doesn't work if I have the physical game.
You can purchase the DLC via the Nintendo e-shop if you own the physical game. You will need access to the internet to do so, and it will be tied to the account used to purchase it.

If I recently bought the Mario kart deluxe console is this an add on to that? Sorry deluxe sounds like the upgrade. Is this an upgrade to the upgrade?

Yes, upgrade to upgrade. This is DLC to MK8Dx. It is worth it imo as it literally doubles the number of tracks on top of adding characters, the base (Dx) game already being one of the biggest Mario Karts ever.

We've been hearing Switch 2 rumors since 2017 and now we are talking about rumored Switch 2 games...when the Switch 2 is still (officially) a rumor itself? LOL....

Personally I bet Nintendo will just repackage MK8, throw the world "rEmAsTeR" on it, include a tiny bit of new-ish DLC, then charge people $49.95 for the privilege to rebuy a game they already own on the Switch 1 (and probably owned on the Wii U)...oh, and it will have some absurdly useless Switch 2 gimmick that will be all the buzz for a 6 weeks then will be forgotten and / or sunset.
They should offer an upgrade sale for those who owned the Wii U version. It would be fair, similar to how Steam recognizes partial ownership and adjusts the price accordingly. People who own part of the product should get a proportional discount. Treating all customers as if they are always new and double dipping is also misguided. I'm surprised steam is the only one who practices fairness in repurchases.

They should allow save transfers from Wii U too. I just spent 30hrs going through all the base GP cups again on the Switch😂

You're woefully misinformed.
Nintendo itself said the Switch 2 drops by end of March.

Granted, MK9 may not be a launch title, but something will, and that tentpole makes the most sense.
Go ahead and show us where Nintendo said the switch 2 is released by the end of March.

Amen, at least a discount. Some Nintendo games I "own" (yet cannot access anymore) on multiple systems from the 3DS, Wii, Wii U, etc. It's absurd I (among others) keep buying the same game at full price over and over again Wink

I personally think digital purchases across different PC DRM platforms should be legally required to carry over. If I buy game on Epic, I should be able to download it via Steam or the reverse (EA actually seems to let you do this on their software if you purchase on Steam). I think it would actually increase revenue to most DRM platforms and the actual best service, not just the one where the most people 'own' games, would win.

So once you purchase this DLC, you get all 48 tracks and get to keep them for good right (no ongoing membership)? Thanks in advance.
