Hey everyone, there will be several Mario Kart Wii events across the U.S. in the upcoming weeks. Mario and his racing buddies will take a trip into the heart of Texas with scheduled stops in Dallas (April 24) and Houston (April 26).

Nintendo will celebrate the official launch of Mario Kart Wii and the companion Wii Wheel accessory with a fun-packed extravaganza in NYC April 26 at the Nintendo World store in Rockefeller Plaza from 2-6 pm.

For all events, drivers of all ages will be able to get a sneak peek at the game and wrap their fingers around the Wii Wheel, a wireless steering accessory. Also, everyone will be invited to take part in a Mario Kart Wii competition for the chance to win prizes and Nintendo-themed giveaways including personalized Mario Kart driver’s licenses. For the first time ever, the Mario Kart series will let players control their vehicle with a simple turn of the Wii Wheel. All new courses, vehicles, eye-popping battle arenas, and the ability to compete online with Nintendo’s Wi-Fi Connection awaits Wii players.

After the Launch Party, Mario and his buddies will road trip again, making stops in Chicago, Washington D.C., Philadelphia, Boston and New Jersey schooling family and friends in the art of Kart.
