The new Mario Kart 7 is due to release in December for Nintendo 3DS, just in time for the holiday season. A new accessory from Hori is also being released at about the same time as Mario Kart 7, it is a 3DS compatible steering wheel. It's priced at �1,280 (about $17). Very similar concept to the Wii Steering wheel often used with the Wii remote and Mario Kart Wii.

The Hori Steering wheel for the 3DS, has a similar design and grip as the Wii Steering Wheel. If you enjoy using the Steering Wheel on your Nintendo Wii with Mario Kart or just enjoy playing Mario Kart in general, you could go pick one of these steering wheel's up if you enjoy using the Nintendo accessories/attachments while you play Nintendo Wii games. The 3DS Hori steering wheel has tweaked shoulder triggers and has the Official Nintendo Seal of approval.
