6th August 2014 – For the first time ever, Nintendo’s Mario Kart series will be powered by some real-world horsepower. A software update on 27th August to Mario Kart 8 for Wii U will deliver a variety of new features for players, most notably the ability to download three free Mercedes-Benz cars that players can race in the game: the modern Mercedes-Benz GLA, the 300 SL Roadster from the 1950s and the legendary Silver Arrow of the 1930s.
The GLA model comes with special wheel options, while players can customise all three new karts with various wheels and gliders in the game. The new content arrives on the 22nd anniversary of the Japanese launch of the original Mario Kart game, Super Mario Kart, which launched on 27th August, 1992, for Super Nintendo.
Nintendo has just detailed how the Ganondorf costume DLC for Hyrule Warriors will be distributed. Mentioned in yesterday’s Direct, a code for the DLC will be given to players who both purchase Hyrule Warriors and register it on Club Nintendo between 9/26/14 and 10/23/14. Ganondorf will be a playable character in Hyrule Warriors and the codes will grant access to costumes based on his appearance in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time and The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess.
