Customer Ratings & Reviews

So many different tracks new and old. Just to bad all new games make you buy more after spending so much already

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!

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.

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.

All the great features on Mario Kart but truly mobile and performing amazing. Great for at home co op couch play, or long flights/rides.

Fun game for all the family, I would recommend it!

It's fun. Good tracks. Fun with other people. Lot's of characters to choose from.

This game is perfect for a get together or party and has decent single player content.

Love the fact it's a game I can play with my kids and have a friendly race.

The game is great with friends I love playing it with others right next to me. Other than that, I agree with some of the other reviews that this game could use some major improvements. They have relegated the extra power ups so that you only get them if you are in certain positions. So if you are in first you never get shells or invincibility stars or anything like that. So, holding onto the first position puts you at a disadvantage? I would think everyone behind you gunning for your spot was enough of a disadvantage. Really, this does not affect the person in front as much as much as you would expect though because those behind him are now in a firing range where everyone has weapons and are busy slowing each other down. So, if you manage to get out front with a bit of headway its usually pretty easy to win otherwise if your stuck with the masses it can get pretty difficult. I would prefer a fully random draw of power ups. For the more battle royal missions they have added cheap gimmick spots into the maps such as one where there is a ramp onto the walls that players can just stop on top of and take a rest and others cant acually reach those players without going out of their ways to aim just for them.

A lot of fun. More racing tracks plus bonus characters you don't need to buy

I loved this game on the Wii U so I decided to pick it up for my Switch and it's even better. It comes with all of previously released DLC and a couple changes to the gameplay like being able to hold 2 items, smart steering which makes it harder to fall off and auto accelerate which makes the vehicle accelerate automatically, these are great for beginners and kids.

I like that it has all the tracks and characters on here. I wish I could have unlocked them instead. Fun to play online with friends!

I recently bought a Switch and had been wanting to get this game as one of the first games for my Switch. Once I saw it on sale, I grabbed it up and play it weekly! I haven’t started multiplayer but I have enjoyed getting used to the tracks. If you have or are thinking of getting a Switch, add this to your list.

Had to buy multiple of these to play online with family members that I grew up with. Connecting with them around the world on the Nintendo family expansion plan and still play the older snes and n64 versions on the switch too. Thanks Nintendo and Best Buy!

Mario Kart 8 was already among the best Mario Kart games ever with its original release on the Wii U. This enhanced Switch port has all DLC characters and tracks unlocked from the start, as well as additional characters and a completely revamped Battle Mode. If you are a Mario Kart fan, or even just a fan of arcade-style racing, you owe it to yourself to buy this game.

Great fun for the whole family! Everyone loves racing cars and you can play with multiple people.

This game is a fun addition to family game night. Everyone had a blast and its very easy to learn.

I really enjoy playing this game with my family. There are a lot of different tracks, characters, vehicles, etc. so you can always do something different.
