There are a few hotly anticipated games coming to the Nintendo Switch this year, and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is obviously right near the top of the list. In fact, there’s pretty much no way you can have a Nintendo console without Mario Kart, so a giant void is about to be filled when it’s released in just over two weeks on April 28th. It’s well worth the asking price, as any Mario Kart fan will tell you, but there’s no reason to pay that much if you don’t have to.
Some quick highlights from the product page, not that you need them:
- Hit the road with the definitive version of Mario Kart 8 and play anytime, anywhere! Race your friends or battle them in a revised battle mode on new and returning battle courses.
- Play locally in up to 4-player multiplayer in 1080p while playing in TV Mode. Every track from the Wii U version, including DLC, makes a glorious return.
- Plus, the Inklings appear as all-new guest characters, along with returning favorites, such as King Boo, Dry Bones, and Bowser Jr.!
Don’t forget Prime subscribers can also preorder other hotly anticipated Nintendo Switch games on Amazon and save 20% on each one.
