| '''Mametchi''' is a character from {{wp|Tamagotchi}}, a chain of egg-shaped virtual pet toys produced by [[Bandai Namco Entertainment|Bandai]] that have since established a franchise spanning over 20 years, including adaptations to other media such as video games, merchandise, and {{wp|Tamagotchi! (anime)|anime}}. On most Tamagotchi releases, Mametchi is the result of a Tamagotchi with the best possible care, and has been portrayed as a well-mannered and intelligent Tamagotchi with an IQ of 250. Mametchi was initially one of several faces, but gradually became the mascot of the ''Tamagotchi'' franchise.

|
| Mametchi's first (and currently only) appearance in the ''Super Mario'' franchise is in ''[[Mario Kart Arcade GP 2]]'', where he is a playable guest driver presumably added to coincide with Bandai's then-recent merger with Namco. He is categorized as an Easy Control driver, sharing stats with [[Ms. Pac-Man]] and [[Toad]]. His special items are [[Bagubagutchi]], [[Mame Block]], [[Chibi Syrup]], [[Mame Drink]], and [[Giant Pencil]], and his voice clips imitate the beeping sound effect heard in Tamagotchi virtual pets.
| | '''Mametchi''' is a character from the handheld digital pet called a Tamagotchi, housed in a small and simple egg-shaped computer. |
|
| |
|
| As with the other drivers, in addition to a standard kart, Mametchi gets a unique vehicle that slightly reduces acceleration in exchange for increased speed. Mametchi's unique vehicle loosely resembles a Tamagotchi virtual pet that is pulled by a wheeled mechanical Tamagotchi wearing a Kasa.
| | Mametchi appears in the game ''[[Mario Kart Arcade GP 2]]'' as a playable character in light of [[Namco|Namco's]] recent merge with Bandai. In this game, Mametchi is a speed type character like [[Ms. Pac-Man]] and [[Toad (character)|Toad]]. Mametchi has one of the three special items he can obtain during gameplay, a [[Present (Mario Kart)|Present]], a [[Bagubagutchi]], or a [[Mame Drink]]. |

|
| [[Stadium Arena]] and [[Waluigi Stadium (arcade)|Waluigi Stadium]] of the [[Waluigi Cup]] also feature several Tamagotchi-themed advertisements, including cameo appearances of Mametchi's {{fandom|tamagotchi|Mame Family|relatives}}, {{fandom|tamagotchi|Tama-Friends|associates}}, and {{fandom|tamagotchi|Tamagotchi Planet|home planet}}.
