Mario Kart 64 hits US Wii too

US Wii owners will be able to download the classic N64 racer Mario Kart 64 from the US Virtual Console this morning, joining the Europeans who got the game in their Wii Shop last Friday.

CVG has already reviewed the UK version, which received a number of performance tweaks for the Wii with the removal of the ugly PAL borders being the main improvement. That won't be a problem for the US however, where the original NTSC N64 game ran full screen and full speed.

Mario Kart 64 costs 1000 Wii Points which is $10 for you lucky US residents, and around £7.50 for rip-off UK.
