Jayson Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 (edited) Some like the wheel and others the controller - or maybe some like both! Anyway, I could never get used to the wheel, but i love the controller. OK, I don't really like the wheel on any video game, but I remember playing with one on the big arcade ones. You know, where the game is as big as a refrigerator! Edited August 15, 2018 by Jayson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JennyorAlice Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 I normally play the controller. I had the wheel for my Wii but the rest of the time I've always played with just a controller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayson Posted October 15, 2018 Author Share Posted October 15, 2018 I like the wheel for arcade games. In that case, I cannot understand why I didn't like it for the Wii. OK, who has tried it on those huge arcade things? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alyxx Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Controller. The wheel just feels strange since it's not attached to anything. Kinda just feels like you're holding something detached from your car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DylanC Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 All about the controller for me! Tbh, I just haven’t had a chance to try the wheel lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MegaphoneStallone Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 Controller. All the way. I haven't played with the wheel as it was a thing since and when I dropped away from gaming entirely, and also I'm a massive luddite who rejects change in every way it comes. So yeah, control.

Jerlene Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 My brother has the wheel so I've tried both but I don't like extra crap like that unless I'm playing Duck Hunt on the old school console. That being said, I rather play just using the regular controllers only. It's bad enough I'm driving I don't want to have to make my brain get familiar with a new type of controller. Also, a regular controller is just easier to control... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noru Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 For me it's pretty weird actually. I prefer playing with only one joycon, but I need the wheel for the additional size. But I don't use motion controls, I'm just using the regular controls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shortie861 Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 I remember trying the wheel on Mario Kart a few times, safe to say I looked like a rookie when playing if I was using the wheel. A lot of people seem to think using the wheel gives you more accuracy and makes it easier for you to be able to play the game but I found I was the complete opposite. I find playing with the controllers on the Nintendo console I am playing on helps me out a lot more, I definitely hit the sides and fall off the map a whole lot less when I am using the main controls and not a wheel. I guess it depends on how you grew up playing as to which you prefer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katri Marcell Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 Wheels are the best 😄 Especially if you're playing with friends. They take space though and it pains me how bulky they look on my shelf. The game itself is amazing for spending time, although I'm a huge noob. I can't even beat the bots!

Alexander. Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 (edited) Both, however I have a preference. I could never get used to the controller so I love the wheel. All importantly, if your playing against or with your friends online it gives you more accuracy and a higher chance of winning.

killamch89 Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 Controller because that is what I've always played it with from the N64 days. I could try the wheel but I'd probably flop really hard at Mario Go-Kart... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoyFreak Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Controller. Much easy to use and navigate! Boy I remember when I used to leave school early just to play this 😄 killamch89 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shortie Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 Mario Kart is still a fun and amazing game to play today and I still find myself jumping on it on the Nintendo Switch every so often. As much as I have the ability to use different ways to play the game, I always opt for a wired controller when I play Mario Kart, mainly because I feel that I play better than way and it just feels more comfortable for me. I remember playing it on the Wii with the wheel when that was released as I messed up so many times and so bad, so controller all the way for me!
