'''Mine Carts''' (also formatted as '''mine carts''' and '''Minecarts'''), also referred to simply as '''carts''', are vehicles that appear in the [[Donkey Kong (franchise)|''Donkey Kong'' franchise]] and [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]]. Mine Carts often serve as a means of transportation in rollercoaster-type scenarios, where the characters are required to avoid incoming obstacles as a Mine Cart moves them forward. | '''Mine Carts''' (also formatted as '''mine carts''' and '''Minecarts'''), also referred to simply as '''carts''', are vehicles that appear in the [[Donkey Kong (franchise)|''Donkey Kong'' franchise]] and [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]].

In ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'', | In ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'', '''trolleys''' appear in the [[Mole Mines]]. Midway through the mines, if [[Mario]] takes a lower path with tracks, he will get knocked back by a trolley ridden by a [[Shy Guy]], who runs off leaving a [[Frog Coin]] behind after crashing. Another one is featured in the minigame [[Mine Car]]. The track consists of two parts: a "3D" maze-like course collecting speed-boosting mushrooms, and a "2D" portion collecting coins. The goal is to clear the mines in the fastest time possible. | ||

Carts appear in ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]'' in two levels: [[High-Speed Cart Race]] and [[Quit it Already, Tap-Tap!]]. When a [[Yoshi]] gets on a cart, it rides the track on its own. Yoshi can jump, but with the momentum of the cart he will always land back in it unless he lands on another platform. A cart is seen in a village hut in [[Spear Guys' Village Found!]], but is blocked off by walls. | Carts appear in ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]'' in two levels: [[High-Speed Cart Race]] and [[Quit it Already, Tap-Tap!]].
