If you have a Switch, this unique RC car-meets-AR racing game can turn your home into a high-octane race track. It features a real-life rechargeable Mario Kart with a camera mounted on the back that you drive using your Switch, and cardboard gates that you can use to build a custom AR track around your home. All you need is at least 10 square feet of free space. Your Kart will even react in real-time as you hit speed boosts and obstacles for a totally immersive experience.
There is a lot to love about the Nintendo Switch, but for plenty of people, the tiny Joy-Con controllers were not one of those things. If you prefer a more classic controller feel, then you can grab this enhanced PowerA Switch Controller for $20 off. It features the same button layout as the Joy-Cons and is totally wireless. It’s powered by two AA batteries, which provide roughly 30 hours of playtime, rather than a rechargeable battery pack like most wireless controllers. So while you will have to occasionally swap the batteries out, that also means you can instantly pop in fresh ones when it dies and get back to gaming with no waiting around for it to recharge.
