Obviously it’s Nintendo you can’t go wrong fun and worth every penny when on sale

U brought this game for my nephew birthday and he loves it so much. Every time he plays it I see the joy in his eyes, so thank you best buy

What can be said, it is fun. It is easy to pick for all ages

Awesone game, best Mario Kart yet! Great on the go w/ the Switch!

This Mario Kart is a lot of fun...great graphics and race tracks!

I was a fan of Mario Kart 8 for the Wii U, it was pretty much the only game I played on the system until I sold it off. Nintendo has another hit on their hands with Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. Not only does it have better graphics than the Wii U version but it's smoother (I experienced some frame rate drops on the Wii U) but there are new tracks and the smart steering feature makes it so kids and inexperienced players can have fun. There are more characters this time around (every DLC character for the Wii U version is included with the Switch edition), three new vehicles, you can carry two items at once, and the game runs smoothly at 1080p when using the dock. You can play locally with up to 4 people and there's support for up to 12 people online. I've played in my office with four people and it was a fun experience. The Switch's display was a little hard to crowd around but it was still fun. Anyone with a Switch should get this game, it is the second definitive title that every Switch owner should have. It's fun, the graphics are great, and everything has been unlocked from the Wii U version. If you haven't picked this game up by now, do yourself a favor and buy it. It's a great party game and the best entry in the Mario Kart franchise.

Love playing this game with my daughter. Very easy

Fun game like racing with the family and playing online live against others its real fun game love mario kart.and game is decent packaging came out nice no problems.

Definitely one of the first games to buy with the Nintendo Switch. Since the Switch comes with two JoyCons, you can automatically have two players with the game. Excellent controls and has replayability with the different stages, customization of characters, unlockable characters, customization of vehicles, and fun multiplayer game scenarios.

Although this version is pretty identical to the Wii U version, it adds a lot of little nice changes that I feel that are worth purchasing if you had previously owned this game. You had the addition of a few new racers, the change in gameplay by allowing the player to hold two items at once, the Boo item making its return from MK64, the addition of smart steering and auto accleration to allow newcomers to play with series veterans, a solid 60FPS as opposed to the 59FPS on the WiiU, 1080p HD graphics when the console is docked/ 720p HD when the console is undocked as opposed to the native 720p HD on the WiiU, and of course the big addition, a much needed fixed up battle mode with 5 new courses and 3 retro courses with 5 different modes: Classic Battle, Bob-Omb Battle, Shine Thief, Coin Runners, and Renegade Round-up (essentially cops and robbers). I can't say if this buy is for everyone because I know people see it as buying the same game again, but I feel personally it has added enough to make it worth buying and it definitely stands out as the definitive version of this game. And for anyone who has yet to own this game in any form, I'd highly, highly recommend buying as this is easily one of the best Mario Karts Nintendo has put out.

Great graphics and fun for the family. Easy to play as well

My grandchild and i played this game for at least two hours it was lots of fun.

Great game, a lot of fun characters and courses to play.

Our 12 year old grandson was getting a Switch for Christmas. We found out at the last minute. Only store that had one available was Best Buy. I ordered online and went down and picked it up 2 hours later. Our grandson loved it and all of us are playing it from 12 to 78 years old. It is a fun game and keeps you on your toes.

Another great Mario Kart game. This one has all new tracks as well as all those classic tracks we all know and love.

The controls are small but so much fun for my family and friends!

Fun exciting great game play and easy to pick up fun multi player

One of my first picks because the multiplayer value is insane, and one of my favorites! 48 classic races from systems past and a few new ones to boot. It takes full advantage of the switch's online abilities to allow you to race others, or their ghost data, from around the world! Racing through the Hyrulian castle is fun and there's a few Animal Crossing themed courses! A whole new cast of available characters outside of just Mario and friends, including Splatoon, Animal Crossing, Legend of Zelda, and some I don't recognize. Additionally, Nintendo sent me an email with a special pc background for buying the game! It's really nice on my desktop though admittedly it's a little hard to see my icons now xD It's the same image from the game cover. Definitely a favorite--I spent all night playing and unlocking new cars and wheels and parachutes. So far I've won all the 50cc trophies but I'm going to need a while to get the 100cc ones.

Mario kart is back again with a great edition. New races, new characters. Players are given the option to select their vehicles and race against each other and the computer. Great game!

I spent a lot of time playing Mario Kart for the Nintendo DS, so moving on to this game was a huge upgrade. It is graphically impressive, and the gameplay is very solid. I love that additions while staying true to the mechanics of previous iterations. A very fun game to play with friends.
