Will Mario Kart 8 feature voice chat? Right now at least, the answer seems to be “no”.

Mario Kart 8 already has a listing up on the eShop. Online multiplayer, leaderboards, and Miiverse are all included in the “Supports Online Play” sub-category. Voice chat, however, is nowhere to be found. Typically, “Game Chat” is listed if a particular game supports the feature.

This isn’t exactly an official confirmation from Nintendo, though right now I wouldn’t expect the functionality to be included.

Although there hasn’t been an official announcement yet, it’s safe to say that Tomodachi Collection is heading west. There have been plenty of signs (and straight up evidence, like this survey) pointing to an overseas release.

When Tomodachi Collection does launch in the west, it may carry the name “Tomodachi Life” based on a listing from Walmart Mexico. Nintendo did recently trademark that very name, so that would certainly make sense!

“Radio Shopping” is the latest feature to be added to Band Brothers P in Japan. Players can purchase special songs and vocaloid characters, and Nintendo has kicked things off with medleys for Fire Emblem Awakening, Super Mario and The Legend of Zelda. Each one of these songs come with special background videos.
