Let's not bandy about here, we're pretty much God's gift to green shell snipes, and hook us up with a few red shells and perhaps a banana or two and you can pretty much kiss your Flower Cup goodbye. Nintendo just announced some extensive online functionality for its upcoming Wii-based Mario Kart title, including an undisclosed amount of "more" online competitors, which is always a plus. Nintendo is also packing a free Wii Wheel with each copy of the game to help ease the newbs into the Kart action. No word on how much the new wheel will cost on its own, but we'll be seeing both it and Mario Kart in the first quarter of 2008.

They should have just called it the "Wiill" (pronounced the same as wheel, makes more sense to me)

Is the steering wheel that comes with mario kart a whole new controller? Or is it something you put you're wiimote into(like the sports accessories)? From the picture it looks like a whole new controller, though I thought it was otherwise....

Im pretty sure you put the controller in the wheel, in that picture he was showing the backside of it where theres another button
