Mario Kart DS Now Available On Wii U Virtual Console

The Nintendo DS Virtual Console Wii U resurgence continues with the release of Mario Kart DS.

Both Nintendo 64 and DS games have been making their way to the console with Donkey Kong 64, WarioWare: Touched, and Yoshi Touch & Go releasing in the last few weeks. Paper Mario releases on Thursday, April 30 for the Wii U, followed by a number of Mega Man games from Capcom.

Our Take
I really like getting these games for Virtual Console, especially Nintendo 64 games, but I wish the DS games were also coming to 3DS. I realize you can still play the DS cartridges in the 3DS, but it would be nice to have them available digitally as well.
