In their latest episode, the Nintendo Minute team are seen unboxing the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Set. Unveiled during last month’s Nintendo Direct broadcast, the new bundle includes a Wii U Deluxe Set system, Mario Kart 8, a red Mario Wii Wheel and a red Mario Wii Remote Plus. The bundle will retail for $329.99 and will launch alongside Mario Kart 8 on May 30. In our Mario Kart 8 review, we applauded the upcoming racing game for its impressive visuals and addictive gameplay.

    1. Then again, the bundle costs and extra $30 and it includes a wheel, Wii remote, and the game. It would’ve costed around $400 if they were separate, so I’d say it’s a pretty good deal.

      1. you can also get ps3 and xbox360 for 300 dollaz.The ScamU is just a overpriced Last gen console with gimmicky Low end tablet and No games or 3rd party support.#WiiLikeToScamU#IwataIsAFraud#Exposed#SugMinKukReggie

        1. ThisEntireGenHasNoGames

          Ugh people still say this bullshit? Its not even good anymore. I used to think stuff like this was funny but now its just become retarded, this gen is so bad even the trolls are bad. smh

        2. No games? Ignoring Wii U’s current and upcoming games. Also ignoring for $300 MK8 as a bundle is a good deal. And lastly ignoring as if Wii U’s NFC isn’t interesting in upcoming tittles.

          At this point, the PS3 & the Xbox 360 are the best consoles to own even in 8th gen as far as Sony & Microsoft consoles is concerned, anyway. No wonder the sales for PS4 & XB1 is so low. This is why the PS3 took awhile to pick up because the PS2 was still getting supported. History repeats itself. It’s not like the PS4 & XB1 are that much more stronger than their predecessors, after all.

    2. With MK8 plus Mario themed Wii Remote and Wii Wheel for additional $30, $330 is fair for both us and Nintendo to make littl extra money.

      Stop being so cheap about Wii U being expensive and yet hypocritical about wanting to buy a more expensive Xbox One, a shittier DRM DVR box that can’t pull off 1080p without blowing up or PS4 with very limited games to choose from.

      1. Tallon Ridley XIII: Kalas

        I can’t remember who but one of the trolls here is actually listing the high price for the XB1 as a positive. xD

    3. The deal is already really good. You’re getting two games, the wii wheel and the game and the remote.

  1. i think the console should have had an mk8 logo or something. logos of the cups or items kind of like the mario ds that came out a few years ago. its an amazing deal if you dont have a wii u.

    1. I think the console should have been red. It’s like Nintendo thinks black and white are the only colors that exist.

      1. the Wiiu did not sell because its black and has no games because Wiiu is Poor on Hardware #exposed#32GigsLoLz#WiigotNoPowerForU

    1. Curious… My ps4 came with a faulty controller and my XB1 one had to be sent for repairs due to an optical drive failure. Yet the “cheap U” as you call it runs perfectly since day one.

      There is a point or two you could have made against Nintendo but quality of their products.. SORRY BUT NO.

    2. Ignoring that Nintendo’s hardware has good quality. Ignoring Wii U has not been recalled like 360.

    3. Plastic toy? At least it fucking works right out of the box. PS has them early launch hardware faults and Xbox always has defects that they keep repairing and recalling the consoles.

      So your logic fails again IceEatShit.

  2. I can’t believe how soon Mario Kart 8 will be in stores. And I can’t believe how broke I’m going to be afterwards. I’m hoping to get some of my money back after selling the digital promotion game code (if this really comes with one like I heard).

    1. digital promotion game code for Shovelware games that are 10 years old like most NintendoKiddos are.

          1. Yeah and we seeing it all over you, LOOK AT YOU NOW? TROLLING BADLY AND HARDCORE TOO, THE IDIOTCY IS SHOWING SOO MUCH…look at your own posts!!! I don’t even need to destroy you, you basically did it for me by tour own words!

          2. The only reason I could think of that would lead someone to troll is that they are so jealous of something that they can’t help but try to make it look worse. Take a deep breath, go outside and work on that inferiority complex buddy.

      1. At least that way we get a little bonus for buying their console and eshop software. What PS4 buyers get? Severely limited library and having to pay for another $50 for online features (copycatting Xbox Live). What you get for Xbox One? Fucking TV that everybody already has for generations and Microsoft constantly and financially anal fucks people’s wallets with pointless and failed Kinect, Pay wall and shit that they’re getting rid of super late instead of day one if Microsoft were smarter and caring for their fanbase.

  3. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

    The only 2 things I’m really annoyed with are:

    Why not 5 player mutliplayer?!

    Why does the gamepad shows EXACTLY the same thing as the tv screen no matter what…

    That’s just stupid…

      1. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

        Whatever they do they are still better than the Sonyans and obviously the pathetic Xbots…

  4. nintendo scamming nintendrones again. lucky i hav saved 120 for my powerful xbox 360. wii u last gen confirmed

      1. stfu nintenkiddy lol. funny how wii u has less 1080 60 than xbox one. iwata scamming drones again

    1. ThisEntireGenHasNoGames

      “powerful xbox 360” “last gen confirmed” based off that statement you’re still calling the wii u powerful…in the sense of…if 360 is powerful and is last gen…and wii u is “last gen” then…wouldn’t it still be powerful?

      1. Nintendo is my Blood

        Pointless arguing with him, you know the Wii U is powerful and next gen and that’s all that matters, his opinions don’t

          1. sasorideidaraobi returned to nap smoking dick! Well of course it came back when we left 100 comments from reviews MK8. Nintendo News quenches again from us quarrel about 200 comments. Let’s not here to comment!

          2. Tallon Ridley XIII: Kalas

            Everytime you use that term, you make yourself the true damage controller. Go back to youtube & stay there.

        1. Tallon Ridley XIII: Kalas

          He has a higher chance of being right about fairies & unicorns than Wii U being last gen, if you ask me. xD

    2. sasorideidaraobi returned to nap smoking dick! Well of course it came back when we left 100 comments from reviews MK8. Nintendo News again asks us to fight and leave about 200 comments. Let’s not here to comment! This page is against Nintendo! Sow the MK8 8/10, it was intentional that we commented. Let’s not here to comment!

    3. $300 for Wii U console plus another $30 for MK8 game, Wii Remote and Wii Wheel accessory which all together as separate charges would cost $140 more and with taxes, costs $470 at least.

      Yup. Nintendo is ripping off people alright..and only dumbfounded retards like you think of that.

      Go save and buy your faulty 360 console with old ass 2007 Naurto games with Pay wall and having to pay another $60 for free online play.

    4. Dude 120? Haven’t you been saving since last year? I know you’re just a kid but come on, go out and hustle, mow some lawns, put up a lemonade stand, do something worthwhile to get the things you want.

    5. Why would you just now get a console that came out in 2005 what have you been playing? They’re probably going to stop making good games on 360 soon anyway.

    6. Tallon Ridley XIII: Kalas

      xD You still on that bullshit, sasori? Just like your namesakes, you’re a idiot loser that thinks you can’t lose.
