Mario Kart 8 update coming next week, allows for Mii racing suits with amiibo
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 3 Comments
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!

Europe and Australia getting cross platform Shovel Knight discount
Posted on 10 years ago by Jarop(@gamrah) in 3DS, News, Wii U | 0 comments
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!
