Some characters also make a return after a long absence from the series, such as [[Diddy Kong]], [[Funky Kong]], and [[Birdo]], who were last playable in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'', [[Petey Piranha]], who was last playable in ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'', and [[Donkey Kong Jr.]], who was last playable in ''[[Super Mario Kart]]''. Currently, there are only three ''Mario'' characters and one non-''Mario'' character from previous ''Mario Kart'' games that are not playable in this game, those being [[Koopa Paratroopa|Paratroopa]] from ''Mario Kart: Double Dash!!'', [[R.O.B.]] from ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'' and [[Wiggler]] and [[Honey Queen]] from ''[[Mario Kart 7]]''.
