Nintendo could be planning a Mario Kart 8 Wii U Premium Pack for Europe, if the image above is to be believed.
French website Gameblog reports that the bundle will be available on May 30 – the racer’s release date. It’ll include a black 32GB console, GamePad, a copy of Mario Kart 8, and a free 7 day trial for Wii U Karaoke.
A price point of €299 is expected for the Mario Kart 8 Wii U Premium Pack. An official announcement should be made soon.

Some interesting things in this video. It’s mostly stuff we’ve seen before, though we do get a (very) brief look at Mario Kart TV, and there’s also a mysterious star count towards the end after one of the races is finished.
Thanks to PS4forever for the tip.
