Wii Menu 4.0 - finally SD!!

If you updated your Wii system anytime in the last week - you'll notice you've got a new SD icon at the bottom of your screen.

Yup your SD card slot is now actually useful.

You can move and copy games/saved games to and from the SD card now. You can also run wiiware games right from the card.

Makes sense and seems kinda obvious - don't know why we couldn't do that from day one.

NASCAR Kart Racing for the Wii SUCKS. Stick with Mario Kart

We rented NASCAR Kart Racing this week and long story short is the game SUCKS.

Their is no motion control feeback in the wiimote (running through the wii-wheel). The basic tracks are lame and the drivers have no personalities of their own. To make matters worse there was no way we could figure to just play two player - you always have to select a teammate - so a two player is really a four car race.

The power up are lame too.

Overall a total disappointment. Don't buy this game - Mario Kart is superior in every way.
