1 day ago Every Mario Kart game, starting all the way back to the SNES version in 1992, has a new take on Rainbow Road, a course that features a cosmic theme.The version in 2008's Mario Kart Wii, however, has been particularly interesting to speedrunners for featuring a ridiculous shortcut that requires equally ridiculous skill.This morning, a speedrunner accomplished what was seen as an impossible feat.

The Nintendo Wii was a monster of a console. It is one of the biggest selling consoles of all time and while some may laugh at all the shovelware. The Nintendo Wii is home to some very good games. One of the flagship games for the console is, of course, Mario Kart Wii. Which was packaged with the Wii Wheel accesory.
Classic Mario Kart
Let’s get the basics out of the way first shall we? Mario Kart Wii features all that you would expect from a Mario Kart game. It has your Mario Kart GP’s that you can play through, time trials, VS, multiplayer, battle mode and it also had a fun online mode too. Actually, this was one of the most fun online games that the Nintendo Wii had.The game modes are perfect for a Mario Kart, but if I am being super critical. I do wish that they had put the mission mode that was in Mario Kart DS in here. That was a great mode and many felt that it would make the transition over to Mario Kart Wii.
Are Two Wheels Better Than Four?
One of the most notable things about Mario Kart Wii was that for the first time very, you could now ride on motorbikes. These actually controlled quite different from the karts so depending on your playstyle you could find them easier or harder to handle. They were a fun inclusion and something that is still part of the series to this day.
The Motion Of The Ocean
As this is a Nintendo Wii game it, of course, had to have motion controls. These actually work way better than you would think. The game when it was first released actually came with the Wii Wheel. This worked really well and for some people, this was the only way to play Mario Kart Wii. You just popped your Wii Remote in there and off you went. If you did not have the Wii Wheel you could still use the Wii Remote like one and make use of motion controls.Mario Kart Wii actually let you also use standard controls as well. I found these much better than the motion ones, but at the end of the day, it was all about personal preference. It was great how Nintendo gave you the choice of how you want to play the game.
The Gang Is All Here
Mario Kart Wii has a really stacked roster and it featured a lot of cool characters. This was the first game where people complained about the number of baby characters, but they do have some charm. Unlocking some of these characters was really tough! I remember having a tough time getting Funky Kong and baby Luigi specifically.
Blue Shell Of Death!
Mario Kart is known for its rubber banding AI. How it will punish you for doing well and how cheap the AI can sometimes be. Well, I would say that Mario Kart Wii is the worst when it comes to the AI getting an unfair advantage. In the higher CC modes in Mario Kart GP, the worst thing you can do is be in first place at the end of the first lap. You will get bombarded with Blue and Red Shells and it becomes more of a chore as you have to play as cheaply as possible to outwit the AI.
Mario Kart Wii is not one of the best games in the series. It is an awesome multiplayer game, it looks great, the motion controls work really well and there is a lot to do. However, as a single player Mario Kart game, the AI is far too cheap! Thankfully Nintendo toned this down for the sequels.
7/10

Mario Kart Wii includes 16 new courses and 16 classic courses from previous Mario Kart games. For the first time ever, players have the option of racing with either karts or motorbikes. Players can also hit the road as their personalized Mii caricatures in addition to the handful of classic Nintendo characters found in the game. True to the series, the game features tons of racing, plenty of power-ups and oodles of objects for players to use to slow down other drivers. This title can install the Mario Kart Channel on the Wii console.

Emulation Information
Controller Map Overlap
Mario Kart Wii is capable of using both GameCube controllers and Wii Remotes. If a physical controller is set to emulate both a GameCube Controller and a Wii Remote concurrently, it will operate both devices at the same time. To fix, migrate controls to use separate physical controllers.
Missing Map
If graphics settings are changed during a race, the map in the bottom right corner and Mii faces may disappear. The faces of the racers will still show up. This won't happen with EFB to Texture only disabled.

Problems
WiiConnect24 / RiiConnect24
The WiiConnect24/RiiConnect24 features of this title cannot be used because Dolphin does not currently support them. Refer issue 10200.
Wii Pinboard Pictures
To properly display images pinned to the Wii Pinboard, you must disable the hack Store XFB Copies to Texture Only before the image is created.
Lens Flare Effect
For the lens flare effect to be emulated when looking towards the sun, Store EFB Copies to Texture Only must be disabled.
Mario Kart Vehicles Wii
PAL 50 Flickering
This game does some weird depth based effect when rendering at PAL50. D3D11/12 do not handle this effect correctly. To fix, use OpenGL or enable PAL60.
Translucent Blue Rectangle
If Disable Fog is disabled and Ignore Format Changes is enabled, a translucent blue rectangle will be present on the screen. If Ignore Format Changes is disabled, the translucent blue rectangle will no longer appear. Ignore Format Changes is now disabled by default.
Vulkan Backend Issues
When using the Vulkan backend the Wii Remote warning may render incorrectly and a frosted box appears in the upper left corner of races. Refer issue 9890. This seemed to duplicate the Translucent Blue Rectangle problem corrected by disabling Ignore Format Changes.
Channel Installation Functionality
The Mario Kart Channel is not installed properly, even though the game indicates the install completed successfully. Partly fixed by 5.0-1837, which added initial title import support, but breaks the NAND when actually installing the channel. 5.0-2706 fixes the issue.
Enhancements
Anisotropic Filtering Problems
The red and green glow on the conveyor belts in the Toad's Factory track (maybe other effects too) breaks if anisotropic filtering is used.
Same Racer FOV on Video Preference
When using 16:9 mode, the FOV pointer address is adjusted to a lower angle than the 4:3 mode when the race starts. The Gecko code maintains the FOV to have the same height on both screen modes.
NTSC-U
HD Texture Pack
4xIR Bloom Fix
Bloom effects render incorrectly with IR>1. This gecko code will scale bloom effects for up to IRx4.
Configuration
Only configuration options for the best compatibility where they deviate from defaults are listed.

HOWEVER, Time Trial feature will not replay ghosts that are ported from a Wii Save. As a result, racing/learning World/Regional Record ghost lines/times is not possible. For debugging information, there is one course that seems to be fully functional which is SNES Mario Circuit 3, hope this helps?

| 3.0-235 | Windows 7 | Intel Core i7-2630QM | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460M | Unplayable: 10-15FPS; 30% game speed. I have tried close to every combination of settings with no luck. EDIT: Searching for ways to improve my emulation speed, I found that overclocking my GPU did the job. I now get 40-60FPS at 70-100% GameSpeed in menus, and a constant 60FPS and 100% GameSpeed during a race. | |
| 3.0-373 | Mac OS X 10.7.2 | Intel Core i7-2675QM @ 2.2GHz | AMD Radeon HD 6750M | Perfect, full speed 60FPS. Slight crackling in screen transitions. | jedivulcan |

| 3.0-578 | Windows 7 | Intel Core i7-2630QM | AMD Radeon HD 6770M | 50% with suggested settings, 100% with EFB copies set to Texture. 2-Player gets about 60% with EFB Texture and 50% with EFB RAM. | |
| 3.0-586 | Windows 7 | Intel Core i7-920 @ 2.66GHz | NVIDIA GeForce 560 Ti | With all suggested setting I was getting 35-45FPS avg, I then Overclocked my CPU from 2660MHz to 2760MHz (small amount I know) I'm now getting the full 60-70FPS. When overclocked to 3000MHz was getting 75-86FPS. So make sure your CPU is at a decent speed as a little extra MHz can make a large difference. N.B. Overclocking the GPU seemed to have no effect for me. | Anon |
| 3.0-684 | Windows 7 | AMD FX-4100 @ 4.5GHz | NVIDIA GeForce GTS 250 | Tested with (DX9). Unfortunately this is not fantastic game with Constant Spielgeschwindkeit which videos are often slow in the game when many drivers are on the screen to go the 50FPS lost, so usually then to 40FPS. with 2-player mode, the emulation is usually to 30-40FPS. I think the best option Emulationsgeschwindkeit 'EFB Copies' on TEXTURE would provide, as well as providing the 'internal resolution' at quite low. To criticize is that sometimes not all the graphics loaded, even 'Choose Profile' at, and even 'select vehicle' at. (sic, Google Translate) | Serverbot777 |

| 4.0-3638 | Windows 8.1 | AMD A10-5800K @ 4.2GHz | AMD Radeon HD 7660D | Good: Frames may drop in races against CPU. Solo time trials work fine at constant 60FPS. Menus with video playback may cause slowdowns. OpenGL seems to run slower, especially in menus. Audio distortion in races against CPU. Everything tested with stock settings, so tweaking may result in better performance. The APU's GPU has been clocked to 1086 MHz, RAM to 933 Mhz. | RVNX |
| 4.0-4149 | Windows 8.1 | Intel Core i5-4200U @ 1.6GHz | NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M | Very playable, though slowdowns in menus with stage previews, the game lags big time when the camera turns at the start of a race (not after that, though), and the audio will crack a lot if <60FPS. Using OpenGL with 16x Anisotropic Filtering and 2x native resolution (1920x1080 fullscreen resolution). Direct3D proves to be much slower than OpenGL. | Yoshi2889 |
| 4.0-4149 | Windows 8.1 | AMD Athlon X4 860K @ 4.2GHz | AMD R9 280 | Very good, 60FPS constantly. Minor drops in frames while being attacked during races, resolution is 1920x1080 with anti-aliasing 9X. | Gamerphon |

| 4.0-4808 | Windows 8.1 | AMD FX 8150 @ 4.13GHz | Dual AMD 5770 | Nearly perfect for playing, 100% speed during races, and 45-55FPS in Menus. Tested using single player! More players may impact your experience. Internal Resolution: 3x Native, Anisotropic Filtering: 4x, Fullscreen Resolution: 1920x1080. Using Direct3D and XAudio2 for backend | Candunc |
| 5.0-rc-33 | Mac OS X 10.10.3 | Intel Core i5 @ 3.3GHz | Intel Iris | Pretty Good. A few lag spikes here and there, mostly during menus and the level browsing before a game. I've only tried single player. I use 1x Native, no anti-aliasing, 1x Filtering, scaled EFB copy and EFB to Texture only, mostly to save battery power. | |
| 5.0-rc-35 | Windows 7 | Intel Core i7-960 @ 3.2GHz | AMD Radeon HD 5800 | Near flawless emulation, with only a few minor slowdowns here and there (and even then, it's only on menus, and when the Lightning item is used). I have played both the regular courses and the battle courses thoroughly. | UmbraWitchJeanne |

| 5.0 | Windows 10 | Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 @ 2.4GHz | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 550 Ti | Plays smoothly during race at 60 FPS with minor stutters, however it lags terribly during menus (especially during course selection) and beginning of the race (sometimes). | |
| 5.0 | Windows 10 | Intel Core i5-6500 @ 3.2GHz | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 | Plays near flawlessly at 3x the native resolution, 60fps. Occasional stutter during map previews but that is only a minor issue that doesn't affect playability. | Daniel L. |
| 5.0-2668 | Windows 10 | Intel Core i5-4460 @ 3.2GHz | AMD Radeon R9 290 | Plays smoothly, does sometimes stutter in the transition to the next menu. Stutters at the begin of the race. | daborbor |
| 5.0-4732 | Windows 7 | Intel Core i3-3240 @ 3.4GHz | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960 | No issues while playing, buttery smooth 60fps, a brief stutter when lap ends and the scoreboard shows, occasional stutter in menus. | Janek40 |
