I've been needing to upload some Mario Kart Wii footage for quite a while a now.  After all, I've owned the game since the day it was released.  So here it is, my first upload of some Mario Kart Wii races.  

I recently earned my Gold Wheel icon, so I'm very happy about that.  I initially played the game using the Wii Wheel (when it came out), but I had a hard time earning the 3 Star rating, so I used the GameCube controller to do that.  However, you need to do 50% of your races using the Wii Wheel to earn the Gold Wheel icon, so it took a while for me to bump the percentage up because I've played the game a decent amount.  I certainly play better with a GameCube controller, but for me, the Wii Wheel is more fun.

These four races were played back to back in Worldwide mode.  I edited out the lobby/voting sections so you wouldn't get bored with that stuff.  These are some of my favorite courses in the game, so I really got lucky ending up with those.  The courses are:

Grumble Volcano (First Race)
Koopa Cape (Second Race) - 3:37 mark.
GCN DK Mountain (Third Race) - 7:38 mark.
Rainbow Road (Fourth Race) - 11:27 mark.

Recorded with the Hauppauge HD PVR and the Wii's component cables.  I'm using the Wii Wheel.
