    Hm, Mario Kart 9 seems to look pretty similar to MK8. I had hoped for a new art direction / style.

        Even if it didn’t, so you really think that Nintendo won’t make Mario cart 9?

        It’s doesn’t say Mario Kart 9 but that does look like new character models to me. I’m expecting them to drop the numbering system and go back to subtitles anyway though.

        I keep hoping for Mario Kart Ultimate with every retro track, but I know I’m just setting myself up for disappointment.

      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.

      I made this FOSS template for easy reuse.

      def describe_nintendo_creativity(nintendo_game_name, new_version_number):
          print(
              f"Hm, {nintendo_game_name} {new_version_number} seems to look pretty similar " 
              f"to {nintendo_game_name} {new_version_number - 1}."
          )
      
      describe_nintendo_creativity("Mario Kart", 9)
      describe_nintendo_creativity("Pokemon", 21)
