    A shiny ride with Mario Kart

    As with most Nintendo franchise games, the newest will be updated for graphics and performance, but balancing the core of these games with something new is what keeps customers loyal in my opinion. Mario Kart and games like it will keep me coming back so long as the games don't become copy pasta. DLC is the thing and season passes are becoming a standard practice, but add on content can only go so far. A revisit to replayability is needed to keep the cost of games down otherwise we won't buy big titles at release date and wait for sales or overall discounts. PS. Need advice on the game before buying? Is that why you are reading? Ok, here it is, if you've never played a Mario Kart before get this one. If you've played a Mario Kart before get this one. If you like toon racing games with items and additional modes like battle or capture the flag, get this one. If you like any of the Nintendo Mario franchise characters get this one. More people playing equals more fun so get your friends.

    Mario Kart 8 deluxe for the Nintendo Switch is a fantastic addition to the Switch library. The game expands from it's original counterpart, adding new characters and a new expansive battle mode. Newcomers to Mario Kart or people who missed on Mario Kart 8 will be most certainly be satisfied with this game. However, to those who already own Mario Kart 8, the game does not really add enough to rebuy the game. While the new battle mode is great it's not really worth the $60 dollar price tag and the new characters are also a good reason for the price tag either, it's real selling point is that it's now portable but if your switch is 90% home console. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe could be a skippable title

    We had a Mario Kart 8 Deluxe game for our old Wii game. When we finally updated to the Switch, we wanted to replace the olde Mario Kart game. We played it today and it is very enjoyable and easy to play for people who are beginners with gaming.

    Highly recommend this Mark Kart over the Wii U because the new game play. This games reminds me of the old mario game with the two item feature. New character, better graphics with the switch. Worth getting it even if you own the one for Wii U. This is the best Mario Kart ever and can’t wait for the next one.

    My very first Nintendo game was Super Mario Kart. Mario Kart is still my go-to game for multi-player fun on Nintendo consoles. This one is very familiar since it is very much like the Wii U game but now I can take it anywhere. The new feature to keep racers on the track automatically is great for young players.

    The game is really good. It's even worth buying again for those of us who have a Nintendo Wii U version because this one comes with all of the DLC content, better visuals and additional modes not found on the Nintendo Wii U version. Also, this can be taken where ever you go due to the portable nature of the Switch.

    Mario kart ultimate

    This is probably the most complete mario kart game ever. It has tons of tracks, new and old, and tons of characters to choose from. It can get a little confusing customizing your vehicle, but once you get the hang of it and know what you like in a kart, it's pretty simple. Every track is unique in layout, theme, and difficulty. It can get a little trippy going from regular, to flying, to underwater, to anti gravity but once you play through the tracks and know what to expect it makes the experience alot more enjoyable. I could never go back to just plain racing on roads. Items are typical and they're good for making races chaotic and random, but you can turn them off as well to test your racing skills. It's a blast playing with friends and very intense if you're all about the same skill level. Neck and neck races will happen often and it's alot of fun.

    A fantastic time all around. Whether you have friends to enjoy this game with you or not, there is plenty to do in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, this game is a perfect fit for the casual or hardcore gamer, and potentially the most accessible and fun the Mario Kart series has ever been.
