Unfortunatly, Fire Emblem is out today and Mario Kart Wii comes in April.
My mum says I can only have one, so I need opinions on what one to get.
It'll most likely be Radiant Dawn though, what with all the non mario fans. ._.

That's a toughie. Personally, I would choose Radiant Dawn, because the art is wonderful and I like those games. (And I hate Mario.)

Mario Kart Wii probably has cool wi-fi options and things. But then again, how much different can it be from Mario Kart 64, Gamecube, and DS? (There is a gamecube version, right?)

Uhhh there's my two cents.

Well, my gaming magazine came yesterday and they gave Mario Kart Wii 94 out of 100, which is a great score, two less then the DS one.

Here's what they said in their little finishing box.


Pros:
That addictive Mario Kart gameplay.
Fantastic fun on Multiplayer.
Loads of online options.
The new stunt system is great.
The Wii Wheel works well.

Cons:
None.

We were worried that Nintendo were going to drop the ball on this one, how foolish we were. Mario Kart Wii is a fantastic and the best online Nintendo game ever.


But they didn't review RD. ;_; They currently have five stars on their release thing...what to do...

MARIO KART NAO.

Radiant Dawn is alright, it's just Fire Emblem on a gamecube, with gamecube graphics. You're not missing out on much if you just get the GBA Fire Emblem games. ^_^

So, with that said...MARIO KART

I just saw their review on their site...it doesn't sound good.

Whether welcome or not, fans of the previous game will feel pangs of familiarity here. Radiant Dawn continues to uphold the series' traditions of finely balanced strategy, but having refused to move forward, the game's sold itself short.

Pros:
Deep, involving strategy
Absolutely huge
Mid-battle saving

Cons:
No utilisation of Wii features
Visually lacking


;_; I liked Path of Radiance as well more then the GBA ones...hmm, I think I will get Mario Kart then. Their review has put me off a bit.

Radiant Dawn. I love Mario, and Mario Kart. However, Radiant Dawn has more thinking involved. Mario Kart, you can pick it up for a few minutes, then be done.

Mario Kart, no contest.

It's got the replay value to last long after you've finished, and Wi-Fi to
boot.

Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn has one story mode, and you'll put in on
the shelf and never look at it again when you finish.

Also, the Console FEs aren't as good as the old console/Handheld ones.

lol you're not even adding the Secret content in MKWii, which gives a TON of replay value compare to FE:RD
Wait it out for MKWii, I would lol

No offense, because I like you, but seeing the "lol" bookmarks on your post, really made me lose some respect.

And sanity.

Well, it doesn't matter anymore. My grandmother offered to pay for Mario Kart Wii. (Rock out!) So my parents got me Radiant Dawn today.

And what's bad with "lol" >_>

Anyways, that's cool that you ended up getting both games. Win-Win in the end

Nothing except my irrational, most likely childish dislike of excessive use of internet abbreviations. Some are ok. However, "lol" has always struck as one of those "words" that, if it were a person, I would NOT hesitate to stab in the throat.

Haha, I say "lol" all the time, but it's a bit of a joke between my friends.

Really, I was joking. I respect DL as much as before. I suppose I look for excuses to pounce on what we call "culture".
