I have my children to our Wii U the steering wheel taken as an accessory (the controller itself costs about 40), so this better Mario Kart can play 8. At first I was a bit skeptical if it really what is good, but it works great. Through the steering wheel has more grip surface as the controller alone and can not slip. And the beauty is not just "races" that can be driven but also "Dragon" can be flown (How to Train Your Dragon 2). One more thing to the people who feel it is "confidence trick" that Nintento has on the package with steering wheel controller. It is very big on the packaging that no controller is included
