Pyro as Bill said:
Screw that. They can test MK9 on Switch 1 and Deluxe it with DLC for Switch 2. Mario Kart is so big now it needs to become Nintendo Kart. Zelda, 3D Mario and Animal Crossing have all hit new heights after being featured in Mario Kart. I think that's the way forward for MK now. Bi-annual DLC and/or subscription exclusive tracks. They could even offer to feature some 3rd party tracks in exchange for certain favours. MK8 showed how crap hardware held back a 50m selling game. If Switch 2 is a flop then so is MK9 (relative to it's potential). If they mess it up they can always reset with Mario Kart 10 on Switch 2 instead of MK9 Deluxe. |
Switch simply doesn't need another Mario Kart with how 8D is selling.
They're going to need heavy hitters to give Switch 2 the same kind of great first year that Switch 1 had, it'd do more good for them there, alongside Splatoon 3.
