Mario Kart 8 for Wii U (Pre-Owned)
Mario Kart 8 on Wii U added anti-gravity racing to the series, flipping karts onto walls and ceilings across 32 tracks, and it is still a strong four-player couch game on the system.

Anti-gravity and 32 tracks
Nintendo released Mario Kart 8 for Wii U in 2014. The headline feature is anti-gravity, where blue panels turn your wheels sideways and let you drive up walls and upside down, and bumping other racers in those sections gives you a speed boost. The 32 tracks mix new courses like Mount Wario, Twisted Mansion, Electrodrome and Sweet Sweet Canyon with returning favorites such as Toad's Turnpike and Rainbow Road from the N64. The Koopalings join the roster for the first time.
Items, split screen and Mario Kart TV
New items include the Boomerang Flower, the Piranha Plant that snaps at racers and coins, the Crazy Eight and the Super Horn, which can knock away a Spiny Shell. Up to four players race on one TV in split screen, and one person can play on the GamePad screen alone. After a race, Mario Kart TV lets you watch and edit highlight reels. Online races on Wii U ended in 2024 when Nintendo shut down the service, so local play is how this disc is enjoyed today.
Before playing a pre-owned copy
This listing covers the game disc, and the photo is representative. Check the playing side of the disc for deep scratches and make sure it loads on your Wii U. The downloadable tracks and characters released later are digital content and are not on the disc. The case and manual are included only if the title says so, and controllers are separate.
Questions about this game
How does Mario Kart 8 play on Wii U?
You race karts, bikes and ATVs through 32 tracks in cups, time trials, versus races and a balloon battle mode. Gliding, underwater sections and anti-gravity stretches change how each course drives, and item use decides many close finishes.
Which controllers work, and does it need a Wii U?
It plays only on a Wii U console, not on a Wii or Nintendo Switch. You can race with the GamePad, a Wii U Pro Controller, a Wii Remote alone or with a Nunchuk, or a Wii Classic Controller. This North American disc needs a US Wii U.
Can I still race online?
No. Nintendo ended online play for Wii U games in April 2024, so Mario Kart 8 on Wii U is now a local game. Up to four players can still race together on one TV in split screen.
What is included?
The Mario Kart 8 game disc. A case, manual or any download codes are included only if the title says so. Downloadable tracks and characters are not on the disc, and the photo is representative.
