Today we take a look at Mario Kart 8! The WiiU running the game at 720p and then using the mClassic HDMI add-on to upscale to 1080p. You can see in the comparison video the difference mClassic makes for these older games.
Mario Kart 8 is the 8th installment of the Mario Kart series, for the Wii U console.
The gameplay includes thirty-two circuits (sixteen brand new ones and sixteen retro ones) on which the characters race riding a variety of vehicles like the returning motorcycles from Mario Kart Wii or the karts, which can be customized.
