Nintendo releases reconfigured Wii U Mario Kart 8 bundle for $299.99

Nintendo today kinda snuck out a brand new $299 Wii U Deluxe bundle configuration that includes a pre-installed digital copy of Mario Kart 8 and vouchers to download both content packs.

Just in time for the release of Super Mario Maker of course!

Check out the press release below.

A new ongoing configuration of the Wii U console that includes a pre-installed version of the Mario Kart 8 game as well as a Nintendo eShop download card for the two Mario Kart 8 DLC packs is now on sale in retail stores across the country. The console is available at a suggested retail price of $299.99.

Later this week, on the 11th of September, Nintendo will launch Super Mario Maker for Wii U. Using the Wii U GamePad controller, players can quickly and easily create their own original Super Mario Bros. levels using items, enemies, graphical styles and even power-ups from four classic Mario games. These levels can be easily uploaded online to share with players all over the world. Game concepts that were never possible before in a Super Mario Bros. game are now possible in Super Mario Maker ? and players are in control of it all.
