A tiny screen from Mario Kart on the Nintendo Wii unveils up to eight players battles in one of the ten announced arenas. This balloon mode should also allow teams to compete against each other. The release date is set to April 11th of 2008 in Europe.
Loakum @Driftwood Awesome! I’m loving it! It does show a much crisper picture and the frame rate looks good! I was playing Stella Blade and Dragonball Soarkling Blast! :) (4 Days ago)

Its all just awesome...
no doubt it will play well though (although double dash was a real let down...so I hope they fix the issues with that)
The DS does better graphics than that.
The less details, the more focus on the battle and the fun. My all time favourite battle mode for home console versions is the one in Super Mario Kart (the one in Mario Kart DS was very good as well).
The most important thing in this news is not the screenshot, it's: 8 players battle and team battle, which is a big first in the series.
You will not be looking at the backgrounds while trying to hit someone with a green turtle shell when SEVEN other players will try to do the same to you.
There could be a reason why the stage is the way it is as other screens have showed 3d track environments. Couldn't it be the stage looks the way it does intentionally and is just a part of the track theme?
On top of the weak image, this stage inparticular looks so bad because it's a remake of a classic SNES stage. It's SUPPOSED to look old school, it's the theme of the level. This is a far better example. http://uk.wii.ign.com/dor/mario-kart-wii/949580/im...
C'mon guys, at least do some research before mindlessly bashing a game.
The ignorance in this thread is astounding.
What you're saying is basically the equivalent of making fun of the graphics in MGS3 based on the original Metal Gear that was given away with it as a bonus. "LOL, it looks like a NES game!" Yeah.. Missed the point much?

but I would expect something a little more like this in 2008.
