They are largely associated with farm-based courses in the ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]'' series, in which they typically act as obstacles.

[[File:Moo Moo Farm MK64.png|thumb|''Mario Kart 64'']]

Cows can be seen in the background of the ''Mario Kart 64'' course named [[N64 Moo Moo Farm|Moo Moo Farm]].

Although cows themselves do not appear in ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'', [[Mushroom City]] has a truck advertising the Moo Moo Farm course with the image of a cow.

Cows once again appear in the background of the [[Classic course|Retro Course]] called {{classic link|N64|Moo Moo Farm}}. It is the first game to give them the blue collars with hanging golden bells.

[[File:MushroomCow.png|140px|thumb|A Moo Moo as seen in ''Mario Kart Wii'']]

In ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'', cows serve as obstacles in the course [[Wii Moo Moo Meadows|Moo Moo Meadows]]. When hit, they cause the player to spin out. While the ones seen up close use full models, some in the distant background reuse flat textures from ''Mario Kart DS''. A truck in the [[Moonview Highway]] course also has a picture of a cow printed on it with the text "[[List of sponsors debuting in Mario Kart Wii#Moo Moo Dairy|Moo Moo Dairy]]".

Two cows make a small appearance in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'' on a sign in the {{classic link|Wii|Coconut Mall}} course, which reads "Moo Moo Dairy".

Moo Moos return in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' with the return of the Moo Moo Meadows track, with some Moo Moos now having other colors, such as solid black or brown. Also, in [[Toad Harbor]] and the game's rendition of [[N64 Toad's Turnpike|Toad's Turnpike]], there are advertising trucks and signs with Moo Moos on them. There is also a sponsor known as [[List of sponsors debuting in Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe#Moo Moo Meadows Milk|Moo Moo Meadows Milk]]. In this game, Moo Moos appear in four different colors; white with blue spots, white with brown spots, black, or brown. The Mii Racing Suit based on a Moo Moo appears in the ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass]]''.

Although Moo Moos themselves do not appear in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', the Moo Moo Meadows Milk sponsor returns in several courses in the game, and the [[Mii|Moo Moo Mii Racing Suit]] and [[Moo Moo Offroader]] are both based on them and were introduced in the [[Animal Tour]].

Moo Moos make four background appearances in the [[Mario Party (series)|''Mario Party'' series]]. They appear in the background of [[Western Land]] in ''[[Mario Party 2]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Party Jamboree]]'' and [[Fowl Play]] in ''[[Mario Party 3]]'', and in ''[[Mario Party: Island Tour]]'', they appear on [[Perilous Palace Path]].

===''Mario Pinball Land''===

In ''[[Mario Pinball Land]]'', there is a rare chance for a Moo Moo to pop out of a hole by hitting a [[Monty Mole]]. If [[Mario]] hits the Moo Moo before it disappears, he gains 100,000 [[point]]s.

Cows reappear in ''[[Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games (Wii)|Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games]]'' on Moo Moo Meadows as obstacles in the [[Dream Equestrian]] event.

===''Yoshi'' franchise===

Although Moo Moos themselves do not appear in ''[[Yoshi's Woolly World]]'' and ''[[Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World]]'', Moo Moo Yoshi is available as an unlockable Yoshi [[List of Yoshi designs in Yoshi's Woolly World|pattern]] which resembles a Moo Moo.

In ''[[Yoshi's Crafted World]]'', the Moo Moo Meadows Milk sponsor from ''Mario Kart 8'' makes various cameo appearances on the cartons and signs in the background of the flip side of [[Rail-Yard Run]] and [[Go-Go Yoshi]]. As first seen on the front side of Rail-Yard Run, there are also five cardboard Moo Moo [[List of crafts in Yoshi's Crafted World|craft]]s, which serve as [[Blockafeller|Coal Blockafeller]]'s first souvenir request. There is additionally a Moo Moo [[List of costumes in Yoshi's Crafted World|costume]] for Yoshi to wear.

====''Nintendo Badge Arcade''====

Cows<ref name=badge/> appear as badges in ''[[Nintendo Badge Arcade]]'' that the player may collect and decorate their Nintendo 3DS HOME Menu with. They are a part of the ''Mario Kart 8'' set of badges.

====''Minecraft''====

In the Super Mario Mash-up in ''[[Minecraft]]'', the traditional [[minecraftwiki:Cow|Cow]]'s design is replaced with the Moo Moo design found in the ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' titles. Red and green Moo Moos with mushrooms on their back replace Mooshrooms.
