Mario Kart 8
#67
A couple of theories why.

1. Developers don't like using characters created outside of the Nintendo EAD department. Mario Kart is made by Nintendo EAD group No. 1. The New Super Mario Bros. series is developed by Group No. 4. Mario 3D World was made by EAD Tokyo. All these teams have a bond and have been known to use each others characters.

2. Miyamoto likes to whitewash as many Mario games as he can. Remember Paper Mario: Sticker Star?

3. Characters like Fawful are made by Alpha Dream, a second-party subsidiary of Nintendo. It's possible that Nintendo EAD doesn't talk to this company much and they aren't even aware that these characters exist!

4. The Mario Kart developers are lazy. They don't want to make 3D models for characters that have only been seen in 2D. That would take more work and consideration for characters they might not even care about.
