Mario Kart, a game that has existed for almost as long as the gaming consoles we know and love today have. And in all that time there has not been a single moment when the game went stale, in fact the opposite, friendships were forged in the crucible of the heated battle for the finish line. Frenemies were made between brave competitors who sought to come out on top. It truly is a wonder of the modern world, connecting people no matter what language they speak or even how much of a gamer they are.

So today, we take a moment to remember the great times we have had playing one of the most engaging games in history, with this list of throwbacks for over 30s, who are very rationally missing their Mario Kart Marathons. And we want you to know that we are also at a loss without them and hope to have one very soon.

  • There is a special place for people who overtake you at the very last moment in Mario Kart. It is almost like those people who hoard bananas as protection from shells. It is a despicable move and is wholly against the ethos of the game. So if you have someone in your life who does this, let them know they are not ok.

    EVERY SHOOTING STAR YOU SEE AT NIGHT => IS A RACER FALLING OFF RAINBOW ROAD
    via mario_kart_memes

  • Honestly, not something we would share with the kids as it could be very badly misconstrued. Especially if you are the kind of family who might enjoy an evening of star gazing. The last thing you need is for your kids to lose their minds the next time they see you fly off the edge of a rainbow road race.

Toad is very cheerful and loyal. He does his best to help Mario and Luigi in their efforts to protect the Mushroom Kingdom from Bowser, even if he ends endangering himself in the process. >
