Mario Kart Wii

Mario Kart Wii includes 16 new courses and 16 classic courses from previous Mario Kart games. For the first time ever, players have the option of racing with either karts or motorbikes. Players can also hit the road as their personalized Mii caricatures in addition to the handful of classic Nintendo characters found in the game. True to the series, the game features tons of racing, plenty of power-ups and oodles of objects for players to use to slow down other drivers. This title can install the Mario Kart Channel on the Wii console.

Missing Map
If Texture Cache Accuracy is changed during a race, the map in the bottom right corner may disappear. The faces of the racers will still show up.

Problems
{{Problems|{{#vardefineecho:problems|

Wii Pinboard Pictures
To properly display images pinned to the Wii Pinboard, you must disable the hack Store XFB Copies to Texture Only.

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.

Translucent Blue Rectangle
If Disable Fog is disabled and Ignore Format Changes is enabled, a translucent blue rectangle will be present on the screen. If Ignore Format Changes is disabled, the translucent blue rectangle will no longer appear. Ignore Format Changes is now disabled by default.

Lens Flare Effect
For the lens flare effect to be emulated when looking towards the sun, Store EFB Copies to Texture Only must be disabled.

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 Store EFB Copies to Texture Only. See. Store EFB Copies to Texture Only now disabled by default, and uneffected by opening the config.

Vulkan Backend Issues
When using the Vulkan backend the Wii Remote warning may render incorrectly and a frosted box appears in the upper left corner of races. Refer. This seemed to duplicate the Translucent Blue Rectangle problem corrected by disabling Ignore Format Changes.

Channel Installation Functionality
The Mario Kart Channel is not installed properly, even though the game indicates the install completed successfully. Partly fixed by, which added initial title import support, but breaks the NAND when actually installing the channel. fixes the issue.

Anisotropic Filtering Problems
The red and green glow on the conveyor belts in the Toad's Factory track (maybe other effects too) breaks if anisotropic filtering is used.
