Yeah, I'm totally buying this. I really dug the mobile game, but felt that the 'mobile' freemium aspects let it down, as well as the usual lack of control on a mobile device. No matter how great the bones are, that kind of economy in a game just isn't fun or rewarding.
So I applaud the devs for cutting all the BS out for the Switch release, and having actually played the mobile game (a lot), there's MORE than enough content in the game to justify a full price purchase from me. I really dig Metropolis Street Racer/Project Gotham-style arcade racers, so Gear.Club Unlimited is right up my alley.
You would think a Nintendo site would know better than compare Riptide GP Renegade to Wave Race 64. This is nothing like Wave Race. It's still a top game though, and more like Hydro Thunder than anything. If you like arcade racers AT ALL, you'll be needing this one.
I can only speak for Aqua Moto Utopia, but I'm afraid it's not too great. I bought into the early access, and though there's been improvements since then, the full release has some really stiff animation that totally kills the aesthetic, and really detracts from the racing on water thing. It looks pretty in stills, but in motion, it kinda falls apart. Controls are average, and just not as good as even WR: Blue Storm, let alone Wave Race 64. It's not terrible, but it was a big disappointment for me, personally.
