''Mario Kart Wii'' includes two new items, the [[Mega Mushroom]] and the [[POW Block]], and brings back the [[Thunder Cloud]] from the ''Mario Kart Arcade GP'' installments (~~all~~ three ~~of which~~ are absent from ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8]]''). Items can be earned by driving through [[Item Box|Item Boxes]] on the courses, just like in previous games. Once a player has done so, an item will be selected via the Item Roulette. Players can use items by pressing {{button|wii|padleft}}. In general, players tend to obtain a weak item such as a [[Banana]] or a [[Green Shell]] when they are in first. However, if players are in a lower place, they obtain a slightly more powerful item such as a [[Red Shell]] or [[Lightning]]. Usually, the lower the place of the player, the rarer and more powerful the item they get. [[Super Star|Star]]s, Mega Mushrooms, and [[Bullet Bill]]s are examples of powerful items as they provide speed boosts and invincibility. This is the only game in the ''Mario Kart'' series where the drivers do not vocally react to getting inked by a Blooper.

|A thundercloud hovers over the recipient and strikes it with lightning after 10 seconds. The user shrinks to a very small size for 10 seconds, driving more slowly. Before this happens, the user has higher speed and acceleration while not losing speed when driving off-road, and may pass the cloud to an opponent by bumping into them. The Thunder Cloud can be destroyed if the driver goes into a cannon or uses a Star or Mega Mushroom. Only one Thunder Cloud can be in play at a time.
