Nintendo Unveils New Zelda, Animal Crossing, and F-Zero DLC For Mario Kart 8!

[kazrisk]

It's finally real.

 

[JabbatheHutt]

Wario Gold Mine?!?! That makes three Wario tracks in one game!!! I love you sakurai!

 

[RIDLEY is too SMALL]

8 courses + ANOTHER 8 courses?!?! ****ING Link? Isabelle? Why Isabelle? Whatever, I like Isabelle.

Wait a minute. Does this mean there might be stages based on Zelda, Animal Crossing, and F-Zero?

Nintendo, stop hurting my wallet.

 

[IsmaR]

Oh my gosh

This means we might actually get an Isabelle Amiibo

 

[ShadyWolfe]

First pack comes out November so my new main then shall be Link until Dry Bowser is out in May. Patches released along side these would be cool. A good invite system, voice chat during online races with friends, arenas and modes for battle mode, and custom item sets would be cool. I would pay money for a better battle mode.

 

[Baltarc]

Because three Marios and three Peaches wasn't enough, right?

 

[ShadyWolfe]

YO this totally fixes the problems I had with the game's lack of "good courses" and characters!

Link on a Motorcycle, can I get that in a main Zelda game pls

The Mario Kart 8 course were pretty good the retro courses on the other hand were terrible.

 

[ミスティック Speed]

Is this a dream?
I'm dreaming right now...
Super Smash Bros. Kart?!?!?!
what?! how!? YES!?!?! YESS!!!!!!

 

[Dragoncharystary]

There is only one thing I have to say about this: TAKE MY MONEY!

 

[Kirbybrawl]

So, they'll add in Alt versions of Mario and Peach, add Koopalings and take out other, more loved characters like Diddy and Bowser Jr, and they're adding characters from other game universes now...done with this.

Four variations of Mario and Peach. It's crazy.

 

[Snagrio]

Smash Kart. SMASH KART!!!

 

[ShadyWolfe]

Nintendo, stop it. You are destroying me with this god like fan service as of late. Please, my wallet can not take this anymore.


Why can't every game's DLC be this awesome?

GAAAWD I HOPE BABY PARK IS A DLC COURSE! PLEASE BASEGOD NINTENDO, I BEG OF YOU!!

Baby Park was already a retro course there are plenty of other courses they didn't reuse yet like Rainbow Road Wii and a majority of the 3DS courses

 

[iNinja5567]

My life is complete!

 

[SvartWolf]

hahah nice try nintendo...

*Looks calendar*
IT'S NOT APRIL 1ST????

 

[Xermo]

Just imagine the music potential
My ears are ready

 

[Kirbybrawl]

I hope we get Bowser Jr. and King Boo on future DLCs or even Captain Falcon!, with Link getting included the possibilities are endless!

It's very odd that we have an f zero course and blue falcon without the captain himself. Maybe a surprise announcement in the future hopefully or just promotion for an upcoming fzero game.

 

[JesseMcCloud]

Well, played, Nintendo. Well played indeed.

Super Smash Kart 8 confirmed

You mean this?

 

[Ferro De Lupe]

WTB Super Smash Bros KART!

/ShutUpAndTakeMyMoney

 

[Duskinja]

Baby Park was already a retro course there are plenty of other courses they didn't reuse yet like Rainbow Road Wii and a majority of the 3DS courses

True, but they could also use other courses like Mushroom City from Double Dash or Shroom Ridge MKDS.

 

[WinterShorts]

SUPER SMASH KART!! ITS BLACK NERD COMEDY'S DREAM!!!!!!

 

[camzaman]

PLEASE make some of the courses CLASSIC N64/SNES BATTLE MODE! THEN I WOULD PLAY FOREVER!

 

[SS-bros14]

Link, Villager, Isabella, Tanooki Mario, Cat Peach, Dry Bone Bowser, epic new tracks, AND F-Zero styled karts? SWEET!

 

[JesseMcCloud]

Four variations of Mario and Peach. It's crazy.

I do wish we had gotten Kitsune Luigi, considering how much fame his death-stare got.
Also, I'd rather have gotten Meowser, but Dry Bones Bowser is pretty cool too.
Let the speculation over Link's weight-class... BEGIN!!

Spoiler

I guess cruiser, like Rosalina and DK.

 

[Da Black Rabbit]

Baby Park was already a retro course there are plenty of other courses they didn't reuse yet like Rainbow Road Wii and a majority of the 3DS courses

I understand everyone has there own personal opinions but to be honest I really didn't enjoy ANY of the hand held Mario Kart games as much as I did the console versions. My best memories are from Double Dash so...give me Baby Park or give me DEATH.

I remember there where pretty good courses in Mario Kart Super Circuit, though. I loved Sunset Wilds. Mario Kart 7 was better then DS but the courses weren't that memorable to me.

 

[KhanYe]

@ KhanYe , you had an extra "da" in the Zelda jingle under the Link picture.

Sorry, it just bothered me.

DAMMIT. Thanks sir.

 

[ChikoLad]

I guess Rosalina will soon be de-throned as the most excessively common character online.

Spoiler

I do wish it was Kitsune Luigi and Cat Rosalina instead of Tanooki Mario and Cat Peach though. At the least, that would have evened things out. They still should have made Zelda herself playable though, complete with biker outfit.

 

[BowserK.Rool]

Kinda weird but awesome at the same time to see link in a mario kart game as well as other game franchise characters. As some have said, might as well make this a super smash kart game now. Then again, I'm not too surprised really being how this is obviously for the whole amiibo thing.

 

[κomıc]

HOW DO YOU RUN OUT OF DIGITAL DLC PRE-ORDERS?!?!?!

You are going to have to wait until people download their packs to enter the store.

Please understand.

 

[itsameluigi1290]

So hey guys what's all the freaking out f--
...
*drops cup of coffee that I wasn't actually holding*
HOLY EVERLASTING FIRETRUCKS
LINK
VILLAGER
ISABELLE
DRY BOWSER
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
So like I'm super excited for this, holy flip. I just... MAN. I really missed Dry Bowser and I'm really glad he's back. Now we just need Diddy Kong and Sonic and Shadow and I'll be super happy.

 

[Mach5Mike]

I thought the Pokken Tournament announcement was so hype that it could not be topped, and then they announce Mario Kart crossover DLC. Excuse me while I go find some money to throw at my computer screen. And while racing as Link and the Villager sounds awesome, I just feel like there's just one character missing:

༼つ◕_◕༽つ Give Captain Falcon ༼つ◕_◕༽つ

Seriously, if this is the closest Nintendo's ever going to get when it comes to making something that's F-Zero related (Nintendo Land doesn't count), just put Captain Falcon in this game and I'll shut up and be happy!

[The21stSmasher]

The Leaks! OMG!!

 

[Deleted member]

Now where is my Kirby!

 

[Gonoji]

This... is amazing! Super Smash Kart. Thank you, Nintendo. The fact that this could use all of the Smash Amiibos makes me ecstatic for Mega Man in Mario Kart.

 

[Rambeard]

Oh my word. I am so happy I have MK8.

 

[Triblaze]

I thought I was getting trolled when I saw this headline on IGN...
Well. Super Racing Bros? Smash Kart? Too awesome...

 

[TimeSmash]

Holy crap this is so amazing
I may literally die

 

[Prism]

I do really love this, but I've seen some comments about how people hope this character and that character are next. I hope they don't just put everyone into MK... I do think it'd be a lot of fun, but this is MARIO Kart, so I do hope they don't give it a Smash Bros.-esque roster :/

Don't get me wrong though, this DLC is awesome and makes me really want to buy MK8. Problem is, first I need a Wii U... Then I'll need Hyrule Warriors, Super Mario 3D World, the new Zelda game, POKKEN Fighters, and Smash 4.

 

[SpeedBoost]

THE HYPE IS REAL!!!!!

 

[Yakko93]

Red steel Link is coming.
