Why do 394 P switches?

The 394 P-Switches in Mario Kart World likely form a hidden "Thank You for Playing" message in Japanese: 3 (San) + 9 (Kyuu) sounds like "Thank You," 4 is "For," and P is "Playing," a common Nintendo Easter egg, though some theories suggest cut content for the number. Collecting them unlocks kart customization stickers, and while a tedious grind, completing them is key to 100% completion, as noted by players on Reddit and Facebook.

What does p in P Switch stand for?

Nintendo hasn't officially confirmed what the "P" in Super Mario's P-Switch stands for, but popular theories suggest "Power," "Push," or "Paratroopa," with "Power" being the most likely for the switch itself, though "Paratroopa" fits the similar P-Wing item. It's a button that temporarily transforms blocks and coins, giving it a "Power" or "Push" function, but its visual link to the Paratroopa enemy (Patapata in Japanese) makes that a strong contender too.

What is itsumi in Japanese?

"Itsumi" isn't a standard Japanese word, but a popular false rumor claims Super Mario says "Itsumi Mario," meaning "Super Mario," though Nintendo confirms the phrase is "It's-a me, Mario," and "Itsumi" doesn't mean "super" in Japanese; the actual word for "super" is "subarashii".
