Get Mario Kart 8 from Best Buy, get free gas

Are you gearing up for the launch of Mario Kart 8 on the Wii U next month? If so and you're a frequent driver, you can get yourself a quick bit of gas money if you pre-order the game from Best Buy. Yup, $10 off your next gas purchase can be yours if you drop a few bucks down on Nintendo's most hotly anticipated game of the next few months.

While you may want to wait until Nintendo announces its Mario Kart 8 Wii U bundle if you don't have the console already, if you do, Best Buy's deal is about the best at the moment. Amazon has an offer for a headset discount and Target is giving away a $5 gift card with it, but this one is a coupon for money off your next gas purchase. You can use it at any gas station that accepts Mastercard, so that's pretty much all of them.

Mario Kart 8 will be launching exclusively on the Wii U on May 30 with Nintendo no doubt hoping that it will shift a few systems. Alongside Super Smash Bros which is coming this fall, Mario Kart 8 is one of the biggest launches of the year for the Japanese game maker and could potentially help turn the life of the Wii U around if it sells enough consoles off the back off its exclusivity.

So what do you guys think of this deal? Is it a good one? And are any of you planning on getting a Wii U just for Mario Kart? Let us know below.
