    Great game to play with my kids. We play as a family several nights a week before bed if homework gets done.

    This game is the deluxe edition from the get-go. You get all the characters and a beautiful high resolution display to trip your friends over with a banana peel. Give it a go, and get this game today. Bring it anywhere with some extra joycons and youve got yourself a fun game to play with almost no setup required.

    Mario Kart 8 is quite the aging game, but it'll be hard to beat. Courses are fun, mechanics are easy to grasp. One of the staples for couch co-op.

    Any version of Mario Kart is always fun, and each version that comes out looks better than the previous. The only thing that isn't great is the DLC for extra courses, but you really don't need it.

    Mario Kart is like a test of friendship. If you still love your friends after playing this then you can be friends for life. Nintendo has a habit of making games so amazing and at times can be completely frustrating due to the randomness. Embrace it, and enjoy.

    Should not have waited as long as I did to buy the game. 10/10, guess DLCs will only be released now rather than actually physical games.

    This game is a must have if you own a Nintendo Switch even if you own it for the Wii U because Mario Kart 8 on the go is amazing. So much content is packed into the game with some nice new characters and karts and a better battle mode. The graphics are very nice and the game runs perfectly even in handheld mode.

    If you own a switch, then this game is required to be owned and needs to be part of your game library. The graphics are great and the game play is very fun. Also, it's fun to play against friends and family online.

    This game has literally brought back my childhood. The graphics are a little smoothed about overall the only difference between these and the original is that you’re playing on the Nintendo Switch! 10/10 would recommend for new and veteran gamers alike!

    The only problem is some desych issue using the joy con grip. It’s only done it on this game too. I assume it’s that the grip gets unconnected your one of the joycons when pressing down on both? Otherwise it’s a great Gabe and good amount of cool new tracks.

    I mean...who doesn't love Mario Kart? Great game for the whole family. This is one of those games that is more fun when played with others. I wouldn't buy it if you're planning on playing solo, but if racing games are your thing then go for it!
