Customer Ratings & Reviews

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.

Had MK8 on the WiiU and the Switch version brings all that fun to the new console plus the expansion pass allows you to enjoy a whole bunch more tracks. Another great installment in the series

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

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

Its great to have this game on the Switch. I loved the original and I was glad that they chose to include all the DLC that came to the original version on the Wii U in the Switch version's retail release. Would recommend if you enjoy racing games and having fun social interations with other people whether playing online or using the Switch's proximity area multiplayer.

Makes for some fun family gaming despite our families competitive nature! Bought the online expansion pack too.

My grandson loves this game its his favorite. Super cute and fun. He is a big Fan of Super Mario had to get this for his switch lite

fun to play with the fam and all the classic tracks

Family fun. Great game. Enjoyed be everyone. Play it everyday.

Love the game! Would recommend for all family gaming!

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

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 game and better on the switch since they improved thw batlle mode

Mario Kart 8 doesn't need an introduction or a review, it is definitely one of the must-have games on the switch platform. A perfect party game that keeps everyone hooked for hours and the race tracks do and mechanics that do not disappoint. I will suggest getting a grip for the joycons though else you will end up with a very sore thumb.

From the moment I popped this game into my Nintendo switch dock and played it off my TV I have been so impressed with just how amazing the graphics look, the gameplay feel and of course the countless amount of different race tracks. The battle mode with 5 balloons is also a positive addition to the MK franchise. A must own for any Mario fan whom owns the switch!

Have been a fan of mario kart since when it came out on the gamecube. Its refreshing and a good feeling when i can still play the game that i had played as a kid, but now as an adult.

My favorite Mario Kart so far. Graphics look great and there's a good variety of courses to choose from. I think it's best to race against other people rather than the computer once you're comfortable with the controls, as it's more challenging. I rarely buy games at retail price, but I think this one's worth it. Especially if you can get the free steelbook too.

My kids love this game... I love this game... My wife loves this game... The last Mario Kart I've played was N64 so this was a huge upgrade for us. I have not found any flaws in this game. I love being able to split the controller to 2 and instantly create a fun battle. I also really love being on the go unlike any other game system out there for a game like this.

This game is so awesome, i would recommend this game if you just wanna sit down and have some fun racing. It will definitely bring out the competitor in you, especially in times when you're in first then you're hit with a blue shell seconds later a red one lol. I've only played in hand held mode and it's beautiful, so i imagine it's even better on big screen. Enjoy

Brings back tons of memories and nostalgia. Love the tracks and characters
