'''''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)|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#Wii Wheel|Wii Wheel]].
 
 
It is the first game in the ''Mario Kart'' series to allow the player to drive [[bike]]s. 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.
 
 
== Gameplay ==
 
[[File:Wii Wheel.png|right|thumb|200px|The Wii Wheel]]
 
The player can control the karts by using the [[Wii#Wii Wheel|Wii Wheel]], a container for the [[Wii#Wii Remote|Wii Remote]] which comes inside the game's box. By tilting the wheel, the player can steer. The {{button|Wii|B}} on the rear of the wheel is to use items. The game can also be controlled using the Classic Controller or the [[Nintendo GameCube|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 which have appeared in previous titles in the [[Mario Kart|''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 [[Engine Class|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.
 
 
== 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.

==Items==
 
[[File:Itembox.jpg|thumb|[[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:

===Strategic Items===
 
Strategic items are items such as the [[Mushroom]], which will assist in the race, without affecting the other racers if without effort from the racer (e.g. The mushroom can only affect another racer if the other racer is rammed with the mushroom). Such items are:
