'''Waluigi Stadium''' is the fourth and final race course of the [[Flower Cup]] in ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]''. It is [[Waluigi]]'s home course of the game and bears a striking resemblance to the dirt bike course [[Wario Stadium]] from ''[[Mario Kart 64]]''. Obstacles include [[Fire Chain]]s, [[Fire Bar]]s, and giant wooden [[Piranha Plant]]s. It shares its music with [[Wario Colosseum]].  

Waluigi Stadium reappears in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'' as the fourth and final course of the [[Banana Cup]], in ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' as the third course of the [[Boomerang Cup]] in the [[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass|Booster Course Pass]], and in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'' starting from the [[Mario vs. Luigi Tour (2023)|2023 Mario vs. Luigi Tour]].

After this part of the course is a turn that leads left and into another relatively straight section of the track. There are a pair of hills that racers can employ to do a trick in ''Mario Kart Wii''. The straight road bends in a U-turn to the right, with another set of item boxes. The road twists at this part, and racers will slow down if they get caught running over the muddy zone to the left of the path if they don't have a speed boost item. The twisty path leads to a great jump over the hilly section, which leads to the last item box and a fire ring. Dash panels found over the ramp provide racers to cross the gap and reach the other side of the track that leads directly to the finish line; however, if racers fall into the gap, they will fall to a lower part of the track and [[Lakitu]] has to rescue them.

Waluigi Stadium makes its classic course debut in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'' as the fourth and last course of the [[Banana Cup]] with some changes, such as the addition of [[Half-pipe (object)|half-pipe]]s at the sides of the course for racers to perform [[trick]]s. The positions of the [[Piranha Plant]] pipes have been reversed (left to right, right to left) while the number of fireballs for each Fire Bar were extended to four. The tiny hill near the end of the course has also been removed alongside the number of Dash Panels at the ramp reduced from six to four. Also, the facial chevron signs that rock back and forth were changed from purple chevrons with a black background to light green chevrons with a translucent background. The audience also appears to be bigger than the original version. Unlike in the original, the crowd does not moan when the player gets hit by an item or hazard, but will still cheer when the player does a trick off a ramp. The members of the audience have also changed, and no longer include Snifits, Toadsworth, or Donkey Kong Jr.

In ''Mario Kart Wii'', a tournament took place on this course. Players had to pass through a total of twenty-five gates as quickly as possible. It was the first tournament of April 2009, and it was later repeated as the first tournament of April 2011, the first tournament of July 2012, and the second tournament of September 2013.

Waluigi Stadium returns in ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' as part of Wave 4 of the [[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass|Booster Course Pass]]. It appears as the third course of the [[Boomerang Cup]]. It is the first course from ''Double Dash!!'' to appear in the Booster Course Pass. The course has received a major visual overhaul from its ''Mario Kart Wii'' appearance, now closely resembling [[Waluigi Stadium (Mario Kart Arcade GP 2)|Waluigi Stadium]] from ''Mario Kart Arcade GP 2''.  

The course is now set at late dusk, instead of being at sunset. The starting line has been redesigned to feature multiple multi-colored lights for the letters in the ''Mario Kart'' logo, and the frame of the starting banner is now a purple angular sign. The grandstands have been completely redesigned as well as the Jumbotron, which now includes a leaderboard, speakers, and a single Waluigi image. Diggers appear throughout the course on the dirt surrounding the road, which may be a reference to the [[Gold Mantis]], which is one of Waluigi's karts from ''[[Mario Kart DS]]''. A Waluigi Stadium sign replaces the Waluigi Kart sign of the original. The facial chevron signs that rock back and forth were removed and replaced with neon blue arrows. The [[Mecha Piranha Plant]]s now have a more metallic look, as well as having visible mud and rust on them. They have also changed positions yet again, with the first two now being directly across from each other and diagonally jutting out into the air, while the last one retains its placement from ''Mario Kart Wii''. They also no longer move their mouths. The [[Fire Bar]]s have been reduced to two and are moved closer to one another. After the last Mecha Piranha Plant, a new raised route has been added, accessible via tricking off the half-pipe. [[Tire]]s appear on the track as well. A new Dash Panel has been added to the left side of the course right before the final half-pipe. The ending section has changed noticeably, with a second new route in anti-gravity (this one having [[Spin Boost Pillar|Spin Boost Pillars]] and ending in a [[Glide Ramp]]) being added above the rest of the course, accessible via the last half-pipe, while the original route is no longer as smooth of an S-turn, with the offroad being more jagged. Additionally, the Dash Panels before the final jump have been removed. <ref>任天堂ホームページ (March 2, 2023). [https://youtu.be/k-Nq09NPqUQ GC ワルイージスタジアム]. ''YouTube''. Retrieved March 3, 2023.</ref> Like {{classic-link|GBA|Riverside Park}} but unlike {{classic-link|Wii|DK Summit}}, the minimap fills in the offroad on the course. The icon for this course depicts the large jumbotron in a different place compared to where it is in the actual course.

Waluigi Stadium returns in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'' starting from the [[Mario vs. Luigi Tour (2023)|2023 Mario vs. Luigi Tour]]. The course more closely resembles its original appearance compared to how it appeared in ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', with the time of day being reverted back to sunset opposed to late dusk. The first jump now has three Dash Panels instead of two, and the Dash Panels before the final jump return after being absent in ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe''. The Mecha Piranha Plants have been reduced from three to two, but the remaining ones more closely match their positions seen in ''Mario Kart: Double Dash!!''. The raised platforms accessible via the half-pipes in ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'' have been removed. The Dash Panel before the Final Half-pipe have been removed. Additionally, many red arrow signs have been added as well. As with all other ''Tour'' tracks with similar screens, the jumbotron no longer displays live footage of the race.

The course also appears as '''Waluigi Stadium R''' (reversed), '''Waluigi Stadium T''' (with ramps), and '''Waluigi Stadium R/T''' (reversed with ramps). In the R/T variant, the Mecha Piranha Plants are placed vertically instead of horizontally.

The course is a favorite of [[Poochy]], [[Wario|Wario (Hiker)]], [[Dry Bowser|Dry Bowser (Gold)]], [[Petey Piranha]], [[Petey Piranha|Petey Piranha (Gold)]], and the [[Mii|Petey Piranha]], [[Mii|Bowser]], [[Mii|Yellow]], [[Mii|Reindeer]], and [[Mii|Ludwig Mii Racing Suits]]. It is also a favorite of the Waluigi Mii Racing Suit if it reaches level 6.

The ''Mario Kart Tour'' rendition of GCN Waluigi Stadium is visible in an {{media link|MK8DX BCP Leak.jpg|unused banner}} present in ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe''{{'}}s files as of version 2.0.0, with the sunset setting intact. This instance predated any official announcement of GCN Waluigi Stadium being added to ''Mario Kart Tour''.
