Customer Ratings & Reviews

I got this when I purchased the Nintendo Switch for my son for Christmas as his first game for the console. He loves it. It’s great for any age but has option to help children or beginners so they don’t drive off course. Which helped him get used to the game. Good game play and graphics are good also. I’d recommend for any age and anyone. They’ll have a blast with it.

Fun game for the whole family! Local and online co-op play supported.

Good entertainment for the whole family. Lots of levels and mini games to keep you busy. Easy enough for my 6 year old to setup and play on her own as well.

With all 32 original tracks from the Wii U version of Mario Kart 8, the additional 16 that came in the DLC (now all in the base game itself), the revamped and awesome Battle Mode, the largest roster of characters in series history, returning items and double items, and accessibility control options for beginners, this is a Mario Kart game for everyone and the most complete yet.

Easy to play. Awesome family fun!! Go Mario kart8!!

Alot of fun and entertaining game recommended this game for all ages

If you missed Mario Kart 8 on the Wii U, the Switch version is well worth a purchase. You get all of the game's DLC in addition to the base package, plus there are new features that make the game easier to play for all ages, such as steering assist and automatic acceleration. Veteran gamers can disable these functions, but newbies can benefit greatly while they learn the ropes.

Really Cool game. Especially for those that’s not advanced in gaming as I am lol….. It’s a game the family can enjoy, or something you can enjoy by yourself.

Lots of fun for the family. Made my little brother come out of his room.

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

Love the graphics and the new tracks. It’s a perfect game for the switch.

Mario Kart is a long known staple game for Nintendo devices and often played with friends at parties as you can have up to 4 players with customizable characters. This version builds upon previous ones with new characters and for those who are not as skilled at racing, there is a very helpful feature to keep you within bounds of the track. This feature might hinder more experienced players who like taking paths close to the edge or over ramps that go over holes. Overall the design is appealing and the customizability is a fun bonus, fans of the game will enjoy it and beginners will enjoy the ability to pick all the race courses and characters from the very beginning.

fun to play with the fam and all the classic tracks

It's Mario Kart, what more needs to be said? Another solid entry in the Nintendo kart racing series featuring its biggest cast of racers yet, 48 tracks, 4-player local multiplayer, clean online experience, and a host of extra modes to keep things fresh.

This game is a classic and a must have! Mario kart is always awesome

This game is really great for everyone. From casual to hardcore gamers, it's super easy to pick up and play. Having played for hours, it always feels fresh. Couch co-op is hands down the most fun I have had with the game, however online play is also very fun. You can't go wrong with Mario Kart. This game is definitely a must have for any switch owner who likes racing games.

Yahoo! I actually was able to get my 50 year old mum who have had nothing to gaming till now get hooked to this easy to play and fun game

Simply put, if you're a Mario Kart fan this is a no-brainer. If you're like me and skipped out on the WiiU then you have even more reason to get this. And if you like playing with people who aren't ultra-skilled gamers (kids, significant others, etc.) then you will LOVE the inclusion of some of the smart steering and auto acceleration mechanics. Buy it and have a blast.

Great graphics. Better than the original. So much fun.

Lots of cars, lots of tracks, lots of characters. What's not to love?
