The launch of Mario Kart Tour was a milestone in the history of mobile video games . Basically, because it is the first time that an installment of the famous plumber saga has reached a platform outside of Nintendo‘s .
However, despite the resounding and undeniable success of the title, players expressed their complaints about a non-existent option related to gameplay . It is about the ability to rotate the screen to play horizontally . In this way, Mario Kart Tour would be assimilated to what we all knew previously, whether on Nintendo Switch, Nintendo DS , Gamecube or family.
Nintendo listened to the fans
Users were quick to urge the Japanese company to introduce a simple tweak that would allow screen rotation within the game. An option that a large part of the players thought would be introduced from the beginning, since in a work based on car racing the idea of playing vertically is incomprehensible.
In fact, practically all the race deliveries that can be found in the virtual store of your smartphone appear by default with the screen horizontally. Even so, it seems that Mario Kart Tour intended to be unique in every way, but this particularity did not convince fans of the saga.
This has led Nintendo to integrate a configuration that enables the alternative of playing in this way and that each player makes use of their preferred option. In addition, this means that the interface is affected in its entirety and that the handling of the vehicle is different.
How to change the look
The 16: 9 aspect ratio is the one adopted by most mobile video games, but in the Mario Kart Tour genre it is almost a requirement. Through an update , users are now allowed to modify the rotation of the screen to play as if it were a console.
Carrying out the procedure is not very mysterious due to its simplicity. In any case, here are the steps you must follow to do so. The first thing you should do, logically, is enter the Mario Kart Tour application. When you are in the initial screen of the game, just select an option called ‘Menu’ that you can see in the lower right area. This will display a window where the various accesses of the Nintendo delivery will be displayed.
Again at the bottom right you will see a cogwheel to enter the game settings. After clicking on it, you will clearly notice the configuration , as it will appear in the foreground.
You can set the screen orientation to change based on position or choose to have it fully fixed. In addition, you can also indicate if with the right side of the phone you control the vehicle or throw objects. Thanks to this small adjustment, players can choose their ideal way to play . If you choose to activate the Motion Control function, the car’s handling will be much more comfortable than before. It’s time for you to take the podium.
