A new stage today, Wuhu Island as first seen in the original Wii Fit! Sakurai explains:
He continues:
For example, here’s the starting line of a power-cruising race. You may also find yourself at a mountain summit, in front of a fountain, on a suspension bridge, in a fighting arena, or riding on a boat. The stage really feels like a resort vacation.
I’ve been so busy with developing this game that I dreamed about tropical islands every time I saw this stage. …Beaches in the summer are great, aren’t they?

More information about how Mario Kart 8’s DLC works online
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 1 Comment
Yesterday we learned that the downloadable content in Mario Kart 8 will be compatible online, but it won’t work if anyone in the online lobby doesn’t have it. Nintendo has since shared additional details about how the DLC functions over the Internet.
You’ll have two options when going online. It will be possible to play with the original 32 courses or with all 40 courses. When creating a tournament, you’ll again be able to select 32 or 40 courses, though you can also select to only play the DLC stages. Everyone will need the DLC if you decide to create a tournament with all 40 courses.
The one thing you’ll never have to worry about is someone being kicked out of a lobby because they don’t have the new content. Furthermore, those with the DLC won’t be disrupted because other people didn’t get the new courses.

IGN published a new report on Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker today with even more footage and details. You’ll find the latest content rounded up from the site below.
Drop-Road Dash
– Set in the cloudy skies
– Navigate thin pathways made of Donut Lifts
– Donut Lifts are the same platforms from Super Mario Bros. 3 that slowly breakaway before plummeting from sight
– When you can’t jump to save yourself, these precarious platforms are a quick trip back to the restart menu
– Run and find stable places to stand and run between small patrols of ladybug-like Biddybuds
– Red boost pad near the end of the level shoots you across the last narrow platforms at a high speed
Drift-Along Canyon
– Art/assets are like the poison-filled moats and jungles I jumped through in SM3DW
– Toad has ride little lifeboat-sized islands across purple moats
– Toss turnips to activate switches and get hidden gems
– One portion of the level has you tossing turnips while under fire from Missile Banzai Bills
– Missile Banzai Bills are red variants of the recognizable Mario enemy that have limited homing abilities
– New enemy in the level called Mole
– Mole travels by tunneling underground and has a four-leaf clover for a head
– If you plug it from the ground by its head, you’ll get gems and other rewards
– These include an invincible Pickaxe that’ll rip through enemies and patches of grass
Up ‘n’ Down Terrace
– Start off perched atop a two-story gazebo
– Tiny garden on the ground floor has a few maze-like hedges and P-block switches that raise and lower different wooden gates
– Need to collect hidden gems and find the path to the Star tucked away at the center
– All stages have alternate challenges that are tougher
– In this level, the challenge is to clear the stage by only using three switches,
Beep Block Sky Plaza
– Captain Toad riffs on a tense, fun music stage from Super Mario Galaxy with some twists
– Fire Bro is on an an elevated platform near the end of the stage and throws fireballs down to try and hit Toad
– The red and blue blocks shift positions in time to the sound of a three-beep warning
– Ladders on the sides of some blocks hang suspended after some blocks have disappeared
