I still can't believe they thought of Tanooki Mario and Cat Peach for DLC characters. Like, "We get a shot at bringing more characters for the DLC! Who should we bring?" "Link from Zelda?" "That's brilliant! Who else?" "More Mario and Peach?" "BRILLIANT"
They are essencially lightweight versions of mario and peach Ex Mario and peach (normal weight) Metal Mario & PGP (Heavy) Suit Mario and Peach (Light)(Not confirmed yet but it looks like it) But i agree with you and Kirby and Cpt Falcon
Cat peach, tanooki mario and the koopalings should've all been different costumes like they did with the shy guys and yoshis and used the spare space from the koopalings to bring new/returning characters
And metal baby mario, and baby tanooki mario and metal tanooki mario and metal baby tanooki mario. Of course there has to be metal baby peach and metal cat suit peach and metal baby cat suit peach and if there's a baby version there is also a teen version and an old version. So now there's teen mario and metal teen mario and a tanooki teen mario and a metal teen tanooki mario and an old... You get it.
I remember playing Mario Kart 64 back in the day for the first time thinking "this game is amazing, it can't possibly get any better than this"... I was wrong.
I'm so excited for this pack. Nintendo's DLCs are always awesome. Instead of giving you an incomplete game, with DLC to complete it, Nintendo gives you a complete game and DLC is completely optional, but always awesome. Keep it up!
The tanooki mario and cat peach should've been just an alternative skin like shy guys and yoshi's, could've put zelda and captain falcon in the roster. Still the bundle is worth every penny.
I'm not happy with the racer selection, either. Lol I rock Ludwig for pure hair and laugh awesomeness regardless but Dry Bones is necessary for me...BUT, the price of both packs is soooooo worth the tracks alone!
That doesn't matter to me, really. I want new characters, not 3 versions of the same character before we get classic ones from older games. (again, obviously I'll be okay and play it no matter what)
The one thing that annoys me is, why did they think we needed MORE Mario's and MORE Peach's? We already have Mairo, Metal Mario, Baby Mario, now Tanooki Mario? Already had Peach, Baby Peach and Pink Gold Peach (Dumbest character ever) seriously NO MORE CLONES.
***** I know! That's like saying if I put on a different outfit, I'm a different person with my own personality, etc. If I was Mario or Peach, wouldn't you find it weird that you're driving past yourself? Honestly, I would want to kill them if I was in that position.
***** I know. Its sad really. And I heard people actually asked for those two on Miiverse. Like...what?! Out of all the people in the Mario Universe. They pick power-up versions of Mario and Peach. -.-
***** So true. Honestly, I'm a HUGE Mario fan and I could've thought of a better roster than this. Like, I don't mind Link, but I still prefer it to...have...Mario Characters. :/

@@T1DK My Switch has been mostly collecting dust for almost 3 years now. I’ve had a Wii U since 2014, and it’s my preferred console by a long shot, just had lost access to the DLC.
The cheapest DLC of this entire generation. Also, I love the new F-Zero Mute City remix. Game companies take notes: this is what a PROPER game looks like.
At first I was a bit skeptical about this whole DLC thing for Mario Kart 8, but after they announced all the courses, karts, and characters, I'm excited as heck! Can't wait for all the courses but I'm really excited to see Dragon Driftway and Ice Ice Outpost. Also, I can't wait for the amiibo's! The only problem is that Cat Peach and Tanooki Mario should just be skins of Mario and Peach.
Zelda x Mario Kart is a bit misleading, this is hardly a crossover between the two, this is Mario Kart + Link and a Zelda stage, with the majority of this DLC being completely unrelated to Zelda
Link and the Hyrule Castle stage means that it is a crossover. It doesn't matter that there's only one stage and character from the series, they're crossing over. It's the literal definition.
Will Captain Falcon become an available character in a later DLC, i mean we get a F-Zero Circuit and a Blue Falcon Cart, why we don't get Captain Falcon as a character? It would be sad if we will not get him
They just started adding non-Mario themed characters. This isn't Smash Karts (yet) so just wait and see, kay? :3 Who know's what the future will bring? Just be happy for now that you CAN play as Link on several non-Mario related courses. ^^
I realy like Nintendo, because they always make realy good games and they try there best. Also, I love their brands, their characters, how they've always focused on gameplay, how they've always taken their own route no matter what anybody in the industry thinks. Thats why I love Nintendo.

Don't worry you still can. I read in a article that if you buy the DLC pack, there's going to be an option if you want to play with JUST the DLC courses or the regular courses. Or the regular courses and the DLC courses. But it only works if you bought it though. I think it works like that. That's what it stated.
UNGODLY AWFUL Now I get it! XD I thought you meant when I told the guy above about the article that there was going to be a "LINK" for it. And Link is in Mario Kart. X)
This is how I see new games/dlc Announced a year or so before release Complete the game like a month early Just sit there for a month until the time comes
I purchased the bundle months ago. It's cool they reward you for early purchase by giving you different color Yoshis and different color Shy Guys. I look forward to playing Mario Kart 8 again, but with these new additions. It's sure to be fun!
Those new tracks ate really awesome. My favorite is the F Zero track. Hopefully they will release that game for the Wii U as well. Also bought the double pack, so 8 new tracks in May 2015 ;)
***** I agree, the Super Horn is a rare item to get and it would make more sense to be a POW-block and it's utilization should be changed as well. It would be sweet that you could either drop it behind or throw it forward you and if you do so, a counter would activate from 3-0. All the racers who are hit within that certain area loses all items (blue shell included) except the indestructible items like the super star etcetera. PS I thought the same thing when I saw the Super Horn :D
This is doing DLC right. 1. A ton of content at a nice price 2. Developed after the game was made, rather than being cut content from the final game just sold as DLC 3. Not locked on disc 4. Not Day 1
I advanced purchased the bundle immediately the day it was made available (August 27th). It's a really great deal. 12 bucks for all that content is ridiculous. Nintendo knows how to do DLC right.
I was hoping Nintendo would release courses that were in the single player already as dlc for online multiplayer. =`( Oh well. All i want is some disk locked content and always online drm so that if my internet drops out i can't play the game. I'm disappointed in you Nintendo. Can I at least get always online drm as a dlc pack? Please? =(
This is so stupid mario kart 8 is still ongoing but now with worse imported graphics from mario kart tour in the newest dlc for dx. Milking the same cow for 10 years… the milk eventually runs out…
@@michaelmorales1475 the thing is there wont be because the team working on these new tracks is not the same team that worked on all the past MK8 & MK8 Deluxe content. It's a different team. That team is working on mario kart 9 so these new people wont use the same textures and lighting
Who decided to come back here after the 8 deluxe booster course expansion announcement?
Me XD
Yeh
Same
so now we wait wave 3 in booster expansion pass )
Me Beacause the good old days i mean just 8 dollars NOT 25
That's how the dlc was
Even both are 11 dollars
Less than 25
Any other game company would be like:
"Character pack - 7.50$"
"New vehicles - 10.00$"
"Four New courses - 15.00$"
"Eight new courses - 30$"
"Bundle pack - 35.00$"

Amen

Fraser Laidlaw Thank you! I do my best.
fapman you don't have to buy them dude... so why are you complaining?
All this for $8, good job Nintendo. This is how DLC is supposed to be.
I agree, compared to the nickel and diming of most DLC, this is a great deal. Looking forward to both packs.
I preordered them both for 12.00, Nintendo is the only company that does DLC right!
I know! I'm so excited for this! I've always dreamed of Link in a mariokart and... I love nintendo
8 dollars seems cheap for all this
Fire Emblem's DLC wasn't done so well... 30-40 bucks for leik, 15 maps...
I still can't believe they thought of Tanooki Mario and Cat Peach for DLC characters. Like,
"We get a shot at bringing more characters for the DLC! Who should we bring?"
"Link from Zelda?"
"That's brilliant! Who else?"
"More Mario and Peach?"
"BRILLIANT"

Cat peach, tanooki mario and the koopalings should've all been different costumes like they did with the shy guys and yoshis and used the spare space from the koopalings to bring new/returning characters
Should add Fox McCloud as a character and the Arwing as a kart
Now we can play as Mario, Baby Mario, Metal Mario, and Tanooki Mario! The same goes for Peach as well! Oh, the variety!
We need Dr. Mario AND Paper Mario! =P

I purchased the bundle months ago. It's cool they reward you for early purchase by giving you different color Yoshis and different color Shy Guys. I look forward to playing Mario Kart 8 again, but with these new additions. It's sure to be fun!
Why would anyone hate on Peach in a Cat Suit. Just think about that for a minute.
It looks like link is having the most fun he's ever had
Nintendo please have DLC for battle mode
Those new tracks ate really awesome. My favorite is the F Zero track. Hopefully they will release that game for the Wii U as well. Also bought the double pack, so 8 new tracks in May 2015 ;)

Wow, thanks Nintendo for this! Very nice.
I would be wonderfull if they added new Objects too :)
Yeah, or even returning items would be sweet like chain chomp and the giant koopa shell from Double Dash
Grégory Leonard Dp that's what I was thinking xD i'm pretty bored of the Piranha plant and the boomerang
DutchmanPF93 hahaha, me too especially the Piranha Plant, doesn't help me at all :D
***** I agree, the Super Horn is a rare item to get and it would make more sense to be a POW-block and it's utilization should be changed as well. It would be sweet that you could either drop it behind or throw it forward you and if you do so, a counter would activate from 3-0. All the racers who are hit within that certain area loses all items (blue shell included) except the indestructible items like the super star etcetera.
PS I thought the same thing when I saw the Super Horn :D
So Wario's mine carts boost you instead of crashing you. That's a nice change. Also the random layout of the Excitebike track sounds awesome!
Is there any new tires or gliders aswell? Like the hyrule kite
Yes, Loz related wheels and glider.
As far as I can tell, the Zelda wheels and glider are the only new wheels and gliders. The rest are karts.
Unless anymore are unlockable which I seriously doubt. It's only the Zelda tires and glider. ~ the kart select was shown on the Nintendo minute.
Each vehicle will have parts in all categories if my information is accurate.
SuperBendercade We have not seen anything related to a new set of wheels or gliders for any of the other three vehicles yet, so it's unlikely.
I am looking forward to dragon driftway the most
it's okay if nintendo does it
This is doing DLC right.
1. A ton of content at a nice price
2. Developed after the game was made, rather than being cut content from the final game just sold as DLC
3. Not locked on disc
4. Not Day 1
***** Preach it brother!
DMD00 I have a brother?! :O
***** In Nintendo we are all brothers! :D
AllMightyKingBowser Amen
I'm so excited! I bought the bundle as soon as it was announced and have been waiting for this :D
the dlc tracks now suck. these were actually made well.
Who couldnt like this! I'm glad to see Captain Falcon ship Mute City in the mix! That alone just screams her a new f-zero game.
Am I really the only one who is excited more for Tanooki Mario and Cat Peach than Link?
The only one in the world, you can go ahead and feel special now.
Yes.
Me too. I want those 2 more.
SaugKenny FINALLY SOMEONE WHO AGREES
Kirby Lover Sorry to say, but that's not something to be proud of.
I advanced purchased the bundle immediately the day it was made available (August 27th). It's a really great deal. 12 bucks for all that content is ridiculous. Nintendo knows how to do DLC right.
I was hoping Nintendo would release courses that were in the single player already as dlc for online multiplayer. =`( Oh well. All i want is some disk locked content and always online drm so that if my internet drops out i can't play the game. I'm disappointed in you Nintendo. Can I at least get always online drm as a dlc pack? Please? =(
I don't understand what you are asking... You can play the tracks online if that's what you mean.
By the way, disk locked content sucks. It tells you that they are just greedy bastards who wanted a bit of extra cash
Sanic Fast Sh. Don't tell anyone but... I was joking. ;)
Whoosh
That was the sound of the joke flying over my head
SUGGESTION: Add captain falcon to the game.
This is so stupid mario kart 8 is still ongoing but now with worse imported graphics from mario kart tour in the newest dlc for dx. Milking the same cow for 10 years… the milk eventually runs out…
Nah, it's not stupid, it's still making tons of Money.
@@michaelmorales1475 oh I’m just over it!! At least match the graphics used from 9 years ago?? They can’t even do that
@@Nothing-37125 We'll see how it ends up, hopefully better than The Trailers, I know you're frustrated that there's no Mario Kart 9 (yet).
@@michaelmorales1475 the thing is there wont be because the team working on these new tracks is not the same team that worked on all the past MK8 & MK8 Deluxe content. It's a different team. That team is working on mario kart 9 so these new people wont use the same textures and lighting
“Only on Wii U”
That didn't age well.
