    Doesn't Nintendo have to green light games before they're published for their consoles?

    Thorugh some sort of subliminal memory transposing trick, I actually saw the word "Mario" in the title of the Mario Kart rip-off.

    Me too!

    I seriously did too. I had to read it three times before I realized that "Mario" wasn't actually hidden in the text somewhere.

    I bought the PC version of this for a relative who likes the colour Pink for... £1.

    If I saw the console versions for that price, I'd buy a stack of them so I could use them with trade-in promotions.

    I think you race on a desktop. Hence the name.

    OK, so it's a blatant rip-off of the "Micro Machines" games then (just like "Hamster Heroes" is a rip-off of Monkey Ball, and "London Taxi" probably bears a striking similarity to Crazy Taxi).

    "Ninjabread Man" is a rip-off of I-Ninja.

    Not that it's a BAD thing, per-se. ;-)
    (I heard it was pretty good)

    And a cash-in on the renewed popularity of the new Mini by BMW. ;-)

    They love their minis:

    But, personally, I hope they port "Rig Racer 2" to the Wii. After all, it features "dynamic online content delivery":
