This was recently revealed, but I didn't see any topics of it yet, so I thought it should be said.

According to the poster, all characters from the first one will return (including Pac-Man and friends), as well as Waluigi and...a Tamagotchi named Mametchi (wtf??). It also has new weapons and custom karts like in Mario Kart: DD and DS. I find the Tamagotchi thing interesting, because I'm a sucker for the appeal of the 3rd-party-characters-appearing-in-a-game-you-would-never-expect-to-see-them-in.
Heh, never heard of the 1st MK Arcade GP. >_< This looks sweet though.
ADVERTISING!
That works better with the Sonic pic =(
Also I only know Mario Kart Arcade exists ebcause i played it once in Tenerife but it was a ripoff because after you finished a race you had to pay again to go to the next one >=/ >=/ >=/
Even if you come in 1st, THS?

LIES!
LIES AND BLASPHEMY!
Even if you come in first, yes.
The arcade at The Mall of America has the first... It gets a general "meh" from me. I'm decent at the console versions, but just sucked at this one.

That was what turned me off. At a dollar per play, it'd cost about as much as a console game to complete, so I just quit after the first race. However, the whole Pac-Man in a Mario game thing was very satisfying in a "hey cool crossover" way.
I'm intrigued by it, but if you cannot advance without paying again, it's so not worth it.
Hopefully they'll rectify that mistake in this one.
Actually that setting could be down to the operator. They buy/rent the machine and set up how much per play/round/game etc. If they wanted to, they could set it to freeplay
