    Great game with lots of fun maps, cars and characters to try out. Fun for multiple players to be able to play at once with additional controllers. A bit pricey, but fun for all ages.

    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 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!

    My 12 year old daughter ask for this game. When I purchased it I didn’t realize the whole family would get addicted. After the 1st night I had to buy 2 additional controllers so we could all play together. We’ve been playing at least 3 nights a week since.

    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?!

    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!

    If you have played or owned Mario Kart 8 for the Wii U, then you know what to expect. This is pretty much Mario Kart 8 with all the DLC, plus some exclusives for the Nintendo Switch. Still gives you hours and hours of fun and replay value. Great family game for everyone!
