I bought DLC pack 1 and 2, but it says I've only pre-ordered and can't even play DLC pack 1 - Side view of young bearded content husband playing guitar for smiling wife in bedroom while resting after packing stuff into carton boxes before relocation

I just purchased DLC packs 1 and 2. I know that pack 2 doesn't release until May 2015, but pack 1 with Link should already be out. When we go to select Link or one of the other new characters, it brings up a screen saying that I only pre-ordered and won't let me start the race. Do I need to do something special here?



Best Answer

I resolved my own issue by turning off the Wii U (probably could have just exited the game) and then starting the game again. It then went through an update, after which the three characters were available for play.
