Posted on 1 year ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Starting today, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe players can access a brand new Custom Items feature. This has been made available as part of the just-released version 2.2.0 update.
With the feature, it’s now possible to choose which items appear in offline VS Races and certain online modes. You can have everything on, off, or only certain things on. If you’re interested in racing without the Blue Shell but keeping all other items for instance, that’s now something you can do. Players can even allocate specific items to each team in Team Races and Battles.

Rumor: Specific tracks outed for future Mario Kart 8 Deluxe DLC in new datamine
Posted on 1 year ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Rumors, Switch | 0 comments
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe fans may have uncovered specific tracks that are planned as future DLC courses thanks to a new datamine.
In the latest update released for the game which brought about the second wave of courses in the Booster Course Pass, fans noticed that Nintendo left song prefetches to many future DLC courses. Nintendo deleted the full songs of unreleased tracks from the ROM, but accidentally left some of the prefetch files, which are stored separately. Music preview files are used since it can take some time to load a full music file from the ROM and this is played while the full file is being loaded, as pointed out by Twitter user OatmealDome.
