Customer Ratings & Reviews

I didn't think I was going to get this one - I already have the Wii U version. But my son really really wanted it and he was right; this is the definitive Mario Kart that should be a part of everyone's Switch collection.

I love this game. I have been able to crank out tons of hours with it alone and with friends.

Its Mario Kart 8 so you know its great! Absolutely love it....

characters in the games are big hit with all the family members. lots of things to do to keep you interested and challenged. would definitely recommend this game to friends and family.

Amazing graphics. Very cute charm. And plenty of characters and race categories to choose from this is an absolute must own. I play this with my 4 year old daughter and she loves it.

This is my second time buying this game - had it and the expansion on the Wii U. Still a beautiful game years after it was released and a great way to engage with my young son and enter him into the world of Mario. Controls are easy - you can have really basic controls if you use the joycons or more advanced if you use the pro controller or the included adapter that turns 2 joycons into a standard controller. The game’s online functionality keeps your kids safe from anyone acting inappropriately but does not protect them from bad drivers. Overall a wholesome recommendation!

This is an update of the very excellent mario kart 8 from the Wii U. If you loved it on the wii u then you'll love it on the switch. Excellent graphics, tons of tracks, updated battle mode, and lots of fun for everyone.

I've skipped the last couple of Mario carts (double dash was the last one for me). This game is true to form, easy to play for the young ones, great polish on an overall classic game formula. Another hit for the switch.

This blows all the other versions out of the water. It is an upgrade from the Wii U version but do keep in mind all the characters and tracks come unlocked from the start so that may be a pro or con for you.

What can I say. If you love Mario Kart, you'll love this game. Great graphics, gameplay and fun. It's made even better now that you can take it wherever you want since it's on the Switch. Must buy if you own a Switch.

I owned Mario cart 8 on Wii U and all the dlc. I love the new battle modes and the splatoon map and characters. I like being able to take this anywhere and challenge others. There's no other racing game as fun as this.

Sold my Wii U version so I could get the switch version for one main reason: portability. I cannot believe I can play this game as a handheld. Amazing graphics and gameplay and some of the best tracks in the franchise.

Played Mario Kart on the wii and this game is a continuation of the wii version, but with MUCH better graphics. We also start with more tracks to play and more options to customize the vehicle you race with.

It's simply the best Mario Kart made thus far. If you like any of the previous entries, you will love Mario Kart 8! Add Switch portability, and you've got yourself a great time anywhere you want to play!

Great game to play on the switch system. Easy to play and very fun.

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe for the Nintendo Switch is the kind of game that brings people together from kids to adults. Parents can play this game with their kids, kids can play with their friends, and adults can play it with their family. Tip- You might already know this but when you're racing and you drift at a corner long enough your exhaust sparks and ignites a speed boost. I wish someone told me that a long time ago. Also, if you play with two or more players it only recognizes one joy con per person. Please correct me if they changed it. CONCLUSION- Racing against friends is fun and the best mode is battle where you have to pop the other players balloons to win hitting them with red, green, blue shells and more.

Great game a must have for switch. If Nintendo see this I’m only reviewing because Best Buy keeps spamming my email with “review your purchases and get a 400$ gift card”. I want to see if the gift card is real or some free review scam. Best Buy protection is a must need for all electronics If you follow my reviews, I’ll mention if I ever get a 400$ gift card. (Like the one they promise in the emails)

It's Mario Kart. The same one that you played on WiiU, but with more stuff, and portable. If that sounds good, jump on it because it's a beautiful, perfect port. If that sounds like a waste of money, resist buying it.

Tons of tracks, very well polished mario kart experience. Still a ton of fun to play with friends. Would like to see the series have some new developments as it has become a reliable but stale formula.
