'''''Mario Kart Arcade GP 2''''' is the second game in the [[Mario Kart (series)|''Mario Kart Arcade GP'' series]] and the ninth in the ''Mario Kart'' series overall. It is a follow-up to ''[[Mario Kart Arcade GP]]'', and the game before ''[[Mario Kart Arcade GP DX]]''. The game has custom karts for characters, similar to ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart DS]]''. It contains virtually all the content of the original, but greatly expands it with the addition of several new courses, items and racers. Like the predecessor, ''Pac-Man'' characters appear as playable in this game. The game also introduces [[Mametchi]] as a playable character. In-game, it appears to be broadcast live and has color-commentary of the player by a narrator, whose language depends on the region of the game.

==How To Play==
First, players can adjust their seat within the time limit by moving a lever near their feet and sliding to any position on the arcade machine. After that happens, players can choose a character to play as. Then, players can take a picture of themselves within the time limit; if the player does not take the picture, a countdown starts to force the player to take it. On some instances, the camera cannot be used. The picture of the current character is instead used.
First, players can adjust their seat within the time limit by moving a lever near their feet and sliding to any position on the arcade machine. After that happens, players can choose a character to play as. Then, players can take a picture of themselves using the camera lens within the time limit; if the player does not take the picture, a countdown starts to force the player to take it. On some instances, the camera cannot be used. The picture of the current character is instead used.


When the race starts, the players' object is to finish in 1st place. If they get a lower place, they must retry to unlock the course by giving the game certain money or some tokens. If players get 1st place, they can continue if they pay the game another token or dollar(s). If not, the game is over.

===Grand Prix===
===Grand Prix===
In Grand Prix, the player races against five computer drivers for winning the trophies in every race. The goal of each race is to finish in first place within the time limit. There are three engine levels available: 50cc, 100cc, and 150cc, and as with the previous ''Mario Kart'' installments, is linear with the difficulty. 50cc being the slowest (Easy), 100cc being the standard (Normal) and 150cc being the fastest (Master). There are 4 difficulty levels, and each one has two stages. Each cup has 2 tracks, separated into 4 rounds. The first 2 rounds are the tracks in normal conditions, and the last 2 rounds the same tracks in different conditions (e.g. DK Jungle changes to rain). After having completed each round, the player receives a challenge, similar to the [[Mario Kart DS#Mission Mode|Mission Mode]] that appears in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]''. Unlike [[Mario Kart Arcade GP|the previous game]], clearing the challenge is not necessary to complete a cup. Also, when the player is using a Mario Card, the player receives [[Mario Coin]]s depending on their performance, up to a maximum of 15. Extra mode makes a return, only under the name of Special Cup (Reverse mode). In initial gameplay, a player can select the next round only after winning the first round. When the players completes all 4 rounds, they can play a "challenge game" stage.

The goal of each race is to finish in first place within the time limit (if the player is in first place and then times out rather than finishing, the round will not count as completed).

===Time Trial===
===Time Attack===
In Time Trial mode, the user tries to get the fastest time on the tracks.
In Time Attack mode, the user tries to get the fastest time on the tracks. To select Time Attack, the player must hold VS Cancel while selecting a class (50cc is not available in Time Attack). The player starts with 3 Mushrooms in Time Attack, and the number of coins on track is reduced to ten during 150cc Time Attack (compared to 25 in 100cc Time Attack).
 
A difference in the HUD between this game and [[Mario Kart Arcade GP|the first game]] is that the remaining time is moved to the top-right and the total time is made larger and moved all the way to the top-left. There is no commentary during Time Attack games.


===VS===
===VS===
After the players insert coins, the machine starts a search for VS races. If players are found, the game starts a VS Match. Like the previous game, up to four players can play together. In VS, the players first select an engine class, select a character, takes a picture (if necessary), then votes for a course. After, each player will be given 3 random items. Unlike the previous game, in multiplayer mode players in the minimap are given colors depending on their player number:

Unlike the previous game, in multiplayer mode players in the minimap are given colors depending on their player number: Player 1 is red; Player 2 is orange; Player 3 is green; Player 4 is blue; and CPUs are dark blue. If fewer than four players gather for a race then CPU drivers are added to make up four racers.


{| class="wikitable"
During the race, the bottom-left screen displays the player number (unlike the first game, which did not do so), and there is no speedometer in the bottom-right, just showing the coin count (just like the first game did). Also, the commentator says the player number before the character's name except for CPU-controlled karts.

If less than four players gather for a race then CPU drivers are added depending on how many people join:
When the race is over, players can choose if they want to continue with the same opponents or not. If two or more players decide to continue, the selection process restarts from the very beginning (players select a class first unlike in single player where the class and mode is not re-selected). If only one player decides to continue, it will change to a Grand Prix/Time Attack game for that player (this time only where the player selects the class and mode, before character select).

[[Mario Coin]]s are coins that the player can pick up in ''Mario Kart Arcade GP 2''. If the player gains enough Mario Coins and regular [[Coin]]s, they can unlock prizes to save on their Mario Card (e.g. new karts, special items).

If the player gains enough Mario Coins and regular [[Coin]]s, they can unlock prizes to save on their Mario Card (e.g. new karts, special items). Upon collecting 4000 Mario Coins, players will unlock the ability to change to a first-person perspective akin to that of ''[[Mario Kart 7]]''. This is done by pressing the VS Cancel button during a race.

''Mario Kart Arcade GP 2'' doesn't feature the normal cube item boxes seen in previous games; it comes with multi-colored, hexagonal item boxes. They have a white question mark while [[Fake Item Box|Jack-in-the-boxes]] (fake Item Boxes) have a white, upside-down question mark. When taken, they instantly regenerate, unlike the other ''Mario Kart'' games, in which they take a while.

''Mario Kart Arcade GP 2'' brings back all courses from the original ''Mario Kart Arcade GP'' and adds four new courses into two cups. There are eight cups in total, each one with two tracks and a challenge in the final. The cups are organized into 4 rounds, the first 2 rounds are the tracks in normal conditions, and the last 2 rounds the same tracks in different conditions, like rain in DK Jungle.  


Rankings are now unofficially managed at:
After finishing all four races from each stage, a Challenge Game comes up, in which the player is not required to complete for winning the cup. Each of them requires the player to drive to a goal under a certain amount of time while under a certain condition, such as driving backwards through a road of banana peels.


*[https://www.speedrun.com/mkagp2/ Speedrun.com]
Winning all cups, the player unlocks advanced courses, the [[Mirror Mode]].
