100 karts drop onto an island...

Actually that would be awesome. Save it for Mario Kart 9, but do it Nintendo.

Apparently, Mario Kart 8 DLC is incoming. My money says Pauline and maybe boy and girl Octolings.

Is that a Wocket in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?

And so the long journey to Mario Kart becoming Super Smash Kart continues.

I have no complaints.

I think that's inevitably going to happen (there's a semi-credible leak going around that says Kirby is coming as DLC—check the Smash Bros. thread), but I hope the series keeps the Mario Kart branding. It's just too famous and popular.

While i'd like more DLC, I'd also like a hard confirmation of it first

Again, updates doesnt mean content >_>

Then why would Nintendo announce it and ask people to look forward to it if it wouldn't be content? What the sense?

Well it's not Battle Royale, but we can at least enjoy a brand new character.

So random thought: Ridley in Mario Kart.

Honestly my only hope for future DLC in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is that Bowser Castle 4 returns as a course, with the pipes being alternate paths you can take via zero gravity.

First images of Tour's beta.

Auto-accelerate.

Character unlock and Kart customization are gatcha.

Each character has their own special item.

Two laps.

Retro Courses (saw SNES Choco Land 2).

Looks like a mobile, watered down version of 8.

[up] Tweet's been deleted, though I did catch Dry Bowser. Hope they pull for reeeeeeally obscure characters for the gacha.
