Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Coconut Mall track updated to include moving cars
Posted on 2 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
The first wave of the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Booster Course Pass DLC brought back Coconut Mall, but not without some controversy. In the original game on Wii, the cars that can be found towards the end of the lap moved and caused interference as another obstacle. However, in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, they were static and stayed in place.
Nintendo apparently heard the feedback and has implemented a change. As part of the latest update to the game, the cars that the Shy Guys are riding in in Wii Coconut Mall now move from time to time. The only exception is Time Trial mode.
