Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Gamestop opens Mario Kart pre-orders, and gives release date.

They are just using this date as a reason to start pre-orders. It will probably be a summer release. That would be the best business move.

Is unlikely to release in April



Stores do this all the time for reasons already stated so it’s hardly surprising. Anyway, thinking it will be April 2nd is just wishful and unfounded.



Maybe mid or near end of April, but it's too soon to be early April...I'll still be obsessedwith Brawl and most likely won't get this immediately.

They should have put the release date as April 1st, then we would really know right? ;-p

Is Kart going to be a Worldwide release? A Japan first release? Have they said anything about that?




starcraft: "I and every PS3 fanboy alive are waiting for Versus more than FFXIII.
Me since the games were revealed, the fanboys since E3."

Skeeuk: "playstation 3 is the ultimate in gaming acceleration"

I'm thinking more around July. Nintendo will want to put out a game during those dry summer months.



My Games of 2011:

The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword

Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

Super Mario 3D Land

Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception

Way too early. Ninty cannot keep up with software production as it is.
