This confirms eShop at launch. :)

$35 seems a little high. Hopefully they introduce a $20 one at some point.

Never mind, I updated the post with a $20 card.

Cool very useful for people who preordered or plan on picking up the Wii U

Not entirely. There are some games on XBL and PSN that cost $20 and many that cost $15. One card nets you two games if the prices are right.

live2play4220d ago

well not really

on the eshop games get added tax
so if one game costs 20 the other 15

you can only get one and be a few cents short to get the other

I always wished these worked more like gift cards where they have a value of whatever you want to pay for it. That way you can just for whatever amount you'd need or want.

Looking Ahead: The Lingering Questions About the Next Mario Kart

VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "10 years. It’s been almost 10 years since the last mainline release in the Mario Kart series. Mario Kart 8 came out for the Wii U in 2014 and became the best-selling game for the system by a sizeable margin, and later pulled the same magic trick on the Nintendo Switch under the stage name Deluxe. All in all, it's sold nearly 70 million copies over the last decade and is still selling like hot cakes to this day, so it’s no wonder Nintendo has been in no rush to replace it. However, with rumors of a new system being just around the corner, and reports a few years back that a new Mario Kart is indeed under way, it seems the era of 8 might very well be drawing to a close. It’s an exciting prospect to be sure, but after two Nintendo systems with Mario Kart 8 at their heart, a lot of questions remain about how Nintendo will choose to follow it up."

I hope they just keep building on Mario Kart 8; Add a track-creation tool, and probably open it up to more Nintendo IPs with new tracks and characters, so Metroid, Punch Out, Starfox, Animal Crossing, etc etc.

there wont be a new one until the switch 2 comes out.

nintendo needs their bangers early on
