Bet you thought you were going to see fabulous times or lap records.  Nope!  Instead...

We know the obvious Pirahna Plants and Goombas, but can you find the following things in "MarioKart: Double Dash!!"?

Snifits
Luigi's UN-haunted Mansion
A Mushroom hot-air balloon
The "Super Mushroom" restaurant
A P-Wing
Hammer Bros.
8-bit Koopa Troopa
A picture of young King Bowser
Poochy

Some are easy, some are harder, but they're all there and fun to look for.

Enjoy!

I found Luigi's mansion (not hard)
I found a pixelated p-wing, and the original super Mario brothers sprites on trucks in the bridge level.

I also think it's interesting that the bridge has a whirlpool under it. Is it some reference to something I haven't seen?

How about the easy-to-spot Helicopter Yoshi?

Roy, you forgot to mention Donkey Kong Jr. There's actually a lot of him. I found him while looking for all the others (which I found).

Was that DK Jr? It looked like just regular DK (which made no sense, cause he's playable.  Course, in my book, DK Jr and current DK are the same anyway...but then again, the Baby Mario Bros. are in the same game as the Super Mario Bros...Ack! Must...stop..trying...to make things...make sense...)

Anywho, this all just proves how much you can miss in this game simply zipping by at 70 mph!

It was DK Jr. because he was wearing a white T-shirt. But it seems they gave him a hair curl, a la Donkey Kong, so I could see how you got confused. (For the records, I believe that DK Jr and DK are different characters.)

Or how about the easily spotted (though more difficult to recognise) Yoshi train?

Oh, and does anybody know what it says on the top of that Birdo picture?  It has something in samll text, then "Ribbon", really big, then small again at the bottom, "Birdo watching".

I think I've got it:
It says "Super Famicon Magazine" at the top.

...perhaps.

I like all the cameos they have in the game. Who would've thought you'd see the Yoshi Transformations from Yoshi's Island again...
Or DK Jr. He's been outta the scene for a while too.

Oh yeah, and did anyone recognize that the background in Tilt-a-Kart is the background to one of the Warp Zones in Super Mario Sunshine?

Yeah, that's pretty much the point of that whole level. And the music starts differently, too.

Man, I've never seen any of this stuff. I wish I had my GCN around to find it.

Hey, people...



The Donkey Kong with the curl is actually Rare's newly designed Donkey Kong Jr.!

While the Donkey Kong in the T-shirt is Nintendo's original designed Donkey Kong Jr.!



However, in any case, Donkey Kong Jr. is the copyright of Nintendo!

When did Rare design a Donkey Kong Jr.? Are you talking about Donkey Kong in the Donkey Kong Country series? Or something new?
