Hm, Mario Kart 9 seems to look pretty similar to MK8. I had hoped for a new art direction / style.
I made this FOSS template for easy reuse.

Super Mario Kart 8++ Ultra 2
Super Switch 2: Turbo Championship Edition and Knuckles
It’s doesn’t say Mario Kart 9 but that does look like new character models to me. I’m expecting them to drop the numbering system and go back to subtitles anyway though.
No, but it wasn't footage from Mario Kart 8.
I keep hoping for Mario Kart Ultimate with every retro track, but I know I'm just setting myself up for disappointment.
That would be cool, but super challenging to do.
From the exec perspective on that I don't see them justifying the hours to do it vs the appeal to gamers now.
Even if it didn't, so you really think that Nintendo won't make Mario cart 9?
A thing I just thought of is that it'd be super cool if - by using the joy con as a mouse - they had a track creator mode where you could share custom tracks.
