Think of the name Nintendo, and familiar names and faces likely come to mind. There’s Mario and Luigi, the mustachioed brothers in overalls who fight Bowser, the turtlelike villain with a habit of kidnapping Princess Peach. And then there’s Donkey Kong, Wario and Toad, among others.
These characters have been racing one another in iterations of the Mario Kart game series since 1992, with no real storyline other than who can come in first place. But from the moment the first trailers for the Switch 2 console and the Mario Kart World game were released in April, fans were abuzz that a new favourite had entered the race: a cow.
