Nintendo fanboys rejoice! Mario Kart Wii will launch in the United States on April 27. The game comes with the Wii Wheel, which apparently makes it easy for novices to compete against veterans.

Mario Kart Wii also features online multiplayer through the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection where you can compete with up to 11 other drivers from around the world.

Mario Kart Wii will include 16 new courses and 16 classic courses from previous Mario Kart games. For the first time ever, players have the option of racing with either karts or motorbikes. Players can also race as their Mii character in addition to the handful of classic Nintendo characters.

Mario Kart Wii supports four different control options: Wii Remote with or without the Wii Wheel, Wii Remote and Nunchuk controller combo, Classic Controller and even the Nintendo GameCube controller.

Mario Kart Wii launches with a new channel added to the Wii Menu to enhance game play: The Mario Kart Wii Channel. This new channel builds on the huge online community of Wii owners and lets players compete in tournaments, check worldwide rankings, see when their friends are playing and download ghost data. Nintendo fanboys rejoice as Nintendo has announced the release date for the highly anticipated Mario Kart Wii.
