[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!

[Thoughts] Will Tears of the Kingdom have DLC?

  DLC for Tears of the kingdom could happen but I don't think it's likely Source: Author's edit I want to start off by saying I do not think this game needs DLC at all, though it would be welcome. Breath of the Wild had an expansion pass with 3 waves of content. Looking at the contents of that could give us an idea about what a Tears of the Kingdom expansion pass could look like. The first wave (Expansion pass purchase bonus) was available at the games launch and included the following: - 3 new treasure chests This was a very small wave featuring 3 chests of goodies. The biggest thing from this was a Nintendo Switch shirt link could wear. It was a nice little extra to start the game off with but definitely not the defining content of the pass. Moving on, The second wave (DLC pack 1) offered a lot more in terms of content, with it offering these following things: - Trail of the Sword - Master mode - Heroes path mode.  This wave offered many things to test the players skill...

[Thoughts] Post Game Content Is Awesome!

Post game content is something I greatly  appreciate in games ~Intro ~ Many games over the years have included post game content, it's a way to give more content to players who really enjoyed their time with the main game and were left wanting a little more. Sometimes it is in the form of a few bonus missions, while other times epilogue stories can happen. I will now give some examples of good post game content and discuss what makes them good. ~Dark  Chronicle~ The post game for this game is quite big. After the main story you follow the main character on another small adventure to a place called the Zelmite Mine. This mysterious mine is huge, forming the biggest dungeon in the game by quite a bit. This Dungeon even has multiple mini bosses, one of which being fairly important to the narrative. While the dungeon does require a little bit of grinding to be able to get through it, it isn't too bad and I never found myself having...
