Mario Kart: Four wheels good, two wheels better
The word on the street at CVG is that bikes are the way forward when it comes to Mario Kart Wii. Head online, and the vast majority of fastest times are held by bikes, while their superior turning and all-round nippiness mean they often trump karts in multiplayer sessions. The boost gained from performing wheelies down straight sections of track is earmarked as one of the biggest culprits.
So dominant are these "two-wheeled spawns of the devil" that the CVG staffers are now contemplating banning the things. It disappoints us to think that such a finely balanced formula has been upset by the inclusion of bikes; any European owners/importers wish to comment?
