Buying a go-kart for a few rounds of real-life Mario Kart would be fairly expensive, but the next best thing is a racing wheel that’ll add an extra layer of immersion to your Mushroom Kingdom races in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. With Target Circle Week now live through April 13, you can pick up a few of these racing wheels at very affordable prices from several top brands. To get these deals you’ll need to be a member of the Target Circle club, but signing up is free and easy. If you need the game as well, you can get a bundle containing the base game and Booster Course Pass for $65 (was $85).

For the racing wheels, one of the top deals here is the Hori Mario Kart Racing Wheel Pro Mini. This one is priced at $53.60 for Circle members this week, and it offers design and compact form factor. The bright red and blue colors make it stand out; it has an ergonomic design based on real steering wheels; and it comes with pedals for that extra touch. This compact Nintendo Switch racing wheel is great for younger members of the family or anyone looking for a racing wheel that won’t break the bank.
Alternatively, there’s the Mario Kart Racing Wheel Pro Deluxe from Hori. This one is slightly more expensive–$71 this week at Target–but it is larger and includes convenient onboard controls to help create an authentic racing simulation experience. Plus, this wheel retails for $110, so you’re getting a much larger discount. Both of these Hori racing wheels are officially licensed by Nintendo as well.
