Baby Park is the third track of the Mushroom Cup in Mario Kart: Double Dash!!. This track makes a retro appearance in Mario Kart DS as the last track of the Banana Cup, in Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe as the first track of the Crossing Cup, and in Mario Kart Tour as of the 2022 Cat Tour.

It takes place in an amusement park, with its shape being a short-track style unbanked oval with right turns instead of left turns. Because of its very short length, the lap count has increased to 5 laps in Mario Kart DS and Mario Kart Tour, or 7 laps in Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, Mario Kart 8, and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe.

Layout[]

Mario Kart: Double Dash!![]

This track's layout is a plain simple short-track style oval with no banking (somewhat similar to Martinsville Speedway, but reversed. is smaller, and has no banking) with one side in pink and the other side in blue, supposedly cotton-candy colors. There is also an amusement park themed background and the music sounds excitingly wacky, also resembling Toad Park from Mario Sports Mix. All Green Shells and Red Shells can go over the middle, making this course destructive yet exciting.

A Ferris wheel and a Koopa tent can be seen in the background. Also over the Start/Finish Line and in the background, a sign of Baby Mario and Baby Luigi in diapers can be seen.

All racers must do seven laps, making this the first of two tracks with a new set of laps attached to it. The second is Wario Colosseum with two laps. It is the shortest course-for-lap ever and therefore it is possible to 'overlap' someone multiple times, taking roughly eleven to thirteen seconds per lap.

Mario Kart DS[]

In Mario Kart DS, the lap count was reduced to five and the roller coaster was removed due to the graphics limitations of the DS.

Missions information

Mario Kart 8 (Deluxe)[]

Baby Park makes a return as part of the Animal Crossing X Mario Kart DLC, as the first track of the Crossing Cup in Mario Kart 8. It also returns in its Nintendo Switch port, now being available for free. It is heavily renovated, as it now takes place in a theme park. The track is at a slant and uses anti-gravity for the full duration of the track. Baby Park also has the least amount of possible collectible coins on the track, at 16. Baby Mario and Baby Luigi now have their shirts and dungarees on the Mario Kart sign. The music also speeds up and gets higher in pitch with each lap, not just on the final lap, causing the final lap's music to have the key of B-Major.

Mario Kart Tour[]

The track reappears in Mario Kart Tour, with an updated look similar to Mario Kart 8, but the track is not slanted and isn't in anti-gravity, just like how it was originally. Like Mario Kart DS, the track lasts five laps, though the T variant lasts three due to an extra part of the track being added that makes the track longer.

Shortcuts[]

  • On each turn, a Mushroom or Star can be used to cut off grass sections. for MK8

Trivia![]

  • Petey Piranha is the only character tall enough to be spun out by the roller coaster in this course.
    • Following his inclusion in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, he can't be spun out by the roller coaster.
  • Taking seven laps to complete in most iterations (five in DS), this is easily the shortest course in the series.
    • Coincidentally, both this and Yoshi Circuit first appear in Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, reappeared as a retro course in Mario Kart DS, and returned as a DLC course in Mario Kart 8 (And Deluxe) as well as Mario Kart Tour.
  • In Mario Kart 8, the track, along with the other downloadable courses, Mute City and Big Blue, takes place entirely in anti-gravity. Additionally, in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, with the Booster Course Pass DLC, Sky-High Sundae and Wii Rainbow Road also take place entirely in anti-gravity.
  • In Mario Kart 8, SNES Rainbow Road, N64 Rainbow Road, the new Rainbow Road and this track are the only courses in the game to have the map in different colors instead of just blue. This was changed to white with all three Rainbow Road tracks in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe.
  • In Mario Kart 8, the track's music speeds up after each lap.
  • In Mario Kart 8, the castle in the background is a reference to Sleeping Beauty's Castle at Disneyland Resort.
  • In Mario Kart 8, Luigi's Mansion can be seen in the background.
  • This course and SNES Mario Circuit 3 are the only tracks in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe where it is not possible for the player to perform a trick.
  • Though it might appear to be owned by both baby characters, it's actually owned just by Baby Luigi. [1]
  • A similar track in DS is Test Circle, a course used for testing which cannot be accessed normally.
  • In Mario Kart 8, the rollercoaster's layout resembles an Arrow Dynamics Corkscrew. A more specific layout would be Corkscrew at Cedar Point.
  • In the Mario kart 8 Deluxe,there is a statue baby pink gold peach
