Playing a game like Mario Kart on the 3DS might not sound ideal to some people because of the size of the screen and the lack of a steering wheel, but Hori has the latter covered. Behold their steering wheel peripheral designed specifically for Mario Kart on the 3DS.
It is officially licensed by Nintendo and has large L and R buttons for your gaming pleasure. Other features include… Uh, sadly that’s about it. You won’t be able to use it to control your kart in the game – although the 3DS’ motion sensors might do the trick. Looks like this is meant to be mostly decorative and make you feel like you are more in the game.
This somewhat useless steering wheel is Japan only right now and will be available on December 1st for about $17 (USD). No word on whether it will come to the States or not.
