Mario Kart World Fans Unhappy Over Nintendo Removing Feature

Fans of Mario Kart World on Nintendo Switch 2 are disappointed that a beloved feature, which was available in previous versions like Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, has been omitted from this new game. The reason for its absence isn’t clear, but many players who frequent the Mario Kart World Reddit page are expressing their disappointment about it being taken out. If you don’t participate in online play, you might not even notice that the feature is gone.

On the Mario Kart subreddit, players of Mario Kart World are expressing disappointment because Nintendo has eliminated the feature that allowed them to see their opponents’ countries. Previously, in lobbies for both Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, a player’s country flag was displayed next to their username.

It’s unclear if Nintendo intentionally omitted this feature or plans to include it post-launch. They haven’t given any information on the matter yet, and their silence may suggest a definitive choice. Regardless, fans are crossing their fingers for a solution down the line.

1. Comment 1: “I agree. It might seem trivial, but I found it quite fascinating to discover where people were from.”

2. Comment 2: “What’s even more frustrating is the title of this game. After all, it’s Mario Kart WORLD, why eliminate the global aspect of online play?”

A different Mario Kart World enthusiast shares their thoughts, saying: “I dislike how they scaled down an already minimal online feature set in version 8 even more.

It’s likely that most players don’t mind the removal, but given that it’s one of the hottest topics on the Mario Kart subreddit this week, it seems like quite a few dedicated fans have strong feelings about the change in policy.
