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 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.

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) | This trivia is very silly.

Thought this fact can be mentioned in the character section.

Why are Miis listed as exclusive to MK8
THEY HAD A SLOT FOR THEM IN THE DEMO

- 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. YoshiGo99 20:36, 13 January 2017 (EST)
Why I got rid of the trivia in the article
