Answer: True

Bowser is the Koopa King who loves to race. He has great speed, but bad acceleration. His signature course is Bowser's Castle.

2. When the race is about to begin, Lakitu comes in with the traffic light hanging on a fishing pole. Which number officially starts the countdown to the race?

Answer: Three

When that number comes up on the screen, that means the first red light will appear. If all of the lights turn green, then it's go time! Lakitu is also a playable character in this game as well.

3. Which of these statements is true about the game?

Answer: All of these are correct

It's OK to have these things in "Mario Kart 8". Anything can happen when you're playing with your friends, or by yourself.

Answer: True

This is their first playable appearance in a "Mario Kart" game. The seven Koopalings are Larry, Ludwig, Iggy, Roy, Wendy, Lemmy, and Morton.

5. What happens when you cross the finish line after all three laps of racing?

Answer: The race is officially over

When that happens, Lakitu will come in while waving the checkered flag. That means you have finished the entire race. It is a true "Mario Kart" tradition since the series began.

6. Mario Kart Stadium is located in the Mushroom Cup.

Answer: True

It is also the game's very first course. The other three courses in this cup are Sweet Sweet Canyon, Thwomp Ruins, and Water Park. This track has a cheering crowd and of course, fireworks.

7. How many karts can carry in the starting grid for this game?

Answer: twelve

This is the second game in the "Mario Kart" series to use this feature. The first was "Mario Kart Wii". The grid is divided up in two rows of six karts. Get ready to start your engines!

8. How many playable characters, including the downloadable ones, are there in all?

Answer: Thirty-six

Each character has a different weight class ranging from lightest to heaviest. These characters love to race against each other in "Mario Kart 8".

9. Can you do a rocket start when the race officially starts?

Answer: Yes

Of course you can do that. To use it, just wait for the countdown to show the number 2. When it does reach that number, press and hold the acceleration button. When the green light comes up, you'll leave the starting line with a nice speed boost.

10. Getting sixty points in Grand Prix mode awards the player with a triple-star rank.
