Mario Kart Channel

The Mario Kart Channel was a downloadable channel that allowed access to special game modes related to the game's use of Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection, such as tournaments, ghost races, and Friend Code Registration. You can also look at your Time Trials ranking compared to your friends, national, or global. The channel can be downloaded in the Wii Menu and can be accessed without having a Mario Kart Wii game disc inserted in the Wii. However, the disc has to be present in order to participate in a race or tournament. Tournaments and Ghost downloads have been discontinued but you can still race against the previous world record in a Time Trial.

The feature is not to be downloaded onto the system but is instead accessed through the game's main menu. Players can view Time Trial ghosts received through SpotPass and StreetPass, as well as race them, see a list of StreetPass tags, and view personal statistics such as wins, losses, coins collected, VR (Versus Rating), and the amount of StreetPass tags you have received as well as the player's title. You can also customize your own kart combination for your Mii to use(kart, wheels, glider) when people who have exchanged data with you via StreetPass want to race you. You can also customize your own Cup for other people to play, just like Grand Prix
