Bought this game for my little brother (he is 7 and an avid Mario Kart player). This game has several strong points going for it: great pick up and play game play with the Wii wheel for all ages (he is 7, I am 22 and it presents challenges to the both of us), also there are many, many cars from such as real models (NSX, Skyline, Lancer Evo, etc) to comical fake models such as a bowl of ramen noodles and monster trucks. Also the ability to customize and tune your car is a wonderful addition when compared to the static karts in Mario Kart. You can unlock something with a first place in most every race so right from the get go, the game gives you motivation to keep playing.
The game lacks in a few areas when compared to Mario Kart however. The weapons are not as fun or as diverse as in MK. Also, the graphics are a bit rougher but not by too much. Lastly, the track selection is not nearly as vast as in Mario Kart, but I have not unlocked all of them so that could change in the days to come. Still, most races take place on a few tracks, but are just run on different circuits or in different directions to keep things interesting/challenging.

All points aside, Penny Racers is a great game and when used with the Wii Wheel it makes for an enjoyable experience for all ages.

i had bought this for my nephew and he loves it. hes about 7 years old and he loves the game. hes says it easy and he always plays it.
