During last night’s Nintendo Direct a new Mario Kart 8 trailer was revealed and in it some new information about the line up for the game. The ‘baby’ Nintendo characters are back, including Baby Mario, Luigi and Peach (among others). They haven’t been in the game since Mario Kart: Double Dash on the GameCube.
Also revealed were some new tracks but also the revelation that bikes are back in the game as well. Joining bikes though are UFOs and even four-wheel ATV buggies. That’s sure to be controversial.
The game is still on track for a ‘Spring 2014’ release date, which in Australia is our Autumn, so some time before the end of May.
An app-propriate name change
Controllers, Grips, Memory Cards, Cases, Bags, Screen Protectors and everything else. All in one place.
