* After the countless conflicts between the Mushroom Kingdom and the Koopa Troop, as chronicled in the plaforming games. the two sides made a treaty that guaranteed the coexistance of the two parties. As a celebration of the peace, a karting tournament, similar to the Olympics, was held. The leaders of the two factions agreed to compete themselves, along with the Mario, two athletes from each faction, and two foreigners, Yoshi and Donkey Kong Jr. The tournament was held throughout both countries as a sign of unity. Even Bowser's mighty fortresses now became a sign of unity and cooperation. The entire affair was a success, and future tournaments would be held every few years.

** Better idea, The Koopa of SuperMarioKart loved karting immensely but when Wario stole and redesigned his kart (this part isn't WMG, it actually says in the MarioKart 64 manual Wario stole the kart),he got depressed and and killed himself after he wasn't allowed to enter the Super Circuit. Unfortunately he was granted permission for Double Dash since the Pipe-frame Karts were thrown out,so a relative took over for Double Dash. The relative needed a break for a while,and the old Koopa was resurrected and therefore was ready for DS. In Wii the relative was done taking a break and Dry Bones just had to come back again.

[[SuperMario64 Koopa The Quick]] clearly likes racing, it simply makes sense with his character. The SuperMarioKart predates his introduction technically, but that's a minor issue.

** Alternatively, Rainbow Road is the love and harmony the treaty brought about given physical form through the will of the Power Stars. It started off as a barebones track of rainbow bricks, but as more and more people joined the races, spreading the harmony across more and more kingdoms, the road grew in size and detail, even incorporating warm memories of the past.(Everyone showing up as neon faces in the stars in 64, and the floating rainbow statues of items in Double Dash) Once Rosalina joined, as a sign of thanks, she combined her cosmic powers with the power of the stars to allow Rainbow Road to grow to epic proportions, incorporating her own star fueled interstellar technology to let racers travel all around the Mushroom Galaxy on a once-in-a-lifetime joyride of companionship. and since more and more people join the races and it reaches out further and further, the Rainbow Road will only become more and more beautiful and epic.

Notable examples include Donkey Kong from Donkey Kong Island, Princess Daisy from Sarasaland, Rosalina from Comet Observatory, and Queen Bee from Honeyhive Kingdom. As this occurred, locations from their kingdoms were also modified into race tracks. Eventually, old tracks were reused as parts of new tournaments.

Ruined Forever is now Darth Wiki and not to be wicked in that way.


Nintendo is aware of the many cries of RuinedForever over the lack of some [[EnsembleDarkhorse fan-favorite characters]], possibly because they wanted to bring more attention to the four newcomers. DLC in the form of veteran racers remedies this. Don't think Nintendo forgot about those guys, either; they'll be playable in upcoming entries in the spin-off titles (Mario Party 9, Fortune Street).

The late November 3DS system update will add the ability for developers to release downloadable content for games in the 3DS eShop, but Nintendo president Satoru Iwata has revealed there'll be no Nintendo DLC until 2012.

Speaking to investors after the semi-annual financial report, Iwata said:

Nintendo will also offer something like this for the titles Nintendo publishes next year, in a way that should be appreciated by our consumers.

That means we '''most likely won't''' see any extra cars or courses in Mario Kart 7 for example, but we could see additional stages offered in Luigi's Mansion 2.
