    The fixes from the Wii U version have been amazing. The stats such as acceleration now reflect the actual acceleration. In wii U the stats would not adjust unless a FULL bar of stat was filled which really made switching between vehicles and stuff not nearly as fun once you found optimal combinations that filled full bars. Now any combination you will still get the stat bonus even if partially full. The battle modes are awesome. The new renegade round up is SO fun. Overall A++++++ and definitely the best Mario Kart I have ever played.

    Makes Me Feel Like a Kid again

    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.

    An Amazing Game - Definitely the Best MK Yet

    For me, as I know it is true for a lot of us, we spent hours playing the original Mario Kart on Super NES & then later even more hours spent Of Mario Kart 64. What is so great about this latest installment is that it pays homage to the Mario Kart roots and still has enough new features to standalone as the best so far. Features like being able to hold onto two items instead of one, or the amount of upgrades and vehicle adaptations, new battle modes, and the beautiful, more colorful level designs. Don't miss out on this game.

    Regardless of the full price for a repackaged game from the Wii U, this game is 100% worth it. With extra characters, tracks and Battle Royale this game will provide a TON of replayability to both the young and older generations. Controls are simple, graphics are amazing (in both handheld and docked modes) and overall just one of the best multiplayer experiences on any console. This is a MUST OWN for Switch owners.

    “Mario Kart 8 is the best kart racing game Nintendo has made in a long time. It strikes a careful balance between refining old ideas while introducing fresh new ones. Admittedly, its gorgeous graphics and jazzy orchestrated soundtrack bolster its presentation, but you’re getting a lot more than just looks with this one – although I spent an awful lot of time gawking at the details in slow-motion, the fast and furious pace of racing with friends both locally and online is what really kept me coming back.”
