Those of us unhappy with Need for Speed: Shift's shift to a more "realistic" style of racing and overall general crappyness might actually be looking forward to a Wii racer that isn't developed by Nintendo as Need For Speed: Nitro bursts onto the Wii and DS. If our experience with the game is any indication it looks like another gaming company might have actually been able to master the the Wii steering wheel. It's a complicated piece of plastic, evidently.
The images below show off some more of the plethora of licensed cars that the game features. These are the Class B cars and they include such awesome cars as the Porche Caymans S 2008 and a 1968 Corvette. I think those are awesome cars. I'm not entirely sure, which means that the game is most likely geared towards me! Three cheers for a lack of car knowledge and an inability to even remotely handle any game that drives like a real car! Plastic steering wheels and cartoonishly shaped vehicles are always going to get my vote.

Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!
But this game looks like the OLD Need for speed games, you know, the ones that were GOOD and FUN.
I just hope you can drive like you can in mario kart...
Plus, the graphics actually aren't half bad. They seem to have pulled off the cartoony look rather well.
Not the black and grey worlds with dark colored cars and serious racing.
I hope this one has free roam.
