I bought this on the Wii U, but due to how good it was I double dipped with the Switch version. The improved battle mode is worth the purchase alone, in my opinion. I have lost track of time on several occasions playing online because it's so fun. Must buy for all Switch owners.

My kids love this game and the cashier was able to locate it for us. Thank you

Haven't had a nintendo console since the Wii. Mario Cart is much more challenging now for serious players but can be modified to be playable by my younger nefews and neices without them feeling left out of the race

My friends and I try to keep in touch since we graduated college, and we will visit each other about once a month. This weekend I brought my Switch and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe with me to visit them, and this is the most fun we've had playing video games in years. Very much worth it.

Awesome game, features look excellent, very fun playing the game and time flies past when you are having fun!

Don't quite know yet if this is worth a purchase above the wi version. Mostly because you have to adjust to a new system. And it will take a few plays to see if the added characters and tracks will make it worth the upgrade. But if your addicted to Mario you know you'll want it.

Love it! Thw whole family plays. We have tournaments and all that. Worth the money especially as a long time fan of the franchise

A great port of Mario Kart 8 from the Wii U will all the DLC included and unlocked from purchase. Even if you were one of the 30 people who played it on the Wii U, it is still worth picking up for the upgraded battle modes and Local connection options between 2 Switch users

There's no real sense of accomplishment for me anymore since I don't really need to unlock more tracks or anything. You do still need to collect coins to unlock more vehicles, wheels, and gliders, but all characters and all tracks and all mode, 50 cc through 200 cc and mirror are already unlocked. The gameplay formula is the same as any other mario kart, they now let you hold a backup item which is nice. I took away one star just because I don't like that practically everything is unlocked already. But the game is still tremendous fun alone or with local friends or online!

The whole family loves playing this game! My 6 yr old gets into this game, and always asks to race!

This installment of Mario kart on the switch is great. The game is fun and delivers a home console hit be portable. This game is a the same as the Wii U version with all the DLC and a extra characters and battle modes. Having the quality of home gameplay on the go is wonderful.

I needed something that my kids and I could all play together that wasn't complicated. As always, Mario Kart is a win and this version is the best yet when it comes to kids. It has setting to auto help drive/steer for the kids which helps keep them less frustrated.

Lots of options, immersive game play, up to 8 players! You get all this and more when you buy Mario Kart 8. We bought it for a family game night and love binging to family functions and game nights alike! Great buy and well worth the value!

Great game. I owned it on Wii u soon sad we didn't get a proper sequel but I've gone from being the only Wii u owner in my friends group to one of 6 switch owners so it's easier to play with friends now. Taking the game anywhere with me is also a nice bonus and it looks great.

I had this game originally on the Wii U but upgraded to the Switch version. It's still an amazing game, it's still a gorgeous game. There isn't anything new other than a few characters and the redone battle mode but it's just as addictive to play as the original Wii U release.

Still a great game. Modernized, but still maintaining the mechanics and charm of the class game!

Nintendo never disappoints when it comes to first party games and this is no exception. You can play up to 4 player per screen! When was the last time any of the other consoles released a good 4 player game? Highly recommend it as a party game but also as a casual game.

Mario kart 8 deluxe is a great game to start off. Good for playing solo or with a group. All dlc are unlocked and the game has been fixed from previous flaws from the Wii U like double items. Mario kart is a good game but after a while it may be boring but it’s stil good.

This newest iteration builds on everything that was great about Mario Kart 8 with the addition of battle modes, all the DLC, and maybe most importantly, steering and acceleration assist. Thanks to these features, even young children and non-gamers can finally get in on the fun.

I already had MK8 on the Wii U but it is definitely worth buying again. The portability factor makes it great and I have already played it with friends at work with the joy-cons being 2 controllers. Online battle mode is very, very fun! Definitely a must have for Switch owners.
