[News] Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Booster Course Pass wave 6 arrives next week!

 

Nintendo has just shared a video providing all the information for wave 6 of the DLC

source: www.youtube.com/@NintendoAmerica

This video gives us all we need to know about wave 6 of Mario Kart Deluxe's Booster Course Pass. We already got to know which characters where joining in this wave through the Nintendo direct but we didn't get to see anymore than one track. This video let's us know all the tracks that are coming in this wave. On top of this, it tells us the exact date this update will drop, which will be the 9th of November.

Here are the tracks in this wave:

Rainbow Road (Mario Kart Wii)
Madrid Drive (Mario Kart Tour)
DK Mountain (Mario Kart Double Dash)
Daisy Circuit (Mario Kart Wii)
Piranha Plant Cove (Mario Kart Tour)
Bowser Castle 3 (Super Mario Kart)
Rome Avanti (Mario Kart Super Circuit)
Rosalina's Ice World (Mario Kart 7)

As a reminder, these characters are coming in this wave too:

Diddy Kong
Funky Kong
Pauline
- Peachette

There is a decent mix of games featured here. I will outright say, I am quite sad we didn't get airship fortress from DS. The lack of Toads factory also hurts but daisy circuit and rainbow road are both great Wii picks. While I would have preferred the N64 bowsers castle instead of the Super Mario Kart version, this one does seem like they are making it more interesting than the original version at least and the music for the stage will most likely be great. Rosalina's Ice World is a really cool pick though, I haven't played it but have heard many like the track. DK mountain is also a huge fan favourite too, and while I would have preferred Dino Jungle this is nice too. The city tour tracks don't seem the most interesting but tour tracks are always cool because of the changing laps. Piranha plant cove though looks quite interesting for a tour track, I look forward to trying it. Overall, despite me not getting my two most wanted tracks, it's looking like a pretty good wave to end off with. Especially with the addition of 4 characters this time, which feature many fan favourites.

That's it for this blog, stay connected!

[News] New "Hype trailer" for Summer Game Fest goes live

  Summer Game Fest gets new video source : twitter.com/summergamefest Summer Game Fest hosted by Geoff Keighley will be live this Thursday, June 8th as announced a few days ago. The event will be streamed everywhere @  3pm ET / Noon PT / 9pm CEST.  Currently, other than a showing for the recently revealed Mortal Kombat remake, there are no details as to what to expect from the show. However, in a follow up tweet to the video post, Geoff states we will find out soon. In that same reply he also says what you see in the video is not indicative of what we will or won't see. So it serves as just a little mind refresher for some of the new games this year. Link to the video can be found here  SGF video I will be watching this event, but I will have my expectations set very low. Previous summer game fests have not been that interesting so I expect this one to follow suit. Though, with E3 not being a thing anymore offici...

[News] Another game comes to Nintendo Switch Online!

Another game is now available for Nintendo Switch Online members   source:  twitter.com/NintendoAmerica Over on X (Twitter), Nintendo has announced that  another game is coming to Nintendo Switch Online. This includes 1 GBA game. The GBA game included in this update is Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team. The GBA app does require the expansion pass tier so if you have it you can enjoy this game. This game will be available from August 9th. For more information on the game click this link: Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team I haven't played Red Rescue Team, but I have played Blue Rescue Team and loved it. They are essentially the same game just Blue Rescue Team was on the DS. Both aren't coming together as we sadly don't have a DS app. I hope people who have the expansion take the time to try this, as the Pokemon Mystery Dungeon games, while a bit repetitive in gameplay, bring a lot more interesting narratives than mainline Pokemon games.   That's it f...

[News] Grand Festival Announced! (Splatoon 3)

Nintendo has just announced the last? Splatfest! source:  x.com/NintendoAUNZ Over on X (Twitter), Nintendo has just posted the details of the last? Splatfest for Splatoon 3. It is a very special Splatfest with it being called the "Grand festival". For this, it seems all three idol groups are against each other taking one option each. The question being asked for this is "Which is the most important to you?". The three options are past (Squid Sisters), present (Off the Hook), or future (Deep Cut). The Splatfest will be available for 72 hours rather than the usual 48. It will start  Friday the 13th of September @ 01:00 am until Monday the 16th of September @ 00:59 am .  We don't know much about the fest itself but it's safe to assume it will have all the same things as a special Splatfest and more. In the trailer, we do get to see the three idol groups in special costumes, as well as hear a new collab song between the three idol groups. However, that's pre...
