MarioKartManiac Synopsis

Hello! I am MarioKartManiac! I joined the Super Mario Wiki back on Saturday, March 9, 2013. Before I was MarioKartManiac, I was Driver104. I changed my name to MarioKartManiac on Monday, May 27, 2013. During the 2012 Christmas season, I was becoming a big Mario fan, so I wanted to learn a lot more about Mario Kart since I was getting Mario Kart: Super Circuit that year. I found the Super Mario Wiki, and I used it very often. I decided I should join a few months later just to fix any minor mistakes I found on the site. When I joined, I never knew I would make new articles, or even have a friend to talk to. These past few months, I have enjoyed being a part of the Super Mario Wiki and I will continue to be an active user on this website for as long as possible.

Mario Kart 8 Retro Track Predictions (Narrowed Down)

Hello guys! It's time to take a break of Youtube and it's time to show you what Mario Kart retro tracks I think will make it to Mario Kart 8! I have heard that their will be 5 retro cups, but I am not sure of the name of the new cup. I am not sure if this is true yet, but I will put my Top 16 tracks in the Shell, Banana, Leaf, and Lightning Cups and the other 4 tracks in the Unknown Cup. I will be narrowing down my battle course chocies at a later time.

Before we begin, I'd like to show you the number of tracks I'll be using from each past Mario Kart game to organize the Mario Kart 8 retro cups.

SNES: 3 (8 of its 20 tracks have been used in previous Mario Kart games.)
N64: 1 (11 of its 16 tracks have been used in previous Mario Kart games.)
GBA: 4 (7 of its 20 tracks have been used in previous Mario Kart games.)
GCN: 2 (10 of its 16 tracks have been used in previous Mario Kart games.)
DS: 3 (8 of its 16 tracks have been used in previous Mario Kart games.)
WII: 3 (4 of its 16 tracks have been used in previous Mario Kart games.)
3DS: 4 (0 of its 16 tracks have been used in previous Mario Kart games.)

Now that you have some backround knowledge, here are the tracks!

Shell Cup	Banana Cup	Leaf Cup	Lightning Cup	Unknown Cup

Mario Kart Fun Facts!

If you know of two or more Mario Karts, you know they aren't the same. Enjoy this section of my user page that I have made up that tells you about fun facts from all different Mario Kart games!

Mario Kart 64

Mario Kart 64 is the first Mario Kart game to show elevation on race tracks and battle courses.
