Customer Ratings & Reviews

This game has everything you could possibly want from a Mario kart game. Lots of characters and tracks to race on! Fun with friends and family. Looks great when the switch is docked on the TV!

I've played MarioKart in the past, and all that experience translated right over. I did 150CC right away and got 1st on 3/4 courses then 2nd, and it was the first time doing those courses... so a little too easy. Turning off the guard rails makes it slightly more difficult. Although fun, it's not something I play long term like many other games. Depends what you are into I suppose, but for me it felt like it should cost a lot less for the value I got out of it. Meanwhile the Mario Rabbit Kingdom game I put many many hours into and it was half price.

Bought this for my son for christmas. He lost the first one. Told him he wouldn't get a new one. We play it as a family for fun. Can't let a good mario kart competition go away.

Even my 5 year old daughter was able to join in the fun and actually win. Really like how all tracks and characters are unlocked by default and 4 player with just 2 sets of joycons.

Fun game for children. Works great on my switch oled

I really like how they incorporate all the old characters and tracks. Pretty expansive game and fun for family time or settling arguments.

Classic Mario Kart. Must own for Nintendo fans. Has all of the tracks and characters you love. Always full price because people love it.

awesome game . best place to buy it from . best buy gets it ready so fast for pickup . awesome service. Added it to my collection

There are lots of characters and tracks in this game. As you collect coins you unlock different tires and carts. The online play is smooth and is a must try part of the game. Very challenging to play others online. The only thing I don’t like about the game is the fact that you don’t unlock characters and tracks. They are readily available from the start of the game. Overall a must buy for any switch owner!

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is pure fun. It’s easy to pick up, hard to put down, and perfect for playing with friends or family. It's great to play solo and even better with friends! Timeless game play and graphics. Whether you're a longtime fan or new to the series, this game is a must-have for the Switch.

kids enjoyed it very much. Wonderful themes and nice graphic with lots of characters to choose from and the tracksare really fun. really nice upgrade from previous versions.

I hadn't played Mario kart since the Nintendo 64 days, so I was blown away by how good this game looks and how well it plays. The idea that you could play it with one JoyCon via motion controls gave me pause; once I tried it, I saw how lag-free the controls were and kept remarking on how responsive the steering was. The fact that I could play this with four individual JoyCons instead of four complete controllers is a huge, huge benefit. This game is easy to get into and fun to play in a group; the portability of the Switch allows me to bring it anywhere. It's a great game for parties!

my son loves the game plays with friends and family

This game was purchased as a gift. While I do not have any experience with the Switch version of this title, I have extensive experience behind the wheel of Mario Kart 8 for the Wii U (on which this is based). Mario Kart 8 was able to reiterate on the series in a way with which to move it forward while still remaining true to its roots as a fun, easy for everyone, racing game. This Deluxe version includes everything from the Wii U version, plus more. The ability to take Mario Kart mobile and share it with friends easily make this a no-brainer recommendation. If you own a Nintendo Switch, this is a must have title.

This particular game offers an engaging experience suitable for all ages. Its mechanics are designed to foster collaboration and friendly competition. The gameplay encourages strategic thinking and problem-solving in a fun, accessible manner. It provides a valuable opportunity for shared enjoyment and meaningful interaction among family members.

Want fast paced action with friends, online, or by yourself? One of the best games on the Wii U is now one of the best games on the Switch... and even better than its original version. The battle arenas are actually arenas (unlike the first version of the game), and were a much needed upgrade. They give you a ton of stuff unlocked as soon as you start, and there's still more to unlock while you collect coins racing. The tracks, featuring a number from previous versions of Mario Kart remade, are all very well designed. The only con to the game is the rubberband effect, which is, as always, worse as the difficulty increases.

Tons of tracks and characters. The Legend of Zelda track and Link are a particular favorite. Looks and plays great on the Switch Lite.

Fun game, I’ve played with my son and it reminds me of the original MarioKart. Some exciting new characters and tracks too

Mario kart 8 for the Wii U was near perfect, but the battle mode was bad. Instead of arenas, it was in regular race tracks, and it wasn't as fun because other opponents were further apart. But in 2017, Mario kart 8 Deluxe was released for Nintendo's newest console, the Nintendo Switch, and it really improved the battle mode by removing the tracks and adding not only arenas, but new modes such as Coin Runners, Renegade Roundup, Shine Runners, and Bob-bomb Blast. There are also more characters, tracks, and items. It is a must game for your Switch console, even if you have the Wii U version.

Entertaining game for hours, many characters and tracks to choose from. No end to the fun when you can continue the game anywhere! The portability is priceless.
