The mechanics on how Air Ride plays is pretty different than Mario Kart. Instead of just pressing A to go, your little star goes automatically but then when you hold A that starts to slow you down, and that’s how you are able to make turns. And then when you release A you get a little boost of speed.
That sounds weird, and it is a little, but it’s not just simply another kart racer. It feels much different to play.
I’m all in, baby.
I’m really excited for an official way to get TotK in 60fps. No, I don’t want to emulate. I still sometimes turn that game on to walk around and stumble upon stuff. It’s great. And with that app, I may actually try to get all the Korok seeds.

Then the number 2 should be just fine.
Looks like this links back to a reddit thread with a bunch of leak info:

While I didn’t hate the menus on those older systems, I’m happy they went with what we have in the switch right now - speed.
That said, the newer switch probably has enough horsepower to add a little bit of they wanted to. But I’d rather the menus simply be fast. Perhaps they can strike a good middle ground.
They can easily do both (have the joycons mouse and ability to use a regular mouse).
And maybe you want to play a mouse game and only have the switch with you. Boom, you have a mouse with you already.
The only reason everyone is whelmed is because of all the leaks.
Had no one known anything, we’d be talking about the bigger size, new joycons and such.
Since there are no surprises we are just confirming what we already know.
A thing I just thought of is that it’d be super cool if - by using the joy con as a mouse - they had a track creator mode where you could share custom tracks.
If you have a joy con handy, take it and place it on a mousepad and move it around. It feels surprisingly good in the hand.
How great would Mario Maker 3 be if you had a mouse input to place all the blocks and select items and stuff.
Or maybe even a track editor for the new Mario Kart! That’d be sweet. And with the mouse they could really let you shape tracks and add foliage easier.
TotK is something else. It’s so good.
