Yeah yeah yeah another topic asking for F-Zero. But even outside that, do you think Nintendo would ever make another racing game that isn't MK?

They've got quite a few racing franchises they could bring back: the Excite series, F-Zero and Wave Race. They could also try for a new IP as well.

None of those would come anywhwere close to selling as well as Mario Kart. However, if the Switch continues to sell well, I could see Nintendo releasing new entries in less popular IPs and hoping to appeal to enough of the Switch's large install base to make the whole thing (modestly) profitable.

Hopefully Nintendo brings back F-Zero on Switch like they brought back Star Fox on the Wii U after 10 years.

Fast RMX

While great, it's a third party exclusive. I wanna see something done by Nintendo themselves.

The other folk mentioned some good old franchises that deserve a comeback, and I agree.

Don't know why but I always pictured something along the lines of Auto Modellista done by Nintendo.

I just don't see Nintendo licensing real cars for their games.

It's a Wii U game.

It’s enhanced to 1080p with gameplay tweaks and includes both the Wii Fast Racing League and Wii U Fast Racing Neo league tracks combined. Also since the updates, it has a lot of new tracks and racers in Fast RMX. It’s more than just a Wii U game, especially after the updates.

Still waiting on that Seiken Densetsu Collection to be localized. I'm not convinced it'll happen, but I wouldn't mind being proven wrong.

I want racing game with IRL cars with more tuners on switch. I'm sick of muscles and supercars.
It's not about whether or not I can afford a DLC, it's the integrety behind it and does it do favor to the community to support it?

Yes. 

Sadly that seems to be the norm to all racing games these days. It's all about taking a Lamborghini and racing through beaches in the sunset. I miss the urban atmosphere of NFS Underground, where you take your average tuner and customize it from the ground up into a beast of a car. I started Forza Horizon 3 the other day and for starters the game hooks you up with a BMW M4, it's a nice ride but it's too much. Why would I bother with inferior cars?

Need for Speed 2015 is the one that comes the closest to that good Underground vibe, but even that I don't like the car list very much. That freaking Ferrari F40 is completely out of place in that game.

How many first party racing games does any console maker have? 

Don't MS just have forza? People will say forza is different from forza horizon but it's really not -_- one just lets you race on tracks and the other is open. They could put those in the same game.

And sony has what?? Idk honestly I don't play sonys racing games I know they have one though I think it's project gotham.

Do either companies have more than one racing game that's first party?

Wave Race had too much product placement to even make money.

Diddy Kong Racing is owned by Rare.

Since Nintendo has a rule of one original Mario Kart per console, a new one might come out on the Switch since Mario Kart 8 Deluxe doesn't count.

I agree and I think half of the cars are out of place considering the overemphasis on drifting. I do like how they hanlded the tuning mechanic, different aspiration gave it a nice touch.

Quite frankly I'd take something like Assetto Corsa or Project CARS 2 over arcade nonsense like diddy kong, wave race, f-zero or others.

Unless I’m missing something, or misunderstanding you, no it doesn’t. I own Fast Racing League, Fast Racing Neo plus it’s DLC, and Fast RMX. Neither Neo, nor RMX contain any tracks from League. 

RMX got all eight of the paid DLC tracks from Neo, plus six all new tracks, plus six new remix tracks based on tracks already in RMX, for a total of thirty-six courses. I’d love an all new HD version of League, though.
