Mario Kart World Switch 2 Controller and Slim Case Up for Pre-Order
PowerA has opened pre-orders for two new Mario Kart World-themed accessories for Nintendo Switch 2: the Advantage Wireless Controller for Nintendo Switch 2 Mario Kart World and the Slim Case for Nintendo Switch 2 Mario Kart World. Both products feature artwork from the Nintendo Switch 2 title Mario Kart World printed across their surfaces, with Mario depicted racing around in a kart. According to the announcement, the accessories are scheduled to launch on September 30, 2026, and each is equipped with features aimed at making gameplay more comfortable.
The wireless controller, built for use with Nintendo Switch 2, includes hall effect centers that help prevent stick malfunction, along with Advanced Gaming Buttons on the rear that can be freely assigned to existing buttons. It also houses an accelerometer and gyro sensor, enabling tilt-based controls, and delivers up to 30 hours of playtime on a single charge. These features position the controller as a full-featured option for Mario Kart sessions on the new hardware.
The hard cover case for Nintendo Switch 2 also sports the visual of Mario characters racing in karts. Inside, it can store up to 10 game cards. When laid flat underneath the console, the case doubles as a stand to prop the Switch 2 up in tabletop mode. The interior is lined with a soft brushed material, and a dedicated screen cover is included to shield the display from shocks and impacts.
Pre-orders for both the controller and the slim case are now live, with release scheduled for September 30, 2026. No pricing details were mentioned in the announcement. For Mario Kart fans looking to kit out their Switch 2 with themed gear, these PowerA products offer practical features beyond their colorful designs — the 30-hour battery and assignable back buttons alone make the controller an appealing pick.
