Nintendo has released a holiday commercial advertising the Wii U and the applauded exclusive Mario Kart 8.

The commercial is recognizably Nintendo complete with a happy family enjoying their new Wii U. I find it a little unfortunate that it doesn't include footage of any of the console's other exclusives, but hopefully the ad's message is effective and helps to get more Wii Us in homes.

Check it out below.
