Ok , I know the official launch date isn't until tomorrow but i got mine today ( i pre-ordered it on the Game Website) and just wondered what you all think of it ? The steering wheel is so diddy yet easy and comfortable to use (although i kept forgetting to move it ... D'oh! ) . The graphics , i think , are brilliant . Not played it for too long but the first impression is a good one . From what i can see , there are new tracks as well as old ones from the SNES , N64 and DS versions .

I'm one happy bunny

The SNES version is a landmark in my childhood!!

Making a fort out of tables, chairs and blankets?

well your guess was rather pants

not made a fort in many a year! lol x

Yeah, but how ace are forts? last time I made one it was in a 24hr tesco with the boxes at the emd of the till!

But anyway, my mates off to buy it at lunch so hopefully will go down and see him tomorrow!

Yip.......

Used to love the SNES version!! Played it to death in my childhood with Andy and his brother.

Funnily enough the SNES was actually supposed to be his sisters, but we probably spent more time on it than her.


Oh...... and we also built forts!

This is so true, I have the SNEW with me now, its gone a bit green in colour but still works!

Got it today, really good game. And for that extra ego boost, I like the way it puts your Mii in at the end next to Mario and Peach

Haven't tried the online play yet, but there must be scope for a TOC session or two at some point.
