I went into my local game shop picked up my copy of Mario Kart DS, didn't think much of it, I just loved the old 64 version. With it I picked up this lil Wi-Fi USB gizmo. The installation was easy enough, just download some software from their website, but thats beside the point. Ever since I shoved the game into my DS i've been hooked. Whipping it out at every occasion I can just trying to beat all them tough 150cc races, trying to unlock everything, beating people online, the entertaining factor of this game in phenominal!

With wifi connectivity, full 3D, 32 tracks, single cartridge wireless multiplayer modes and a full online ranking system, Mario Kart DS sets a new standard for handheld console games. Expect some funky stuff in the future.

The possibilities this game has opened are endless (well, near endless). Own a DS? Then Mario Kart DS i a unquestionable must.
