zerologic Posted February 22, 2008 Report Share Posted February 22, 2008 Says so on Play where i just ordered my copy from [ QUOTE ] Mario Kart Wii comes bundled with a new and intuitive accessory - the Wii Wheel, which makes it one of the most accessible Mario Kart games to date and allows complete novices to compete with ease and comfort, ensuring no one is left in the dust. For those more familiar to Mario Kart and who are now afraid of getting smoked by their newcomer grandparents using the Wii Wheel, rest assured, Nintendo has you covered! Mario Kart Wii supports five different control options: Wii Wheel, Wii Remote turned on its side, Wii Remote and Nunchuk combination, Classic Controller and even Nintendo GameCube controller. So there's bound to be a configuration that fits everyone's experience, level and style. [/ QUOTE ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zerologic Posted February 23, 2008 Report Share Posted February 23, 2008 From CarMads Link.. [ QUOTE ] The launch will also see the arrival of the Mario Kart channel to the Wii Home Page, enabling players to compare scores (such as best lap times) and check their online ranking against friends.

[/ QUOTE ] shao_khan - I think your wii number is wrong in the sticky in the games room mate. I tried adding it the other day and wouldn't work. The others did so hopefully we can get some online games going Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shao_khan Posted February 23, 2008 Report Share Posted February 23, 2008 OK, I'll check - Nick mentioned this the other week and I thought it looked right..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zerologic Posted April 8, 2008 Report Share Posted April 8, 2008 I pre-ordered this ages ago on Play.com and have just got an email saying that Nintendo are limiting the release so they won't have stock to fulfill my order on release date and they don't know when they will get more in! So much for pre-ordering!! Why do Nintendo do this with all things Wii related, Hype it up then fail to deliver the stock needed to meet the demand!

Dave Posted April 8, 2008 Report Share Posted April 8, 2008 I got the same mate... bummer.. They didn't actually say whether or not I would get one, just that they had limited stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burble Posted April 8, 2008 Report Share Posted April 8, 2008 I got the same email. Bugger I was really looking forward to getting hold of this, being laid up with a broken leg I've been using the Wii a fair bit and was looking forward to getting a shiny new game. Oh well, I'll ask my parents to bring my Xbox 360 over from my house and I'll play some Guitar Hero III instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidicks Posted April 8, 2008 Report Share Posted April 8, 2008 I got the same mate... bummer.. They didn't actually say whether or not I would get one, just that they had limited stock. Same for me! :-( Sidicks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pincher Posted April 8, 2008 Report Share Posted April 8, 2008 Game seem to think that I will be getting mine on time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarMad Posted April 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2008 Yep same e-mail for me from play, which is more than a little bit disappointing as I got the ordering a fair while ago. You couldn't pre-order it much before that from memory. Fingers crossed it comes on time, think its going to be a bit of a hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pincher Posted April 9, 2008 Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 Not wishing to rub it in but I got an email from Game today with my Tracking Number - just been on to the Royal Mail website and they are predicting a delivery before the guaranteed time tomorrow! Obviously, I'll let you know how good it is after a few hours play:p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarMad Posted April 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 I can go off people really quickly you know. Hope it arrives on time and you can write a full essay style review for getting if first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pincher Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 Arrived at 7.50 this morning - full review to come later on (once I have managed to get the wheel off Tom!) First impressions are that it is much harder than the DS version Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
