Unlike the other Mario Kart games, Mario Kart Arcade GP has 93 items, of which 72 are new. Some drivers can obtain special items that other drivers cannot obtain, much like Mario Kart: Double Dash!! The player can use only three per race, and each track has a different selection of items to use. Completing a certain cup unlocks a new item.

Item categories

Items in Mario Kart Arcade GP can be placed into several categories based on their effects.

Category	Description
Lock-on shot	Targets an opponent with a reticle and homes in on them.
Shoots forward	Travels forward in a straight line.
Drops backward	Drops on the ground behind the kart.
Shoots backward	Travels backward in a straight line.
Shoots forward or backward	Travels in a straight line either forwards or backwards.
Melee	Attacks opponents at close range.
Status	Affects the user's kart.
Other	Unique items that do not fall into the other categories.

Basic items

Basic items are those which are available to all characters. Starter items are available from the beginning of the game, while prize items are awarded for winning races. The Dash Mushroom is an exception, as it is only available during Time Attack mode and during the first race on Rainbow Downhill.
