'''"*''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'' will become the first game in the ''Mario Kart'' series to get released before a [[Super Mario (series)|''Mario'' platform game]] gets released on the same system.

This trivia takes advantage of a very specific scenario to make an "interesting" point, which is very easy to observe for any game if you think things through hard enough and had a convenient game series to compare to. I can say that ''Mario Party 4'' and ''Mario Party 8'' are the only ''Mario Party'' games to be released before a ''Mario Kart'' on a system.
'''"*This is the first time a ''Mario Kart'' game was ported to a system without emulation."'''
This trivia is very silly. It states pretty much the obvious, something that can be easily included in the opening paragraph, and it had to include "without emulation" to make a point otherwise, you cannot count the Virtual Console games. Trivia works best when it has to make the fewest exceptions as possible cover up any flaws noted in it, and this one is perhaps the game that has the greatest exception of games to make a point. {{User:Baby Luigi/sig}} 14:40, 14 January 2017 (EST)

Why are Miis listed as exclusive to MK8

The slot is a question mark so we have no official proof Miis are playable. It is a possibility that the Miis will be in but we can't confirm it until we have some sort of video or screenshot from the game. Fuzzy in New Super Mario Bros.

It's also likely the Mii slot was carried over from the original build of the game and was not taken out at the time of the video. We have no confirmation Miis are going to part of the Switch atm. Alex95sig1.pngAlex95sig2.png 20:37, 13 January 2017 (EST)

Why I got rid of the trivia in the article

"*Mario Kart 8 Deluxe will become the first game in the Mario Kart series to get released before a Mario platform game gets released on the same system. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe will be launched in April 2017 and the Mario platformer, Super Mario Odyssey, will be launched in the holiday season of 2017."

I can say that Mario Party 4 and Mario Party 8 are the only Mario Party games to be released before a Mario Kart on a system.

"*This is the first time a Mario Kart game was ported to a system without emulation."
