Great game remote car. Only issues cardboard gates you drive thru.
Was nice to be able to just get at home as we couldn't get locally at time. Son loves playing with and driving around. He likes that he can make his own track. Only issue I see is that the gates for game are cardboard they do seem a little flimsy to last a long time. We have been try to protect them. So far ok. But would definitely be nice for more durable as they have run into them with car. But the more open and fold them back up the worse they get. We just got a second Luigi car so have them as backup. But if made from plastic would of been better.

One word - FUN
This is incredibly fun. Set up is 1.2.3 and your off to the races. Video quality is decent. I was really impressed at how responsive the kart is. My kids love this.

Cool toy
Cool toy, but needs space and should be used for older children at least over kindergarten age.

The greatest thing nintendo has released to date?
This is an amazing product, basically it's the future of gaming in a way. It's augmented reality with a physical kart to drive through your house... in whatever type or style of course you design. If you dont have a single room big enough for a track you can link rooms together for a giant course. It works exactly as its described. My entire family is having incredible fun playing this. The kids are coming up with all kinds of ideas for courses and ways to decorate them with their toys. The possibilities are only limited by the amount of imagination put into your track design. This is a great product from start to finish. The only drawback is that there is no physical copy of the game, so I wonder what happens two generations of gaming consoles in the future. It requires internet connection to play, so when nintendo shuts off the servers for the switch in 10 or so years... will it just be a toy to put on a shelf and collect dust? In the present year of 2021, it's totally worth the 90 or so dollars. If scalpers raise the price it wont be worth it, but at Nintendo's price it is a great purchase. The only reason I'm giving it four stars is due to it not including a physical copy of the game itself.

Great product but buyers outside of the US beware!
We bought this for our 8 year old who loves his Nintendo Switch. The concept of the game is perfect and it’s great for him to play something a little different. What we didn’t realize is that as we are outside the USA we couldn’t download the online game that accompanies the cart. We only managed to get around it by creating a new Nintendo account and stating that we were in the US so that we could download it. That was really the only negative part but there was an easy way to get around it, so no biggie. As Nintendo Switch is so international I feel this is something that they need to fix internally as it makes no sense to limit download only to accounts registered in the US. Apart from that, it’s a great game.

Def mario kart fun, though limited to 15 feet.
I'm not inclined to write many reviews, but I felt I should for this game. I've been a huge mario kart fan my entire life. I picked this game up to play with family and setup in house. It's real easy to get setup and playing. The game itself you download off nintendo store for free. Syncing the kart is easy, just a simple button press on the kart itself while following on screen instructions. The kart moves faster than I thought, so a big room is best for doing this, or if you have linking hallways and connected rooms. *tip* it doesn't like driving up on rugs from a flat surface gets stuck; use a few plain pieces of notebook paper connecting flat surface to over rug and it'll drive up it just fine.When playing game, you're limited to the kart being within 15 feet of the console. You can be a room away or through a hallway, but if you start approaching the 15 foot mark, it literally hits a deadzone spot and gives you connection errors and half connects...so it's like dialup for the time you're out of the 15ft or close to it, then instantly when back reconnects strongly. I think this is a huge limitation. Would be nice to have a way to extend that distance with a switch extender or something could plug in another room or down the hall.Great game, the only thing that limits it is the 15 foot distance, which theres no way to extend or compensate. Most people don't have huge clear rooms, so using multiple connected rooms is helpful, but then the 15ft limitation gets in the way.
