In the Nintendo Switch reveal trailer, it showed small details about this game featuring what looked to be a possible Double Dash style mode and King Boo. I'll link the video here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xvcEJ9LIHz8

: A DLC pack 3 was indeed [https://twitter.com/NintendoEurope/status/738777797125144576 teased by NOE], it would have included N64 Kalimari Desert. We'll see if this will become indeed a 3rd DLC pack for Mario Kart 8.--[[User:Mister Wu|Mister Wu]] ([[User talk:Mister Wu|talk]]) 13:59, 20 October 2016 (EDT)

Are there any ideas why [[Mario Kart Stadium]]'s melody was reused as that for another course's ([[Mario Circuit (MK8)|Mario Circuit]]'s)? [[User:Torey|Torey]] ([[User talk:Torey|talk]]) 07:06, 2 July 2018 (EDT) [[User:Torey|Torey]] ([[User talk:Torey|talk]]) 07:06, 2 July 2018 (EDT)

:Because it's the game's main theme. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 07:18, 2 July 2018 (EDT)
::See also: Every other ''Mario Kart'' game. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 09:26, 2 July 2018 (EDT)
:::Actually, in this case they even used a jazzy rearrangement of the theme, while in the previous console and handhled Mario Kart games the tracks as a whole were reused. By the way, Mario Circuit is pretty much the main track of ''Mario Kart 8'', to the point that the logo of the game is based on its layout, so you can expect it to have the main theme of the game, that in this case is the theme used in Mario Kart Stadium.--[[User:Mister Wu|Mister Wu]] ([[User talk:Mister Wu|talk]]) 22:36, 2 July 2018 (EDT)
 
== Is the brake+accelerate boost (known from Mario Kart Wii) also possible in Mario Kart 8? ==
 
When holding the accelerator and brake simultaneously in Mario Kart Wii, you can turn on the spot. Additionally, you can get a blue flame after 3 seconds to boost the acceleration from the non-moving state. Does that exist in Mario Kart 8 and 8 Deluxe? --[[Special:Contributions/84.147.36.71|84.147.36.71]] 09:48, 6 October 2018 (EDT)
:This boost [[Mini-Turbo#Mario Kart Wii|is actually charged in just 75 frames]], and was removed in Mario Kart 8. You can still turn on the spot, although that works differently in Mario Kart 8 (it looks more like the wheels skidding in place, and indeed a skidding behavior has been added in Mario Kart 8, being most evident in 200cc).--[[User:Mister Wu|Mister Wu]] ([[User talk:Mister Wu|talk]]) 10:13, 6 October 2018 (EDT)

== Mario Kart Tour ==
 
Can we mention Mario Kart Tour in this article?  Mario Kart Tour takes a lot from this game, and I think it should be included in the "References in later games" section. --[[User:Jacklavin|Jacklavin]] ([[User talk:Jacklavin|talk]]) 11:35, May 23, 2020 (EDT)
 
== Course-Specific Differences ==
 
I was wondering if someone could convert the course-specific differences information into a collapsible table? (I'm no good at coding tables.) This way, the page doesn't need to become too long from the list of minute details. [[User:MarioComix|MarioComix]] ([[User talk:MarioComix|talk]]) 00:55, October 26, 2020 (EDT)
