My wife and I played this together a couple of weeks ago, not so I could write about it or anything (I've already done that), but just for the fun of it. I still have the greatest emotional connection to the first in the series, after so much time playing it in my childhood, but Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is indeed great. I need to get the new DLC courses at some point.

"What if everything you see is more than what you see--the person next to you is a warrior and the space that appears empty is a secret door to another world? What if something appears that shouldn't? You either dismiss it, or you accept that there is much more to the world than you think. Perhaps it really is a doorway, and if you choose to go inside, you'll find many unexpected things." - Shigeru Miyamoto on secret doors to another world2

The DLC has had some controversy about the quality due to being ports from other games, like Mario Kart mobile. They've resolved them, as I understand it, but the new tracks are quite good. If you've got the NAO Expansion Pack you'll get them for free. Mario Kart's strength really is the people we associate with it and the fun times we have with them.


Look, the only time I'm not wrong is when I'm right, so...
