Thanks to the lovely people at Nintendo, Boomtown spent their Saturday at Mercedes World at Brooklands in Surrey, playing Mario Kart on the Wii, meeting celebrities and driving around the track in a Mercedes. They were joined by people from other media companies and a whole host of finalists for the national Mario Kart Grand Prix. After chatting to a few people Boomtown appeared to be one of the few that hadn't already had a sneak peek of the game, so they soon sought to rectify that.
For a lot of people, Mario Kart Wii was their introduction to the franchise, and what a terrific introduction they had.
Major 2023 game anniversaries include The World Ends With You, Mario Kart Wii, and The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, among many others
Nintendo has provided a sales update on Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, and it's confirmed that the game has now outsold Mario Kart Wii.
Always remember Polygon's take on MK 8 and how it would end up being worse selling entry in franchise history. Oof. MK 8 deluxe is going to have one hell of a holiday. You know that Switch bundle is coming back.
Baffles me that they haven't made any new dlc for this, and yet they focus on the mobile game smh
