the first wave of dlc has finally
released for mario kart 8 deluxe on the
nintendo switch and with this we get to
play some new mario kart tracks and if
you're a nintendo switch online
expansion pack member like myself that
means you get to do this 100 free but
maybe you turn on your mario kart 8
deluxe and you started playing it and
you started to realize every time i try
to play these tracks it tells me i have
to purchase it how come i'm not getting
it for free well today in this video
we're going to take you step by step and
show you how you can actually play these
for free because it's something that
they doesn't tell you you actually have
to go out of your way to do it and i
honestly didn't know how to do it at
first and it took me a second to figure
it out so i figured you know what i'll
make this video and help you guys out
too
hey guys rembrandt 20 back again and
today we're going to show you how to
access the new dlc tracks on mario kart
8 deluxe for the nintendo switch now
this may seem self-explanatory before
you start making fun of people in the
comments below saying how did you not
know how to do this honestly it took me
a second to figure it out too so i
figured you know what i'll make a video
because maybe someone else is having a
hard time figuring out as well so go
ahead and go to the single player mode
or whatever to get to the course
selection screen i'm just going to do a
versus race it doesn't matter what you
do here i'm just kind of showing you
this for a demo purpose we're going to
get the course selection screen and
you'll see what i'm talking about here
in just a second so it doesn't matter
what you pick just get to the course
selection screen and you can press the l
and r button or whatever
to cycle through the new track so you
only got two cups so far that's unlocked
they'll eventually start releasing more
as time progresses but right now we got
the golden dash cup and you got the
lucky cat cup um the rest of these will
eventually unlock as nintendo decides to
release the dlc hopefully
it's soon i guess it's going to happen
through you know the next year or so but
right here we got these two that you can
play right away so me i can click on
these and start playing it right now it
doesn't matter i can start playing this
but if you're having a hard time or
you're actually clicking on it and it's
giving you a message saying something
like you can't play this right now you
have to have like the nintendo switch
online plus membership and you're like
wait a minute i already have the
expansion pack how come it's not letting
me play this for free and you start
getting really upset and you're like i
don't get it i had the expansion plus
pack and it's still not letting me play
this well you actually have to close out
of this i don't know why they make you
do this you would think if you already
have if you're already a member you
shouldn't have to go through all these
hoops but you actually have to go to the
eshop believe it or not and i'll show
you what you gotta do you go to the
eshop you have to actually download it i
thought it was gonna automatically
download because i'm a nintendo switch
online expansion pack member but no as
you can see it's featured right here on
the main page go to mario kart 8 deluxe
booster course pass you're going to
actually have to click on it
and there's two options you can proceed
to purchase 24.99 for those people that
are not a member but as you can see i'm
a member so you'll have an option
yourself here it says nintendo switch
online plus expansion pack and you can
download this for free as long as you
know you're a member you can download
this for free so you are going to have
to click on that i already did i already
downloaded it and then you can play the
tracks i don't know why they don't
really tell you this but there you go so
you have to actually go to the e-shop
download this and then you get to play
the tracks i was over here like
feeling like an idiot like what's going
on here i know i'm a member of them it's
not let me play it well you got to go to
the eshop
you got to download it for free if
you're a member if not you can pay you
know 25 or whatever and you can play it
but that's that i know this may seem
like kind of a weird video like it's a
lot of people think this is
self-explanatory
but believe it or not there's a lot of
people out there that are actually
having problems with this so i figured
i'd just upload a video show you guys
what you got to do pretty much off right
now guys leave a comment below let me

lookout mario kart 8 deluxe live streams
