Jakks Pacific bringing Mario Kart ride-on to the UK later this year
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 0 comments
Jakks Pacific is teaming up with Nintendo for the first Nintendo-licensed Mario Kart ride-on.
Super Mario Kart Ride-On is the real life counterpart to Mario’s kart from Mario Kart 7, sound effects and all. The vehicle can be switched between on-road and off-road tires.
Jakks Pacific’s Ken Goodison said of the ride:
“For the first time ever, you can be in the driver seat of your very own Nintendo Kart. It’s an exciting little runner that we expect to sit competitively within other 6V ride-ons and with it being so relevant to the Nintendo Mario Kart, it should do very well.”
Super Mario Kart Ride-On will debut in the UK this coming fall/winter.
