Mario Kart Wii

Mario Kart Wii is a racing game developed by Nintendo Entertainment Analysis and Development and published by Nintendo for the Wii console. It is the sixth installment in the Mario Kart series (excluding the two arcade games) and the second Mario Kart title to use the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection. The game was released worldwide throughout April 2008, but one year later in South Korea. Every copy of the game is packaged with the Wii Wheel accessory, which is designed to house the Wii Remote to allow more intuitive and conventional steering.

Changes from its predecessor, Mario Kart DS, include motorbikes and support for up to twelve racers online. Like other games in the Mario Kart series, it involves various characters from several Mario games racing each other on tracks themed from locations in the Mario series.

Mario Kart Wii was first shown at E3 2007. It has been positively received by critics; while not revolutionary, the online capability and the large number of tracks, characters and karts has been praised. The game had a commercially successful launch in every region, and sold over a million copies in both Japan and the United States in less than a month.

Mii's Faces
Mii faces may disappear if graphics settings are adjusted during gameplay, a savestate is loaded or if entering/exiting exclusive fullscreen (not borderless fullscreen) during a race. If the faces disappear, they will return in the next race. To prevent this, disable EFB Copies to Texture Only. See.

Missing Map
If changing graphics settings during a race, the map in the bottom right corner may disappear. The faces of the racers will still show up.

PAL 50 Flickering
This game does some weird depth based effect when rendering at PAL50. D3D11/12 do not handle this effect correctly. To fix, use OpenGL OR enable PAL60

Missing Lens Flare Effect
If EFB Copies to Texture Only is set lens flare effects are not emulated. Disabling EFB Copies to Texture Only makes the lens flare appear as it should.

Translucent Blue Rectangle
If Disable Fog is disabled, a translucent blue rectangle will be present on the screen. If Disable Fog is enabled, the translucent blue rectangle will no longer appear.

Aspect Ratio
This code allows wider screen aspect ratios beyond 16:9, specifically 21:9. Be sure to change the aspect ratio to "Stretch to Window" if you've adjusted the code to a wider view for the game.
