Great game love to play Great graphics Great family game

I've played ever Mario Kart since the Super NES version first came out and I've always enjoyed the races and the battle modes. This is a Christmas gift for my 10 and 11 year old boys so I haven't had an opportunity to play this other than at Best Buy but from the short demo, it handles great and the graphics are amazing. I like the addition of the new items to use during the races.

Easily my favorite game on the Switch. I didn't think anything would touch Zelda and boy was I wrong. The replay value is insane. The fun in your living room with your friends is priceless. The controls are perfect. The 60 fps and 1080p graphics in docked mode is exactly what I was hoping for. What's the only thing I would want changed? I guess just to turn off auto-steering by default.

excellent game and very fun, if you play 4 people ... much better

I haven't played Mario Kart since the first one on 3DS and Double-Dash on the Gamecube, but this version is a lot of fun, especially with friends and family. I also love how many ways you can play locally. I have a Pro Controller so if you count the Joy-Cons I can play with 3x people now. The Joy-Cons with the grips attached are actually pretty good controllers, much better than expected.

I had previously played this on the Wii U, so I was familiar with the game. The Switch version is both technically better, portable, and adds some new features. If you like Mario Kart and have a Switch this is definitely a game for you. I wouldn't necessarily recommend buying a Switch JUST for this game if you don't already have one, but it's great regardless.

This is a fun game probably more of a multiplayer game. The Grand Prix single player definitely Lacks the unlockables. Almost all characters and karts are already unlocked the only thing that you really unlock are the different parts for certain carts bikes and things of that nature

With the Switch, it's easy to sync joycons. We had a friend come over and all he did was slide it into the switch and pull it out. Mario Kart for Switch has some really fun games and is way more responsive than any of the other motion controller console versions. Not having to unlock any characters may seem like there is nothing to work for in the game, but this was made for social fun!!!

Fast paced gameplay. Challenging tracks great for any age.

The game is great on the switch and includes all the dlc and some extra modes to make it worth buying again if you have it on Wii U already. But since it’s been out on the Wii U for a while now and it’s still full price I have to dock it a star.

I've played every mario cart and this one takes the cake and eats it too. Has amazing remastered courses and a numerous amounts of vehicle customizations as well as fan favorite characters.

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

Deluxe comes with the complete package including all the DLC characters and tracks. The game looks even better on Nintendo Switch at a smooth 60 FPS. As always you can drift, glide, and now collect up to two power ups to give you an edge over the competition. The multiplayer works great in local or online. MK8D is as fun as ever and I highly recommend it for anyone's Switch library.

Was really nervous about Mario Kart successively meeting its past standards. Past races being included in the game definitely helps, but all the original tracks stand on their own merits. The tire/kart system is a nice maturation of the series to keep from the oversimplistic weight-classes. New items are great, great anti-blue shell technology! Music can be a little wanting at times, but not terrible, online is super fun and seems to be promisingly endurable. The MarioKarTV replay thing is a little overindulgent. The optional smart steering is a stroke of genius. If it would have been mandatory it would have really ruined the game, but having it be optional is a great way to learn tracks. Right along with that, is having to finish tracks and not having the option to restart, just a nice touch. Switch additions are great also, glad the tilt controls are optional, because they can be fun, but hard to remember if you're using certain controller methods. That's about it I think. Love the point-unlock system. 200 cc is a cruel joke that if I ever master I'll almost be kind of embarrassed, but for its credit it is kind of like making Mario Kart into a cartoon style Gran Turismo. Too much for my taste, but I could see how it would be fun. Oh and the battle additions, that renegade thing with the piranha plant, really fun, sunshine really fun, coin runner.... meh, but the rest great additions.

Love this game, love playing mario kart on my switch when im in the airplanes
