Cameos and Products

While Mario himself has been featured in countless cameos over the years, the Kart series itself has rarely appeared as a part of other games. The most notable cameo appearance is probably the pictured Mario Circuit stage in the recent Super Smash Bros. Brawl, which comes complete with racing Shyguys ready to knock the brawlers twelve ways from Sunday.

The karters have been featured on a variety of products, from radio controlled cars and slot cars to plush toys and telephones. But the coolest Kart product may very well be the limited edition Mario Kart stylus available to Japanese Club Nintendo members and E3 2006 attendees like us. Suckers!
