Mario Kart 8

Gaming giant Nintendo has returned to profitability this quarter thanks to strong sales of the blockbuster hit Mario Kart 8 for the Wii U.

Mario Kart 8, already the best game in the series and one of the only reasons to get the Wii U, is about to get a little better.

It appears Nintendo is targeting gameplay footage of Mario Kart 8 on YouTube to have ads placed on them, generating revenue for the Japanese firm.
