Customer Ratings & Reviews

There are lots of characters and tracks in this game. As you collect coins you unlock different tires and carts. The online play is smooth and is a must try part of the game. Very challenging to play others online. The only thing I don’t like about the game is the fact that you don’t unlock characters and tracks. They are readily available from the start of the game. Overall a must buy for any switch owner!

kids enjoyed it very much. Wonderful themes and nice graphic with lots of characters to choose from and the tracksare really fun. really nice upgrade from previous versions.

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!

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.

Love this game! Mario Kart is a classic and I love all of them!

Great game! Good for any age. My different circuits and lots of fun

My Best Buy purchase of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe has been an absolute winner—delivering timeless gameplay with nonstop entertainment. Whether you race casually or competitively, alone or with friends, this game is worth every penny.

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.

Terrific game! Love this game on the 64 when my kids are small and you can play it with them when they’re all grown

Tons of tracks and characters. The Legend of Zelda track and Link are a particular favorite. Looks and plays great on the Switch Lite.

This game is packed with fun! Love all the tracks and it’s a great family game for all experience levels. Certainly a family favorite.

Fun game, I’ve played with my son and it reminds me of the original MarioKart. Some exciting new characters and tracks too

Classic example from Nintendo Switch games you can take this anywhere and also play on your tv. Long lasting fun with upgrades for winning races. Perfect for all age levels and ability. Different game modes allow you to race or battle. Many players and access to play online with friends.

Mario kart 8 for the Wii U was near perfect, but the battle mode was bad. Instead of arenas, it was in regular race tracks, and it wasn't as fun because other opponents were further apart. But in 2017, Mario kart 8 Deluxe was released for Nintendo's newest console, the Nintendo Switch, and it really improved the battle mode by removing the tracks and adding not only arenas, but new modes such as Coin Runners, Renegade Roundup, Shine Runners, and Bob-bomb Blast. There are also more characters, tracks, and items. It is a must game for your Switch console, even if you have the Wii U version.

Just like any of the other Mario karts. Its a fun game to play with family. I really enjoyed the new tracks & characters.

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is a masterpiece of multiplayer racing and a must-have game for Nintendo Switch owners. With its addictive gameplay, memorable characters, and exhilarating tracks, it delivers endless hours of fun and friendly competition. The game features a wide variety of tracks, from classic courses like Mario Circuit and Rainbow Road to new ones like Excitebike Arena and Mount Wario. There are also a variety of modes to choose from, including Grand Prix, Battle Mode, and Time Trials. The controls are simple to learn but difficult to master, and the game is full of strategic depth. There are a variety of items to use, each with its own unique ability, and the tracks are designed to be challenging and rewarding. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is also a great game to play with friends and family. Up to 8 players can race at once, and there are a variety of options to customize the experience. Whether you're a casual gamer or a hardcore racing fan, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is sure to provide hours of enjoyment.

This is so much fun! Super easy to play, but very hard to master, especially playing as multi-player with split joy-con.

Entertaining game for hours, many characters and tracks to choose from. No end to the fun when you can continue the game anywhere! The portability is priceless.

My children love the game. I was a little skeptical since I'm not familiar with games.

This game is an amazingly fun game not just for me as a parent because all of us parents know that there are times it is nice to have a fun game system we can take with us to those long trips we dread but having a fun game to play makes it so much better! I loved the Mario Kart we had for the Wii U and heard that this one was going to have some really cool upgrades and boy were they right! Me and the kids love being able to hold multiple items.. We love the new characters and think this game all around it one of our favorites to use on this game console, try it... You will not be disappointed!!
