A new Mario Mart 8 Deluxe update has been rolled out by Nintendo, but it doesn’t seem to be a major one.

　　After not having received a new patch for more than two years, Nintendo just decided to deploy update 1.7.2 for the ever-popular kart game on its hybrid platform. The previous patch, update 1.7.1, was released back in January of 2019 and the game hasn’t been updated ever since.

　　However, those expecting something special will be disappointed to learn that this new minor update only addresses some encountered issues with tournament points and match history with friends being reset. Other than that, the update doesn’t seem to include any other changes.

　　For the sake of completeness, we’ve included the official release notes, albeit minimal, down below.
