Be prepared to say goodbye to all your previous past times, friends and family as the nostalgic Mario Kart Tour is set to become everyone's latest obsession.
Nintendo made the announcement on Twitter and it's likely that a string of other Nintendo games will be released for mobile including a Legend of Zelda game.

The bad news is we have to wait until 2019 to get our hands on Mario Kart Tour. So far Nintendo has released Super Mario Run, Fire Emblem Heroes and Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp on smartphone devices. The company sold nearly 8 million Switch consoles during their holiday quarter, a massive jump from their last gaming device the Wii U which the Switch has outsold in less than a year.

If you cant wait to download Mario Kart Tour, retro titles available for Android include Minecraft, Final Fantasy, Sega games like Sonic The Hedgehog and even Netflix hit Stranger Things.
Fingers crossed that we can choose from the classic collection of characters like Donkey Kong, Peach, Bowser and Yoshi in Mario Kart Tour.
