Mario Kart bonus disc in doubt.

Bah! Blame Bowser

Posted by Staff
Bah! We were speaking to a Nintendo official, off the record of course, outside the main show area at ECTS this year. As ever, we were rattling cages about the latest, hottest Nintendo news, which at the moment is arguably what, if anything, will be included as a bonus with Mario Kart: Double Dash.

The Nintendo employee, speaking off the record, said, “It will be more than likely be like the Zelda bonus disc, a re-make of the Nintendo 64 title,” in those exact words.

So after having a secret mini-party we posted the story. Surely this was proof of a re-make of MK64 for GameCube? Well, it should be, shouldn’t it…?

However, according to several reports emerging today, Nintendo America has scuppered our hopes and dreams, announcing that a re-make will not be included. Instead, a disc featuring several demos of upcoming titles will be available for those who pre-order the game. Boo!

So, accept our apologies if we got your hopes up. But when Nintendo says what it has said, what else should we do?

More on the Mario Kart: Double Dash bonus disc as it breaks.
