If you’re stuck between which version you should buy, there’s no reason to be get too worked up. Both games feature the same story and gameplay, with the only difference being a select few exclusive Pokémon that you’re able to catch.

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is another great game, which we gave a 5-star rating when we reviewed it back in 2017. It’s an especially good title for Christmas, as the family can join in on the split screen multiplayer.
