Even if I can understand Nintendo’s reasoning behind it, it’s still a bit of a letdown.

This can be done in person via a local connection, or remotely through an online one.

When Iinitially covered GameShare, I predicted thatMario Kart Worldwouldn’t have it.

This is extra disappointing becausepreviousMario Kartgames did have a feature similar to GameShare.

Download Play was essentially the same idea as GameShare, but for the Nintendo DS and 3DS.

As of now, all the games getting GameShare capabilities are older releases from the original Switch.

Mario Kart World puts new twists on classic MK game modes.

Heres how its two flagship game modes, Grand Prix and Knockout Tour, are different.

Hopefully the Switch 2 can make good on GameShare’s exciting promise.
