PPP1 Research: Mario Kart Wii

Another one of my favourite games for the Nintendo Wii, is Mario Kart. As an owner of the original Mario Kart: Double Dash for GameCube, I was very excited to get this game as it offered both old and new race tracks and also new characters from the newer generation of Mario. In the older Double Dash game the graphics are very similar to that of the newer one which is actually quite a surprise as the newer one was produced a few years later and should have a lot of improvements.

As a fan of the older game it was wonderful to get stuck into playing this newer one as if offered not only older tracks from the Double Dash game but also new ones that came with Mario Kart Wii that were amazing to drive through.The general gameplay going round the different tracks is amazing and the cars are all easy to drive and it is very clear where you have to go as all of the levels are wonderfully bright and colourful and keep with the original style of Nintendo games.

The other good things about this game for one is the music. It is amazing and is perfect for the game. The music combines a mixture of older Nintendo tunes mixed with newer ones created for this game which all work well with the older ones and the noise of the cars going around the track. The other thing I love about this game is the mini character creation menu in which you are able to pick your character and then also customised your car, a feature not used in many racing games.
