The '''Banana Cup''' is a [[cup]] in the [[Mario Kart (series)|''Mario Kart'' series]] introduced in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'' as the sixth cup. It exclusively features [[classic course]]s and is the second retro cup overall; these may be from any cup of a previous game, though they are more commonly from the [[Mushroom Cup]] or [[Flower Cup]]. The cup is somewhat more difficult than the [[Shell Cup]], and its difficulty is comparable to that of the Flower Cup. The emblem of the cup is a [[Banana]]. The Banana Cup also appears in ''[[Mario Tennis Open]]'', following the [[Flower Cup]] and preceding the [[Special Cup#Mario Tennis series|Champions Cup]]. All of the courses in ''Mario Kart DS'' and ''[[Mario Kart 7]]''{{'}}s Banana Cups have reappeared in later games in the series.
The '''Banana Cup''' comprises four courses, each of which is taken from the nitro cups of previous ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]'' games, mostly the [[Mushroom Cup]] and [[Flower Cup]], although occasionally [[Star Cup]] and [[Special Cup]] tracks are featured. The cup's symbol is a [[Banana|Banana Peel]], and the cup's tracks are slightly more difficult and/or longer when compared to those of the [[Shell Cup]]. Its length and difficulty is on par with the [[Flower Cup]]. The Banana Cup also returns in ''Mario Tennis Open'' for the [[Nintendo 3DS]]. It appears after the [[Flower Cup]] and before the [[Champions Cup]].

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*In ''Mario Kart 8'':
*In ''Mario Kart 8'', this is the only cup in the game with all courses taking place in the daytime, and is the only Banana Cup so far to have this trait. It is also one of two cups in the game to use the same character as Staff Ghosts in two tracks of the same cup (being [[Princess Peach|Peach]] in [[Dry Dry Desert (GCN)|Dry Dry Desert]] and [[Royal Raceway]]), the other being the [[Egg Cup]] (being [[Mario]] in [[Excitebike Arena]] and [[Mute City]]).

**It is one of two cups in the game to use the same character as Staff Ghosts in two tracks of the same cup (being [[Princess Peach|Peach]] in [[GCN Dry Dry Desert|Dry Dry Desert]] and [[N64 Royal Raceway|Royal Raceway]]), the other being the [[Egg Cup]] (being [[Mario]] in [[Excitebike Arena]] and [[Mute City]]).
**It is the only classic course cup to have tracks from both the [[Mushroom Cup]] (Dry Dry Desert) and the [[Special Cup]] ([[SNES Donut Plains 3|Donut Plains 3]] and [[3DS DK Jungle|DK Jungle]]).
