Hori Mario Kart Racing Wheel Mini and Deluxe

Alternatively, there's the Mario Kart Racing Wheel Pro Deluxe from Hori. This one is slightly more expensive--$71 this week at Target--but it is larger and includes convenient onboard controls to help create an authentic racing simulation experience. Plus, this wheel retails for $110, so you're getting a much larger discount. Both of these Hori racing wheels are officially licensed by Nintendo as well.

Target also has deals on for several other racing wheels and fight sticks right now. Sticking with the Switch, there's a compact fighting pad with a full eight-button layout and a proper micro switch-activated joystick, ideal for retro fighting games on that platform. On Xbox and PlayStation, several Hori racing wheels have been discounted, but if you're looking to get the best quality, you can't go wrong with Logitech's line of racing wheels. The Logitech G29 for PC and PlayStation have long been the go-to wheels for racing game fans, while on Xbox, the G920 racing wheel is well-suited to games like last year's Forza Motorsport. These are normally $300 each, but Target is offering them for $240 this week.
