Mario Kart 8 Premium Pack Announced In Europe

The Mario Kart 8 Premium Pack is touted to be the best Wii U bundle yet, where it is tipped to roll out later this May as it is accompanied by the game, delivering some mad karting action along the way. The Premium Pack will feature a Deluxe Edition of the Wii U console as well as a physical copy of the kart-racing game, which should go down well with those who want games to stick to its traditional format.

Other than that, the good news does not stop here, as there will be a Wii Remote that is based on Yoshi, the friendly dinosaur friend of Mario who has quite the tongue. Yoshi’s green and orange controller will arrive on the market just as when Mario Kart 8 is released, similar to how the Princess Peach pink Wiimote was unveiled in the prior week. There has been no official mention on pricing details for either, but chances are they would cost in the same region as that of the other Wiimote Plus devices at £46.99 a pop.

For those of us living in North America, some patience might be required, since we too, await with bated breath that there will be a release of this Premium Pack on our shores.
