable and beloved that they are still featured in Mario Kart Wii and Mario Kart DS today. Take on the original Ghost Valley, Bowser Castle, Koopa Beach and the infamously challenging Rainbow Road…
For 800 Wii Points you can go head-to-head with your friends in split-screen, enjoy the multiplayer favourite – Battle Mode or go solo racing against an all-star line-up of Mushroom Kingdom characters.
And it wouldn’t be Super Mario Kart without the sublime controls; power slides are super-precise and outmanoeuvring your opponents is still as fun now as it ever was. The only question left is: do you have the skill to dodge a red shell?
I read this yesterday and thought why wasn’t this released sooner but I wonder will it be as popular, great games don’t always have the same appeal second time around, I’m more interested in ModNation at the moment, retro is fun for a while but the brain needs new stuff
