I am so angry with Ninty, I just, I just..I just may write them an angry letter!

How dare they advertise the Wii as this lounge room friendly, invite yr neighbour over party monster console and then take away THE best thing about MK, namely local multiplayer!!!

For Donkey's sake, I don't wanna play with strangers over the net. I want my stinky mates beside me on a ratty old couch so I can laugh at them as I get that umpteenth golden boost; I wanna see them fling down the controller in disgust as they get whacked with a red shell right before they are about to win!!

Ninty, you have royally fucked up. The Kart is not a game to be messed with... Mad

You a dumbass or just ignorant? Of course Mario Kart Wii has local multiplayer.

Nintendo isnt THAT dumb. They wouldnt sell a single copy if they removed multi.

I read this in a review and it seems to indicate that local m/p is gone, but perhaps not upon closer reading......still, you don't have to be so insulting like some twit 10 y.o.

Local MP isnt gone, but from what I heard, they made some pretty silly decisions about it. I dont remember exactly what was said though.

I looked it up. Local MP sucks because the tracks are just too big, the game is designed around a twelve person race, so if you turn off AI the track or baloon battle or whatever is pretty much empty.

Well, at least there is split screen. I was pretty worried there for a bit.
So, hopefully with 4 friends it'll be ok. Thanx WW
