Choco Mountain makes its classic course debut in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'' as the second course of the [[Leaf Cup]]. Not many changes were made, aside from the redone texture for the road and mountain, and the banister that protects the player in ''Mario Kart 64'' in 50cc and Time Trials was removed completely.

Not many changes were made, aside from the redone texture for the road and mountain, and the banister that protects the player in ''Mario Kart 64'' in 50cc and Time Trials was removed completely. The boulders' spawn rates were adjusted and made to cause player to spin instead of getting squashed. The pit also has more water. Most walls on the course are modified to be flatter, likely due to this game's lack of the crash mechanic. As in the Japanese version of ''Mario Kart 64'', the Nintendo billboard is blue instead of red. The Yoshi billboard is also replaced by a Yoshi Kart billboard. THe starting gird was altered to remove the player squares and replace the transparent squares with yellow ones at the finish line. The music was rearranged to the game's soundfont, alongside some minor alterations, though nothing else was changed about it. The course was available on Wi-Fi. | ||
The following sponsors appear, all in the form of signs: [[List of sponsors debuting in Mario Kart DS#Luigi GP|Luigi GP]], [[Nintendo]], and [[List of sponsors debuting in Mario Kart DS#Yoshi Kart|Yoshi Kart]]. | The following sponsors appear, all in the form of signs: [[List of sponsors debuting in Mario Kart DS#Luigi GP|Luigi GP]], [[Nintendo]], and [[List of sponsors debuting in Mario Kart DS#Yoshi Kart|Yoshi Kart]]. | ||

Choco Mountain reappears once more in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', where it makes its debut in the [[Exploration Tour (2020)|2020 Exploration Tour]]. The course has seen extensive graphical improvements.

The course has seen extensive graphical improvements. Its starting banner has been changed to a wooden sign with a blue, three-dimensional ''Mario Kart'' logo, and more signs were added to the track. There is now a scarce amount of foliage on the borders of the road. A pit and some dead trees have been added at the left of the first turn and some small ramps were added just before the face of the mountain. After entering through the mountain, the track now has a cavern section with [[Swoop]]s, crystals and off-road shortcuts. A [[Glide Ramp]] with a pit below and on the right has been added at the end of the cavern. A concrete wall and [[Fish Bone]] fossils were added in the part with the boulders. The banister that was originally present in ''Mario Kart 64'' in 50cc and Time Trials reappears in all difficulty levels, but only from the curve right after the boulders. The last turn now has an off-road part that the players can use as a shortcut. The player can now perform a [[Jump Boost]] by hitting the broken bridge. In addition, the white fog that covers most the track has been made less dense, making the surroundings slightly more visible. | ||
Like | Like [[SNES Donut Plains 1]], [[SNES Koopa Troopa Beach 2]], [[N64 Frappe Snowland]] and [[GCN Mushroom Bridge]], it retains its original music, rather than using the ''Mario Kart DS'' arrangement. | ||
In the T and R/T variants, the glide ramp is now gone, replaced with a series of regular ramps. | In the T and R/T variants, the glide ramp is now gone, replaced with a series of regular ramps. | ||

{{classic|N64|Choco Mountain}} is heavily patterned after its appearance in ''Mario Kart Tour'', though with updated graphics. The white fog that covers most of the track in the track's previous installments has been dramatically reduced, making most of the track visible. Extra details have been added to several off-road sections, such as a bird's nest on the mountain side and spectators such as [[Koopa Paratroopa]]s flying about and [[Shy Guy]]s sitting on the mountain side. The ramps before the cavern section have been removed, the glider at the end of the tunnel was made smaller and players can no longer trick off the broken bridge. Headlights also turn | {{classic|N64|Choco Mountain}} is heavily patterned after its appearance in ''Mario Kart Tour'', though with updated graphics.

Headlights also turn while in the cave section. The rocks were adjusted and have redone physics, with cracks being added on the ground to note where the rocks will fall. It is now possible to drive on the left wall near the bumps at the finish line and the line's gray checkers now have two hues. The track also receives a country-inspired musical arrangement with harmonica, fiddle, banjo, and electric guitar.<ref>{{cite|author=Nintendo of America|date=February 9, 2022|url=youtu.be/1uZDbDoDAq4|title=Mario Kart 8 Deluxe - Booster Course Pass DLC – Nintendo Switch|language=en-us|publisher=YouTube|accessdate=February 9, 2022}}</ref> | ||
As with all other courses from Wave 1, this course's icon and lighting were adjusted slightly in the 2.1.0 update. Prior to the aforementioned update, the wheels on the karts did not build up dirt despite the fact that Choco Mountain is a dirt-based track. | As with all other courses from Wave 1, this course's icon and lighting were adjusted slightly in the 2.1.0 update.
