So, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe's online isn't superior to the Wii U version's.

Do you usually have lag/slow connection? If ya do that's probably why not the game itself (part of it could be as well)

I don't and while I can't speak for those putting up online gameplay videos, it's safe to assume not all of them have shaky connections.

The only issue I've experienced is other players not always breaking the item boxes. Not a huge issue to me actually...

In MK8 or MK8D? If the former, you'll experience it in MK8D aswell. If the latter, it was the same in MK8. Eitherway, there's been no significant improvement made to MK8D's online, they both perform pretty much exactly the same.

Talking about MK8D. Overall, it's been pretty good.
