Customer Ratings & Reviews

One of my first picks because the multiplayer value is insane, and one of my favorites! 48 classic races from systems past and a few new ones to boot. It takes full advantage of the switch's online abilities to allow you to race others, or their ghost data, from around the world! Racing through the Hyrulian castle is fun and there's a few Animal Crossing themed courses! A whole new cast of available characters outside of just Mario and friends, including Splatoon, Animal Crossing, Legend of Zelda, and some I don't recognize. Additionally, Nintendo sent me an email with a special pc background for buying the game! It's really nice on my desktop though admittedly it's a little hard to see my icons now xD It's the same image from the game cover. Definitely a favorite--I spent all night playing and unlocking new cars and wheels and parachutes. So far I've won all the 50cc trophies but I'm going to need a while to get the 100cc ones.

This game is amazing. We bought 2 extra controllers so we can now play 4-player as a family. Even my 3-year-old can play along because of the assisted driving during the races. This is a game you buy the system for - lots of fun to be had learning how each character drivers and using the different vehicles and racing on different tracks.

Fun! Different than the WII version so it took us a a few tries to get used to. But still the same fun with new tracks!

So much fun. Feels just like the old ones. Great on the switch!

Absolutely fantastic. Looks great, plays great and lots of fun.

Well, I bought this one because I'm really well addicted to MK. I already had the Wii U version, so this one doesn't bring too much to the table. However, it's portable. I played this with my wife on the airport as we were making an international flight to Brazil and it was amazing! Everyone was staring at us and asking where I bought that.

The Deluxe Edition lives true to it's name. It has all your favorite tracks newly updated all the way from the SNES. It is a joy to play and the online experience is even better with plenty of support. If you have ever played Mario Kart or this is your first experience, this is a must have on the Switch!

Exciting new tracks, vehicles, and characters. Challenging

If you like to race this is for you. I just sit back and let loose. I like to see how many other drivers I can knock off the road lol. My 5 year old recently beat me and I had to regroup myself and figure out how on Earth did Bowser controlled by a 5 year old could dust me? Anywho it's fun but I wish it had more courses.

This is my first game for the Nintendo Switch and I must say it has been fun playing. My 6 year old loves playing this game, he is just beginning to play games so he plays 50cc and is able to do well. There are all sorts of different game types you can play so it is hard to get bored. I have not yet tried multiplayer but it looks promising.

This is such a fun game and it looks great in the Switch!

Mario Kart has been fun since I started playing it on super Nintendo. Out of the box this is great and with Nintendo adding more tracks makes it even better.

If you've played this on the Wii U, you already know what you're getting. Just now you get every character including DLC unlocked from the get go and this game will still provide hours of fun in either local or online multiplayer. Even playing it with a single Joy-Con for each person is a blast and utilizes the Switch's Joy-Con capabilities.

Mario Kart 8 was a great game on the Wii U I heard. I never owned a Wii U but I did get a Nintendo Switch. This game is a must have to play in between Zelda. Game is easy to learn for all ages and difficult to master over time. Online play for now is a tad buggy, but hopefully gets fixed once Nintendo goes paid for online like other game consoles.

The game is really fun. The last Mario Kart I played was for the N64. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is a big step up. The graphics are great, the gameplay is fluid and easy to pick up. Wish I had the pro controller for more intense play. Thought it was great to see all the old stages too. Definitely recommend if you haven't played Mario Kart in a while.

this is perfect game for the family to have a friendly competition. don't forget to race the grand prix at any level to unlock all the tracks.

Favorite racing game & my 2 year old loves watching is play which is a huge plus!!

Awesome, love it. Hours of fun playing. Got to get the steering wheels

We actually weren't going to purchase this game because we already own it for the Wii U, however, I am very happy that we did. The improvements that have been made were worth it for us, as my daughter is younger (4 years old), so the older version was too difficult for her. We really enjoy playing this game together as a family.

Late adopter to the switch would definitely played plenty of Mario kart 64 back in college. Really cool to see all the throwback tracks in this game. My kids love it too and I like that even the younger one can just keep her finger on the gas and finish the races.
