Nintendo has updated its official E3 web-site with intriguing new Mario Kart: Double Dash details. Itâs been widely known that the game will support up to eight players, however how Nintendo planned to implement this caused a great deal of confusion amongst us gaming journos; online was first mentioned and then rapidly hushed out, talk of a LAN peripheral followed allowing up to 8 GameCubeâ to be linked and finally the suggestion of two players to every controller Micro Machines styleâ¦
In a sentence recently added to the Mario Kart: Double Dash page, Nintendo reveals:
âPack up to eight players into your living room and turn up the fun when you connect Nintendo GameCube systems via the Broadband adaptor.â

Weâll have the definite answer soonâ¦
