Nintendo Wii
The Mario Kart series is great for fast-action, intuitive playing. Everything is light-hearted, from the controls, music, and visuals. Though, despite that, it a high-quality piece of software. The game includes a steering wheel, in which you place the Wii remote. You can also play with people around the world using the console's wi-fi ability. There are a number of karts, motorcycles, characters, and courses to unlock as you achieve high ranks. The physics are arcade style, so even little kids will be able to pick up the controls and not have to worry about ultra-realism. If you like Mario and company, and you want a comfortable learning curve, this is a good choice.
