User:MarioKartManiac

Announcement (December 29, 2013)
The reason I have not been on the Super Mario Wiki for so long is that my computer broke in November, I joined Nookipedia, and I feel that the hard work I did for the Super Mario Wiki over the summer was not valued enough. I will no longer be editing for the Super Mario Wiki nor will I be editing for Nookipedia anymore. I would edit more if the users of the Super Mario Wiki would focus more on what is contributed by a user, instead of how much a user contributes. If you want to keep in contact with me, I am MarioKartManiac on Miiverse.

MarioKartManiac Synopsis
Hello! I am MarioKartManiac! I joined the Super Mario Wiki back on Saturday, March 9, 2013. Before I was MarioKartManiac, I was Driver104. I changed my name to MarioKartManiac on Monday, May 27, 2013. During the 2012 Christmas season, I was becoming a big Mario fan, so I wanted to learn a lot more about Mario Kart since I was getting Mario Kart: Super Circuit that year. I found the Super Mario Wiki, and I used it very often. I decided I should join a few months later just to fix any minor mistakes I found on the site. When I joined, I never knew I would make new articles, or even have a friend to talk to. These past few months, I have enjoyed being a part of the Super Mario Wiki and I will continue to be an active user on this website for as long as possible.

Mario Kart 8 Retro Track Predictions (Narrowed Down)
'''Hello guys! It's time to take a break of Youtube and it's time to show you what Mario Kart retro tracks I think will make it to Mario Kart 8! I have heard that their will be 5 retro cups, but I am not sure of the name of the new cup. I am not sure if this is true yet, but I will put my Top 16 tracks in the Shell, Banana, Leaf, and Lightning Cups and the other 4 tracks in the Unknown Cup. I will be narrowing down my battle course chocies at a later time.'''

Before we begin, I'd like to show you the number of tracks I'll be using from each past Mario Kart game to organize the Mario Kart 8 retro cups.


 * SNES: 3 (8 of its 20 tracks have been used in previous Mario Kart games.)
 * N64: 1 (11 of its 16 tracks have been used in previous Mario Kart games.)
 * GBA: 4 (7 of its 20 tracks have been used in previous Mario Kart games.)
 * GCN: 2 (10 of its 16 tracks have been used in previous Mario Kart games.)
 * DS: 3 (8 of its 16 tracks have been used in previous Mario Kart games.)
 * WII: 3 (4 of its 16 tracks have been used in previous Mario Kart games.)
 * 3DS: 4 (0 of its 16 tracks have been used in previous Mario Kart games.)

Now that you have some backround knowledge, here are the tracks!

MarioKartManiac's Marvelous Monday Melody
'''On July 15, 2013, I began something called MarioKartManiac's Marvelous Monday Melody. Every Monday, I pick out a song from the Mario series that I have found catchy, awesome, or scary. When I leave you a message on a Monday, you will get that days melody. Below is a chart listing all of my Monday Melodies. Have fun listening!'''
