Exciting Arcade Action with Power-Ups and Police Chases
Need for Speed: Nitro is a cool arcade racer. You can race in 5 different cities and watch out for the police. You can find various power-ups on the roads, like a key that repairs your damage or a police badge that makes the police chase your opponent. But maybe it's all a bit too arcade-like...

Energetic arcade action with intuitive controls
In my opinion, Need for Speed: Nitro offers an energetic and accessible racing experience that perfectly matches the capabilities of the Nintendo Wii. The game places less emphasis on realism and more on pure arcade action, resulting in fast races and vibrant, cartoonish visuals that add a unique style to the series. I find steering with the Wii remote enjoyable and intuitive, although it can sometimes be a bit imprecise in hectic situations, which can be quite frustrating.

Nitro is primarily about speed and style, and you are rewarded for spectacular stunts and aggressive driving. The adrenaline you feel when executing a perfect drift or dodging opponents is genuinely thrilling. While it may not offer the depth or complexity of other titles in the franchise, such as Need for Speed: Most Wanted, it sets itself apart as a fun and light-hearted racing game. This fits well with the casual nature of the large Wii audience, who are more in search of a relaxed and entertaining gaming experience.

I feel that Need for Speed: Nitro is a good choice for players who enjoy an arcade-style racing game without too much fuss. The colourful style and focus on speed make it an entertaining addition to the Wii library. If you're looking for a fun, not too serious racing experience, this game is definitely worth a try.

Pure arcade racing fun
Need for Speed: Nitro is a pure arcade racing game. It doesn't offer much realism, but it does feature cartoonish versions of real cars. You'll be speeding through five world-famous cities (Cairo, Dubai, Madrid, Singapore, Rio de Janeiro). Additionally, you can also play with someone else on your own Wii. Unfortunately, there's no Wi-Fi support, but it's a lot of fun with this beautiful game.

Beautiful environments, less realistic cars
Need for Speed: Nitro remains my favorite racing game. Nitro is slightly less realistic when it comes to cars, but a bit of variation isn't a bad thing! The cities you drive through are very enjoyable. Really beautiful environments.

Best racing game for the Wii with smooth controls and spectacular Nitro moments
I think this is the best of the 2 Need for Speed games I've played on the Wii.
I'm not really a fan of steering with that Wii controller, but with this game, it went quite well. You can race through 4 different world cities, with good graphics.
As the game suggests, there are many moments where you can use your Nitro, making you go extra fast.
In short, one of the best racing games for the Wii.

Great game, unrealistic cars
A really good game but the cars don't look very realistic. If you look at Need for Speed: Nitro, you'll see what I mean. This is the only downside, otherwise it's a great game.

What a fast game!
If you want to let off some steam, you should definitely play Need for Speed: Nitro. The speed in this game is mind-blowing! The only downside is that the cars don't make much sense, but the levels are beautiful with fun tracks. If you also buy a steering wheel for your wii controller and choose the option to look out of the driver's window, you'll be completely immersed in the game! In short: a game that you absolutely must have :).

The lesser of NFS
I personally find Need for Speed: Nitro to be one of the weaker entries in the series. The graphics are quite disappointing and I find the steering to be unrealistic.

NFS is super funny
I find Need for Speed: Nitro a super funny game, especially the drifting, I find it funny and fun, not entirely realistic.
At first, it may remind you of a twisted Need for Speed, but once you've played it, you'll realize it's a fun game.
The career mode is also enjoyable, with something different each time compared to normal races.

NFS Nitro is a mediocre game
I find this to be a mediocre game because you can't freely roam around or be chased. I also find the graffiti on the walls annoying.
I do enjoy customizing cars though.

During the countdown at the start of Need for Speed: Nitro, you should rev up as high as possible. Once your first nitro bar is full, make sure to use nitro right away. Now your second nitro bar is also full!
