Customer Ratings & Reviews

A must have game for the Nintendo Switch. Loads of tracks. Fun to play online with friends.

It's Mario Kart, baby! You love it or you don't. It's got plenty of fun out of the box, with additional DLC to expand it. Graphics and controls are on point.

Great playing experience solo or with friends. Includes 48 tracks and an array of characters

Really fun to play this with friends. The graphics are great and the tracks are pretty unique.

EXCELLENT GRAPHICS AND CAN PLAY BOTH PORTABLE AND ON THE BIG SCREEN. PURCHASED ON SALE AS WELL

Fun game, lots of different tracks, multiplayer, easy to maneuver. Very pleased with the game.

Love this game, love playing mario kart on my switch when im in the airplanes

This is one of the best Mario Brothers games out there and very user friendly. Highly recommended.

I have 3 girls age range from 5-15 whom never played video games and this was easy for them to learn and fun for them to enjoy together.

I have already put over 100 hours into Mario Kart 8. I've played each course countless times, races as every character, unlocked it all. And yet I still bought Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and feel like it was the right call, as it takes a game that is already excellent and shores up every single weakness (Battle mode, kart switching online) while adding a few things just for fun (purple sparks, new characters and vehicles). It's the definitive edition of what was previously the best Mario Kart ever. It's worth buying and playing all over again.

Kids love the game. Seems like a lot of fun. Multiple player supported.

Tons of fun! Enjoyed playing with my kids. Tracks are great.

Really great gaming experience. Smooth as butter, great music, fun sound effects, very immersive. We've come a long way from Kart 64. I haven't really played much video games since the N64 (skipped both the Wii and WiiU, so I kinda feel like an old man jumping back into the World of Nintendo). It's made me feel like a kid again, and with how much stress I've been under these last few years with my health... that's a pretty big deal to me. Thank you, Nintendo.

We didn’t get to play this game as a family much until the coronavirus hit in Spring of 2020. Previously, my daughter had fun playing with a friend. But I have never laughed so hard taking turns playing the game with a big group of family members. It has great graphics and colors, so it cheered us up, and wasn’t so difficult that non-gamers couldn’t enjoy it. Lots of fun and highly recommended for a variety of skills and age groups.

If you own a switch, or you know of someone who does, buy this game. Full stop. Nothing else to consider. First party games from Nintendo are always a safe bet. They're going to be well designed from the ground up and will deliver a fantastic playing experience, generally for the whole family. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe for the Switch does not fail to impress. You'll have fun with the casualness of it all, but feel free to get into the details and really master the play. Both options work. You'll love this. Just buy it.

Fun game for the whole family Mario Kart has come a long way. We love all the new charterers

Colorful, engaging worlds and tracks, and interesting, fun characters and vehicle options make this enjoyment for everyone!

If you played it on the Wii U, this is the same version with DLC and a little boost to the visuals. It's still impressive and fun, and your whole family can play it for hours. There is a lot of content packed into the highly polished game, and the core gameplay is still fantastic. The versus mode is still not great, but the entire package is definitely worth the price.

I bought Mario Kart 8 on the Wii U when it originally came out (actually bought a Wii U for it!) and loved it. I was disappointed by the lack of a decent battle mode, but the Deluxe version for the Switch changed all that! The battle modes are tons of fun and it's awesome that they included all of the original DLC in this game from the start. Online experience is a little rough (lots of disconnects) but the game itself is great. Must have for all Switch owners! It's great to be able to pop off your joy-cons and play 2 player on the go!

It's still fun to play with friends and family to this day! I am now 30 years old and still love the nostalgic and fun times I get with playing this game.
