In General Gaming

October 17, 2006 - Namco Bandai has announced an updated version of its Mario Kart arcade racer, Mario Kart Arcade GP. Titled Mario Kart Arcade GP 2, the game promises new characters, including Waruigi and Tamagotchi, new items and new courses.



Four player races should be more fun than ever with some of the new features. The game now has voice commentary narrating the happenings of races. New frames have also been added to the Namcam system, which allows players to create an avatar by taking a picture using the game's built in camera.

Mario Kart Arcade GP 2 is due for Japanese arcade release shortly.







Hey Manuel when you were in Japan did you try the first one?

who the hell is Waruigi?! why the hell is Tamagotchi a racer!? and why the hell didn't we get the first one over here?!

Because North America Fails.

But I do belive that it did come to America...Maybe some Arcades Imported it?

Waluigi is a Luigi "wannabe" that appeared in some game a little while ago. He first appeared in Mario Tennis 64 and GBC, I belive. He has these green clothes and the "L" on his hat is up-side-down. He is the opposite of Luigi, Like Wario is the opposite of Mario. Waluigi and Wario is most likely brothers.

It's like asking why we couldn't get it first.

no, i know who is, but the article says:



i guess maybe it's a typo? but the "R" key is pretty far across the key board from "L"

EDIT: or maybe some ronry Korean dude wrote the article?

Yeah, you've got a point there. My guess is that it might be little knowledge about the character, but that's just my guess. People these days you know, they don't really know about everything they're supposed to all the time.

Or maybe that's his .

Waluigi is "Waruiji" in Japanese syllables.
ワルイージ

In case you didn't know... the word "warui" (like in "Warui-gi") means "bad". In fact it's a pun inside the name.

Wario was also made with this in mind. In colloquial Japanese "warui" becomes "warii", which can be made into Wario quite easily.
