Play notes about Mario Kart Tour
What is Mario Kart Tour?
Mario Kart Tour is a smartphone game published by Nintendo.
It supports multiple languages including Chinese. In non-Chinese game translation, Chinese sometimes mean only Traditional Chinese. Mario Kart also supports Simplified Chinese. So I played the game for learning.
Where is text?
The main content of game is obviously race. Characters, item selections are texts. In Mario Kart Tour, you need to choose character, kart and glider before race start. Each has each charasteristics.
The words appeared are described below.
Characters
- 马里欧 Mario
- 桃花公主 Princess Peach
- 耀西 Yoshi
- 奇诺比奥 Toad
- 酷霸王 Bowser
- 森喜刚 Donkey Kong
- 迪迪刚 Diddy Kong

It seems translation come from sound. Koopa Troopa comes from visual image.
