Mario Kart 8 | Thursday, 05.30.24
On this day, the original Mario Kart 8 video game released 10 years ago exclusively on the Wii U in North America!
Sadly, since 2023, the original game and its DLC have been de-listed from the Nintendo eShop from the short-lived Wii U home console, as well as its online functionality through Nintendo Network ending this year (on April 8th, 2024).
However, its enhanced port, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe (2017) is available now on Nintendo Switch, with improvements on its battle modes and online matchmaking options, with the additional of adding 96 new and retro tracks as paid DLC over the course of 2023!
