#WiiU warriors, rejoice!

You no longer need to hook up to @pretendo to play your favourites online, Nintendo has officially announced at 2am BST tomorrow, you will finally be able to play Splatoon 1 and #MarioKart8 tomorrow again online!

I'm planning to join in on a live stream tomorrow, probably around 7pm, I'll have more information on my main account if you want to join in with me (I'm currently using @experiencer).

It looks like to play online, you will need to probably download the 4.1.1 update for Mario Kart 8 (I'm purely going off of memory for version numbers) and the 2.0.13 update for Splatoon 1, they'll be released at the time stated at the beginning.

Are you excited to finally play them online for the first time in 5 months? Let us know in the replies below!
