What can we expect from this Nintendo Direct?
We already saw a glimpse of Mario Kart World during the Nintendo Switch 2 presentation a few weeks ago, so this Direct could focus on more details such as its game modes, items, open world, and some other surprises. It could also be an opportunity for Nintendo to clarify the pricing of its games, considering that Mario Kart World will come with an $80 price tag.
