its a fun game to play w the whole family. has feature to help the non gamers be competitive and create good fun .

Fun for the whole family, I love being able to play online with my family in other states. Easy levels for young kids and inexperienced parents

My aunt had this game on the Wii (non deluxe version) and we knew about the Mario Kart games, but I've played these games for years and loved this game. I wasn't any less disappointed in the Switch version. This is a core game I 100% recommend grabbing and is great fun with a group of 4 to play. The options to help beginners/younger players make it less frustrating and more fun for everyone to play as well. I couldn't recommend a console game on any platform more than I do this game..

My 5 year old loves this game, easy for even the young age to play. Fun, and entertaining

I've grown up on this game and this version is keeping it fun! Good stuff, lots of tracks car upgrades and characters.

Great game as advertised. No issues graphics are phenomenal.

Great game and a good game to have fun with friends and family

This game was already fantastic on the Wii-U, but since that system was very undersold, many people were not able to appreciate this fantastic game. Luckily, Nintendo has made the great decision to re-release the Wii-U's best games on the Switch, and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is the first such game. All the DLC is included, extra modes, including a better battle mode, have been added, and the graphics even seem slightly tweaked. And the best part? Absolute portability! Play it anywhere!

I bought this game because I wanted to play Mario kart racing games likes I used to when I was little. I love that the game is similar to the original racing games. I love all the different maps and characters there is to choose from. It is very exciting to be able to play multi-player on my new Nintendo switch.

Fun for friends and family, easy to play, and always fun our kids lost our other one just bought replacement lol

Love the game for years...every version is more fun than the last...

My son absolutely loves it. We play it every day now.

The Mario Kart series gets getting better and better. More characters, features and tracks. You should have it.

Love this game! Mario Kart is a classic and I love all of them!

If you bought this game on the Wii U, then you already know how great it is. If not, then you are probably in for a pleasant surprise. It brings everything that the Wii U version had with it plus adds a few Battle Modes. It's a great game for either those that enjoy competition or people who just want to relax and have some fun. While it may just seem like another racing game, there are all sorts of hidden shortcuts and fun surprises along the way.

I never owned a Wii but if you do then you must've owned and played this at one point. I'll speak to this version of the game and it's really fun. A lot of characters to choose from, you unlock more items for your vehicles the more you complete cups, and if you make a tournament for your friends then I see this game giving you many hours of gameplay. Not worth it for the full price though, sorry nintendo.

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!
