Abstract: This paper is devoted to the construction and analysis of the Wigner functions for noncommutative quantum mechanics, their marginal distributions and star-products, following a technique developed earlier, {it viz/,} using the unitary irreducible representations of the group $g$, which is the three fold central extension of the abelian group of $mathbb{R}^4$. These representations have been exhaustively studied in earlier papers. The group $g$ is identified with the kinematical symmetry group of noncommutative quantum mechanics of a system with two degrees of freedom. The Wigner functions studied here reflect different levels of non-commutativity -- both the operators of position and those of momentum not commuting, the position operators not commuting and finally, the case of standard quantum mechanics, obeying the canonical commutation relations only.
