Mario Kart 8 races onto the Wii U on May 30th and UK retailers are now boosting their pre-order bonuses for this must-have addition to the super-fast and furiously fun franchise!
Mario, Luigi, Peach, Bowser and their pals from the Mushroom Kingdom return to the series that since 1992 set Nintendo above all others when it comes to split-screen multiplayer mayhem and Mario Kart’s eighth revision is likely not to disappoint – even more so when you check out the goodies on offer for ordering your copy today.
The pre-order bundle for Mario Kart 8 comes with not only a physical copy of the game for Wii U console but also a mini replica of the deadly blue spinning shell which to veteran Mario Kart players has become an infamous and devastating object that can secure great victory – or one that can instill great fear on the race track, depending on whether you’re the giver or receiver. The shell also comes with a clear podium and base so it can be displayed in style!
UK retailer GAME is offering an extra gift in the form of a Wii U Mario Kart racing wheel while stocks last and other retailers will throw in a keychain of one of the famous weapons and bonuses including a mushroom, red shell and ‘Bullet Bill’.
To get the engines revved up before the release of the new Mario Kart 8, Nintendo will be offering the classic Super Mario Kart, originally for SNES, on its eShop from March 27th and purchasers of the digital game can also claim a saving of £5.49 off the price when ordering their copy of Mario Kart 8!
