So we're getting DLC for Mario Kart 8 with new tracks, karts, and characters, including several from non-Mario games

DLC 1 in November: Link, Cat Peach, Tanooki Mario

DLC 2 in May 2015: Villager, Isabelle, Dry Bowser

Bonus for buying both: 8 Colored Yoshis, 8 Colored Shy Guys
Each pack also includes 8 courses and 4 vehicles.

In UK, they're priced at £7 each. US prices not yet announced.

There's still no Amiibo-related update announcement.

not even three peaches is enough to satisfy my lust

i hope the next dlc is a peach pack that features every single one of her power up variations as a playable racer

give me penguin suit peach or give me nothing

I'll happily take more courses.

Nintendo is finally making strides to bring their online stuff up to par with everybody else

I'm kind of wary of Nintendo doing DLC but these additions are superfluous enough that I feel alright about it. Wondering when the Battle Mode DLC will be announced
Hopefully they cost $10 or less though. I'm especially happy about Isabelle, but Link should be really cool too. Maybe the next Kart game we get will just be Smash Kart.

DRY BOWSER

BUT NO DRY BONES

I loved Dry Bones :'(

Also it should be noted that one of the new vehicles in the first DLC pack is the Blue Falcon.

Hopefully they cost $10 or less though.

Both DLC packs are available to pre-order from the Wii U eShop starting tomorrow for $7.99 each. You can buy both packs together for a discounted price of $11.99.

but i too am very disappointed about the omission of dry bones

[Samus Aran]

i wanna play as Isabelle more than Link tbh lol

also who pre-orders dlc??

[Kalahari Inkantation]

no idea but if that turns out to be the only way to get the discount then i sure will lol

[don't let's]

also who pre-orders dlc??

Season passes

As a bonus, if you pre-order both Mario Kart 8 DLC packs you will immediately unlock eight new color options for Yoshi and Shy Guy in their game.
