The game features eight playable characters from the [[Mario (franchise)|''Mario'' franchise]], such as [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Yoshi]], and [[Bowser]]. However, some other characters from the series acts as obstacles in the game's tracks, like [[Thwomp]]s, [[Monty Mole|Gopher]]s, [[Piranha Plant]]s, and [[Cheep Cheep|Flopping Cheep Cheep]]s. [[Boo|Ghost]]s do not act as enemies, but both as item and as part of the [[Ghost Valley|Ghost Valley tracks]]' background. Yoshi, Bowser, and Donkey Kong Jr. are the only drivers in this game to have their own taunts when surpassing other racers regardless if they are being used by the player or CPU. The others do not have their own taunts and instead the standard beep is heard when surpassing other racers, but can only be heard when used by the player. | The game features eight playable characters from the [[Mario (franchise)|''Mario'' franchise]], such as [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Yoshi]], and [[Bowser]].

As stated in the game's manual, [[Lakitu]] is the owner of all the racetracks, thus overseeing all races. He appears on the track to start the race, to warn the player if they are going the wrong way on the course, and when they fall off the edge of the track or go out of bounds. If the latter happens, Lakitu transports the racer back onto the course at the price of two [[Coin]]s. A Cheep Cheep balloon distributes the trophy to the GP winner. | As stated in the game's manual, [[Lakitu]] is the owner of all the racetracks, thus overseeing all races.
