Customer Ratings & Reviews

Always loved Mario Kart! I have this game on the Wii U as well as my Switch. Nintendo keeps the game to its roots and constantly provides quality, and fun-new maps to play!

I can't believe how awesome this game looks. I had it on Wii U and was on the fence about getting it but I know im not dusting off that console anytime soon so I got this on the switch and I'm glad I did. Even on the switch's screen the game is noticeably better. Mix that with the traditional mario kart fun and you have hours of multiplayer entertainment in the home or on the go.

It's Mario Kart, what more do I have to say? It is a bit more chaotic since you can now carry two items in game, but it adds to the fun... sometimes. It has all of the DLC from the WiiU version which is fantastic for anyone who missed out. The Inklings and the battle mode are great additions, I haven't really got the chance to try out battle mode but I've heard mostly positive things about it.

Excellente game, super recommended, it was an excellent purchase, i will return to the store soon

With gorgeous visuals, and some of the best casual racing around, this deluxe edition is just the icing on the cake with all the extra DLC from the WiiU version. The visuals are just as good looking on the switch as it is on the TV, and up to two people can play with just the controllers that come with the console itself. Take the plunge and pick it up, even if you purchased it for the WiiU!!

This game never gets old and you can play with more people. Love it!

My grandson loves this game its his favorite. Super cute and fun. He is a big Fan of Super Mario had to get this for his switch lite

This is a great game, and has alot of fun tracks! Fun for all to play!

I got this because as a kid who didn’t play this? But I wanted to get my kid into it and boy did it work. They not just did it right but the graphics and the mechanics are wonderful. Once you’re drifting you won’t drive without it. It’s action packed and I didn’t think 32 race option was needed in a game but I think we proved it was lol

Fun for anyone. Easy to catch on and play. Cant go wrong!

Nintendo Switch Mario Kart 8 Deluxe top foremost kart racing and battle game to date 2021! The expansive tracks choices and battle upgrade only help to secure this game as number 1 to date fun competition of Kart racing while simultaneously battling for position and victory! HIGHLY recommended!

I love Mario kart and the only reason I bought a Nintendo switch!

Love playing this game with my daughter I love racing so this is a great game for me

Great game. Better than expected. Got it for my child but it’s great for adults also

Amazing fun. This game originally came out on Wii U, minor tweaks for Switch launch and it has literally existed for almost 10 years. 1080 P or Oled model handheld look awesome

This is the newest version of the classic Mario Kart series, redone for the switch. It's a great game as always, and my kids absolutely LOVE to play it (not gonna lie--I like to play it too, though they're better than me at it haha). If you've played 7 you've pretty much played this. So far as I can tell the difference is that there are some characters and races unlocked that weren't unlocked in previous versions. If you've never played you're in for a treat. This is a fun, fast, really cute racing game that is super kid-friendly, but is challenging enough for adults. My kids have never had a problem with the controls on other systems, and I'm happy to report it's easy to control on the switch as well. The designs of the tracks are well-themed, and choosing your car and racer is just a small part of what can be a pretty intricate game. The controls are simple enough that my 6-year-old has no problem with them. The tracks are fun to play and each presents it's own unique challenges. The graphics are great--everything is bright and fun. It's easy to make out what's going on at any given time, and the game itself is a lot of fun to watch! This is a fun, very family-friendly game that kids of all ages will enjoy! Now hopefully it won't be too long before Mario Kart 9 comes out...

Really loved this game, the graphics, and easy to play online makes it super fun!

Good family game. Lots more characters than previous titles and more tracks.

My 6yo daughter, my husband, and I all LOVE playing this together. Such a great game, great graphics! Love how it doesn't take as long to get back on the track when you fall off now, and love the feature for the kiddos that you can STAY on the track! So glad we decided to get this for us for Christmas!

The game is exactly what you expect it to be. It's Mario Kart 8 from the Wii U with all the DLC released unlocked from the start. The replayability for the solo player may take a slight hit since you're essentially playing the game to earn stars and trophies, which serve no functional purpose after unlocking Gold Mario/Kart/Wheels, and coins, which will net you a cart part every 30 coins earned. The replay value comes from the online modes available. Battle mode returns and for the most part, is as great as you remember it. The course variety is small but enough to feel unique with each arena. The only real flaw from the battle mode is the omission of classic "last man standing". Instead, when you run out of balloons, you simply respawn with three more at the cost of a significant portion of your points (which determines what place you finish when time runs out). The race mode is everything you'd expect. And with the addition of 200cc class and the ability to pick up two items at a time, it's pure chaos. If you own a switch, this and Breath of the Wild are must haves.
