Nor is it Mario Kart.
Man, this just makes me want a real racer even more. What do Wii owners get? GT Pro Series. Ubisoft comes along, dumps ass all over an already terrible old game, and now game developers think Wii owners don't want "serious" racing games (or any serious games at all, apparently). So none get made, and that means they think there's no market, so they don't make any, and the few times a game does get made, it sucks and so doesn't sell well. And thus the cycle of cruddy Wii games continues.
Getting back to the original point, though, F-Zero Z should at least be okay. It's not what I'm looking for in a racing game, but it's likely I won't have any other options.
