Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is the first Mario kart racing game that my 4-year-old daughter has ever played and absolutely loves this game, the graphics and the ease of play and all the different customizable racers that can be used with characters as well, We love, love this game...

I was worried when I saw this was just going to be a remaster of MK 8 for the Wii U (which was great). It is that and so much more. It is almost like it was completely designed for the switch. I will say that the wheels for the JoyCon's are very small and hard to get used to but using them as normal controllers works great.

We had a Mario Kart 8 Deluxe game for our old Wii game. When we finally updated to the Switch, we wanted to replace the olde Mario Kart game. We played it today and it is very enjoyable and easy to play for people who are beginners with gaming.

This is such a fun game across all platforms. I assumed it would be just like playing on the wii, but this game has been revamped and is even more fun than the old version!! My kids hardly get alone, but they get together and have the best time playing together with this game. Game changer!

My 6 year old has been playing this since he was 4. He loves this game.

I absolutely love this game. It brings back all of the old favorites from across their family of consoles. There is nothing short of entertainment for the whole family. You can also play online against other players.

Mario Kart hasn't changed all that much since its debut on the SNES. This is another update to that - better graphics, more cars, more characters. But it's still every bit as fun as previous versions.

Mario Kart 8 is arguably the best Mario Kart game yet. The Deluxe version is even better. There isn't much new content in the game as far as tracks or characters (only a couple new characters), but the battle mode has been completely redone and is very fun. The game is beautiful and so much fun. Have a Switch? Buy this.

This is probably the most complete mario kart game ever. It has tons of tracks, new and old, and tons of characters to choose from. It can get a little confusing customizing your vehicle, but once you get the hang of it and know what you like in a kart, it's pretty simple. Every track is unique in layout, theme, and difficulty. It can get a little trippy going from regular, to flying, to underwater, to anti gravity but once you play through the tracks and know what to expect it makes the experience alot more enjoyable. I could never go back to just plain racing on roads. Items are typical and they're good for making races chaotic and random, but you can turn them off as well to test your racing skills. It's a blast playing with friends and very intense if you're all about the same skill level. Neck and neck races will happen often and it's alot of fun.

As with most Nintendo franchise games, the newest will be updated for graphics and performance, but balancing the core of these games with something new is what keeps customers loyal in my opinion. Mario Kart and games like it will keep me coming back so long as the games don't become copy pasta. DLC is the thing and season passes are becoming a standard practice, but add on content can only go so far. A revisit to replayability is needed to keep the cost of games down otherwise we won't buy big titles at release date and wait for sales or overall discounts. PS. Need advice on the game before buying? Is that why you are reading? Ok, here it is, if you've never played a Mario Kart before get this one. If you've played a Mario Kart before get this one. If you like toon racing games with items and additional modes like battle or capture the flag, get this one. If you like any of the Nintendo Mario franchise characters get this one. More people playing equals more fun so get your friends.

I love how they are racing each other. And a lot of characters to choose from. It's a family game and we enjoy playing with our daughter. It's Fun and cute Mario game! I love it!

Mario Kart 8 deluxe for the Nintendo Switch is a fantastic addition to the Switch library. The game expands from it's original counterpart, adding new characters and a new expansive battle mode. Newcomers to Mario Kart or people who missed on Mario Kart 8 will be most certainly be satisfied with this game. However, to those who already own Mario Kart 8, the game does not really add enough to rebuy the game. While the new battle mode is great it's not really worth the $60 dollar price tag and the new characters are also a good reason for the price tag either, it's real selling point is that it's now portable but if your switch is 90% home console. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe could be a skippable title

Highly recommend this Mark Kart over the Wii U because the new game play. This games reminds me of the old mario game with the two item feature. New character, better graphics with the switch. Worth getting it even if you own the one for Wii U. This is the best Mario Kart ever and can’t wait for the next one.

This version of Mariokart is so different from what I remember on the N64, but is so fun! There are so many new things for us to try!

Love this product, we take it anywhere we go. Light and easy to fit in backpack

My very first Nintendo game was Super Mario Kart. Mario Kart is still my go-to game for multi-player fun on Nintendo consoles. This one is very familiar since it is very much like the Wii U game but now I can take it anywhere. The new feature to keep racers on the track automatically is great for young players.

By far the funnest game I play on my new switch! Remotes can be used to steer or you can with the joystick, lots of people can play at one time, amazing graphics, lots of tracks so don’t get easily bored! 10/10 recommend!

The game is really good. It's even worth buying again for those of us who have a Nintendo Wii U version because this one comes with all of the DLC content, better visuals and additional modes not found on the Nintendo Wii U version. Also, this can be taken where ever you go due to the portable nature of the Switch.

This game has really wild and fun courses, a lot of characters and cars to choose from, and great multiplayer.

A fantastic time all around. Whether you have friends to enjoy this game with you or not, there is plenty to do in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, this game is a perfect fit for the casual or hardcore gamer, and potentially the most accessible and fun the Mario Kart series has ever been.
