Picked up a brand new out of the box shinny "backup" of Mario Kart for the Wii yesterday. Kids have been hammering the same Mario Kart on the DS and love it, but this, it takes the Wii onto another level. Kids love the Wii version although it's still early days, I reckon this will be the game of the year for the Wii. If you do have a spare ?40 and your Wii isn't chipped, this is a good investment - even more if you have kids !!!

Just an added bit for this, went back on last night an used the WiFi option, makes this game even more worth the money (which sounds a bit two faced as I haven't bought it, but hey) anyway you have the option to play just you against upto 11 others from around the World (brings their Mii's onto the screen with there nick names, nothing more than that so don't worry about kids going on there.) You also have the option of you and a mate (2 players) taking the same option and both playing against the rest of the world. You can see you world ranking at any point, I'm still like Luxonburg - nil pra.

Long way to go on this game but so far it's a cracker !!

Hiya Nota, I had a similar message about updating from the disk and I took chance and updated. I didn't though get the same message you have and mine is working fine (the wii that is). I was advised by the lad who chipped it to never update from the disk, only from Nintendoooos site themselves, incase of the problems you have. Is the copy you have hold of a PAL or a NTSC, I've had a couple of NTSC by accident and had problems with them. Mainly they come up with the cover screen but then the wii goes black and I have to reset it. Have you tried the nintendooo for the latest update ?
