Mario Kart should NOT have Motion Control Steering.

After playing Excite Truck I really hope that Nintendo does NOT make Mario Kart for the Wii with Motion Control steering.

It is a really crappy way to steer and gives you no feeling. The motion control works great for Wii sports and Raymond, Wario and Zelda but please Nintendo stay away from it with the steering for Mario Kart. Maybe use it for using items only.

i agree that the motion control steering like in excite truck should not be used in mario kart, however, i think it worked in excite truck becuase of what they were trying to do with that game.

What if you had a steering wheel attachment like this one http://wiimedia.ign.com/wii/image/article/731/731777/gt-pro-series-20060908114711546.jpg ? And of course the wiimote goes in the open space. And I think that nintendo should include something like this if they release a Mario Kart for the wii just like other racing games have done.

Then it should have SSX/Need For Speed Carbon Controls right?!?! Woohoo!!!BaconBallz1337

Wow, I can understand motion-sensing being a tad imprecise at times, but a lot of time, it's what gives wii racing games, particulary excite truck, it's own flavour and enjoyment. Yes there's a learning curve, but the controls DO work.

The only game motion-sensing doesn't work on would be Brawl. But every other Nintendo game could incoporate motion-sensing with proper justice.

I like how people complain about Nintendo not wanting to put motion control in Brawl, that's what the direcor hinted at, yet it is people, not Nintendo, that does not want it in Mario Kart Wii. 

The controls will work great for Mario Kart Wii.  Just like most peoples arguments about it being stupid not putting motion sensing in Brawl, which I disagree, it would be stupid to not put motion controls in Mario Kart Wii.  I don't think so for Brawl cause to much is going on.  They can make it optional for the people that don't like change, as long as they don't skimp out on it.

Steering - nunchuck joystick

Accelerate - A

Brake - down on control pad

Drift - nunchuck Z

Aim for items - pointer

Use items - B

i think that would be a good control scheme. who agrees?

I think the controlls for Excite Truck are awsome but Mario Kart deffintly needs something else...

If possible I would like the motion senssing but due to a higher amount of needed buttons (or wii-movements) just the remote would limit the game.

So ya... Stear nunchunk and aim wii-mote sounds good... to bad it sounds like a shooter though.

i want a nunchuck and a Wiimote combo for mario kart, it just feels more right, but steering won't be that bad IMO, i played sonic and the secret rings and while the gameplay mechanics were a bit broken (the 1 button never stops on time, making a backwards motion too much will ultimately lead for him to forward again, no control over his speed which results a REALLY slow start etc.), but the steering motion was percise, i felt like i was in complete control over the game and i wouldn't be disappointed if mario plays out that way.nintendo-4life

if you didn't want motion sensing then why did you buy the wii?

Agreed. I think the Excite Truck type steering for Mario Kart would be perfect:?

First, I think Excite Truck controls excellently. Second, if a game really is incompatible with motion control, even Mario Kart, then Nintendo shouldn't make it for the Wii.

My bad - spelt it wrong, but come on you know what Ii meant.JarrodTagni

I like the idea of using the steering wheel attachment thing.sentay0

its rayman not raymond!!!:twisted:NHLMightyDucks

I completely disagree with you. I think the controls for excite truck were really fun. I would be disappointed if the wii didn't include the motion controls for super mario cart.

imho I have felt that if anything the wii controls are too acurate. I prefer them over a d- pad anyday.

However, It would be nice it if they would allow you the option to choose the d-pad controler over the wiimote. It is always nice to have options.
