MK wiki icon

Template:Game infobox Mario Kart Wii (Japanese: マリオカートWii Mariokāto u~ī) (マリオカートWii Mario Kāto Wī) (often abbreviated to MKWii) is the sixth installment in the Mario Kart series. It was released for the Wii and is the first and only Mario Kart installment for the Wii and also comes packaged with the Wii Wheel.

It is the first game in the Mario Kart series to allow the player to drive bikes. The game allows up to four players split-screen and allowed up to twelve player online matches using Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection. Included in the game is a channel for the Wii Menu called the Mario Kart Channel where a player can compare their scores with other players online. Every character has over 3,000 voices.

Gameplay

Wii Wheel

The Wii Wheel.

The player can control the karts by using the Wii Wheel, a container for the Wii Remote which comes inside the game's box. By tilting the wheel, the player can steer. The B Button on the rear of the wheel is to use items. The game can also be controlled using the Classic Controller or the GameCube Controller.

As in previous games, the player can participate in a Grand Prix, each containing four tracks in which points are gained for the player's position at the end of the race. The player must come within the top three players at the end of the Grand Prix to win a trophy.

There are 32 tracks in Mario Kart Wii. There are four sets of 'new' tracks, along with four sets of tracks that have appeared in previous titles in the Mario Kart series. Each set contains four tracks, and can be played entirely in Grand Prix mode.

A new addition to the series is motorbikes. In 100cc and 150cc, the player can participate using motorbikes. There are specific vehicles for each character. Some characters wear different costumes when driving different vehicles.

The game supports up to four players in offline multiplayer and supported up to twelve players online using Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection. Offline multiplayer includes Vs. and Battle modes, as in Mario Kart DS. In Vs. players can play against each other or in a team. In Battle Mode, the players must play in teams. It isn't possible to unlock trophies or any other awards in multiplayer mode. All characters have over 3,000 voice clips.

Characters

There are 24 playable characters in the game. 12 characters can be played from the start. An extra 12 can be unlocked through the single-player mode. The player can also play as their Mii, the first game in the series which uses this feature. Miis also have a different outfit if unlocked, the male ones having overalls like Mario and the female ones having a Peach dress, with their exclusive color.

Items

File:Itembox.jpg

Item Box.

Items play a fundamental part in Mario Kart Wii. Items are received through item boxes, which are sparkly and have a question mark on them are usually scattered in groups throughout a course, often in a horizontal line. The item is then stored for use whenever the racer wishes (except in the case of the Thunder Cloud, which is immediately activated). Items can be split into two categories, aggressive items, and strategic items. Normally, the lower the player's position in the race, the rarer and more useful items they will receive from item boxes to help balance the gameplay.

Aggressive Items

Aggressive items are any items that will affect other players in a way that another racer's vision is blocked, stops, or loses speed, such as the red shell. The aggressive items are:
