This article describes the filesystems of the Wii U version of Mario Kart 8. For the Switch version, go to »Filesystem (Switch)«.
Main Game + Updates
This filesystem contains the base game, plus all downloadable updates for the game, which ended with v4.1. (Explanation about how the Wii U updates are applied and how we merged them here)
The base game of Mario Kart 8 has 3 different releases. Japanese (NTSC-J), American (NTSC-U), and European (PAL). All 3 base games contain identical files and filesystems, even including language files that can never normally be used on that version. Updates, however, only included the needed language for that specific release. The file system, file sizes, and file list will be based on the Japanese release, but it can be assumed that it is the same for the other releases unless otherwise noted.
