Mario Kart 8 - more details on characters, controls and the map

GN Version 4.0
The following information comes from Nintendo America spokesman Hector Solis.

- twelve playable characters
- includes Wario and Toadette
- motion controls or button controls
- world map is no longer shown on the TV screen
- this has been moved to the GamePad

I have a feeling there will be more than 12 characters in the game. Nintendo isn't going to come out and talk about secret characters!
