Anyone know if you can play 5 players with 2 switches? For example:

- (NS 1) 4 Players + (NS 2) 1 player
Or
- (NS 1) 3 Players + (NS 2) 2 Players

Well, on WiiU you could only play with 2 players online on one console, so I'd assume it'd be the same for the Switch. So limit to 2 per console for online multiplayer, though it might not be the same for Deluxe, and I don't know if you'd be able to do local wireless with 2 players on one switch either.

Online multiplayer is indeed 2 players from a single switch into a 12 player race. Sounds the same as the Wii U online exactly.
