For gamers with a burning passion for racing titles, there’s probably no better addition to your console than a steering wheel. The moment you lay your hands on the racing wheel, you instantly feel like a racer behind a genuine vehicle with only one goal in mind – to win. Your typical driving wheel for Nintendo Switch includes a wheel, additional buttons, pedals, sometimes even a clutch and a shifter, and while this setup might seem like nothing too special, the whole magic lies with the force feedback function that translates everything happening to your vehicle straight to the controller. Different diameters, fast-reacting pedals, and more nifty features can be found in many new and used Nintendo Switch racing wheel listings here in the Eneba store.

Notable gaming wheels for Nintendo Switch
These nifty devices come in many different shapes and sizes, and many racing enthusiasts are especially fond of steering wheels with clutch and shifter features. By design, a proper racing wheel will not only make you feel like you’re sitting behind the wheel of an actual car but will give you proper physical cues you can use to adjust your driving. There are many things to consider when looking for a model for your Nintendo setup but, generally, there are a few gaming steering wheels and manufacturers that stand out from the rest:
- Talkworks Steering Wheel Controller – a medium-sized wheel suitable for kids and adults, this model includes extended shoulder buttons and an ergonomic design;
- Rocketfish Joy-Con Racing Wheels – this double pack includes an ergonomic grip for extended playtime and a compact design;
- Officially Licensed HORI Mario Kart Racing Wheel Pro Mini – this Mario-themed wheel comes with foot pedals, is significantly bigger than other Switch models, and features an item button designed for an easier Mario Kart experience;
- HORI Mario Kart Racing Wheel Pro Deluxe – this pro wheel includes textured grips, a more convenient button placement, and comes with pedals.
NOTE: not all steering wheels are compatible with consoles. Before you purchase a certain model, always make sure to check its compatibility at the manufacturer’s website.
How to choose the best Nintendo Switch steering wheel?
Since these Nintendo Switch accessories come in many shapes, sizes, and functionalities, there’s no wonder that you might have trouble picking a driving wheel that’s best for you. If you can’t choose right away, consider these factors before buying one:
- Price. The wheel market offers both high-end models, which are, naturally, more expensive, and simpler ones that won’t make a huge dent in your wallet. The key aspect here is what games are you going to use them for. If you’re more of a casual player who wants easier control, then a cheap Nintendo Switch steering wheel is going to be enough, but if you expect realistic handling and are planning on playing ultra-realistic racing games, then the obvious choice is a high-end model;
- Comfortability. Some models come with wheels covered in either leather or pleather, others come with no extra padding. Not all of these devices include a clutch or even pedals, and not every steering wheel includes a bunch of programmable buttons or adjustable parts. Decide what aspects are necessary for the best experience and choose accordingly;
- Force feedback. Different wheels have different kinds of force feedback. Gear drive. This is the oldest kind – the wheel shaft is attached to the gears that connect the main force feedback motor. While it does amplify torque, it’s a much noisier system that sometimes jolts imprecisely. Belt drive. The most common kind – the wheel shaft is attached to the belts that connect the main force feedback motor. They are more precise and quieter but because the belts are made out of rubber, they absorb some of the feedback before it reaches the wheel. Direct drive. This kind has the wheel mounted directly to the motor. They have no delay or loss of torque but they tend to be the most expensive kind.
