New Nintendo Switch 2 Leak Teases Mario Kart Fans

As a die-hard Mario Kart fan with over two decades worth of racing memories under my belt, I can’t help but get excited about the latest Nintendo Switch 2 leak that seems to hint at a potential Mario Kart release. The idea of a steering wheel accessory reminiscent of the Wii era has me feeling all sorts of nostalgic and hopeful for what’s to come.

Online leaks about the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 hint at its potential release, stirring excitement among Mario Kart enthusiasts. This is the second such leak to generate buzz among these fans. Earlier this month, a reputable Nintendo source indicated that a fresh Mario Kart game might not debut alongside the Nintendo Switch 2 in 2022, but rather sometime in 2025. However, recent leaks may indicate something different.

This month, numerous leaks concerning the anticipated Nintendo Switch 2 have been attributed to manufacturers of its associated accessories. These leaks encompass the Nintendo Switch 2 Pro Controller and even an unexpected steering wheel accessory, a feature that Nintendo enthusiasts haven’t encountered since the Wii era.

The accessory is quite basic – it’s essentially a plastic steering wheel, similar to the Wii version, designed to accommodate a Joy-Con. This design echoes its predecessor, where gamers would insert a Wii Remote. However, one might wonder about the racing games that Nintendo is planning for the Switch 2, as they seem to be developing this specific accessory. It seems plausible that a new Mario Kart game could be in the pipeline, given the connection between this peripheral and the popular franchise. Additionally, if this accessory is scheduled for the release of the Nintendo Switch 2, it may hint at the possibility of Mario Kart also being available at launch.

It’s quite possible this information lends credence to the speculations about a new Mario Kart game. In essence, it appears that such a game is likely for Nintendo Switch 2, and could drop at its launch or around that time, considering the rumored release of the console is anticipated in the first half of 2025.

All of that said, take everything here with a grain of salt. Right now, we have nothing more than rumors and leaks. None of this is official information nor has it attracted any type of comment from Nintendo. Considering Nintendo has not commented on a single Nintendo Switch 2 rumor, we do not suspect this will change. In fact, it has a pretty strict “no comment” policy on not just all Nintendo Switch 2 rumors, but any rumors involving it. If it breaks this policy and does provide a comment though, we will be sure to update the story accordingly.
