New Mario Kart-Themed Nintendo Switch Profile Icons Now Available via Nintendo Switch Online

Nintendo continues to engage its dedicated fanbase with new digital offerings, and Mario Kart enthusiasts are in for a treat.

The latest wave of Mario Kart-themed profile icons for Nintendo Switch is now available through Nintendo Switch Online, further expanding customization options for users across the globe.

First introduced as part of Nintendo Switch Online’s ongoing membership perks, collectible profile icons have allowed players to showcase their favorite franchises and characters.

This latest update, releasing on July 2nd, adds a vibrant selection of Mario Kart-inspired icons to the ever-growing library.

Notably, fan-favorite characters such as Shy Guy and Princess Peach are featured among the new designs, allowing users to further personalize their Nintendo Switch profiles. Users can unlock and redeem these icons through the Nintendo Switch Online service by spending Platinum Points—a form of digital currency earned by completing My Nintendo missions.

To access the new Mario Kart profile icons, simply visit the Nintendo Switch Online section via the Nintendo Switch dashboard or Nintendo eShop. A Nintendo spokesperson emphasized the company’s commitment to offering more ways for fans to express themselves, stating that the new wave of icons builds on the ongoing goal to enhance user engagement and customization through Nintendo Switch Online memberships.

The ability to mix and match backgrounds, frames, and character portraits lets players design unique icons tailored to their tastes. Nintendo Switch Online has grown significantly since its debut in 2018, with regular updates, exclusive launches, and fresh content to keep the platform dynamic.

The addition of new Mario Kart profile icons follows a tradition of timed digital rewards, encouraging users to check back regularly for new releases tied to popular Nintendo franchises. The new Mario Kart icon wave is accessible to all active Nintendo Switch Online subscribers.

Players are urged to redeem their favorites while the offering lasts, as previous icon events have been time-limited and exclusive.

For more details, visit the official Nintendo Switch Online news section or consult the Nintendo eShop on your system. By continuing to introduce exclusive digital rewards like these Mario Kart icons, Nintendo reinforces its dedication to providing value to its subscription-based service and deepening fan engagement throughout the Nintendo Switch ecosystem.
