Mario Kart 8 starts its engines on Wii U this May
Mario Kart 8, announced during E3 last year, is the latest in Nintendo's long-running arcade racing series. This new installment includes a gravity-defying mechanic that lets racers ride along walls.
Last week, Nintendo had to slash financial forecasts in light of weak Wii U sales. Originally the company had projected Wii U sales to reach a total of 9 million from March 2013 to March 2014. Nintendo now anticipates Wii U shipments will reach 2.8 million in that timeframe.

Mortar In my opinion Mario Kart was the only game worth getting on the Ninteno Wii, therefore it may be helpful for the sales of the Wii U, whether they add a Mario Kart Wii U bundle or what.
A Wii U bundle now that would be a really neat idea. They could do the whole console case in a custom shell with custom less and custom gamepad and controller. And of course they would have to include the Mario Kart. I would be very interested in this if they did it for a reasonable price.
