Koopa Troopa Beach, alternatively Koopa Beach, is a series of Tracks featured in numerous Mario Kart games.

Appearances Edit

Super Edit

Two Koopa Beach tracks appear in Super Mario Kart:

• Koopa Beach 1 is the first track in the Star Cup. The stage is largely surrounded by water. Cheep Cheeps make their first Mario Kart apperance in this course as hazards that can make a racer spin out and lose coins.They bounce in the water and sometimes in the sand. The shallow water will provide a slight decrease in speed, but not much. If a player stays in the deep water too long, Lakitu will have to fish them back on to the beach. One island near the end provides a fork in the road due to grass in the middle. This course reappears in Super Circuit as the third course in the Extra Lightning Cup.
• Koopa Beach 2 is a plain beach with Cheep Cheeps and deep waters as obstacles. The water in this course slows racers down slightly. Dark patches of water populate the middle of the track. If a racer spends too much time in it, Lakitu pulls him or her back onto the track. The middle can be traversed by multiple routes, including an island with a single item box. Grass populates the middle of this track. The starting area is separated from the main track. This course returns as the first track in the Extra Special Cup of Super Circuit with the Cheep Cheeps removed. In DS it is the first course in the Leaf Cup, and mission 5-3 takes place here. In this mission, Toad has to destroy 5 moving item boxes. The Staff ghost in Mario Kart DS for this track uses Yoshi in the Egg 1.

64 Edit

Koopa Troopa Beach is the third track of the Mushroom Cup. It takes place on the sandy shores of a mostly rocky island. The way racers drive around the middle of the island is reminiscent of Koopa Beach 2. A large Koopa-shaped rock appears near the starting line. There are several ramps near the middle and end of the course. One leads to a tunnel cutting through the island that acts as an effective shortcut; another is taller than the rest and leads to an Item Box perched on a rock that always contains a Spiny Shell.

Crabs are the main obstacles on this track, and touching them causes a spin-out. Palm trees can also cause spin-outs. The tide can cause trouble if trying to take a certain shortcut near the middle of the course.

Koopa Troopa Beach returns in Mario Kart 7 as the first course of the Banana Cup under the name N64 Koopa Beach.
