Mario Kart 8: Deluxe is now available worldwide for Nintendo Switch and has received universal praise. It’ll be a while until we find out just how successful the videogame has been commercially, but all signs point to a resounding success. With that in mind, Switch Streamers has dived in to offer you some tips on how to get started – both offline and online against other players – and help you take that pole position.
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
Nintendo has announced a variety of plans it has in store for MAR10 Day. The event, which celebrates all things Mario, technically is on Sunday though there are different things happening as early as today. Nintendo’s lineup includes giveaways, challenges, deals, and more.
It's meee Marioo and my lawyers are going to sue you if you emulatio los mio giocos for millions of coins!!!!
The Nintendo Switch has been an undeniable success for Nintendo, but which games make the best selling chart for the console?
Agreed. I think a lot of the AC: H sales have to do with early lockdown players!
I mean, I would've played it anyway. But I guess there's a lot of people who got into it because of the hype and their new found free time!
Nintendo made out like bandits with Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. It's the same game that was on the WiiU except they added 2 item boxes like in double dash.
It's the Capcom method:
1. Add a new word to the end of the title and features that should've been expected first time around.
2. Charge full price for it.
3. Profit.
this is why i always say that Nintendo will always be fine. look at those numbers lol
and those are all first party games.
ehm.. not bothering to read the article, but are you really instructing people to win to get ahead in a game that is all about winning? dude..
