Best game in Switch !!!
|Posted .Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.Really great gaming experience. Smooth as butter, great music, fun sound effects, very immersive. We've come a long way from Kart 64. I haven't really played much video games since the N64 (skipped both the Wii and WiiU, so I kinda feel like an old man jumping back into the World of Nintendo). It's made me feel like a kid again, and with how much stress I've been under these last few years with my health... that's a pretty big deal to me. Thank you, Nintendo.

Classic you can’t go wrong with
|Posted .Owned for 1 week when reviewed.A classic Nintendo game that you can’t really go wrong with. I’m not that into racing games and had only played Mario Kart on friends’ consoles so I was worried that I wasn’t going to play it much but I was wrong. I love to plop down on the couch with my switch lite and do a Grand Prix or two when I want to play a game but am not sure which one. My singular complaint is that I wish there were more characters, but I’ve found ones that I like so it’s not that big of a deal (there’s quite a few but most are unfamiliar to me because I haven’t played a wide variety of Nintendo games except for Pokémon and Zelda). There is a good selection of old and new tracks right out of the gate, and you unlock gear customizations by collections coins. There are lots of cool details on the tracks and great music. There’s also a battle mode where you fight with the power ups in different themed arenas. My favorite is the time tests mode because you can just go around the track solo and try to beat your record. There are of course multiplayer options and amino stuff, but I haven’t tried those yet.

Best Mario Kart to date
|Posted .First off let me say that I bought and played this game since day 1 it was released back on the Wii U so I have already put many hours into it before now. That being said even if you bought and played this on the Wii U it is well worth the price of picking up again on the switch. The battle mode is the biggest improvement over the Wii U version, but not the only one. Switch version runs at 1080p vs 720p on Wii U, it comes with all the paid DLC and of course the best feature... you can play it anywhere you want via handheld mode and it is absolutely gorgeous in handheld mode and on a TV. If you have never played.... buy it yesterday.... if you have it on Wii U... still buy it. As always I would recommend anyone buying video games to get the BestBuy Gamer club, it provides great year long discounts and since I have joined BestBuy is pretty much only place I get any physical games anymore. Great money saver.

Q: QuestionCan you play a Nintendo switch on an airplane? And also what is the difference between the physical and digital game? Which one do I order? HELP
Asked by Macy.
- A:Answer Yes, you can play this on an airplane but you can't do an online play obviously. The physical game is the version that comes in a physical SD card looking cartridge while digital is the version that you download from the Nintendo eStore, Digital game lives on the switch and is downloaded to the internal memory - I will suggest getting a high capacity micro SD card if you haven't already
