Mario Kart 8 will be released for Wii U very soon, but even as we look forward to that we still love Mario Kart Wii. There will be a huge difference between the two games though, and Wes from Family Gamer TV has made a cool video showing the difference between the old Wii game and the brand new Mario Kart 8 on Wii U.

The video compares the differences between Moo Moo Meadows on both Mario Kart Wii and Mario Kart 8, and Wes talks about the new innovations in level design and kart customisation, how the gamepad is integrated, and showcasing the graphical differences between the two versions.

The most popular Mario Kart game was the Wii version of the game, selling a staggering 35 million copies! With Mario Kart 8, Nintendo will be counting on those fans of the game to move over to the Wii U, but is it worth the upgrade? Family Gamer TV certainly think so. They think it’s the best Mario Kart ever made!

Will you be picking up Mario Kart 8 when it releases on May 30th?
