'''Animal Crossing''' is the fourth and final course | '''Animal Crossing''' is the fourth and final course 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 every time it is played, Animal Crossing changes season every time it is played, which slightly changes some areas of the course. | ||
In offline play, except for Time Trials (which uses summer as the only theme for the sake of consistency among Time Trial records), 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|ZL}} selects autumn, and holding {{button|wiiu|ZR}} selects winter.<ref>GameXplain (August 19, 2015).

After this, a right turn comes up leading to a left turn and then a [[Glide Ramp]], which goes over a small [[nookipedia:River|river]] and into another part of the [[nookipedia:Town|town]] with a [[nookipedia:Fountain|fountain]] whose water can be [[trick]]ed off of and floating [[nookipedia:Balloon|balloons]] with [[Item Box]]es attached to them. Many [[nookipedia:Villager Houses|houses]] can been seen in the background here. | ||
The track then goes straight, until a hill turns left and onto the [[nookipedia:Sea|beach]] with [[nookipedia:Shells|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 [[Dash Panel]] on it which crosses over the hill that was descended earlier. At this point, players may fall to the lower section of the track; if they do, then they will get picked up by [[Lakitu]] and brought to the next section of the track. In this section, the track curves right, the [[nookipedia:Museum|museum]] can be seen in the background, and [[Mr. Resetti]] occasionally pops out of the ground, acting as a hazard, unless the season is winter, in which case [[nookipedia:Snowboy|Snowboys]] instead appear as obstacles, functioning like [[Snowman|Snowmen]]. After this corner, there is a left turn to the [[Finish Line (object)|finish line]]. | |||
