    Mario Kart for Switch is awesome! Much better than Mario Kart Wii. It has so many more characters, gameplay options, and vehicles! Also you can either drive with motion controls, or the joy stick. One of my favorite Switch games!

    Mario Kart is a classic! It hardly needs a review! If you’re looking for a fun game to play with family or friends over at your place, THIS is your game, sis! Or take it with you to their houses! The switch is portable, so what are you waiting for?!

    Mario Kart 8 How it should've been on WII U

    I'm upset I had to buy this game again on Switch just to get a proper battle mode the way it should've been on WII U. Even though I bough this game twice basically it is an amazing game and worth it in the end for the new battle mod, how great it looks and the portability!

    Great Game But Terrible Item Balance

    Coming from the Nintendo Wii's Mario Kart 7, the game is graphically stunning, and there are a variety of new, exciting, and gorgeous tracks with plenty of shortcuts. There are some classic tracks as well as newer ones. There are many options to customize your vehicle (e.g., parachute, wheels). Vehicle customization affects the acceleration, weight, handling, traction, and speed of the vehicle. All of the characters come unlocked, but you can unlock vehicles, parachutes, and wheels by collecting coins throughout the game. Interestingly, there is 200cc, which speeds up the track, so breaking technique is involved. Gameplay: I immediately noticed that MK8D requires a lot of drifting, which is different from MK7 Wii, where drifting is optional. I found it to be more easy to get bumped off the track by heavier players. Unfortunately, some of the boost items (the golden mushroom and star) give you less speed than they used to. The benefit to the star in MK8D is its invincibility, which is a great advantage considering that players can hold up to two items. The green turtles are much more likely to hit you, are much faster, and can bounce off walls. Getting a coin in first place is often frustrating as it is not a defensive item; however, collecting coins increase your speed. Why I Stopped Playing: The item balance is terrible. Even though Nintendo added cool, new items, such as the fire flower, boomerang, ghost, piranha plant, super horn, and the crazy eight, the item balance made the game unbearable for me. Not only can players hold two items but green turtles are faster and have better aim; there are fireballs that can bounce off walls and hit you; the boomerangs can hit you when thrown forward or when it comes back to the player; and you can get hit by a blue shell traveling on the ground. There are not always warnings for these items either; they can come out of nowhere. The game would be perfect if Nintendo rebalanced the items.

    Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is a fun racing game and a good addition to the franchise. I am having a blast sharing the game with my 5 year old son. There are a lot of tracks and characters to choose from. You can unlock new vehicles and accessories by getting coins during the race.

    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.

    This game is full of fun levels that you can enjoy either by yourself or with your friends! The screen splits to show multiple players and it’s still super easy to see your side and play. There’s lots of extra cars and different parts to unlock, so it keeps it fun!

    Mario Kart 8 continues the excellence of the franchise. With the addition of all new tracks and racers, combined with much of the old, this game is sure to please. My girlfriend and I love playing together, and it's great for any occasion with other like-minded people!

    This xmas was awesome! The process was smooth. Order online, get email confirmation, and pick up within an hour. The service was on point and the game was a blast. my kids and i are having family fun with this game! my 7 year old son is ecstatic, my 11 year old daughter is having fun showing her skills, and i can barely keep up with them. The parental controls are absolutely the best way to limit the daily screentime. since the switch games are so much fun they don't mind using up their time today and then coming back for more tomorrow. i like that they can still have time to read, write, draw, and play. i think it was a superdad wise choice to get this switch!

    This game is a Nintendo classic and they nailed every piece of it. The characters, items, maps, you name it. The game has maps from GameCube, Gameboy Advance, WII and N64. Any controllers are compatible with it too. Definitely worth it!
