General Information

How does Mario Kart Live: Home Circuit work?

Mario Kart Live: Home Circuit brings the fun of the Mario Kart series into the real world by using a Nintendo Switch or Nintendo Switch Lite system to race against opponents using a physical kart.

Players place gates to create a custom course layout in their home. Players then control the kart on the Nintendo Switch system while watching the live video from the kart’s camera on the Nintendo Switch game screen or TV (if playing in TV mode while docked).

The physical kart responds to boosts in-game and in the real world, stops when hit with an item, and can be affected in different ways depending on the race.

Mario Kart Live: Home Circuit, which is available in Mario Set and Luigi Set, will be available at a suggested retail price of $99.99 (each) in the US and $129.99 (each) in Canada.

We recommend playing within a range of 15 feet (approximately 5 meters) or less of the Nintendo Switch system when racing.

How durable are the karts?

The karts are designed to withstand reasonable indoor use on a flat surface, and they can handle bumping into household items used to design the course, such as boxes, blocks and furniture. Fujitsu scansnap s1300 software download mac.

How many gates can be used in a race?

For information about setting up a course, please see How to Create a Course in Mario Kart Live: Home Circuit.

Can I decorate/customize the gates?

Decorating or customizing the gates can impact their functionality and prevent the camera on the kart from properly reading them, so it is not recommended. However, we encourage people to get creative with their course designs by adding fun obstacles and household items.

Can I play the game outdoors?

Mario Kart Live: Home Circuit and the karts are designed for indoor use only, and exposure to outdoor elements like weather and dirt could impact the performance and longevity of the product.

For the best gameplay experience, we recommend racing the kart on a flat surface. Playing on elevated surfaces can impact the gameplay and performance of the physical kart.

Can I play on carpet or rugs?

The kart is designed to race across a variety of flat, indoor surfaces such as hardwood, laminate, tile, and short pile carpeting, so it’s possible to combine multiple different surface types in a single track. We recommend players avoid racing on carpets that have long fibers or heavily-textured designs, and that the floor is free of hair and other debris that could become entangled in the kart's wheels.

Do physical obstacles I place in the course affect the virtual racers/Koopalings in the game?

Only the course design and in-game settings such as environments affect the CPU players. Physical obstacles create distractions and change the way human players navigate a course, adding new layers of fun and customization to each race. Additionally, if the physical kart hits a stationary object, the player will lose coins in-game.
