How to Perform Tricks With a Wii Remote on Mario Kart

In "Mario Kart Wii," you play as one of Nintendo's famed classic characters as you race for the finish line in a speedy car or bike. The game even features an online mode, allowing you to race against other people around the world. If you don't know how to perform certain tricks with the Wii remote, you're likely to get left far behind other racers, especially in the more difficult modes. Learning these tricks lets you speed past the competition so you can earn first place.
