The technological innovation on display at SXSW in Austin, Texas this year includes a working Mario Kart experience. It’s not some virtual thing, but a track with four Mario Karts that you can race around with friends. It’s part of a joint effort between Penzoil, promoting an upcoming oil made out of natural gas, and Nintendo, promoting MarioKart 8. Anyone can play, but you have to pass a Breathalyzer first so make sure you show up before you hit the party circuit.
