Then why haven't they released multiple mario karts every generation? We know the answer, because they would just compete against each other. And most people who bought the first one wouldn't bother with the second one because they already have the Switch Mario Kart. Mario Kart isn't gonna happen. Deal with it. Mario Kart 9 will probably be Switch 2 launch title. It makes no business sense for them to try to cannibalize their best selling game with a sequel on the same system (which they've never done) that would no doubt be very similar, rather than spend those resources making a different game that will sell on its own and not cut into the sales of their biggest seller. The only people who want Nintendo to completely change their Mario Kart strategy and release two Mario Karts on a single system are some of the Wii U owners who already had 8 on the Wii U. Needless to say thats a very small percentage of Switch owners and Mario Kart 8D owners.
Mario Kart 9 isn't happened on Switch. It would be a stupid decision and would be totally changing Mario Kart from a one per system series. There would be no point in releasing another mario kart for the same system. Not gonna happen. Nobody wants this. What would you rather have, another very similar mario kart that we already have on the system, or a brand new game? 99% of people would prefer a new game.

lol 8.5 million wii u owners had Mario Kart 8, 23 million have it on Switch, I’m sure most of those wii u owners probably have re-bought it on switch that’s nearly 37% of MK8D Owners wanting a sequel, that’s a small percentage?
I’d like a new mario kart at this point, Give me a new gimmick in it with new tracks, parts and characters etc. I’d buy it day one. I agree it seems unlikely Nintendo will want to cut the legs shorter but still it would be nice!

Not as nice as a new game that hasn't been put on Switch yet. And if they do release MK9 in 2020, that means we probably won't get MK10 (the proper sequel we deserve) on Switch 2 until 2026, halfway through it's life, which would be lame and kill hardware sales of Switch 2. Unless they just start releasing delux versions every 3 years and sequels every 6 years, which I really don't want them to do.
