Nintendo has released new downloadable content for their cute racing game, Mario Kart Wii. Taking some inspiration from another title in the Mario series, Super Mario Galaxy, the downloadable content they've put up has players fighting in the Galaxy Arena.

The Galaxy Arena is a circular, barrier-less ring set in outer space that carries some very straightforward gameplay objectives. In the Galaxy Arena DLC, you've got to push out Spiky Topmen as quickly as possible. Four of them, to be exact.

This downloadable stage is part of a new tournament , which means it's only accessible in tournament mode. It's some fun content, to be sure, though it's a shame that it couldn't be implemented in multiplayer. Still, when it comes to Mario Karting, we'll take what we can get. In the meantime, feel free to check out a YouTube video we found of the tournament in action. Enjoy!
