![]() ![]() Now while waiting in online lobbies there is an option to switch karts and characters before each race or battle making it incredibly convenient to swap things around without having to completely back out. The boo and feather items make their return from the SNES title to mix things up, allowing players to steal items and becoming invisible with the boo, while in battle mode players can pick up a feather to jump over opponents and even steal balloons. There are also a lot of new features players might not notice immediately. One entirely new battle mode called Renegade Roundup makes an appearance, which has one team with piranha plants trying to capture the other before time runs out. Four previous battle modes make a return including Balloon Battle, Bob-omb Blast, Coin Runners and Shine Thief. ![]() Deluxe scrapped that entirely for a more traditional battle mode, complete with 8 maps to choose from. The Wii U title let players run through any of the available tracks while trying to pop the balloons of the other character, but was completely unlike any previous battle mode before it. The biggest change for Deluxe is the completely revamped battle mode. Deluxe includes all the DLC from the previous release on Wii U in addition five brand new characters for the Switch release. One of the biggest draws for this title is, of course, the brand new content. Wireless play lets those with a Switch in handheld mode challenge up to seven other players with a Switch system, allowing two players on each system for the maximum twelve races at once. Local lets up to four players go head to head in battles or races, while online has players challenging anyone around the world and even enabling users to set up tournaments. Deluxe adds the ability to race these ghosts in 200cc, which is considerably faster and more challenging than the original 150cc. Single player offers the unique option of Time Trials, where players can try to get the best time on tracks and submit it to be challenged in addition to being able to race against an official Nintendo ghost character. Single player, local multiplayer, online multiplayer and now the inclusion of wireless play for the Switch. The general setup of Mario Kart has remained fairly identical between the most recent titles. While this is certainly partially true, Deluxe includes loads of new available content to entice new and returning players alike. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe originally came off to many players as an easy port for Nintendo to release in order to get the most out of the title by upgrading it to their latest system. It incorporates fun, colorful levels with items to trip up any rival racers in a player’s path. Mario Kart is one of the most iconic racing titles that has made its way onto every Nintendo platform since the original SNES.
