If you don't think 16 new courses for 11.99 US $ is a good deal (along with six characters and two more vehicles) then I'm happy to make you realize it can be with some math problems.

Normally Mario Kart 8 costs 59.99 US $ for 32 courses (16 Nitro and 16 Retro). If we calculate the cost per track, it would be around 1.8749 or $1.87 per track. However, if you pay 11.99 US $ for 16 more tracks, the cost per track now decreases to 1.4995 or 1.5 US $ per track. Of course the game will now cost $71.98 US $ (plus tax if you bought in store or get taxed for digital software in your state) but if you really want the most tracks in your game for a good price per track, you would want to buy the Mario Kart 8 dlc bundle for 11.99 US $.

Unfortunately, I'm not good with exchange rates for other currency so someone else will have to do a different thread for those.

Does this mathematical reason show why Mario Kart dlc bundle is a good deal?


Its obviously worth 12 bucks BUT you forget something.  The game does not only consist of tracks but also of an engine etc. The engine is done already and likely paid with the release of MK8 that engine should  not be considered in the pricing of something that comes later  IMO.

Developing an engine costs much more than just optimizing it or adding some little things to the game like new skybox new texture etc.

 MK8 "dlc" is one of the best 3 ones available in terms of value but its not really DLC (in its current meaning.  In its original meaning it is tho)  even Nintendo calls it addons.

it is in no way 50% extra game for 12 bucks or well even 30% extra game for 12 bucks but its def worth 12 bucks.
