Customer Ratings & Reviews

Absolutely wonderful Mario Kart game! The graphics are great, especially the base tracks. I've spent way too many hours playing this game... A must-have title for the Nintendo Switch!

The switch version of MK is nearly identical to the WiiU- the tracks and graphics are great & visually incredible. The only gripe my husband and I have is playing with the tiny switch controllers... we've adjusted the settings to disable the tilt/other auto functions to improve our experience. In the end, I think we might invest in a pro controller or the wheel apparatus to play more comfortably. However, I have to say that the game itself is fun & family friendly!

Great game reminds me my childhood can’t wait to play this with the kids

My some favorite game til this day. I wish they would constantly add new tracks

My kids love the new Mario Kart! Lots of tracks and characters for them to choose from. Keeps them entertained.

This is one of the funnest versions of Mario Kart I have played. Love all of the new tracks and characters.

This has to be top tier Mario Kart experience. I purchased this digitally and play it on a regular basis with the family. I ultimately had to get the physical copy. Nintendo has done a great job adding additional content for drivers and tracks. Everyone needs to experience this ultimate Mario Kart experience. Recommended for all ages. Especially with the auto turn and acceleration assist. My 3 year old daughter was able to play and feel like she was part of the experience.

When this game came to the Wii U a few years back, at that time it was one of if not the best game on the system. The fact you can now get this game plus all of the DLC on top of the portability aspect makes it an absolute no brainer for anyone who digs racing games. The game can cater to any age group and supports online play as well as local multiplayer. If you own a Switch, do yourself a favor and pick this up, especially if you never played the Wii U version.

Amazing game. Bought this for a friend and we love playing it!

We have mariokart 8 for the wiiU but my husband wanted to get a switch before the christmas rush, so I grabbed a copy of mariokart 8 deluxe and am very happy with it. The graphics are great, and the portability is excellent. Playing with one other person while we're waiting for an event to start, and then being able to pause the game and finish it later is fantastic. Probably would be difficult to play more than two people unless you plugged into a TV.

Love this game. Actually received the game before the console came in. We enjoyed previous Mario Kart games on Wii and this takes it a step further (though it has some of the old courses also). We play in our house and have played it online against random people as well as directly with our daughter in Taiwan. Easy to learn, but also fun to try and master. Highly recommend.

A lot of fun to play. Multiplayer is a blast. A lot of tracks and carts and characters

I love this game. I play it all the time with my friends. Definitely one of my best purchases.

Welcome to Mario kart! So much fun. Amazing graphics, lots of cart customization, plenty of characters.

Love the game, can spend hours trying to pass 220k...Also love the battle more and the different types of battle modes available. Theirs tons of tracks (old and new), characters and cars to choose from. I had this item delivered and missed the delivery, but got in contact w ith the delivery person and they came back and dropped it of. overall nice experience.

Mario Kart has always been a fun, party game and 8 is no different. In fact, it's been a while since I've played a Mario Kart game and enjoyed it as much as this installment. With new tracks and revisited scenary, 8 has plenty for you to play through. Seeing familiar and new faces on the roster is a always a plus, and the the ability to customize your vehicle's performance to fit your racing or battling needs is excellent!

This video game is fun to just sit and play! It is worth it!

Very nice game keeps the kids busy for hours and it’s fun for the whole family

Before I get into my personal opinion I'd like to address the questions I had before buying. Hopefully it will help somebody. What's the difference between the Wii u version and the switch version? The switch version has everything the Wii u version has plus... New battle mode courses, new characters, up to 8 player local wireless multiplayer, an optional smart steering feature that helps new players stay on track, more items and characters can now carry two items at a time. How is the deluxe version any different? Deluxe is compatible with Animal Crossing and Splatoon amiibo. In my opinion the best part is the deluxe version includes all the DLC from the Wii U version. Who doesn't want a Mercedes kart? ;) Now that I got that out of the way onto my personal opinion. I never thought I'd like any Mario Kart game as much as I like Mario Kart 64. Then I reluctantly purchased this title. I'm pleasantly surprised! This is so much fun to play with my friends, family and on my own. It's a beautiful fresh spin on a classic series, done properly. Everything from the variety of characters and revamped battle mode to the beautiful graphics. It's what the Wii u version should have been. Experiencing battle mode with GameCubes Luigi's Mansion, SNES Battle Course 1 and the boo item struck me with nostalgia. Fresh enough for my nephews and nostalgic enough for me. I highly recommend this game for all ages. My elderly father and young nephews enjoy it equally. That speaks volumes.
