This may be just my ignorance as I don’t know much about the new game, but why does wario, of all characters have a traditional cart instead of a bike… or do you get to choose your transportation between bike and cart?
I haven’t been following Mario Kart Wii due to not having a Wii at the moment, so this is the first time I’ve seen a video. From just this viewing, it doesn’t appear there’s anything dramatic added to the game, although it does look slick and like typical Mario Kart fun.
This game looks to be a spiritual sequel to Mario Kart DS, and I don’t think it looks any slower than that game was. Graphically I would have liked detail more along the lines of Double Dash, however I don’t mind the visuals. I think people should hold their judgement until they get a chance to play it.

Um…since when was Donkey Kong so…vocal? What’s with all this “OH YEAH” and “WOAH-O”? I’m just used to the ol’ monkey-screams. Bowser sounds weird too.
Strange, strange.

@leloup: I heard that you do choose your mode of transportation: Bike or Kart.
They took a lot from DS.

50cc = kart
100cc = bike
150cc = your choice
multiplayer = your choice (i assume)
