Nintendo has released a new trailer for Mario Kart 8, which shows the recently announced B Dasher in motion.
The kart will be available in the Legend of Zelda x Mario Kart 8 DLC pack this November. The classic racer made its first appearance in 2005 in Mario Kart DS, and soon enough you'll be able to use it yourself in glorious HD.
Be sure to check out the trailer below.
Are you excited for the return of this iconic kart? What vehicle would you like to see announced next? Let us know in the comments section!

Nice, but where is link and new stages!?
I wonder what the retro stages will be
I hope each of these karts also comes with wheels or a glider, too. The more customization, the better. Especially if we could get some gliders with a third set of stats.
But there's only one specific thing I can say that I want to be in there. To coincide with Link and the Zelda track(s?) would be to complete the package with an Epona bike or ATV and either a Triforce or Kaepora Gaebora-themed glider.
No, make that three things: I also want Waluigi Pinball and Baby Park as retro tracks.
I love this kart. Maybe enough to swap out my bike......nah.
I would also love to see a Epona bike. So pumped for this, literally one of the 1st ever computer based item I have pre ordered I really want Delfino Square in the mix (again)
This Kart looks good, doubt it'll make me any better at MK8 though face palm.
Be interesting to find out what tracks are planned, if all retro or maybe a new track in the mix.
I want a SNES Mario Kart themed psuedo 3D Kart with a Game & Watch Driver.
Sexy! Very curious about what's coming next!
Nice vid but really just more of the same, another Mario kart in a Mario Kart game.
What I'ld like to know is when are we going to see the amiibo in action? amiibo are supposedly coming out Nov 21 w/ support for 5 games and MK8 is currently not only the only game out but the only game that even has a release date. And the only game we've actually seen any amiibo gameplay footage is SSB for U, not even SSB for 3DS. If Nintendo wants to sell these as NFC characters, and not just collector items this holiday, they need to show some game play.

A 5 minute trailer and only 1 game has shown gameplay.
@danjohnson141 Delfino sqaure would be so epic. Without doubt my all time favourite MK track. If it comes, I will find you.....
Well, it's a trailer...
I think this might be the most excited I have ever been about DLC
I will buy any and all DLC that is released for this game. When it's priced as well as it has been its worth it
With link in, get me epona as a vehicle
Epona and the Blooper Kart...
@G0dlike delfino square would be awesome, as would ngc baby park.
I really hope they bring back Luigi's Poltergust 4000 from Mario Kart DS.

Love that kart.
B-Dasher will always be a personal favourite of mine, so it's nice that we got to see it in action.
Hopefully I can save enough money so I can buy both Smash and the MK8 DLC.
I'm hoping for more 3DS courses. Rock Rock Mountain is a personal favorite. Anyone else wanna see more courses from MK7?
Also, I would love more courses from Double Dash and Wii. They only brought back one Wii course, and it's my most hated one of them all...
One thing I love about 7 though is that it brought back my four favorite Wii courses: Coconut Mall, Mushroom Gorge, Koopa Cape, and especially Maple Treeway. I mean what are the odds that all of my favorite Wii courses got brought back in one game? I love having those courses on a handheld Mario Kart.
And I know Maple Treeway was brought back in 7, but I would go nuts for an HD remaster of it in this, and so would my dad. That's his favorite course.
@Wimpey There's an F-zero themed track, so that's at least one new course in the mix.
I'd love to see the zucchini from MK7, but the B Dasher is pretty darn close to that. Course-wise, I'd love to see the original Mario Circuit from SNES. It would have to be made longer, of course, but that was my very first bit of MarioKart. That with an addition with flying would be really cool.
Nice to finally see a little of the new DLC in action, but when are we gonna see some of the new courses? :
@Giygas_95
I frickin' love Maple Treeway too! I was rather disappointed it wasn't in MK 8. Here's hoping it makes it into one of these DLC packs. I can only imagine how incredibly beautiful it would look running in MK 8's HD engine.
I think they should add items to the dlc, like bring back the ghost
I want them to bring back the dry bones tank.
@vio Mmm hm, here's hoping. I just kind of doubt it because it's already been featured in two Mario Kart games in a row. Three in a row seems very unlikely.
I'm buying this dlc on day one
Still one of my favorite karts.
Luigi isn't going to like getting green shelled like that.
I would really like a SNES D.K.Jr + kart for a future DLC.
B Dasher will be interesting, shame it wasn't a strong kart in MKDS.
Like stated above, Delfino square and baby baby park please ( and Epona bike )
I Believe Wario gold mine is one of the new retro stages.
Personally, I don't want retro courses to appear twice as a retro course if there are still ones from the same game that have yet to be a retro course. Quality of the courses don't matter.
There is only Wario Stadium from Mario Kart 64 left to be a retro course. Once they do that one, then any Mario Kart 64 course is open again to become a retro course in a new game. But preferably, the MK64 retro courses from Mario Kart DS should be used simply because Mario Kart DS is the oldest.
Here are the numbers of courses from each game I would like to see:
SNES = 1 + 1
N64 = 4 + 0
GBA = 1 + 1
GCN = 2 + 2
DS = 3 + 1
WII = 2 + 2
3DS = 3 + 1
The number on the left being the courses already in MK8. The number on the right being how many should be added to make up to a maximum of four each, but with only two for the SNES and GBA games.
We've seen a screenshot of a Excitebike themed course. And an F-Zero course, thats likely a new one, not a retro one.
Delfino Square returned for Wii and Baby Park returned for DS So they shouldn't be here as well.
Now, here's to hoping that they bring back Luigi's Poltergust kart from Mario Kart DS! That was easily one of my most used carts in that game.
Nice, its has a mean look from the back and name to boot. Cant wait people, cant wait.
