Mario Kart 8 for Nintendo Wii U

Mario Kart 8 for the Wii U is a high-speed, arcade-style kart racing game developed by Nintendo EAD and released worldwide in May 2014. As the eighth main installment in the franchise, it combines classic racing mechanics with Full HD graphics, dynamic track designs, and innovative zero-gravity physics.

• ‌Anti-Gravity Racing: Sections of tracks allow racers to drive vertically up walls and upside-down across ceilings. Bumping into other racers or special bumper posts in zero-gravity triggers a Spin Turbo speed boost.
• Returning & Expanded Mechanics: Integrates 12-player racing and motorbikes from Mario Kart Wii, alongside hang gliders, underwater driving, and deep vehicle customization from Mario Kart 7. All-Terrain Vehicles (ATVs) also debut as a new vehicle class.
• Vehicle Customization: Players collect coins during races to unlock custom vehicle parts, including different kart bodies, motorcycles, ATVs, wheels, and gliders.
• New Item Arsenal: Introduces game-changing items like the Boomerang Flower, Piranha Plant, Super Horn (which can destroy Blue Shells), and the Crazy Eight.
• Playable Roster: Features 36 base and unlockable characters, including Mario, Luigi, Peach, Bowser, and all seven of Bowser's Koopaling minions for the first time, plus crossover DLC characters like Link from The Legend of Zelda.
