'''Koopa Cape''' is the second race course of the [[Star Cup]] in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]''. The course takes place on an isle of sort, where racers begin the race near to a cliff. The isle in this course also contains a river cutting through a forest and an underwater tunnel for racers to dive into, with a Warp Pipe at both ends. This course is owned by [[Koopa Troopa]], as signs of him and the name of the course itself reveal.

Koopa Cape reappears in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'' as the first course of the [[Lightning Cup]], and in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', debuting in the [[Peach vs. Bowser Tour (May 2022)|May 2022 Peach vs. Bowser Tour]]. It also returns in ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' as the third course of the [[Cherry Cup]] in the ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass|Booster Course Pass]]''. It, alongside [[Wii Mushroom Gorge|Mushroom Gorge]], [[Wii Coconut Mall|Coconut Mall]], and [[Wii Maple Treeway|Maple Treeway]], have appeared in four games in a row (every game since their debuts) if one counts the two ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' titles as the same game.

==''Mario Kart Wii''==
[[File:MKW Rocket Start.png|thumb|The cliff area at the start of the track]]
The course is seemingly located on an island called Shell Island according to advertising signs. It begins with a huge cliff on the left side and endless water on the right side. Racers first make a slight right turn before going off a ramp with two [[Dash Panel|dash panels]] as well as the first set of [[Item Box]]es. Racers then make make a gradual left turn where the right half of the road has been replaced with [[Kanaami Road]]. As this happens, the track goes under part of the cliff and there is a picture of Koopa Troopa above the track; the Koopa head will be replaced by a random [[Mii]]'s head if there is a Mii in the race, and the body is also changed to be a Mii outfit for Mii Outfit A. Towards the end of this turn there is a simple ramp on the left side that allows racers to jump over a gap. Racers then turn right while avoiding three [[Goomba]]s. Afterwards there is another ramp, this time in the middle of the road, followed by a U-turn. On the outside of the U-turn is more Kanaami Road and a [[Half-pipe (object)|half-pipe]] with a set of Item Boxes on top. Racers then go off another dash panel ramp and enter a river section where a country-styled version of the course's music begins playing.

The river section takes place in a forest with grass and trees on both sides of the track. [[Koopa Troopa]] and [[Koopa Paratroopa]] billboards can be seen along turns in this section of the course, holding a flag and using ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' artwork, respectively. The track itself is initially asphalt but has a wide river cutting through the middle of it that racers follow. If racers attempt to drive upstream, they are soon thwarted by a tall fence. Along the river, individual Item Boxes also float downstream. There are several paths throughout this section. When racers first land on the river, they can either go off a simple ramp on the left side, follow the river itself as it weaves down the middle, or drive to the right into a cyan Koopa shell tunnel, where there is a pair of Item Boxes. The three options then converge as the track turns left, with grass on the inside of the turn and the last stretch of asphalt road on the outside of the turn. The river then widens, becoming the only track for racers to drive on, and racers quickly encounter a rocky arch between the middle of the river and the right side. Racers can either go under the arch or to the left of it; next to the arch on the left is a simple ramp with another pair of Item Boxes. The river then turns right around a large red Koopa shell that merely acts as an obstacle. After one more left turn, the river greatly narrows and becomes a waterfall; this is the same waterfall that is seen to the right at the beginning of the course, and it sends racers off the cliff into a very large [[Warp Pipe|warp pipe]]. As this happens, a classic warp pipe sound effect is played and a more ambient version of the course's music starts playing after.

All of the rushing water from the river flows down the pipe and the Item Boxes vanish, but racers are soon caught by a bit of Kanaami Road and are led into a transparent underwater tunnel that is connected to the pipe. Outside of the tunnel, some aquatic creatures such as [[Maw-Ray|Unagi]] and [[Big Cheep Cheep]]s can be seen. Inside the tunnel, racers are immediately faced with the first of several [[Koopa Zapper]]s followed by a left turn. Racers then pass through a huge green Koopa shell that is resting on top of another warp pipe. A narrow water current flows from the middle of this shell into the next portion of the tunnel as racers soon encounter another Koopa Zapper. A very slight left turn and then a right U-turn follow, with the water current continuing to assist racers. There is then a brief straightaway where they must avoid two back-to-back Koopa Zappers. As this happens, they enter another green Koopa shell where the water current is drained. After going off a simple ramp inside the shell, racers enter the last portion of the tunnel; this portion is much shorter, the bottom of the tunnel is completely flat, and it starts to curve upwards out of the water. Racers first encounter another set of Item Boxes before using three dash panels and going off a ramp at the tunnel's exit. As this happens another classic warp pipe sound is played and the course's music returns to its default tropical sounding version.

After exiting the tunnel, racers reach a very wide right turn. However, the inner half of the turn is taken over by a huge waterfall; it flows perpendicular to the track, similar to that of [[DS Yoshi Falls]], but with a much more aggressive current. Outside the turn is a bit more Kanaami Road and a second half-pipe with one last set of Item Boxes on top. After this is a slight left turn where racers reach the finish line.

===Shortcuts===
The first four notable shortcuts each involve cutting off a turn by using a [[Dash Mushroom|Mushroom]] to drive through the grass; the first can be found at the right turn with the three Goombas. However, if the first Goomba is on the right side of the track, the player can instead hit it with a shell and use the resulting ground Mushroom to take the shortcut.

The second can be found at the following U-turn, where the player is able to skip the dash panel ramp. However, this typically cannot be done without either slowing down or hitting a wall to realign.

The third can be found where the river turns left before the rocky arch. If performed correctly, this one can be done by releasing a [[Mini-Turbo|mini turbo]] and hopping instead of using a Mushroom. Also, the player can use a single [[Golden Dash Mushroom|Golden Mushroom]] to complete both the previous two shortcuts and this one in one go, saving a lot of time in total.

The fourth can be found at the rocky arch, where the player can go under the arch and drive to the right of the red Koopa shell.

The other notable shortcut on this track is at the right turn at the end. While the waterfall current is strong enough to typically prevent racers from crossing, using a speed item can allow the player to make it through on the inside of the turn.

===Tournaments===
[[File:TournamentAugust2.png|200px|thumb|The August 2008 Tournament 2]]
[[List of Mario Kart Wii tournaments#August 2008 Tournament 2|August 2008's second tournament]] required players to pass through 25 gates on Koopa Cape. The tournament was later repeated as the second tournament of August 2010, the second tournament of January 2012, and the first tournament of April 2013.

==''Mario Kart 7''==
[[File:KoopaCapeMK7.png|thumb|left|{{classic|Wii|Koopa Cape}} in ''Mario Kart 7'']]
Koopa Cape makes its classic course debut in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'' as the first course of the [[Lightning Cup]]. Most of the course remains unchanged, though the course itself was significantly shortened. However, there has been an added wall on the right at the starting line. The ramp into the brook has become a [[Glide Ramp]]. The most significant change is that the underwater glass tunnel has had its top removed and the player can now [[Underwater driving|drive underwater]] in it. [[Cheep Cheep]]s now serve as obstacles in this area, replacing the Koopa Zappers. The "Turn Left" sign does not have a flag in the Koopa's hand, as it uses its ''New Super Mario Bros.'' artwork instead. The sign at the beginning of the track now says Lightning Cup instead of Star Cup, due to the course being in the Lightning Cup, and the large Koopa Shell in the background has also been removed. The brook section now uses the first variant of the course's theme, as the second variant has been removed.

When playing either locally or online, the Cheep Cheeps and the Unagi in the tunnel are absent.

===Glitches===
*If the player drives up to the top of one the walls at the start of the underwater pipe at a turn, then hops at the very moment they reach the top, they spring high enough into the air to jump out of the water.
*A difficult glitch shortcut can be performed at the end of the rushing water section in order to skip the pipe entirely. By driving towards the entrance of the pipe, drifting left and using a Mushroom early, it is possible to clip through the fence to the left and land by the finish line. The player must then go backwards to around the beginning of the waterfall to hit the last key checkpoint of the course, and therefore make the lap count. If done fast enough, this glitch saves approximately three seconds.<ref name=Glitch>new MOMIジ (June 16, 2020). [https://youtu.be/h1rnjiASlEA?t=203 【マリオカート7】全バグショートカット集]. ''YouTube''. Retrieved January 30, 2021.</ref>
*A respawn shortcut can be performed near the beginning of the course by using a Mushroom to gain air time off of the edge of the fence on the right, after the first Dash Panel. If the player gets enough distance, they will activate the out-of-bounds plain for the next key checkpoint and respawn before the Glide Ramp, saving about two seconds.<ref name=Glitch/>

==''Mario Kart Tour''==
[[File:MKT Wii Koopa Cape Starting Line.jpg|thumb|Koopa Cape in ''Mario Kart Tour'']]
Koopa Cape returns in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'' starting in the [[Peach vs. Bowser Tour (May 2022)|May 2022 Peach vs. Bowser Tour]]. The track overall has a more mountainous appearance, with the cliff sides being taller and the color of the mountain being changed from gray to tan. The starting banner's design has been changed, now being a large, red metal sign with the modern ''Mario Kart'' logo and a [[Green Shell]] on top of it that bounces back and forth. The starting banner is also supported by two [[Warp Pipe]]s. Both the large green Koopa Shell in the background and the half-pipes from the original ''Mario Kart Wii'' version of the course have been re-added, whilst the [[Koopa Troopa]] head at the entrance to the cave has been removed. The cup sign has been removed due to the track appearing in different cups. The "Turn Left" sign has been replaced with a Sunshine Parts advertisement, while the "Turn Right" sign has been replaced with a Red Shell Strike Equipment advertisement. An additional half-pipe was implemented in the underwater section, allowing racers to jump out of the water. The water currents are noticeably weaker in this version of the track, likely to accommodate the controls of the game and the reverse version of the course - which adds [[hot-air balloon]]s. The Maw-Rays in the background of the underwater section have been removed, though there are now more plants in the background. The course uses its original music from ''Mario Kart Wii'', but the second variant of the theme for the brook section remains absent like in ''Mario Kart 7''.

The course also appears as '''Koopa Cape R''' (reversed), '''Koopa Cape T''' (with ramps), and '''Koopa Cape R/T''' (reversed with ramps). The first two debuted alongside the normal variant in the [[Peach vs. Bowser Tour (May 2022)|May 2022 Peach vs. Bowser Tour]], while Koopa Cape R/T debuted in the [[New Year's Tour (2023)|2023 New Year's Tour]]. In the R variant, racers use a [[Glide Ramp|glide ramp]] to get up to the river from the pipe, and there are two [[Cheep Cheep]]s jumping on the river. In the T variant, the two ramps near the first patch of grass are gone as well as the glide ramp; there is instead a glide ramp towards the end of the pipe section. In the R/T variant, racers skip the pipe section entirely, instead driving on [[Kanaami Road]] above the water until they glide up to the river.

In the files of ''Mario Kart Tour'', there is an intro to the underwater version of the course's music that is not present in the ''Mario Kart Wii'' or ''Mario Kart 7'' version of the course. It is not heard anywhere in-game, not even in the [[Glider Challenge]] on Koopa Cape, which starts underwater but uses the normal intro.<ref>{{cite|title={{iw|tcrf|Mario Kart Tour#Unheard Wii Koopa Cape Underwater Intro|Mario Kart Tour § Unheard Wii Koopa Cape Underwater Intro}}|publisher=The Cutting Room Floor|accessdate=July 15, 2022}}</ref>

==''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe''==
[[File:MK8-Course-Wii KoopaCape.jpg|thumb|The course in ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'']]
Koopa Cape returns in ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' as part of Wave 5 of the ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass|Booster Course Pass]]''. It appears as the third course of the [[Cherry Cup]]. It is based on its ''Mario Kart Tour'' appearance, only with significant visual enhancements. [[Toad (species)|Toads]], [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshis]], [[Shy Guy]]s, and [[Koopa Paratroopa]]s have been added as spectators as well as the Toads with scuba diving gear in the underwater section. The buried Red Shell now has a more metallic look. The Maw-Ray returns in this version after being removed from ''Mario Kart Tour'', now considerably smaller. The [[manta]] that appears in [[Dolphin Shoals]] can be seen swimming near the U-turn in the underwater section.

The brook section of the background music returns after having been absent from ''Mario Kart 7'' and ''Mario Kart Tour'', now featuring a fiddle countermelody and an intro compared to the ''Mario Kart Wii'' arrangement. The alternative music for the underwater section also features an intro, similar to ''Mario Kart Tour''. 

The course has been downscaled in size compared to its past appearances. The jump into the brook section is now a regular ramp, rather than a Dash Panel or Glide Ramp (like in Koopa Cape T). The ramp to the left of the rock arch has been removed. A Dash Panel has been added before the waterfall drop. The underwater section has been converted into an anti-gravity section, complete with [[Spin Boost Pillar]]s, making it the only course to feature an anti-gravity section that is entirely underwater. The Cheep Cheeps now swim below the tube and can no longer directly interact with racers. The additional half-pipe underwater now contains [[Item Box]]es as well as coins, and it is now more difficult to jump out of the water.<ref>任天堂ホームページ (July 6, 2023). [https://youtu.be/VD4jNqQZTTQ Wii ノコノコみさき]. ''YouTube''. Retrieved July 9, 2023.</ref>

Koopa Cape is one of two courses in ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'' to not mark the beginning of an anti-gravity section with an [[Antigravity Panel]] or [[Half-pipe (object)|half-pipe]], the other being {{classic link|3DS|Rainbow Road}}.

With Koopa Cape's inclusion, every Wii retro course in ''Mario Kart 7'' appears in ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe''. It is also one of two courses from ''Mario Kart Wii'' to appear in Wave 5, alongside {{classic link|Wii|Moonview Highway}}. Excluding ''[[Mario Kart 8]]''{{'}}s [[Rainbow Road (Mario Kart 8)|Rainbow Road]] theme, which is used in all trailers for the ''Booster Course Pass'', {{classic|Wii|Koopa Cape}} was the only course whose music was used for the second trailer for Wave 5.

Before its official reveal, screenshots of the ''Mario Kart Tour'' iteration of Koopa Cape were included among the many pictures used in an {{file link|MK8DX BCP Leak.jpg|alternative banner design}} for the ''Booster Course Pass'', located within internal data present in version 2.0.0 of the game. Internally, the course is referred to as "Cnsw_52", implying it may have originally been intended to be the second course of the [[Feather Cup]].

Koopa Cape is one of two courses originating from ''Mario Kart Wii'' to appear in Wave 5, alongside {{Classic-link|Wii|Moonview Highway}}.
