Are you kidding me? Double Dash pales in comparison to Wii. The only benefit is the two people in the cart but the advanced stages, added gameplay elements and superior graphics more than make up for that.
lol they are pretty much the same game, except the for the motion controls on the Wii. But the stages are pretty much the same. I prefer Mario Kart 64 to both of those games.
The only thing that made me play the Wii version is the Online mode. Otherwise, Double Dash is far better than Wii.
Wii version is so slow and the controles are sick. What I really don't get is, what did the programmers think about when the programmed the car movements?
The steering is so bad, the speed drops to almost zero when you hit the side walls, and many other stuff. I've got to admit the game is very nice with a damn good grafics. But DD is better.
Although Double Dash!! tried to mix it up with some "two people-one kart:" action, it doesn't really add much. The Wii version has superior controls, graphics, stages, and adds a great online mode.
Mario Kart Wii. More tracks, online modes and bikes and karts with more stats than the usual acceleration and speed which were the only two stats used before Mario Kart Ds.
Double Dash is a far better game. Playing MKWii was like taking a giant step backward but I know most don't agree. People have some sort of vendetta against Double Dash but it's the most deep and rewarding of all the Mario Karts. The only thing MKWii has over DD is online play and my favorite MK level of all time, Maple Treeway. MKWii is still good but it's not the best Mario Kart and it's not as good as DD.
I think every installment has been an improvement over the one before it, so MK Wii is my favorite so far. I really should get around to finishing my blog series on this....
Double Dash = Amazing. Many place changes, tons of weapon usage, and tight nail biter races.
MK Wii = Boring. The item system doesn't keep races tight like it used to. First place can often hold leads for very long periods. Generally alot more spread out racers. (Even more apparent with smaller # of players)

maybe as far as console versions go... but the transition from DS to Wii was VERY drastic, which was about 99% of why i scored MKWii so low, MKDS was darn near flawless, it was an improvement in every aspect of mario kart, i dont know WHAT nintendo was thinking when they released this rubbish
Mario Kart Wii is best, then Double Dash, then Mario Kart DS
I found Mario Kart DS hurt my hands after awhile. The wii controller is the most comfortable so that's why I go with MK Wii. I don't want arthritis at 16.
Mario Kart wii is better but the only bad things are that they took out the blinking when you get hit by an item so at times makes the game annoying to play online and also on the pushing sort of bothered me that like bowser can send you flying to the other side of the track.
MArio KArt Wii is 5 times better than double dash . Wii has double the stages. way more unlockable characters, and karts, and good on-line double dash does not stand a chance against mario kart wii.

So you're saying that spiny shells are good? Seriously people, make up your damn minds!
And I agree with most. MK Wii is superior to Double Dash but inferior to DS.
