If you enjoyed previous mario kart games, you will easily enjoy this one. Better graphics, more characters. Easy choice.

Super fun game for the switch. Like most switch games you can buy an upgrade pack for this one to double the number of courses to 48 if you get a switch 2 to play on. One of my overall favorite games for just about any age.

This game is a ton of fun. Plenty of courses, characters, vehicles and game modes to choose from. The online mode is good too. A MUST OWN.

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe has to be the best Mario Kart ever made. This is coming from a guy who's first game ever was MK 64. I loved that game and still love it to this day. I've played every console MK, and several handheld versions, and I feel this game not only the best racing experience of them all, it's also the best celebration of all the past glories of the entire series all in one package. If you have a Switch and you don't have this game, you are missing a vital piece of the whole experience your Switch has to offer.

Brings me back to my youth yet it's also new and exciting with new tracks and characters

This game brings back fun memories of Mario kart 7 and somehow Nintendo made this game even more fun!

Great game lots of fun with your family. Very easy to follow and play.

Bought for my kids as a game that my non video game loving wife said she would play. So she will play this with them from time to time. Kids love it!

I owned Mario Kart 8 on the WiiU but am glad I made the decision to purchase the Deluxe version on the Nintendo Switch. The game was already among the best Mario Kart titles, with smooth graphics and controls, fun new courses, and a tasteful selection of classics. The addition of a full-featured Battle Mode makes multiplayer that much more fun, especially the return of my favorite mode, Shine Thief. The game also features all of the DLC tracks from the WiiU version, many of which were among the best courses in the entire series.

Love playing Mario kart. Gave this game to my girlfriend and she loves it.

Speed is not everything. Picking up weapons and racing all in one. Cute characters and lots of colors. Fun and competitive

I like the variety of gameplay options, tracks, single/multiplayer etc. Controls are easy to use, even in the "single joycon" multiplayer configuration, though I'd recommend getting some joycon holders to make the grip more comfortable to hold, especially for adults - those things are tiny. Haven't played with the steering wheel controllers, but it's fun to play with the regular controller too. Kids enjoy it, we can play as a family.

This is the best version of the best Mario Kart game. It looks great, plays great, and is tons of fun to play with friends or by yourself.

Having a console Mario Kart game on the go has been a dream of many Nintendo fans. With the release of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe that's finally a reality. This game was my favorite Mario Kart when it initially released on the Wii U and having a Deluxe version for Switch is truly incredible. Additions of new characters, karts, and a completely revamped battle mode make this game truly worth the purchase, even if you already bought it for the Wii U. The updated graphics look amazing and make this game even prettier than it was before.

Just like the Wii U version, but better in all ways. Just the fact that you can take it on the go, makes it amazing.

It’s a blast with multiplayer. We’ve unlocked all the vehicles and accessories but that doesn’t matter, the amazing tracks and fun music never get old. My one complaint: the computer cheats.... When trying to unlock all the stars in Grand Prix mode you can be in first place the entire race then the computer will bombard you with blue shells, red shells and lightening before you can cross the finish line. I’ve lost so many races that way, it gets annoying. On my second try the computer calms down, so not too bad.

I've been a fan of the Mario Kart series sincentives the SNES and this is the best of them all. Fun with friends, by yourself or online.

This is a very nostalgic game to play with family and friends! I love racing against my fiance

Really good game to play with family and friends. The mechanics are very simple so even a 5 year old can play this. The maps are really nice and the pack with the old ones is even better really good game in my opinion.

Having not played any Mario Kart since 64, I'm pleasantly surprised at the graphic quality as well as the ease of playing for beginners
