Great racing game, especially with a group! I have always been a huge fan of Mario Kart and this is a great time. I do have the original version of this game on the Wii U and this version is not only great on the go, but also somehow feels a little bit better! If your on the fence, take the jump. This should be a day one pick with your switch!

I lost my first copy so I had to buy it again. Should have gone digital. Mario Kart is so easy to pick up it makes for a great game to toss up during parties. And the improvements they made for the less dexterous (i.e. non-gamers of your friends and family) means even they too can join in on the phone. Great to play AND spectate.

I haven't ha a new system from any manufacturer and I chose this one for it's portability and multiplayer functions. I love this game! It is a blast to play. I love the interactions and finding the hidden eggs that make the game exciting. I give it two thumbs up! Get this game. It's great for the whole family.

The kids will often argue about what game to play next, but Mario Kart Deluxe 8 is almost always the perfect compromise. Both kids (6 and 9) can play it easily and have fun. They enjoy racing outright, but the assorted coop battle modes gets a lot of attention. It's fun that the whole family can play as well.

While it's fun if you're playing by yourself, nothing beats the group dynamics of playing with friends or family! It's a classic Mario game that will never get old, and I'm so happy I have it in my house! It's kind of frustrating that it's so expensive but such is the song with Nintendo games.

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is an instant classic! Lots of tracks to race, so many characters to choose from, and enough game modes to keep you playing for hours and hours of fun. Do yourself a favor and buy this game!

Playing this game is extremely entertaining especially playing with friends and family. Only disappointing thing about this game is the fact that it's only a remastered version of the Wii U game thus it's not a total new Mario Kart game, so same levels and stuff. Enjoy! Marioooooo Kart Eighhhhhhht!! (You'll know what I mean)

Simply put, the best mario cart game ever made. I loved it on the Wii U, and love it on the switch. It's awesome having a real mario cart game with me on the road. The only thing I don't like, and I'm not sure if this is a setting I'm missing, but on the Wii U i pressed the A button to drive, on the switch it seems to drive on its own. I miss pressing A.

Great game for all ages. Easy to play. My 6 year old’s first video game and she learned quickly how to play and use the controllers.

This game gives you many options for playing like how many player either one through 4 or 5 and then gives you 8-10 different topics to choose for races and in those topics each has 4 different locations to game in. It has battle mode, 4 game race and versus choice of style of game. My entire family has played it for game night from kids aged 8 though 60.

I grew up playing Mario kart and the fact that I get to play it again is something I’ve never thought I’d ever get to experience again I’m glad I bought this game

Great fun video game. I keep playing it over and over again

Although this version is pretty identical to the Wii U version, it adds a lot of little nice changes that I feel that are worth purchasing if you had previously owned this game. You had the addition of a few new racers, the change in gameplay by allowing the player to hold two items at once, the Boo item making its return from MK64, the addition of smart steering and auto accleration to allow newcomers to play with series veterans, a solid 60FPS as opposed to the 59FPS on the WiiU, 1080p HD graphics when the console is docked/ 720p HD when the console is undocked as opposed to the native 720p HD on the WiiU, and of course the big addition, a much needed fixed up battle mode with 5 new courses and 3 retro courses with 5 different modes: Classic Battle, Bob-Omb Battle, Shine Thief, Coin Runners, and Renegade Round-up (essentially cops and robbers). I can't say if this buy is for everyone because I know people see it as buying the same game again, but I feel personally it has added enough to make it worth buying and it definitely stands out as the definitive version of this game. And for anyone who has yet to own this game in any form, I'd highly, highly recommend buying as this is easily one of the best Mario Karts Nintendo has put out.

Much like how Zelda BotW should be recommend to anyone who owns a Switch, this game also is an amazing addition for single and multiplayer. I already owned this game, but bought it for my wife so she could play it on her own screen. Glad I did, already have had hours of fun together. Many characters and vehicles to choose from

I've been a fan of Mario Kart since the Super Nintendo and it looks absolutely gorgeous on the Switch. I love the fact you can play it on you TV but love being able to take it on the go. 200cc is blistering fast and keeps it a challenge for the mature player while the 50cc is great for a beginner and my 6 year old niece can easily win those races.

This is one of my favorite game! The controls are responsive. The gameplay is competitive. The game is very colorful and fun. My son can play this for days. The only issue is with the controller when you’re playing 2 players as it can be a bit small. A recommendation is to get the wheel accessory that makes it more comfortable in the hands.

Good and fun game for the kids and adults alike. Would buy

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is the very best that Mario Kart has to offer. It is the culmination of trials and errors and feels right at home on the Switch. This is a must have for anyone who likes multiplayer games or likes to play with others frequently. All the characters and maps are available from the get go (including DLC content) and are sufficiently varied and plentiful. The only thing you have to unlock are vehicle parts that unlock from collecting coins as you race. It's simple and straightforward. There are options to make it easier to play for young children or novices, such as auto-acceleration (exactly as it sounds) and smart-steering (no falling off the race track). The mechanics are standard Mario Kart fare that if you're fan, you probably already know by now. Overall, it's as a complete package as you can get in an age where you pay for every little bit of extra of content.

One of the best selling games of all time with good reason. My 5 year old can play with no special options on but my 2 year old can also play and feel like part of the fun with auto steer and drive. Great for the whole family.

This game was amazing. I love how easy it is to use this game on the Nintendo.
