Yesterday, N-Europe sparked the fires of the rumor mills with hopes that we will get a taste of Mario Kart for the Nintendo Wii at E3. I’m skeptical but excited since I fall over myself every time I hear good news surrounding first party titles. Let’s hope that the ‘trusted source’ isn’t a fooey.

Mario Kart for the Wii will be a “replacement” for Super Smash Bros. Brawl in Europe, which will sadly miss Europe this year, and it will be out early 2008 instead. 

I’d expect rumors like this and a bevy of others up until the gates open.
