    Doesn’t quite have the old school vibe as the old Mario cards but if you like racing in weird zero gravity like maps then this is the game for you. Even though the game pretty much drives for you I can still beat my kid. 3 decades later, I still got it

    This is the greatest Mario Kart thus far! The battle mode is super fun and the ability to hold 2 items is fantastic. Love the new tracks and the added characters. Must add this game to your Switch collection.

    If you've already owned this game for the Wii U you know what you're getting into. What this game does it is it allows me to play anywhere in the country with any of my friends who also have a Nintendo switch. With the way the controllers work you can have two people playing instantaneously on the same screen. Or if you like to have your own screen you and your buddy can use your own switch. You can have up to 8 players playing this game and the chaos is amazing. The extra levels were well designed you get all the extra characters and you still get to unlock plenty of things as you grow. I highly recommend this game as the most used game I have for the switch with the exception of the new Zelda. Have fun!

    We bought this because our 5 year old had been enjoying MK8 for the Wii U, but we didn't have all of the DLC. He absolutely loves it and wants to play it all the time. It's great for the 3 of us to play together, he has such a great time. It includes options to make it easier for younger players to play, like an option to automatically have the gas pressed so they can focus on turning. Highly recommend if you love the MarioKart games and are looking to have a good time with your children.

    Mario Kart 8 for the Wii u was great. Mario kart 8 deluxe takes that same formula and improved on it in many ways, with a very fun new battle mode, new characters, new vehicles, and all the DLC from the Wii U all packaged together. On top of that, there is new auto steering and accelarate features, which really improve gameplay for new or younger players. But the best feature isn't one unique to the game, it is the mobility of the Switch itself. It's so easy to bring to get togethers, parties, or even to restaurants to play a few races while waiting for food. It is a very social and very accessible console for anyone and everyone, with Mario kart being one of the best games on the system.

    I hadn't played Mario kart since the Nintendo 64 days, so I was blown away by how good this game looks and how well it plays. The idea that you could play it with one JoyCon via motion controls gave me pause; once I tried it, I saw how lag-free the controls were and kept remarking on how responsive the steering was. The fact that I could play this with four individual JoyCons instead of four complete controllers is a huge, huge benefit. This game is easy to get into and fun to play in a group; the portability of the Switch allows me to bring it anywhere. It's a great game for parties!

    Best Iteration of a Gaming Classic

    This game was purchased as a gift. While I do not have any experience with the Switch version of this title, I have extensive experience behind the wheel of Mario Kart 8 for the Wii U (on which this is based). Mario Kart 8 was able to reiterate on the series in a way with which to move it forward while still remaining true to its roots as a fun, easy for everyone, racing game. This Deluxe version includes everything from the Wii U version, plus more. The ability to take Mario Kart mobile and share it with friends easily make this a no-brainer recommendation. If you own a Nintendo Switch, this is a must have title.

    Mario Kart is fast, fun, and addictive, offering exciting races full of chaotic items and colorful tracks. It’s easy to pick up for beginners but still competitive for experienced players. Local and online multiplayer make it a blast with friends or family. Overall, it’s one of Nintendo’s most enjoyable series.

    Want fast paced action with friends, online, or by yourself? One of the best games on the Wii U is now one of the best games on the Switch... and even better than its original version. The battle arenas are actually arenas (unlike the first version of the game), and were a much needed upgrade. They give you a ton of stuff unlocked as soon as you start, and there's still more to unlock while you collect coins racing. The tracks, featuring a number from previous versions of Mario Kart remade, are all very well designed. The only con to the game is the rubberband effect, which is, as always, worse as the difficulty increases.
