Head to the starting line, Wave 6 is almost here! Eight additional courses and four new characters come to the final Wave of the #MarioKart 8 Deluxe – Booste...
My only complaint (other than I’ve always hated when they recycle maps from previous games) is that you need Internet connectivity to play these. That completely defeats the whole point of the Switch.
You don’t need internet connectivity to play these, unless you mean downloading them initially. I’m sure they’ll make an updated physical with these maps in it at some point too.
I definitely could not access them without Internet. This was after they had been downloaded and played. The error even said as much. Maybe they’ve changed that since? Hopefully…
Wait, what? Got a screenshot? Cos, let’s face it, the switch has terrible wifi, and I’m frequently not on network and can play offline fine and have never had any pop up like that.
I’m pretty sure I have the initial free booster tracks and I was able to play them solo offline just like any other course. It has been awhile though, I could be wrong.
Looks like they saw how rockstar does business.
48 courses that are truly remade rather than copy-pasted in (support MK8 features) for $25 doesn’t seem too bad to me.
Yeah, the amount of work that has gone into these for a one-time purchase of $25 is a pretty great deal.

If I put it in airplane mode, voila: (sorry for the crummy phone capture). You can still play the default courses, but this is complete bullshit.
Even if you purchase them directly instead of using the online pass? Guess I’ll have to check it for myself
Even with the online pass you can go a while between checking in, I play mk8 on planes pretty regularly
You can’t play them solo?

I stand corrected. I didnt think ninendo ever dropped prices of games. Major ones that is
They didn’t. It’s $25 for the 48 DLC courses. Base game is still $60 in the eshop.
Nope, you’re not corrected. The expansion tracks are $25, the game itself is still $60.
