Customer Ratings & Reviews

Loads of fun! A must for Switch owners, especially if you are a fan of previous Mario Kart titles. So many characters, vehicles, and tracks to play with!

Great game, but a bit on the pricey side since Nintendo doesn't believe in discounting anything they produce. Great game, because of its high price I did not give it 5 stars, but that's because at such a high price it should include a lot more. While it's definitely a fun game, it gets repetitive really quickly. I only play it when others come over.

Very fun game, bought for nephew and he loves it and has been on it nonstop.

this has always been one of my favorite games since I was a kid! I love how the original characters and all their attributes are given a good amount of detail. Very fun game, and very easy to play with my 5 year old!

There isn't much to dislike here. The gameplay is solid, the track designs are beautiful, and the replay ability is endless. With the Switch, you can play Mario Kart with someone anywhere you are because the joycons can be used as two controllers. I visited a girl in the hospital, and brought it with me, and we played this game together. For owners of the Switch, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is a must have game.

We love it!! It was super fun. The powers caught us off guard and the tracks are awesome!

I was a huge fan of Mario Kart 8 for Wii U. That said, I couldn't enjoy battle mode. Giant courses not designed for battles was never a good formula. Thankfully, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe swaps those courses out for 8 excellent battle arenas. In addition, there are 5 game modes to choose from, so the added variety is appreciated. The rest of the game is a very minor improvement over the original MK8 (all courses including DLC from MK8, new characters to name the most significant). My recommendation is that if you've played MK8 then Deluxe is only worthwhile if you're in it for battle mode. Otherwise the price point is just a little too high for the small increase in content.

Enjoyable game for the switch, a must have for your collection. Very simple to play and keep family and guests entertained.

It is a really fun game! I’m really enjoying playing it!!!

If you missed it on the Wii U because reasons, you need to play it now, especially if you're a Mario kart fan! It's got all the dlc and tracks that were in the Wii U version, but now portable and with the switch you have built in 2 player always, it's great! A must have for any switch owner!

Bought the game for my son. He’s a huge Mario fan! Take every min we can to race and do battle mode against each other

Who cares if switch doesn't have a 4k output? This thing looks amazing! Great tracks. The ability to customise cars is really cool. Since the Wii version they 've modified the way in which you can release objects, making it easier to cover your self while using a single joycons to steer

been a fan of the mario kart series since the super nintendo days. really good graphics, great game to play with friends. With throwback levels remade for the switch, it is really fun for even first time mario kart players. Lots of characters to choose from and many vehicles to choose as well.

I love Mario Kart 8!! It's a great party game, and this version is easier to play. When you fall off the course track, it doesn't take as long to get you back in the game. You could be last for the first 2 laps, and still catch up by the 3rd lap. You just never know how the race will go. :)

This game is a port of the original game that appeared on the Nintendo Wii U. In addition to having all the features of the original, this game now includes all the DLC from the original for free. Plus, there's a few new carts and characters to play as. In addition, the Battle Mode is much better than what is was in the Wii U version, featuring unique battle courses over just reusing racing tracks. Although one minor complaint is that there's no new stages, but that's fine since the base game already has so many. This game is perfect for anyone who never got to experience that Wii U version and want a nice racing game with mayhem and chaos at every turn. The online mode is fun as you show your racing skills around the world. Overall, this was a great purchase.

This game is a ton of fun, not only for my kids but for my wife and I too. Brings back a lot of great memories from when I was a kid. Loves the throw backs to earlier courses.

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe for the Nintendo Switch is an absolute thrill ride that offers a captivating blend of nostalgia and modern gaming excitement. As a long-time fan of the Mario Kart series, I was eagerly anticipating this release, and I'm happy to report that it exceeded all expectations. From the moment I started playing, I was drawn in by the vibrant graphics and meticulously designed tracks. The attention to detail is remarkable, and every course feels like a unique adventure. The roster of characters is impressive, offering a diverse array of options that cater to different playstyles. One of the standout features is the Battle Mode, which has been revamped and enhanced. It's an exhilarating experience that adds an extra layer of competition and camaraderie when playing with friends. The online multiplayer mode is seamless, allowing me to challenge opponents from around the world or join forces with friends for a memorable gaming session. The controls are smooth and responsive, whether using the Joy-Cons, Pro Controller, or handheld mode. The addition of new items and kart customization options keeps the gameplay fresh and engaging. The game strikes the perfect balance between accessibility for newcomers and depth for experienced players. While the single-player experience is captivating, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe truly shines when played with friends and family. The couch co-op multiplayer is an absolute blast, sparking laughter, rivalry, and unforgettable moments. It's the kind of game that brings people together and guarantees hours of entertainment. In conclusion, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is a masterpiece that continues to uphold the legacy of the franchise while delivering a thrilling and modern gaming experience. Whether you're a longtime fan or new to the series, this game is a must-have for any Nintendo Switch owner.

This is hands down the best version of Mario kart 8 that you can get. I love bringing this game around with me and playing a game against my friends on the go. The new characters added to this game are also amazing. I bought this on the Wii U and double dipping was no problem for me and this game.

If you missed out on mario kart on the wii u, this is a must buy. Even if you have played it on the wii u, you have to get it on switch. Plenty of playable characters and challengin tracks. Online have been a great experience as well. So far match pair has been quick and no lag during online play.

The latest Mario Kart (technically a re-release) has all the bells and whistles you want from a casual racing game. Graphics look buttery smooth, gameplay is king, and the online works. Don't be expecting a story or anything, just the same old racing and unlocking stuff. Probably not worth full price considering the game is coming up on it's 8th birthday, but Nintendo games RARELY go down in price. Either way, you're gonna have fun with your friends playing on the couch, watch out for the blue shells...
