Nintendo is working at solving the problems Mario Kart Wii cheaters have posed by posting unbeatable times in the Time Trial mode, a rep has told us.

Snaking may be gone, but that hasn’t stopped gamers finding other ways to bend the rules of Mario Kart.

By driving only one of the three laps in a Time Trial run, then turning round to face the wrong way, cheaters have found a way to trick the game into giving them record-smashing times that are simply unbeatable by normal standards.

But Nintendo is on the case. “We have only been made aware of this in the past two/three days since release,” Nintendo told CVG, after angry witnesses of the exploit hit internet forums like a herd of angry, chest-beating apes.
“At this stage we are looking into it,” the rep added. Reports are claiming that Nintendo has already began deleting the dodgy times from the online leaderboards one at a time.

We doubt a patch will be used, purely because of the lack of storage on Wii for such things. Maybe a server change or user banning could be in order?

Either way, something must be done…

Chaotic arcade driving and frantic mini-games in Codemasters^®‘ Wii^TM exclusive.

Tuesday, April 15th – Emergency Mayhem™ is now shipping to U.S. retail nationwide and will hit U.K. and European stores this Friday, 18th April, Codemasters® announced today. Coming exclusively to Wii™, Emergency Mayhem puts players at the helm of three emergency services in a frantic race against time to hold together Crisis City, a mad metropolis that’s falling apart at the seams.

Combining chaotic arcade driving with a huge range of mini-game challenges, players must race against the clock in one of three emergency vehicles – a fire-truck, ambulance or police patrol car to reach different incident scenes.

Typically, in Crisis City, incidents requiring attention are of a decidedly slapstick nature and Emergency Mayhem takes advantage of the Wii Remote in a huge variety of mini games that come into play once players reach an emergency scene. Pump the Wii Remote to practice CPR, point it to direct water from a powerful hose, mimic a wrench to bring bursting water-hydrants under control, or position a trampoline to save people leaping from burning buildings.

With an entire city to explore, three branches of the emergency services to control and over 30 types of emergency to deal with, players have a huge challenge to complete. Players can also share the mayhem with a fantastic multiplayer mode featuring mini-game challenges for up to four players. Compete in a tournament or battle against the clock in Survival mode as friends and family compete to be the best.

Get ready to bring some order to Crisis City with Emergency Mayhem now shipping, exclusively on Wii™. For the latest movie and monkey-adorned wallpapers, visit www.codemasters.com/emergency
