Mario Kart Tour is Coming to Mobile by March 2019

JettLeave a comment

It’s going to be a long wait, but I’ll gladly twiddle my thumbs till then if that means Nintendo gets it right!

Out of this epic failure came the rise of third-party tracking apps, such as the now-defunct Pokevision. Months later, Niantic hopes to quell the criticism once and for all with this new tracker.
