Classic Game Room presents a CGR Undertow review of Mario Kart 8 for the Nintendo Wii U developed and published by Nintendo. Nintendo’s long-running racing series returns on the Wii U with one of its finest installments in years. Mario Kart 8 is an incredibly refined game, balancing old ideas with new ideas in a way that makes it one most distinct Mario Kart titles. Featuring a roster of 30 playable racers, Mario Kart 8 brings the Mushroom Kingdom’s biggest celebrities together for a no-holds-barred racing extravaganza. It’s like NASCAR with turtle shells. The game includes 16 new race tracks and 16 remixed tracks from prior Mario Kart games, and they’re some of the series’ most creative and gorgeous tracks to date. Highlights include Shy Guy Falls, Cloudtop Cruise and the beautiful new versions of Donut Plains 3 and Moo Moo Meadows. Mario Kart 8 offers a robust selection of local and online multiplayer options and is exclusive to the Wii U. This video review features video gameplay footage of Mario Kart 8 for the Nintendo Wii U and audio commentary from Classic Game Room's Derek.
