Horizon Chase Turbo: Works perfectly, it's just extremely fast paced so more of a learning curve than some of the others.

While the kart is in use, the "gas" icon on the top-left corner of the screen will indicate the kart’s battery charge. If it is low, be sure to charge the kart. The wireless communication can also deteriorate due to other wireless devices being nearby, or there being walls or other obstacles between the console and the kart. Trials Fusion: Analog presses do not register, and controlling with the wheel is almost impossible due to how technical the game is.

Right out of the box, the Mario Kart Racing Wheel looks like it was ripped straight out of a turbo-charged go-kart belonging to Nintendo's most bankable plumber. Besides the good looks, this desk-mounted racing wheel comes with everything that you'd expect from hardware for racing games where you aren't lobbing blue tortoise shells of death at rival players. It has flappy pedal shifters on the side of the wheel, traditional pedals for your feet, and a ton of buttons to use, making it more than just the perfect peripheral for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. Overall thoughts: 4/5. The wheel feels great and solid for the games that it works with. I recommend using the clamp method vs. suction cups to prevent sliding. A lot of fun for racing fans, and having analog pedals cannot be understated enough for feel and control. The controls do provide a bit of a learning curve, but are fairly rewarding. The ability to remap any buttons, and change the dead zone/sensitivity to 7 different levels is nice. It also works on PC using XInput, which is cool for those intetested. If you select a special environment such as Lava or Blizzard, certain obstacles will appear in-game which may stop the kart or restrict its movement. For intense Mario Kart 8 Deluxe fans, we recommend the Mario Kart Racing Wheel Pro Mini. The steering wheel is larger than many others out there, and it comes with foot pedals for a more immersive racing experience. Or, if you want to take it a step further, you could get the Mario Kart Racing Wheel Pro Deluxe for better grip, button placement, and stability with suction cups.

Steering Assist is an in-game feature that automatically turns the steering wheel so that the kart runs along the course. While racing, press the + Button and open the Options menu.
