| A '''Rainbow Course'''<ref>{{cite|author=von Esmarch, Nick|title=''New Super Mario Bros. 2'' PRIMA Official Game Guide|page=231–239|language=en-us|date=2012|publisher=Prima Games|isbn=978-0-307-89552-3}}</ref> is a type of bonus [[level]] in each [[world]] of ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]''. It occupies the starting point on the world's map. Each time a Rainbow Course opens, the player has one chance to play it after entering; it closes when their character exits by falling off. [[Gold Block|Flying Gold Blocks]] do not appear in Rainbow Courses, and inventory items cannot be used. | | A '''Rainbow World''' is a special course triggered by finishing a level with the last two digits of the [[Time Limit]] being "11". Then, the original ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' "Course Clear" theme will play, along with a firework going off and a rainbow appearing. Then, [[Mario]] can then head to the beginning of the [[world]], where a Rainbow World has opened up. At the beginning of every Rainbow World, Mario must enter a [[Cannon Pipe]] to be launched to a [[Coin Heaven]]-type area with, of course, lots of [[coin]]s, [[10 Gold Coin]]s, and even a single [[100 Gold Coin]]. However, all rainbow worlds are slightly different from each other. If Mario falls off the course, he will not die, but it will close up and Mario has to satisfy these conditions to reopen one. |

| The player can open a Rainbow Course by finishing a level when each of the last two digits of the [[Time Limit]] matches the number of the current world ([[World Mushroom (New Super Mario Bros. 2)|World Mushroom]] being counted as "7," [[World Flower (New Super Mario Bros. 2)|World Flower]] as "8," and [[World Star (New Super Mario Bros. 2)|World Star]] as "9"). The appearance of [[fireworks]] and a rainbow, as the theme "[[Course Clear]]" from ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' plays, indicates success. Additionally, all Rainbow Courses open when the player receives a SpotPass message from the game, regardless of what the message is about.

| At the beginning of every Rainbow Course, [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] must enter a [[Pipe Cannon]] to be launched into the titular rainbow-themed [[Coin Heaven]]. Rainbow Courses auto-scroll or take place on a moving [[lift]]. They contain large numbers of [[coin]]s, [[Roulette Coin Block]]s (including a larger one with a maximum result of 100 coins, instead of 50), [[10-Coin|10 Coin]]s, and one [[100-Coin|giant coin]] each (aside from those in the Roulette Coin Blocks). Some Rainbow Courses have a [[Red Ring]] that places a [[Gold Flower]] in the [[item storage]] if all [[Red Coin]]s are collected. At the end of the course, the player character is forced to fall off due to a large gap (in auto-scrolling courses) or an impassable wall that the lift recedes into. | |

| The music heard in Rainbow Courses is an arrangement of the ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'' Coin Heaven theme. It has different instrumentation and is a {{wp|semitone|half step}} higher than the key of the original theme.
