Mario Kart 8 Deluxe brings all the fun from Mario Kart 8 and all the extra DLC to the switch. It's an extremely fun and great racing game for individuals of all ages to simply pick it up and play. The ability to bring it and play it on the go with the switch makes this a no brainer even for those who are not long time fans of the Mario Kart series. I highly recommend this game to anyone with a Switch.

I'm not especially good at racing games but I love playing Mario Kart. Its so much fun with all the different items you can use that change the tides of the game. With new characters and maps, and being able to play on the go, this game feels at home on the switch

Great game, I would highly recommend this game, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe!

I've played all Mario Kart games. I believe this is the second best Mario Kart game after the Gamecube one. There are so many characters and vehicle customization to choose from. Lots of racing maps and battle maps... There's just so many hours of packed fun into this little cartridge. You will never go wrong with buying Mario Kart. Everyone from young kids to grandparents can pick it up and have a great time.

My wife and I surprised our 3 daughters ages 18, 14. and 12 each a copy of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe in their stockings Christmas morning for their also new Nintendo Switch Lite units so they could all play together. These girls pretty much played non-stop all of Christmas Day and into the wee hours of the next morning and have had so much fun and laughter with each other that it brought joy to our hearts to here them enjoying the game battling it out. They said they have had no glitches and thoroughly enjoy the game. They have played it everyday now for a week for at least 3-4 hours at a time while still on school break. Got the game on sale online on Christmas Eve at Best Buy for $45 a copy so it was like Buy 2 Get 1 Free in my book especially since our local BB (10 minutes from the house) had the copies in stock. I bought online drive straight to the store order was ready within 15 minutes curbside pickup was awesome as well. Waited less than 5 minutes for delivery. Within 1 hour I had ordered & purchased online, and received the games in time to stick in their stockings undetected. Best game investment of 2020 Christmas.

I love playing this game it is really fun and I enjoy it a lot.

Mario Kart 8 deluxe is an update of the wii u game. So what do you get new? Battle mode that is alot of fun New characters Double item slots Increase to 1080p An assist mode for small children So before I start grab the mario and luigi steering wheels for the Switch if you have kids. This is the best way to play if you have one joycon and is really fun to boot. Remember the joy cons are split up for two player use. They are the best wheels for this and motion controls work like magic. My kids won't play without them, and it's easy enough a 3 yo can be competitive. And he is. As for the game itself. It's simply the best Mario Kart ever. Better than double dash or 64. Some of the courses feel much lower quality than others, but with some classic courses in here it can hit you with nostalgia. Well you are bound to have a good time. Splatoon characters fit surprisingly well, and battle mode is s no brainer. But let's not play down this is a full scale Mario Kart that can go to grandmas, and can be played while you drive there. If you have a Switch, the choice is simple. Buy it.

If you missed this on the Wii U, pick it up on the switch! Even if you picked it up on the Wii U two things make this a must buy: local lan multiplayer and a true battle mode. These two things make the repurchase a no brainer. Add in the ability to go mobile, and yeah. Every Sunday, we set up 4 Tv's and do 8 player local lan two people on a tv. So fun!

Been a fan of Mario Kart since its Wii incarnation. This is easily the family favorite. I love the gameplay. The characters that I love are back. The circuits got a fresh update, but I was pleasantly surprised that my favorites are also back in this game (Moo Moo Meadows, Rainbow Road)

I played the original mario kart on SNES when I was in 1st grade, andliretally havent played mario kart since then because I basicallyskippes an entire two decades of gaming consoles. But MK 8 blew my mind-- in graphics, crazy tracks, scenery, the diversity in karts and drivers and gliders (all of which have their own stats). A true masterpiece.

great game that really brings old versions with new versions all together. great for generations to enjoy and reminisce and embrace the exciting new levels!

Awesome game love it. The different levels are all exciting and the acess to expand on the game is a great benfit too. It does bring back nastolga if you have been playing mario kart for awhile.

Although it is a shame those who previously purchased this game on Wii U, myself included, have to pay full price for this game again, I think it's worth the price of readmission. The revamped battle system and added features made it easy to justify this purchase. Not to mention, the ability to take it anywhere I go now. No buyers remorse here. This game is so good, I don't mind throwing my money at it.

This deluxe version of the Wii-U classic is well worth purchasing again for the Switch. Not only does it come with all DLC from the Wii-U, adds a few new features like double items and new characters, adds a real battle mode missing from the Wii-U version, but it also allows you to play this master piece on the go. It's a massive leap in on the go Mario Kart from Mario Kart 7 on the 3DS to this version.

First of all if you haven't played Mario Kart 8 for the Wii U then for sure buy this game. It is the best Mario Kart that has been made to date. I had bought this for $60 before for the Wii U. It was worth paying that price again for the Switch. I, at this point only have 2 games for the switch, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and Zelda: Breath of the Wild. I feel like from what i have played, the Mario Kart game feels like you take full advantage of the Switch. When I play Zelda on the go I always feel like I am losing a little something because that game feels better to me when it is played on a big screen. Mario Kart looks amazing on a big screen but I don't feel like i am sacrificing anything when playing it on the go. It is the perfect game for that. I had even bought all the DLC on the Wii U for the game before. SO the tracks and characters that are all unlocked with the game now I had already had except for the all new ones like Bowser Jr. Battle Mode is so much better now and way more fun playing against people at home. The ability to carry two items gives a bit more strategy to the game and really helps if you are used to be ahead in a race and only getting coins because of your position. It does not feel like a whole new game to me, which would normally make me say it isn't worth spending another $60 on the game but the fact that it makes the Switch feel good to play on the go and not feeling like I am making that big screen sacrifice is worth the money to me.

Who doesn't love Mario Kart, Great courses, and as always multiplayer is epic with friends and families of all ages

Awesome game! Such a fun game and the kids won’t put it down.
