Mario Kart Double Dash Gets Turbo Boost
SuperRob writes "Planet GameCube apparently has an exclusive (until ECTS, that is) on the post-E3 changes to Nintendo's Mario Kart: Double Dash for GameCube. Notable updates are weapons specific to each character, a new battle mode, and a huge speed increase (the top complaint about the game from E3)." There's more info at fan site Mario Kart Central, which has even started mapping the new game tracks for this keenly-awaited sequel before release - it's currently due in America on November 17th.
What was the top selling game for the N64? Not Mario. Not even Zelda. It was Mario Kart. Back in my college days, I knew people who picked up an N64 just to play Mario Kart. Needless to say, this is my most anticipated for the Gamecube.
