Mario Kart 8 Deluxe

The perfect arcade racer. Beating all the 200cc cups with 3 stars is an entertaining and fast-paced journey that will keep you engaged. The extra content is beautiful and well designed (tracks, characters, vehicles).

Even though it's a re-release of a 2014 game, it holds up incredibly well. It brought back that same joy I used to feel playing Mario Kart 64, but now with way more characters, more tracks, and even better graphics and gameplay - and the fact that it's portable just makes it better.

No wonder it's the best-selling game on the Switch. It's accessible, polished, and just pure fun. A must-have for gamers of all ages.

This is one of my favorite Nintendo Switch games of all time, and it's the Switch game I've played the most as of now. I'd have to agree with what a couple of the other reviews say: this is a piece of Nintendo nostalgia! There is a wide variety of different Nintendo characters to play as: Mario, Luigi, Bowser, Bowser Jr, Yoshi, Link, Villager, Tom Nook, Toad, Donkey Kong, Princess Peach, and many more. There's a lot of fast paced and catchy music that plays when the races go on, and it sounds similar to music from old video games and makes the game more fun to play!

There are a lot of unique locations to race at, like Cheese Land, Baby Park, City Tracks, Animal Crossing, and many more. Each of the locations have a specific theme, sometimes ones related to aspects of the other games that the characters are from, like babies, music, trains, rainbows, sweet foods, mushrooms, Yoshi's Island, and more, which gives the game uniqueness, a lot of detail, and huge combinations of the characters' franchises! They're all so bright and colorful, especially Rainbow Road. There's one location looks a lot like Andy's room from Toy Story, but I can't think of the name of it.

I didn't know this until I searched up this game on here, but this and Mario Kart 8 are 2 different games. I read in another review that this is an expanded version of Mario Kart 8. I like the sound of that!

They say they hate the Wii U, despite the awesome games Nintendo makes, but I have no prob with the Wii U what-so-ever! Mario Kart 8 is an awesome racing game! You'll love the anti-gravity functions! But the best part is the Koopalings racing! You'll love how awesome they are in this game (Much more than the NMSBM series)

The controls are more realistic. The tracks are more realistic too. Battles are more fun. I haven't played Mario Kart since Mario Kart for the Wii and this game is better than the Wii one.

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is a great expansion of what was already an amazing game for the Wii U. Nintendo can't make bad games. I think it's pretty simple that they can do next to no wrong, besides the Wii U's launch itself. Mario Kart 8 is a wonderful: in every sense of the word. The gameplay is phenomenal, the graphics are indisputably gorgeous and the music is still riveting and nostalgic. F-Zero, The Legend of Zelda, Yoshi's Island, Donkey Kong, Mario: all the Nintendo references you can think of inhabit and give beautiful life to this milestone in gaming.

An absolute achievement in Nintendo's 100+ years of history, Mario Kart 8 is a beautiful reflection of what the company's achieved since the early 80s. The company may not have started out in gaming, but it's defined it since they made the transition to gaming in the 20th Century. This is the absolute best installment in the series.
