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]] | The course is seemingly located on an island called Shell Island according to advertising signs.

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]] 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. | The river section takes place in a forest with grass and trees on both sides of the track.

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. | 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]]''.

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).

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. | With Koopa Cape's inclusion, every Wii retro course in ''Mario Kart 7'' appears in ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe''.

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]]. | 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.
