Nintendo today officially announced that its rumored special-edition Mario Kart 8 Wii U bundles will launch in the United Kingdom when the game is available May 30.

The special bundles will sell for £299.99 ($500) and come in Red Mario and Green Luigi varieties, both of which you can see in the image above. Both bundles include a 32GB system, a racing wheel, GamePad protector, Mario or Luigi hat, Wii Remote Plus, and a Mario Kart 8 game guide.
