Bandai Namco have released a new trailer for Mario Kart Arcade GP DX which is coming to western arcades this year. The latest entry in the arcade series allows you to create fusion karts which sees you combine your powers with another player. You can check it out in the video embedded above.
Thanks, Jay
o3o …
Did I miss something here? Mario kart with pacman in again?
This was an Arcade game that was in Japan only at the time.
Now it’s going to get a release here in the West and it was actually the first game that Namco made with Nintendo.
“the first game that Namco made with Nintendo”
Smash Bros?
…. Look at the history kiddo, Mario Kart GP was released way before the Wii U, Smash Brothers 4 AND the Wii itself. Wow for a troll, I thought you’d actually do some research before trolling.
Guess not.
And for a copycat, you seem too sad to be taken seriously.
Dude, just don’t. You’re not me.
:(
It was released in the UK. I played myself near Aintree (just outside Liverpool).
What about Pacman Vs. on the Gamecube?
It’s made by Namco.
Running on an Arcade Machine by Namco.
Fair enough to include their own Characters once again and Players seem to accept that. °ワ°
Yeah. The game is actually made by Namco in junction with Nintendo as the publisher so they wanna throw in Pac-Man into the mix and who doesn’t like Pac-Man besides idiot haters and modern age brats who never heard of him? XP
Awesome things that should have made it into MK8… (SIGH)
Maybe we could see this as DLC or something. I’m not even sure in which country my closest non 90’s arcade machines are.
WFT this is better then Mario kart 8 and the graphics lool mk8 got pawned
Pwned*
Polo
OWNED*
I HATE PEOPLE THAT WRITE PWNED. (- _ -)
Such expensive Arcade Hardware is absolutely not comparable to Consoles.
I need a arcade
Wow, need glasses there mate because MK8 still beats this.
I know my glasses was dirty mate. Graphics sucks
No its doesn’t and the “real Stranga” dude above me is a copycat riding on my..you know what, pretending to be me.
Anyway, the visuals are as good as Double Dash..because its exactly like double dash but improved. And the copycat is right. You must check your glasses. XD
Damn straight
Ummm no, I have played this a lot. My friends and I did a countdown to MK8 and went to Dave & Busters and played it for an hour. It is a lot of fun a brings new ideas to the table, but it does not shake a stick at MK8’s beauty.
Graphics are not better but the Co-Op and the Fusion Karts…WTF didn’t Nintendo implement this in 8?! X( Co-Op would’ve replaced the Two-Man Karts from Double Dash just fine and the Fusion Karts, that would’ve made the gameplay kick ass 20x over.
Such missed opportunity for MK8. XP Oh well, maybe the 9th will bring these features to consoles.
Graphics and animations looks a little bit better than MK8 IMHO
Graphics don’t look anywhere near as good. MK8 looks better.
I kinda agree, definetly some cool features that will be welcomed in MK9 or Arcade DX WiiU Edition. ^_^
Game sucks another failure by Nintendo
Namco created it and it’s been very successful in Japan
Lol
Lots of Love?
Why?
Are you trying to come onto me?
Haha
And I created “Stranga” and have been successful. Stop acting like Sony and ripping me off please?
But you love it.
Lol.
Have you even played this game that you never had a chance to before? No? Then STFU.
Lol
You sucks ! Another failure from mother nature! -_-‘
Haha
I just played this game a few weeks ago in Oklahoma.
When I went to an arcade place in Daytona beach a couple years ago I got to play the first Mario Kart GP and it was very fun ^_^
Who else thinks that those fusion karts are gonna be a thing in the future?
Nintendo better implement those and Co-Op for MK9. XP I’m serious. Those features look boss.
Actually this has been out in the US in a limited form since about Feb/March where all Dave & Busters locations have had the game as a timed exclusive since then. It became available for other venues to pick up last month in June: http://arcadeheroes.com/2014/06/10/new-arcade-releases-mario-kart-arcade-gp-dx-rerave-plus-super-alpine-racer/
Fusion carts? Kind of like how Crash Tag Team Racing did? Funny cause that game wasnt very good….. alot of people said it was trying to rip off double dash.
It was still pretty fun though, but doesn’t compare at all to Double Dash.
I didn’t even know there were enough arcades still around to make new games for them.
There are dozens of new arcade games released a year. Websites like http://aurcade.com try and track locations, there are a few thousand out there in the US and you also have to remember bars/barcades, theme parks, movie theaters – pretty much anywhere there is a waiting area or an entertainment venue of some kind means there is a space for arcades
Anyone else annoyed by the announcer? Sounded like a tv commercial where they try to sell you something.that’s a rip off.
all mk arcade games have announcers commenting on the race
I wish console Mario Kart games would include courses from the arcade games as retro courses.
Amazing! http://clashofclanshelper.com/ – I got free Clash of Clans gems here! Get yous too in less than two minutes!! Recommended!(XR1GuRwId0)
Who’s ready for Mario Kart 9! Hehe just joking. I’ve played Mario Kart GP in the arcades, it was so fun and quite tense also! Rich colorful visuals and energetic feel to the game.
cool
Another thing copied from the crash banicoot kart series, whats next giving it a story mode
