    Wow this is a fun game for the kids in the family as well as the adults. Easy to set up for almost any age and jump right in. Kids will love the cartoony characters and courses, adults who don't even like games will find themselves acting very competitive after just one race. Cannot recommend enough for a household who is looking for some together fun.

    My children love the game. I was a little skeptical since I'm not familiar with games.

    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!

    What more can you say about Mario Kart 8 deluxe? Infinite replay value and is a recipe for a good time. Game has many modes and will take some time for people to master it. Easy to play, hard to master is the reason why this game stood the test of time.

    Mario Kart 8 is so fun! You can play alone or with a group of people. As always, there's racing as well as battle modes, so you can play whatever you're in the mood for. This game has fun characters, cool vehicles, wheels, and parachutes, as well as fun and colorful raceways/battle arenas. Mario Kart 8 is definitely a must have for your Nintendo Switch collection!

    Doesn’t quite have the old school vibe as the old Mario cards but if you like racing in weird zero gravity like maps then this is the game for you. Even though the game pretty much drives for you I can still beat my kid. 3 decades later, I still got it

    An Excellent Port to an Already Excellent Game

    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.

    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.

    The Game That Ruined My Friendships

    Mario Kart 8 is less of a racing game and more of a chaotic family reunion where everyone brings banana peels and red shells instead of potato salad. One moment you’re gracefully drifting around corners like a professional racer, and the next—BOOM—a blue shell drops out of nowhere and reminds you that life is cruel, and Mario is laughing at your pain. The graphics? Beautiful. The tracks? Insanely creative. The friendships? Non-existent, because nothing says “love you, bro” like hitting your buddy with three green shells and then waving as you cross the finish line. This game has taught me two things: 1. Never trust someone holding a lightning bolt. 2. Luigi’s death stare is the scariest thing in gaming history. 10/10 would rage quit again.

    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.

    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!
