Top 3 Mario Kart Tour Best Control Settings 

One of the best features of the Mario Kart Tour mobile app is the ability to control the way you steer! Nintendo has really done an excellent job of making the app a game that makes players feel at home with the series that they have come to love.

Here are the Top 3 Control Settings:

3. Gyro Handling and Smart Steering

Gyro Handling settings:

• Gyro Handling, as explained by the game: “Steer your Kart by tilting your device. This can’t be used on devices without a sensor”.
• Smart Steering, as explained by the game: “Steering assistance won’t be as strong if this is off”.
• The two settings, when combined, provide players with a more immersive experience.

What Is Great About Gyro Handling?

• This setting allows for players to use their mobile device as a steering mechanism!
• It’s just like the Joy-Con Wheel from Mario Kart 8 Deluxe!
• With Smart Steering, Gyro Handling is a super fun way to play the game! It allows players, old and new, to experience realistic steering-like gameplay.

2. Auto-Item and Smart Steering

Auto-Item and Smart Steering settings:

• Auto-Item, as explained by the game: “If on, the items you have will automatically be used when you break a new item box”.
• Smart Steering, as explained by the game: “Steering assistance won’t be as strong if this is off”.
• The two settings, when combined, provide players with a smoother driving experience. This method is best for beginners. 

What Is Great About Auto-Item and Smart Steering?

• The smoother controls allow for a less chaotic driving experience.
• Having Auto-Item prevents players from possibly wasting items when they break new boxes. 
• Using these two settings together allows for players to focus on the map instead of just the Kart. 

1. Manual Drift and Smart Steering

 Manual Drift and Smart Steering settings:

• Manual Drift, as explained by the game: “Touch the screen to start drifting while this is on. Ultra-Mini Turbos are possible”.
• Smart Steering, as explained by the game: “Steering assistance won’t be as strong if this is off”.
• The two settings, when combined, provide players with the opportunity to use Ultra-Mini Turbos which will increase their score once mastered!

What Is Great About Manual Drift and Smart Steering?

• For those players looking for more of a challenge and a higher score, these two settings combined are definitely what they’re looking for!
• Keeping Smart Steering on while using Manual Drift will allow for more control and smoother experience as players attempt to attain combos.
• If players save their items for the right time while in Manual Drift, they are likely to gain bigger bonuses with an Ultra-Mini Turbo boost and an item. If on a Driver’s favored course and a player gets a Frenzy, the Ultra Mini-Turbo boosts are likely to happen faster!
