The standard wheel is 22 cm with 180-degree rotation and foot pedals, priced at 9,980 yen. The DX wheel is 28 cm with 270-degree rotation, rubber grips, paddle shifters, and unique features like Winning Mode and linearity adjustment, priced at 15,980 yen. Both are wired only, release June 30, 2026.","why_it_matters":"The DX model's Winning Mode and linearity adjustment are unusual features for a licensed racing wheel, suggesting Hori is targeting casual players who want easier control rather than pure simulation.","published_at":"2026-05-20T14:15:01.000Z","source_count":1,"sources":["Game Spark"],"citations":[{"source":"Game Spark","title":"Hori Announces Mario Kart Controller for Switch 2!
