Kezay Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 Target locations getting special Mario Kart 8 Deluxe makeovers So Nintendo and Target are teaming up to usher in the launch of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. So apparently, over 650 stores will receive "makeovers" to celebrate the event from decorating shopping carts to look like character karts from the game, having the area by the entrance doors play the game's theme and even decorating the ball shaped barricades that sit outside some stores to look like characters from the game. There's lots more information and pics at the link, but it's a pretty cool little thing they're doing. purple_beard and The Guardian Mew 2 Quote Link to comment
EH_STEVE Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 Caught this on my twitter feed, thought it was pretty amazing. Looks like Nintendo's Marketing division has woken the fuck up. Took the whole WiiU generation off. Quote Link to comment
luigitornado Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 There's going to be a lot of videos on youtube of people dressed like Mario characters racing carriages at Target stores. Kezay, AGES, The Guardian Mew and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment

Kezay Posted April 21, 2017 Author Share Posted April 21, 2017 That's actually kinda neat with how they decided to do that. 1 hour ago, luigitornado said: There's going to be a lot of videos on youtube of people dressed like Mario characters racing carriages at Target stores. Especially if they find the World of Nintendo aisle and start throwing plush koopa shells and bob ombs at each other XD luigitornado 1 Quote Link to comment

Fuzzer1 Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 That's pretty cool, especially since according to the info, it's the first time the shopping carts have been decorated. Quote Link to comment
The Guardian Mew Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 (edited) Though I don't have any Target store nearby, I love this promotion. Can't wait for the videos of people getting thrown out for racing shopping carts down the isles. Edited April 22, 2017 by Bark of the Wild Eevee purple_beard 1 Quote Link to comment

Dancing Mog Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 I doubt any Target near me will have this going on though I may get lucky. Quote Link to comment
Cinny Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 This is really cute. Our Target hasn't done it yet, but hopefully the transformation soon takes form. Will be nice to see! Quote Link to comment
