A walkthrough of Mario Kart Wii's online multiplayer
We decided to create a gallery outlining the steps you'll go through to play the game online. Click here to get acquainted. While Europe is laughing that they already have the game, US gamers finally get their hands on Mario Kart and midnight tonight.
(Note: Due to technical difficulties, we had to physically take pictures of the game running in 480i. The quality of the images does not affect what Mario Kart Wii actually looks like.)

Question:
Is it true that I can send friend request to all my friends that I have already on my Wii Friend list?
a.j. @ Apr 26th 2008 9:59PM

Nope. Gamestop, though Wal-mart is across the street from it...
I don't know if my parents will let me go at midnight, though i'll change my name to add my MK FC.(I counted and I want 24(...288 numbers...) people to add me, you included Fernando)

Fernando Rocker, yes it is true you can send friend requests to people registered on your wii message board. The feature is in the Mari Kart Wii Channel. ^_^
Fernando Rocker @ Apr 26th 2008 10:51PM
Nice! I already have all of my SSBB and Joystiquers friends on my Wii Adress Book

I'm goin to Wal-Mart and Gamestop, they are side by side in Gainesville. If one doesn't have it I'm off to the other one.

Looks to be better than Brawl's online (gave up on trying it, may try it again sometime). Doesn't look bad for Nintendo. Nintendo: IMPROVE ONLINE!
/is suddenly craving a PS3

Wanna play?

"Grr. Darn it!" is the angriest? What if I want to show everybody how "mature" I am by using racial slurs? Or making fun of their religion, by calling them jews? Or their sexual preference by repeating the word f@g over and over again?
Come on, Nintendo, get with the times.

The damn game keeps plonking me on Germany for some reason, despite the Wii set up as English.

You go in settings and you can change your region there. I think it's something like "Name and Flag".
Poisoned Al @ Apr 27th 2008 5:09AM
Ah right, got it after a bit of digging. Thanks.
CloudANDTidus @ Apr 26th 2008 10:45PM
Important point for online, if you go to your friends list when someone is online in a public race, you can click their name to join the same race they are in. Much better than a private one on one.
CJH @ Apr 26th 2008 11:40PM
It looks like Mario Kart has a decent online system... If it's within Nintendo's means to do something like that, why was Super Smash Bros. allowed to have an poorly executed, bare-bones online component? It doesn't make any sense to me.
LAWL @ Apr 27th 2008 2:08AM
Good to see N is capable and is improving the cuality of their only attempts.
Hopefully these trend will continue,im not expecting XBL like service but atleast close,and better than the random and mediocre thing we had.
/START rant
Oooh why couldnt SSBB have a system like that or better? Or atleast DLC with it,if the wii had a HD of course.
/END rant.
KingOfGods @ Apr 27th 2008 8:06PM
I hope it works better than the online of Brawl. I still haven't been able to play an online game.
