This game is absolutely terrible. The graphics look like pre-N64 games. It's sad because the concept behind the title could really be inventive. The gameplay is boring, and the graphics stink. Stay far away from this one
Ugh, this game could have been so much better.

First off I really liked the idea of this game when I saw it on the shelf at my local store. I put it on my wishlist for Xmas and received it as a gift. Now I feel bad for the person who bought it for me because I have played it once and don't think I ever will again.
First problem with the game is the controls. In the typical driving games you need to hold the Wii-mote by each end and turn it left/right like a wheel. This game requires that you hold it normally and point it at the screen. Turning requires you to roll your wrist left and right to make the car turn. Not accurate and not intuitive. They should have made the controls require the Wii steering wheel OR to make then the same as the cow racing game in Wii Play.
Second problem is with the camera angle. I understand that the bird's eye view is cool so that you can see your little Mini racing on the desktop around erasers and coffe cups, but it makes it near impossible to anticipate the obstacles you are about to encounter.
I am disappointed. I hope that there are other racing games for the Wii that can capture the playful spirit Nintendo and the Wii aimed for Mini Desktop Racing, while actually being fun to play. This game is a failure.
Wow is right

This could quite possibly get the nod for the worst video game of all time. I've been an avid gamer since Pong so I've seen some god-awful games in my time. To imagine a game that not only looks this bad considering it's on the Wii, but is also terrible in the game play avenue as well. I must say... I'm not even mad, in fact, I'm kind of impressed.
Thank heavens I now have a coaster for my drink!!!

Please listen to the other reviews. I love the Wii and I love racing games, but this is not the game you are looking for. Go and buy Mario Cart. I've had more fun clipping my fingernails than playing this game. The only thing this game is good for is to use the disc as a coaster for my drinking glass.
