How did Cow become part of Mario Kart World? Pure Nintendo Podcast E113

This week on the Pure Nintendo Podcast, Jemma, Kirk, and Trev discuss the latest Mario Kart World news, including the origins of Cow.

Last week, we delved into the Switch 2 and which current games are receiving enhanced versions especially for Nintendo’s new hybrid console.

This week, we continue counting down to the Switch 2 – now merely 10 days away – and take an especially long look at Mario Kart World. We begin by breaking down the latest intel on the upcoming Mario Kart World, delving into aspects such as how the game came into development, how Cow became a character, and how food become part of the gameplay. It’s an interesting look at one of the year’s biggest games, and it only amplifies our excitement!

There’s other Mario Kart news in the mix for existing titles (have we just seen the final Mario Kart 8 Deluxe update?) plus we talk about the latest additions to Switch Online in the form of four Game Boy games. There’s even a new Switch 2 game announcement that confirms a specific feature, plus we take a look at the games we’re playing and reviewing this week.
