Mario Kart Channel

The Mario Kart Channel is a feature in Mario Kart Wii that allows access to special game modes related to the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection, such as tournaments, Wi-Fi ghost races, and Friend Code Registration. The channel can be downloaded to the Wii Menu and can be accessed without having a Mario Kart game disc in your Wii. However, a disc must be inserted in order to participate in a race or tournament.
