We've played this one a ton! I bought it for my son/family. He'd been playing a lot of apps in which characters are running by default and you just have to tap to jump or swipe to move. We tried a couple of side-scrolling console games but you need to be a bit more coordinated developmentally to move and jump at the same time. Racing games end up being a nice transition as you just have to hold the 'go' button and then steer. Not much to coordinate or time in general. Mario Kart though does have power ups and jumping/turning that do add this coordination piece, but given the different difficulty settings, we're able to have a lot of fun and success with this one!

This game is great for my kiddos (6&4) they love Mario! The possibilities for this game are endless!!

For anyone with a Switch, this is a must buy. Being able to easily drop into a wireless lobby within anyone in range, leads to some great and random race situations. Great for entertaining the kids too as I can quickly join in with my son and niece on their Switches to keep the kids entertained.

I was kind of skeptical about this game - mainly because it had a lot of hype, and I usually to follow the hype or fads with video games, but my fiancé were in one of those moods to play games and this is one of two that we purchased. Super fun and it's just a relaxed, family bonding time game!

Love this game simple I have had a lot of fun with my special needs daughter, and grandchildren. Lots of fun any time. Graphics are nice too.

Literally best family game . All of my family have always been a fan of mario so it was a no brainer getting this game .

Mario Kart 8 is so much fun! I thought it would be boring because we have a bunch of other racing games, but there are different types of battles and arenas. It’s pretty fun!

This is a great game for all ages. We had 3 generations playing over Christmas, and everyone enjoyed. The default option to keep you on the track automatically is really nice as you are learning. The various tracks bring variety and nastalgia. Awesome graphics. You should play this game.

Apparently it’s a very popular game. It was on my grandchild’s Christmas wish list, and received multiple Nintendo Switch Mario Kart 8 games so we had to return ours

So far so good. Easy to use. Really high quality screen views

this has always been one of my favorite games since I was a kid! I love how the original characters and all their attributes are given a good amount of detail. Very fun game, and very easy to play with my 5 year old!

I owned this game on WiiU and thought it would be redundant to buy it on Switch. Here's the thing, it isn't. The WiiU takes forever to boot this up, the Switch will toss you into an online match before the WiiU even takes you to the opening splash screen. This is the best version of Mario Kart

I love Mario kart and was looking forward to this one! I found it a little more challenging than the previous releases. The characters are varied as always and the graphics of the scenarios are gorgeous. Another must have game!

This is a great racing game on the Nintendo platform. It comes with our familiar characters and familiar controls. I can easily put one hour of my time into playing with this game. The graphics is awesome and smooth. Highly recommended.

As a fan of Nintendo systems, I have played many different Mario kart games, but with Mario Kart 8 deluxe, the best Mario kart game has arrived. With all the new stages and the most characters in a game, plus all the new kart combinations to be made, there is no lack in content with this game.

After you figure out how to turn off the 'baby' controls by pressing + and 'Y' when you select your cart, it becomes a much less frustrating game. It's really fun to play with my roomies, they all hate me when I get the boomerang. Great family game too, I can see this being a great game for the kids. I grew up with games like Mario Kart and it was the stepping stone into opening interest in games. Encourage your children with this game on how to win gracefully and how to lose with humility, because there will be winners and losers.

The red shells, the lightening, the inking and the amount of bs I have endured is worse than 2012 cod lobbies. Great game fun for the family.

Played this game a lot as a child. The game is a slightly different, but just as good as I remember, if not better. Only thing I don't like is the feel of the controller due to it's size. Definitely recommend the game though.

Best Mario Kart yet!! Going all the way back to the original I have enjoyed this game, but this is the best version yet. Graphics are great! Additional characters are fun and all the track options (old and new) are excellent!

We got this game for my kids for christmas. They love it.
