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 Course''' is a special level found in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]''. The music heard in rainbow Courses is a sparkly remix of the ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'' Coin Heaven theme |

| 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.
| | A Rainbow Course can only be opened by finishing a level with the last two digits of the [[Time Limit]] both being the number of the [[world]] the player is on ([[World Mushroom]] being "7", [[World Flower]] "8", and [[World Star]] "9"), which is followed by the original ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' "Course Clear" theme playing, along with some [[fireworks]] going off and a rainbow appearing. Then, [[Mario]] can head to the beginning of the [[world]], where a Rainbow World course has opened up. At the beginning of every Rainbow World, Mario must enter a [[Cannon Pipe]] to be launched into a [[Coin Heaven]]-type area, which holds large amounts of [[coin]]s, coin [[Roulette Block]]s (including a larger one with a maximum number as 100 coins, instead of 50), [[10 Gold Coin]]s, and even a single [[100 Gold Coin]]. Some courses have a [[Red Coin Ring]] that will gave the player a [[Gold Flower]] if all [[Red Coin]]s are collected. However, all Rainbow Worlds are slightly different from each other. If Mario falls off the course, he will not lose a life, but it will close up and Mario must redo the method of unlocking the Rainbow Course in order to access it again. |

| 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.
| | ==Trivia== |
| | | *All of the Rainbow Courses will automatically unlock when a player receives a SpotPass message from the game, regardless of what the message is about. |
| 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.
