Recently, Nintendo came up with a social media post to share an update for the Switch Sports. After nearly three months of its debut, the game has now received a change. However, fans are not looking impressed with this latest rollout from the Japanese giant. Instead, they want a major update on another big Switch game that’s gone missing for a while. Yes, we are talking about Mario Kart 8 Deluxe.
Fans are frustrated over Nintendo for not bringing Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Booster Course DLC wave 2
Nintendo Switch Sports hasn’t received any major updates for some time. But the makers decided to offer something recently in the form of a small addition. In one of its newest tweets, the official account of Nintendo mentioned a “free summer update” for the fans with the “Leg Strap” accessory.
The free summer update for #NintendoSwitchSports is available now!

With this, players can now have a better experience while playing volleyball as they can do “Slide Attack and Rocket Serve”. Sadly, though, it seems like Nintendo fans didn’t want any such update from the makers. Instead, they have been waiting for the next Booster Course DLC wave for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and haven’t received any information just yet on the same.
So it was obvious to see a flood of unfavorable reactions from most of the Mario lovers. They even called out Nintendo for delivering an insignificant update for Switch Sports that could’ve been added at the time of its launch itself.

The majority of the fans were angry at the Japanese giant as it failed yet again to provide any relevant news on the awaited wave 2 in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. Have a look at some of the heated reactions below:
You do realize Mario Kart turns 30 next month, right? Perhaps a wave 2 should be announced by then?

All you have to do is give us a date for Mario kart dlc, even if it is 5 more months away. Judging by the replies your fans care infinitely more about Mario kart then XC3 and leg straps, despite Mario kart being an 8 year old game. This is sad
