Mario Kart 8


Mario Kart 8

Defy gravity in Mario Kart 8, exclusive to the Wii U! Discover dizzying tracks and race against other players on the couch next to you or on the other side of the world!

Boost across blue anti-gravity panels to leave the road behind and reach the finish via breathtaking waterfalls, along walls, and through other secret routes. Handling changes in anti-gravity: bash into other racers for a spin boost and extra speed! Thanks to anti-gravity, daredevil gliding stunts, and high-speed underwater action, you can race on almost any surface across 32 new and classic courses!

In addition to classic karts and speedy bikes, you can now tear up the track with a new vehicle type that handles uniquely: the quad (ATV)! Choose your tires, body, and glider to build the perfect quad. Will you go for top speed, lightning-fast acceleration, or smooth handling? It’s all possible! Not only can each player have their own vehicle, there’s also a separate controller option for everyone. Use the Wii U GamePad, the Wii U Pro Controller, the Wii Wheel (with a Wii Remote), the Wii Remote with a Nunchuk, or the Classic Controller Pro.

Face rivals from around the world in various modes. Play with up to four players* in a Grand Prix, VS Race, or Balloon Battle, or race online** with up to twelve players. Join exciting online tournaments, or create your own: set the start and end times, tweak the rules however you like, and share your tournament code so others can join!

Share your victories and defeats with the world via Mario Kart TV. Create a video showcasing your smooth driving, head-on collisions, and other highlights, then upload it to YouTube*** so other players can watch!
