10-06-2025Sorry for the all caps, I just love this game. I had always wanted Mario Kart 8, but sadly I never owned a Wii U. There is a very wide variety of tracks, being 48 in total (32 from the original game and 12 from the dlc). All the tracks are creative and have their perks, as with any Mario Kart game. BATTLE MODE IS BACK! There was a battle mode on Mario Kart 8, but it was famous for being lazy (It used race tracks from the game and only had balloon battles). This is all fixed in Deluxe, with eight dedicated battle courses and five battle modes, all of which are amazing. There are new/returning characters such as Bowser Jr., King Boo, and INKLINGS! Still no Birdo or Diddy Kong, though. The graphics are updated to 1080p and 60fps docked, from 720p and an odd 59fps on the Wii U. There are very few flaws, those being small things such as the coin item being too prominent or Pink Gold Peach being a character. This is the highest reviewed Mario Kart game to date, with the highest first day attach rate. It broke the first day sales record of Mario Kart Wii. This game is AMAZING! I didnt even mention double items! They are a game changer! It is very accessible for new players with options such as smart steering and auto acceleration. The only problem is that they are very easy to toggle on, so be careful. I would definitely recommend. 10/10!

Greater than one weekIf you have the Wii U version and are on the edge about repurchasing, Ill give you my two cents. First off the mobile application should speak for itself. Also the game does look remastered very well with a lot higher contrasts and great colors. All the characters are unlocked and all DLC from Wii U is included. I wasnt really digging buying it until I played it for around 30 mins. It sold me on why the switch is going to be a great console. Great graphics and great game. Hope this helps.

Greater than one weekI was already sold when the port was announced. I wasnt going to keep playing the Wii U for long, and the online community would probably go down. So I pre-ordered this game as soon as I was able to, and after playing it for a few hours, its the same great experience I enjoyed on Wii U, but if you can believe it, they somehow made it even better. First off, Im actually surprised at how clean and crisp this game looks. I do not remember the Wii U version POPPING out of my screen like the Switch version does. It could be my 4K TV, idk, but man. The game is gorgeous and smooth. Gameplay is the same, which is great, but as I was racing and drifting, I noticed my Sparks turn purple. They added another GOT DANG DRIFT BOOST IM SWEATIN, NOOBS BE WARNED WHEN I HOP ONLINE AND PREPARE TO GET CREAMED. I had no idea beforehand that they were doing that. I was excited. Little things like that, alongside the inclusion of more characters, a proper battle mode, and more make this purchase worth it. If you got the funds I say its a no brainer, but otherwise I definitely recommend picking this up if/when it drops in price.
