Nintendo UK may have jumped the gun by putting up the Mario Kart 8 DLC product page on their official webstore but that didn’t stop people from pre-ordering it, or trying too. The product page now says that it’s sold out. Whether that’s because fans decided to purchase it in their droves, or Nintendo UK realised the product page shouldn’t have been up remains to be seen. The first DLC pack comes in November and will cost £7.00 and includes three characters, Tanooki Mario, Cat Peach, Link, 8 courses and four vehicles.
Thanks, Cris
First
Congratulations
That’s pretty crazy if this AOC actually sold out already! :O
I’m just wondering about the info for the U.S.
**Nintendo Direct SOON?!!**
We’ll get it for sure but it’ll probably cost like $9.99 :D so stoked for it.
We will have one soon sure, and you know why? Nintendo wants our minds off the Smash leaks. What was here yesterday is replaced by tomorrow. ;)
It took me a while but here’s a gif I made! :p

That’s awesome great work
I find it hard to believe that DLC can sell out, so I think it’s safe to say the page should not have been on the site yet.
Yeah, it’s digital!
I get the feeling that nintendo was getting ready to stream another direct with big smash and mario kart news and that these leaks completely killed it. I still think the smash leaks are fake though, or alternate skins for existing characters

congratulations, have a baguette courtesy of Jigglypuff.
mmmmm bread.
LINK?!
Can’t wait. Guessing we’re getting a Nintendo Direct soon, with the announcements!
So gooooooD
Where dark cock rider with his anti dlc rants?
Shut up your not helping
Weak dlc on the weak game on the wiik u
You must make your mommy proud with such weak troll bait. Go crawl back under your bridge.
Better than any DLC on the PS4 console. Oh scratch that, you don’t even have any games.
Stop. XD
Boom. XD His troll world explodes and burns.
LOL!
Aww, how cute; the little troll is salty that he was wrong.
Someone take a picture for posterity; this guy’s going in the Hall of Shame.:P
How much does it cost to buy “fair item balancing” for this monstrosity of a game? That’s a DLC I would take GREAT interest in.
X 1 MILLION
Stoopid poeple to mhuch stoopid poeple. Toodles!
They should just patch out that stupid coin.
I actually like the coin, and the new item system too… It makes holding first place harder, giving more variation and more challenge!
i dont get how your opponent getting triple red shells is challenge
XD
Frantic Mode. You’re welcome.
Frantic mode is awesome.
You mean, “I suck and can’t win without the items helping me”
Its not that the item balance is broken like COD’s own fuck up mess when it comes to balance issues, but the item randomizer needs a little tweak and call it a day.
Cool. Now, i want an official word from Nintendo of America.
Europe exclusive DLC, so nope!
How terrible wouldn’t that be?!
Awesome, can’t wait, now please add Bowser Jr And Diddy Kong…
They can leave Diddy out if the Diddy Kong Racing 2 rumor is true.
But what if it’s not…Anyway, what other character would you wish to see???:)
Let’s hope it is
You read my mind!
How can DLC be sold out? Or do they mean the game? Lol.
the DLC was available for preorder
Nintendo’s networks go to hell-in-a-handbasket everytime something big happens. This is normal. eShop is totally fucked up right now too. This is normal…
That said, I’m pretty fucking stoked. This DLC may have just redeemed Mario Kart in my eyes. :)
They couldnt fit any more money in the bank
I think this is so stupid but I love the way they look HD animal crossing soon I hope
My Hype~! Where’d it go~! D:
I just found out that it was announced in Europe, and the pricing is in Europe too~! :( So, I’ll just have to wait til the North American Nintendo company to actually start believing a little more in this DLC. owo
It looks real though…….but I wish dates of it releasing in America are announced soon!
OH! And, how are DLCs sold out? I thought they were downloadable content…how does that stuff run out? Don’t tell me that downloadable games get sold out as well? o-o
(I sound so dumb right now. xD)
This is crazy! I’m pre ordering the DLC as soon as its available again!!
I don’t understand…how can DLC be sold out exactly? haha
great dlc. tanoki mario and cat peach are the only flaws.
If they are alternate costumes, then I’m cool with it. But the metals are a waste and should be changed as alternate costumes.
i bought them to see if i could get the shyguy/yoshi costumes early lol
Let us know if you do get them early. I’m curious to see if they take up half the character select screen or are just changed with the press of a button from the main Red/ Green ones.
how can dlc be sold out an I don’t really get how u can preorder a download what is it available an hour earlier for you or what?
Tanooki Mario gets a yes from me since it’s the best Mario Power Up in history.
completely agree :D
Well that was fast as hell.
Wait what? How can you sell out of DLC?
I believe it says “sold out” ince a lot of people was trying to purchase it, not because they actually ran out of “virtual copies”…
relax people… we still have to wait till November, oh and also, do you HONESTLY believe this will be Europe exclusive? c’mon guys…
Exactly my thoughts. No way they would go through that effort and leave it in one region, and they know people would tear down the NOA building if we didn’t get it lol
Oh you better believe it. I’d use 200-300 bucks of my own money to take a trip to NOA’s HQ & beat the shit out of people. I might end up in jail but it will be worth it if they denied us this DLC. I want my mother fucking Link racer! lol
hey dude do you have Mario Kart 8? either way what’s your NNID? Had to go all the here to reply to you cause I’m not sure if you can send a private message, but yea lol
Ridley X3
I can’t accept it yet, though. My Gamepad is dead & I’m waiting for my new charger that I ordered from Nintendo’s online store to come.
true that I’ll go add you right now thanks dude
A few months ago most of you morons were against MK8 getting any DLC which it desperately needs, but now you’re all excited for it. Typical Nintendo fans…
Nobody was against Mario Kart DLC. Lol.
The imbecile formerly known as sasori is against. as a matter of fact he’s against everything about mario kart 8.
he’s flip fapping again saying “if it’s cheap or free maybe i’ll get it”, when he said a lot of times that he hates Mario Kart 8.
Right now, that little self-racist bitch is in hardcore damage control by pretending to like anything. Nintendo now after his last account got banned for that insulting MLK comment. So basically, he’s just a degenerate pussy with no sense of life or intelligence.
No dumbass. Its everyone else no matter what system or game, thinks Mercedes DLC is stupid which Ubishit opened its own mouth about it too. So basically anyone was complaining not just that very little Nintendo fans you moron.
Typical hypocrite fools…
>.< You apparently were reading the wrong fan comments.
Sasori Aizen is BUTTHURT!!!!

I wonder who Nintendo will fire next? After this leak, I almost believe the Smash one is true too. :P
Still, I’m excited about this DLC, it’ll make me want to play MK8 again. Link still feels out of place to me though. :3
So 3 marios and 3 peachs? And Link? I can’t believe it. He needs epona not no car or bike
Four, regular, metal forms, baby forms, and the new cat and tanooki
FREAKIN PSYCHED!!!
Awesome..awesome..wow
I wonder when Nintendo fires the entire Nintendo UK staff for this leak…
Damn. Within mere minutes to hours, the DLC is completely freshed out? XD This is how you do DLCs right people. Never before I see any particular gaming group be this dedicated and hyped for DLC, not even COD with its overpriced packs. ^_^ MK8 is on a row man.
Charge me for an update with fair items no matter what place your in(completely random for all), with anti aliasing for no weirdly jagged lines, fake item boxes, ability to hold 2 items at once(when dragging one behind) and a non shit battle mode and I´ll pay. Couldn’t care less about cart mods or characters.
This is fucking amazing. Great job Nintendo.
Magnificent, Nintendo Give-me strength! !!
If this doesn’t come to the US, Nintendo of America beware! I’m coming to fucking burn you all down to the ground! D:<
Don’t FUCK with a Zelda fan that wants to play as Link on another game he loves!
I can’t here you I’m too busy watching how much Link sucks at mario kart
*thumbs up* Good for you.
How a DLC can actually sold out? Its digital
I think it was put up before it was supposed to be available. Think about it. Wouldn’t they have made an announcement on direct or something before just putting it up for pre order?
