- A new one Mario Kart Start games for Switch 2 “is very much as opposed to Nintendo,” According to former Marketers
- Krysta Yang and Kit Ellis say it is “unconventional” compared to its “genre bend” of the launch of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild With the original switch
- They speculate on how Nintendo makes people buy the new Mario Kart and a new console in view of the success of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
Nintendo releases a new Mario Kart Games next to Switch 2 are “very much as opposed to” the company considering the significant “genre bend” launch of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild With the original switch, according to two previous marketing cords.
In the latest episode of the Kit & Krysta podcast, the couple discussed the upcoming release of the console and its apparent launch game, which was first teased during the Switch 2 message and decided that it is an “unconventional” decision for Nintendo (via Games Radar).
“This is very unlike Nintendo,” said Krysta Yang, “usually when they have a launch title as Breath of the WildFor example, it’s like this new game-breaking, genre-bending stuff that has never been seen before, and that’s what makes you want to buy the new hardware.
“But we are in kind of another situation with the new Mario Kart because of how successful Mario Kart 8 Deluxe has been honest because of how successful Mario Kart 8 Deluxe has been for Nintendo. “
Kit Ellis adds that the success of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is “underrated” and notes that the game has now sold 67.35 million copies, and do not count the 8.5 million copies sold at Wiiu before Deluxe were released in 2017.
This is equivalent to over 75 million copies that outsource the other two best-selling Switch games, Animal Crossing: New HorizonsAt with 20 million copies and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate with more than 30 million.
Despite these numbers, Yang asks: “How should Nintendo convince me to get the new Mario Kart? “And also spend $ 400 on a new console when there’s already a massively successful game out there.
This will be the first Mario Kart Games to be launched in 10 years, and Ellis speculates how the game may surpass its predecessor when it is presumably only played on the new Switch 2.
We will probably find out more about the next Mario Kart Play on April 2nd with the long awaited Nintendo Switch 2 Direct Showcase. Hopefully, the consignment will also provide a release date for the console as well as pre-order and price information.
Meanwhile, there will be a ‘regular’ Nintendo Direct today at. 7 PT / 10ASM ET / 14:00 GMT, which we cover live.
