"lets do mario kart 8 again"
-shigeru miyamoto, probably
Hi, everyone, welcome to my first-ever review! I decided to review Mario Kart 8 Deluxe because it’s a great game, and a lot of people seem to enjoy it. So, without further ado, let’s-a-go! Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is a game released for the Nintendo Switch in 2017 in most of the world, and 2020 in China. This has over 40 tracks, and more with the Booster Course Pass, which I will review later. Mario Kart has spanned generations, however, this one is one of the best. It’s Mario Kart 8, but you can take it portably! There are many modes and sub-modes, from Grand Prix to Battle, and Battle also has six sub-modes!
Verdict
What I Liked ...
- Fun for the whole family.
- On a very popular console.
- Great for modding.
- New modes and racers.
- It’s Mario for people who don’t like Mario.
What I Didn't Like ...
- May ruin friendships.
- THE BLUE SHELL.
- BLOOPER.

Gameplay
To start, the controls are sort of complicated. This may be because of the Switch’s 2 controller setup. It can be made simpler with the 1-controller horizontal setup, but that can sort of cramp up your hands. You could make it even simpler, though, by using tilt controls. The controls aren't the only thing gameplay-wise, though. There are also the powerups to talk about. The blooper, personally, makes me RAGE. The blue shell does, too . Thankfully, I can control myself. Also, there are many good tracks. There are even new battle tracks and modes!

Presentation
First, there is a very nice UI (User Interface). Also, there are many fan-favorite characters. There are also many kart customizations and combos, including the famous-ish Waluigi+Wild Wiggler+Any Glider combo.

Lasting Appeal
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is a game that’s meant to be played with your family or friends. It’s meant to be played over and over again. It’s meant to be simple fun with no story, no princess to save. However, it's notorious for ruining friendships.
