Wonder how they are going to handle the new tracks for online.

Only come up if everyone in the lobby has the dlc.
Kick people without the dlc if one is selected
Everyone can play online, but you have to buy the dlc to do time attack/cups/single race on new tracks.


I'm guessing it'll just play out normally but you just need to buy the DLC in order to use those characters.

My best guess would be that whenever you start Mario Kart 8, the game will scan the HDD for any DLC, if no DLC is found then you'd be put with a certain group of people. Same for those who do have DLC.

I believe the Yoshis and Shy Guys will be part of the Mercedes patch, and then accessible for use when you purchase both DLC. That way, even if you didn't purchase the DLC, you won't be limited to which races to join. For the tracks, karts, and other characters, I don't know. Perhaps they'll do they're doing with the Yoshis and Shy Guys. Put the characters and karts in patches to be released as each of those DLC gets released, and then just limit it by the tracks. Then again, that would make the idea that 8 tracks would be the 1GB and not the tracks, karts and characters together.

12 bucks for both ?! Nintendo just won the DLC race for me. Cheap DLC pack with that many content ? Nintendo just won that race.


This is how you do DLC right, actual content that's worth purchasing and, well has content worth purchasing. More courses, more characters, hell yeah! Now for them to fix the shitty battle mode....
