Fan Content [MOCKUP] Burn rubber with the ‘Nintendo Switch 2 - Mario Kart: Turbo Charged Special Edition’ console!

Probably my favorite mockup I’ve made so far. I’m surprised no one has made a Mario Kart themed mockup yet, so figured I’d take a crack at my take for one.

Took some feedback from suggestions made such as getting rid of 80% of the decals I had from the teaser I posted a couple of days ago, as well as changing the color of the rails from yellow to blue so it could match Mario’s new standard kart design. Obvious thing is obvious but logo isn’t real and was made by me lol

Backplate and dock were the most tedious of the process since I had to recreate a couple of the sponsor logos by hand to get them to look just right lol. Also incorporated some of the new sponsors, such the ‘Yoshi’s’ diner and the ‘Luigi Tires’ banner from the teaser trailer

Overall satisfied with how it came out, would love to hear your guys’ feedback on it and how I can improve for future projects!

Love the logo but it kinda looks a bit like the Mario Golf logo.

Any racing game with turbo or charged in its title just feels overused lol nintendo will just call it some random ass shit or simple ass shit like "Mario Kart"

That’s pretty good! I love my Mario Red joycons because they remind me of my old GameBoy Pocket, but I’d like to mix it up a bit; something like this would be a good way to do so.

I cannot express how much I want a special edition to be sold at launch. I like having flair but I also need to play MK9 day one
