'''Animal Crossing''' is the fourth and final | '''Animal Crossing''' is the fourth and final track in the [[Crossing Cup]] in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]''. The course is included with the [[Animal Crossing x Mario Kart 8|''Animal Crossing'' × ''Mario Kart 8'']] downloadable content package for ''Mario Kart 8''. The course is located in an unnamed town from [[nookipedia:Animal Crossing: New Leaf|''Animal Crossing: New Leaf'']]. Similar to how [[Excitebike Arena]] changes layout each time it is played, Animal Crossing changes season every time it is played, although this has little effect on the track and is usually just a visual change. | ||
In offline play, except for Time Trials | In offline play, except for Time Trials, it is possible to select the season by holding down a shoulder button before the race starts if the player is using the Wii U GamePad, the Classic Controller (Pro), or the Wii U Pro Controller. Holding {{Button|wiiu|L}} selects Spring, holding {{Button|wiiu|R}} selects Summer, holding {{button|wiiu|ZR}} selects Winter, and holding {{button|wiiu|ZL}} selects Autumn.<ref>GameXplain (August 19, 2015). [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HHRAv6GLrkk Mario Kart 8 - Season Code in Animal Crossing Track]. YouTube. Retrieved August 21, 2015.</ref> This code returns using the same button combinations in ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe''. When playing in Mirror Mode, the code is inversed: holding {{Button|wiiu|R}} selects Spring, holding {{Button|wiiu|L}} selects Summer, holding {{button|wiiu|ZL}} selects Winter and holding {{button|wiiu|ZR}} selects Autumn.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XkOzCim52cI</ref> | ||
==Course layout== | ==Course layout== | ||
[[File:MK8 | [[File:MK8-DLC-Course-AnimalCrossing-startline.jpg|275px|thumb|left|The starting line in all four seasons.]] | ||
The course starts out next to the | The course starts out next to the Town Tree, Town Hall, and Able Sisters shop before crossing over a bridge and into a forest area with many trees that can be ran into. After this, a right turn comes up leading to a left turn and then a glide pad, which goes over the small river, and into another part of the town with many houses, as well as floating balloons with [[Item Box]]es attached to them. | ||
The track goes straight, until a hill turns left and onto the beach with shells that can be knocked aside. The track then curves left and back up a hill which goes past [[nookipedia:Nook's Cranny|Nook's Cranny]], and onto a bridge with a boost section on it which crosses over the hill that was descended earlier. After this section, the track curves right, and [[Mr. Resetti]] occasionally pops out, acting like a Monty Mole, unless the season is winter. After this corner, there is a left turn to the finish line.{{br|left}} | |||
===Differences between seasons=== | ===Differences between seasons=== | ||
While the different seasons don't change the track layout that much, there are some subtle differences. In the spring, a number of ramps are placed along the track from Mr. Resetti's place to the glider ramp. In the summer, a pair of ramps are placed on the beach. In autumn, the track is set in the evening, and there are leaf piles that release items on the track, similar to [[Maple Treeway]] from ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]''. In the winter, the track is set at night and a lot more slippery than normal, reducing the traction of all vehicles. There are also a number of Snowboys placed around the course which act as destructible walls, like the Snowmen on [[Sherbet Land (GCN)|<small>GCN</small> Sherbet Land]], and Mr. Resetti is absent. The music also changes, depending on the season. In Time Trials, only the summer version is used. | |||

*Just as the beach section starts the player can boost behind a tree and darker sand to cut the corner. | |||
