On 10th December, a new &#8216;Green Shell All-You-Can-Throw&#8217; mode will be added to the game \u2013 and it does exactly what it says on the tin.<\/p>\n<p>In this new mode, players will be given an unlimited number of Green Shells to fire at their opponents. Item boxes can give players a bumper of sorts which offers a little bit of protection, but we imagine there&#8217;ll be an awful lot of stop-start shell smashing involved here.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"gallery\">\n<div class=\"col\"><a title=\"Mario Kart Arcade GP DX\" href=\"https:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/ffaceac32e6a3\/mario-kart-arcade-gp-dx.original.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/static.nintendolife.com\/blank.gif\" data-original=\"https:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/ffaceac32e6a3\/mario-kart-arcade-gp-dx.original.jpg\" alt=\"Mario Kart Arcade GP DX\"><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"col\"><a title=\"Mario Kart Arcade GP DX\" href=\"https:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/dcf638ff041b8\/mario-kart-arcade-gp-dx.original.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/static.nintendolife.com\/blank.gif\" data-original=\"https:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/dcf638ff041b8\/mario-kart-arcade-gp-dx.original.jpg\" alt=\"Mario Kart Arcade GP DX\"><\/a><\/div>\n<\/aside>\n<p>Elsewhere, Wario, who was previously an unlockable character only, will now be available to select at any time and as soon as you jump onto a machine.<\/p>\n<p><em>The things we&#8217;d do to have a set of Mario Kart arcade cabinets in the Nintendo Life office&#8230;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Let us know if you like the sound of this new Green Shell mode \u2013 and whether you&#8217;d like to see something similar in the next Mario Kart console game \u2013 in the comments below.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<p><em>Thanks to Greatsong for the tip!<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mario Kart Arcade GP DX, the current Mario Kart game playable in Japanese arcades, will be receiving an update next week which adds a new mode and a character tweak.
