It’s been almost 30 years since Mario Kart came out on the Super Famicom. But this does not stop here, but now the twentieth Mario Kart championship is celebrated. Almost 10 years after its release on the SNES, this annual competition was created. It quickly became very well known and is now in its 20th competition no less. There are all kinds of events, from time trials, battle modes or team races.
Yes indeed, is not an official Nintendo competition, but it is really well organized in every way. We leave you the “official” announcement of SMK Championships
