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.

Love it, was always a huge fan of the 64 Mario Kart and was able to play the old courses.

We love it!! It was super fun. The powers caught us off guard and the tracks are awesome!

my son is very happy with this game! fun and engaging

I'm not sure if I'm just that good at Mario Kart (there's no way I am) or if this is just very easy, as there's no CPU difficulty setting and I often end up lapping other karts. It's fun with friends, though.

We bought this game so that the family can play together, and have fun on nights at home. I have been playing this series of games since Super Mario Kart came out on the Super Nintendo in the early 90's. For anyone who grew up with this series of game, it will not disappoint. All of the popular power-ups are here, which can make the game a bit challenging and fun. The mechanics are easy enough for young children to pick up on. My 6 and 9 year old needed little practice to start playing the game. There is enough variation of game play to keep you coming back, but classic versus racing seems to be the most popular for my family. I think many would enjoy this game, it's simple mechanics, fun battle modes, etc. It has replay value and if you have kids and want to share a fun experience I would pick it up.

Great game ! Fun to play wit friends really enjoy it with the upgraded graffics

Great game, but a bit on the pricey side since Nintendo doesn't believe in discounting anything they produce. Great game, because of its high price I did not give it 5 stars, but that's because at such a high price it should include a lot more. While it's definitely a fun game, it gets repetitive really quickly. I only play it when others come over.

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

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.

Loads of fun! A must for Switch owners, especially if you are a fan of previous Mario Kart titles. So many characters, vehicles, and tracks to play with!

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.

It’s a really fun game to play with others. You can choose different characters.

Enjoyable game for the switch, a must have for your collection. Very simple to play and keep family and guests entertained.

Bought the game for my son. He’s a huge Mario fan! Take every min we can to race and do battle mode against each other

Well worth the price. It is a great family game that can even be enjoyed with little ones. There is a feature where the karts will drive themselves if you have little ones who want to participate but don't have the coordination for games. A wide selection of characters and vehicles keep little ones excited and the colors and graphics keep them engaged.

this has always been one of my favorite games since I was a kid! I love how the original characters and all their attributes are given a good amount of detail. Very fun game, and very easy to play with my 5 year old!

I love this game. I play it all the time with my friends. Definitely one of my best purchases.

There isn't much to dislike here. The gameplay is solid, the track designs are beautiful, and the replay ability is endless. With the Switch, you can play Mario Kart with someone anywhere you are because the joycons can be used as two controllers. I visited a girl in the hospital, and brought it with me, and we played this game together. For owners of the Switch, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is a must have game.
