'Mario Kart 8 Deluxe' news: Game gets huge discount on Amazon

There is no doubt that "Mario Kart 8 Deluxe" is one of the most popular titles on Nintendo Switch. Interestingly, Amazon is giving a huge discount for gamers interested in acquiring the game.

According to BGR, Amazon is implementing a whopping 20 percent discount on every copy of "Mario Kart 8 Deluxe." They only catch, however, is that interested buyers should be a Prime subscriber. Fortunately, there is a workaround and this is by way of signing up for the company's free 30-day trial.

"Mario Kart 8 Deluxe" lets players race and battle with their friends. It offers a newly-revised battle mode, one that is totally different from its predecessors. Add to this the fact that new and returning battle courses are included. The title is currently playable only on Nintendo Switch.

"Mario Kart 8 Deluxe" allows players to locally play up to four-player multiplayer in 1080p resolution while playing the game in TV mode. The developers have added all the tracks found in the game's Wii U version. Not just that: the downloadable content (DLC) from the original game has also been added. This is really a great steal for the fans of the franchise.

In related news, Express reports that Nintendo has just added a total of four new titles for the console. These are "Minecraft: Nintendo Switch Edition," "Dark Witch Music Episode: Rudymical," "NBA Playgrounds" and "ACA NeoGeo Garou: Mark of the Wolves." These games are expected to be on par with "Mario Kart 8 Deluxe," in terms of sales.

Interestingly, "Minecraft: Nintendo Switch Edition" is the only title out of the four that is available for physical release. That is because the remaining three games will be accessible only via the Nintendo eShop. Regardless, there is no doubt that these games will further boost the popularity of the hybrid console.
