The Mario Kart Channel allows you to check records and view worldwide tournaments for Mario Kart Wii without having the disc inserted. To actually play the tournaments, however, you'll need to have the disc inside of the Wii. The same goes for playing rival ghosts.
Most functions of the channel have been discontinued as of May 20, 2014. The channel was unofficially rereleased for use with Wiimmfi on May 10, 2014, and began to support RiiConnect24 in November 2017.

Trivia[]
Mistakes[]
- For some reason on the Wii Menu, The channel is called Mario Kart Wii instead of Mario Kart Channel.
- If your Wii console was in maintenance mode and have the Mario Kart Channel on it, when you click on it, the word channel changes to Japanese text and the karts that you might not have unlocked, they are still on the banner.
