The Nintendo Switch may not be as powerful as the PlayStation 4 or Xbox One, but it still delivers tons of fun. Instead of focusing on 4K capabilities like other current-generation consoles, the Switch lives up to its name by allowing you to take it on the go as a handheld system, or dock it at home to play on your TV. It’s quickly become one of the top-selling consoles of all time, thanks to its focus on family-friendly fun. You may not find extremely realistic driving simulators on the Switch that rival the likes of Gran Turismo or Forza Motorsport, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t have its fair share of racing games. In fact, the Switch is the only console you get to play Mario Kart, and for many people, that’s all that matters.
Below, you’ll find our picks for the top 10 best Nintendo Switch racing games currently available. Many of them are geared towards fun over realism, but there are a few selections that are a bit more like a driving simulator. We tried our best to cover several different genres, this way you can find something that matches your interests. After going through the games, we even have some recommendations on accessories you can buy to make your racing games even more fun.
