It’s been a long wait, but Mario Kart 64 is finally making its way to the North American Wii U eShop this week. Nintendo’s website has it listed for tomorrow.

Here’s a brief overview:

“Put the pedal to the metal in this worthy successor to the Super NES classic, Super Mario Kart. With improved courses and a revolutionary head-to-head four-player mode, Mario Kart 64 is sure to win the heart of any race-driving fan. The game includes 20 different courses filled with dips, valleys, jumps, tunnels and bridges. Smooth, precise control will bring players back time and time again for freewheeling fun.”

Europe and Japan have both had Mario Kart 64 on Wii U for about a year. To say that this release was due in North America would be understatement.

Update (12/23): The discount is now in place, so you should find that the $2 discount upgrade is live.

Original (12/22): Mario Party 2 launched on Wii U today, though this isn’t the first time the game has seen a Virtual Console release. It also came out on Wii many years ago. Of course, that means those who purchased the original Virtual Console version should be entitled to a $2 upgrade price on Wii U instead of the full $10. But unfortunately, it’s not showing up currently.

Zelda: Majora’s Mask went through something similar a few weeks ago. Soon after the issue was reported, Nintendo corrected the problem. I imagine that will be the case here as well.
