Mario kart 8 DLC

So apparently a "Leaked" photo or should I say, PHOTOS, have been taking over the internet for nintendo fans that had them raging over their seats before e3. If you haven't seen them yet, here's your chance, the first photo shows you 5 new characters being playable on Mario kart 8. The characters are:

Birdo from the super mario™ series

Plessie from super mario 3D world™

Professor e.gadd from Luigi's Mansion™

Kamek from super mario™ series (This character was suppose to be playable in Mario kart 64 but was then later replaced after the beta with DK.)

And finally the monkey we all know and love, Diddy kong.

Not only characters were "leaked" but new battle modes too! The two new battle modes were "Shine thief" and "Bomb-omb blast." These 2 modes appeared in the 4th mario kart series, mario kart double dash. Nintendo did mentioned of bringing back some parts of gameplay from Mario kart double dash into the future so this makes sense. 

"3 reasons why this could be LEGIT."

1. On the bottom left corner of the battle selection mode screen, you can see the same exact thing from the TV to the gamepad.

2. The photo looks like it was taken at e3 since the room looks kind of purple and shows the "wii u" logo station on one of the pictures.

3. Nintendo announced a new thing called "amiibo" where you can add new figurines for new characters and etc. for many games in the future. One of those games they announced that you can use the figurines for is Mario Kart 8™. So maybe Nintendo will allow you to get new characters for this game by getting these cool little figurines in stores or maybe striaght from the eshop.

Your probably wondering why plessie was on the character selection screen, well if you played the previous Mario kart which was Mario kart 7™, Queen bee was a hugemuguos character then resized her to fit the kart, maybe they will resize Plessie the same way IF this is real.

E3 is over unfortunately and Nintendo has not announced anything about this DLC for Mario kart 8™, but that doesn't tell us to give up, there's still a chance to play as our favorite characters we all love and adore. We might have to wait until the holidays when Super Smash Bros.4 is being released, (The same day Amiibo is being released.) to see if nintendo will announce DLC for these special little figurines. And also, we must have DLC soon since Japan already had a DLC released for them by nintendo which was the Mercedes Benz car for free, you know nintendo, they don't do us dirty like that by just leaving us at the corner for not getting anything either but if all of this is fake, the person who made this did a fantastic job! Not saying this is real or fake but we're giving you clue of what could happen in the future, mmt signing out!
