Battle with friends and family. Easy for everyone to get used to, fun to spend time mastering.

Absolute blast, also My 6yo and 3 year old actually get along when this is on so thats cool

Fun game for the whole family Mario Kart has come a long way. We love all the new charterers

This game is so much better than the Wii U version. Now the game runs in 1080p, you can hold two items for double the action, and drifting is more important in this game. They included all the DLC from the Wii U for free and even added more characters and cups. A big thing I didn't like about the Wii U version is that I couldn't use gamecube controllers but now the switch version supports it! They also added battle modes in this version so this game is a definite buy.

This game brings back fun memories of Mario kart 7 and somehow Nintendo made this game even more fun!

For those of you that are unfamiliar with the "Deluxe" nomenclature, this game is a slightly tweaked and improved version of the previously released Mario Kart 8, with all of the DLC and unlockables given to you right out of the box. While this seems like a generous package of content to enjoy, it does get a little boring after a while to not have anything to unlock aside from the golden Mario skin. All in all, this is still a great party game for children and adults of any age to enjoy, and the online multiplayer is a nice way to kill time if you feel competitive. As for the improvements made to the Switch version, the graphics in this game look amazing, and the controls and audio are all top-notch. However, if you're a new Switch owner, I would definitely recommend getting more than just this game to start with, as it can get old pretty fast, especially if you're playing single player games.

My son absolutely loved this game! Me and my husband also both enjoy playing with him.

Great game for a crowd. The controls are easy to use and is comfortable even with 4 players.

I do not think my kids have put this game down since purchase. Graphics are decent, gameplay is fun, easy enough for any one to play.

I like the variety of gameplay options, tracks, single/multiplayer etc. Controls are easy to use, even in the "single joycon" multiplayer configuration, though I'd recommend getting some joycon holders to make the grip more comfortable to hold, especially for adults - those things are tiny. Haven't played with the steering wheel controllers, but it's fun to play with the regular controller too. Kids enjoy it, we can play as a family.

I have had so much fun playing this game with family and friends, well the friends that are able to put up with my rants after playing Mario Kart. Trying to get 3 stars on everything is fun and the 200cc is challenging and has been the cause of many rage fits.I bought this game on the Wii U and never got the dlc and this version comes with all the dlc and was worth the repurchase to play on the switch. The extra battle options have provided countless hours of fun with the family and friends. Great game overall.

sure it isn't a "sim" racing experience... but it's the most fun. the game actually takes strategy and skill. lots of characters to choose from, plenty of tracks, runs soooooo smooth on the switch too. i owned the wii u version as well... this is the same game (sort of) all the dlc is available for free... slightly better graphics, and a much much smoother experience the switch has a beautiful screen btw...

Mario Kart 8 is the best kart racing game Nintendo has made in a long time. It strikes a careful balance between refining old ideas while introducing fresh new ones. Admittedly, its gorgeous graphics and jazzy orchestrated soundtrack bolster its presentation, but you’re getting a lot more than just looks with this one – although I spent an awful lot of time gawking at the details in slow-motion, the fast and furious pace of racing with friends both locally and online is what really kept me coming back

Fun for everyone. Competitive. Easy to pick-up. 4 people can play at once. This game never gets old. Great family game.

It’s a great game for the whole family. Easy to play and learn the controls. It’s a little pricey in my opinion though.

Game is fun, easy to pick up and play anywhere, and can be played 2 player with no equipment beyond what comes with the switch system.

This game has all the elements of classic Mario Kart with fun upgrades. I love the classic tracks as well as the new ones.

Fast delivery. I received it in an excellent package. This game is awesome. Can never go wrong with this game. Takes a bit at first to figure out how the game works but quite a fun challenge once you get the hang of the controls.

My 7 year old has been playing this game for years over at Grandpa’s house. Yes, his 78 year old grandpa has a switch and loves to play this too. We bought the switch for my son’s birthday and the only game he EVER talked about was Mariokart. So of course Grandpa bought it for him. They are both so happy “training” separately in preparation for big race dates. So much fun for all ages!

It is a lot of fun to play this game with family as 4 can play at a time. Kids enjoyed it a lot
