Took me a moment to realise GCN Luigi's Mansion meant the Double Dash Battle Stage.

Sounds like new tracks for battle but what about for racing?

Seriously, they might as well being selling only a $360 launch bundle with Zelda, 'cause there is shit all else for launch.

If the only new tracks we get are Battle Mode courses I am going to be deeply disappointed

It doesn't mention any new race tracks. The ones listed all seem to be battle courses.
No. This: https://www.mariowiki.com/Luigi's_Mansion_(battle_course)
Was just about to say the same O.O

Wait, does that mean they fixed Battle Mode so it's, like, actually battle mode?
If you never owned Mario Kart 8 its a good deal. For those who have a wii u and mario kart ehhhh.
Looks like some new characters maybe 2 new cups and the made a good battle mode. Mario Kart 8 definitive edition i guess

Not a mod, just a bot.
It's Switch Conference Night!
We know you are very excited, and lots of news and announcements are taking place, but it's important that we be able to manage the flow of information here so people can quickly and easily see what's going on. As a result, we are locking threads for the following reasons:
- Thread is a duplicate of another thread. Don't worry, enough people will make threads about any announcement that you don't have to!
- Thread is missing key information in the OP. It's OK to wait a few seconds before making a thread if it means that you will have a clearer title and original post.
- Thread is a "5 second reaction". You have a lot of feelings built up about the Switch. That's OK. But you don't need to make a thread for every idle thought about what was not shown, or who was there, or if you think Nintendo will be bankrupt or victorious. You can discuss all of these things in relevant threads, or wait a little while until things slow down a bit.
- Thread is "Where was <Game X>?" We don't know. No one knows. If we knew, there'd be a thread about it.
- Fanfiction. Remember that a few years from now when you make a thread for dating advice, this will be in your thread creation history.
- Bumped an old thread. Wow you really owned the person who was wrong!!!!
Thanks!

It doesn't look the same though? And it looks like a regular track? Edit: Actually, I see a balloon :,(

Was expecting it at launch but I'll take it
Not saying Zelda isn't what most people want, but the whole "you'll play the one option we give you each quarter" has been Nintendo's problem for years now.

Yes. im not sure if based on that whether they're new battlemode only courses or actual tracks though

Glad they put battle mode back in.
Not everyone wants Zelda, and even if that were the case the launch lineup so far IS looking pretty pathetic. I thought that was the whole point of unifying their development groups, so we didn't have to deal with shit like this.
Is this a serious question? Of course there will be a 9.
Inklings are pretty cool... but hopefully you can change the skin color in this.
Makes little sense for them to do 9 on the same engine when they can just add more content to 8. I doubt we will see a completely new MK or Smash until Switch 2.
