Mario Kart tracks that never returned after debut
Posted on 2 months ago by Ethan in 3DS, Features, General Nintendo, Wii | 0 comments
The Mario Kart series is home to many, many different courses, and each new game in the series adds even more to that big number. A ton of old tracks were remade for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe’s Booster Course Pass, but a select few of them didn’t make the cut. Not just that, but some Mario Kart courses have never reappeared after their initial debut.
Today, we’re listing off all the Mario Kart tracks that never returned to future entries in the series. Do keep in mind that we won’t count Mario Kart Tour here – eventually, its service will end and the tracks in it will presumably become inaccessible. In case that happens, we’re sticking to courses that haven’t appeared in any main series games since their debut.

Jakks Pacific bringing Mario Kart ride-on to the UK later this year
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 0 comments
Jakks Pacific is teaming up with Nintendo for the first Nintendo-licensed Mario Kart ride-on.
Super Mario Kart Ride-On is the real life counterpart to Mario’s kart from Mario Kart 7, sound effects and all. The vehicle can be switched between on-road and off-road tires.
Jakks Pacific’s Ken Goodison said of the ride:
“For the first time ever, you can be in the driver seat of your very own Nintendo Kart. It’s an exciting little runner that we expect to sit competitively within other 6V ride-ons and with it being so relevant to the Nintendo Mario Kart, it should do very well.”
Super Mario Kart Ride-On will debut in the UK this coming fall/winter.
