I haven't tried the GC controller, but I will. I think the difficulty level is more similar to any other racing game now. I was expecting easy peasy mario kart, especially since I had just played a round of double dash, the easiest mario kart ever. The items are way overabundant. I think I saw ONE blue shell in all of my whole playthrough of the GBA one, classic tracks and all through 150cc, now I get bombarded by seven per race! They made it slightly better item-wise when you're in first place though. In double dash, you barely ever got anything like a red shell in first, now you can get them slightly easier. The game would have been alot better if they toned back item usage a bit. (Might come from having 12 racers now, 33% more.) I'm getting used to it, and liking it all the more.

I hope Nintendo release a Mario Kart Wii 2. Unlikely, though.

Honestly, I don't know what they'd add in a sequel. They've already got online multiplayer, alternate vehicles, recycled tracks, and new tracks with every conceivable idea in them. Also, the new tracks curve and bank all over the place like someone removed the straight line tool from their level editor.

Mario Kart Wii does do some things right, IMO, despite the unfairness factor in GP races.

I like:
The Wii Wheel
Online races and opponent matching
The omission of voice chat with strangers
The music in Moo Moo Meadows
Choice of recycled SNES and N64 tracks

I was discussing this with Slink the other day. I don't see why they've not made it like Smash Bros Brawl, and introduced all the nintendo stars, like Link and Samus, and Pikachu . I imagine a Pikmin themed race track and a Metroid track. Also a pokemon-stadium themed track >_>;...

They could have done so much more I still quite like Mario Kart though

Yeah, the new tracks will probably be game-themed. This might also help MK look better in the graphics department. There's one really nice Autumn-themed track in MKWii, but generally it looks a bit pants even for a Wii game. Playing Metroid 3 after playing Mario Kart Wii for an hour makes it looks incredible. The thought of a Metroid track reminds me of that Minority Report animated gif where Tom Cruise is chasing Mario and Toad down a hallway.

So, does anyone else keep hitting themselves in the face with the safety strap when they're pulling off tricks.. because, like, I totally don't.

That's how the Mario Kart games work. The worse your position, the better power-ups you get.

I have taken the wrist straps off my remotes - They just tickle your wrist as they flail around. I've never thrown my remote either... well, at least not accidentally
