Nintendo has updated the official Mario Kart 8 website with first details regarding the game’s amiibo functionality.

According to the site, players will be able to dress their Mii characters in racing suits based on the different looks of the amiibo characters. The feature will be possible with an update scheduled to be released November 13 – next Thursday.

The Mario Kart 8 amiibo page seems to be a bit broken at the moment, so it’s possible that this information wasn’t intended to be revealed just yet. Maybe we’ll see an official announcement during tomorrow’s Nintendo Direct!

Update: Nintendo’s Japanese Twitter account confirms that the Direct is covering games leading up to Spring 2015.

A new Nintendo Direct presentation will be held tomorrow, Nintendo has announced. The broadcast will go live at 5 PM ET / 2 PM PT.

As of late, most of the Nintendo Directs have been game-specific. But tomorrow’s presentation will provide updates on upcoming games for both Wii U and 3DS.

Nintendo’s European PR states that the presentation will focus on “titles releasing by the end of this year, while looking ahead to 2015.” The European stream will be hosted by Nintendo president Satoru Iwata and Nintendo of Europe president Satoru Shibata.

Some details about Luigi’s Mansion Arcade have surfaced and been translated over on NeoGAF and while it doesn’t get into the meat of the gameplay too much it does help provide a bit more of an overview on what to expect. Here’s the quote:

-Coming Summer 2015.
-1st person perspective. Luigi does appear in some cutscenes.
-Professor E. Gadd gives the tutorial and some in-game advice.
-Based on LM2 – Gloomy Mansion was the only mansion featured in the location test. More stages in the final game.
-Controller shaped like the Poltergust (including rectangular end), two buttons (trigger + strobe). Shake left and right to suck in ghosts.
-The main unit itself had a start button and a bomb button.

The folks over at Yacht Club Games are seriously committed to making up for the European and Australian delay of Shovel Knight. Today they announced a cross platform discount for those that are looking to pick the game up, offering a 33% discount on the subsequent purchase of the game until the end of 2014. Still no word on release date but with a promo window like that I’d imagine it’s got to be soon!
