'''Amsterdam Drift''' is a race course | '''Amsterdam Drift''' is a race course in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]''. It is named after and inspired by [[Amsterdam]], the {{wp|Netherlands}}. Like with a majority of the game's other [[New course|city courses]], this course has three routes: Amsterdam Drift, '''Amsterdam Drift 2''', and '''Amsterdam Drift 3'''. The first route debuted in the city's namesake tour, the [[Amsterdam Tour]], the second route debuted in the [[Metropolitan Tour]], and the third route debuted in the [[Peach vs. Bowser Tour (November–December 2022)|November–December 2022 Peach vs. Bowser Tour]]. The first route takes players through the {{wp|Zaanse Schans}} and the streets of central Amsterdam, the second route takes players into the {{wp|Canals of Amsterdam|canals of the city}}, and the third route takes racers through the {{wp|Keukenhof}} tulip fields and some parts of central Amsterdam. Amsterdam Drift is the only city course to have all three of its routes released in the same year. Additionally, the first route starts in the opposite direction compared to the other two. | ||

Houses and windmills resembling those found on the {{wp|Zaanse Schans}} appear in the background of the area. The course eventually leads to a [[Dash Panel]], making the racers jump onto a ferry. This is followed by another jump from the ferry onto the paved road again. The racers then go down the {{wp|Nieuwezijds Voorburgwal}} street, which leads right behind the Royal Palace, along with {{wp|Hotel Die Port van Cleve}} and the Former Amsterdam Main Post Office (currently a shopping mall known as {{wp|Magna Plaza}}). There, there is a [[Train (obstacle)|moving tram]] which drivers can run into for a [[Jump Boost]]. The road makes a gradual left, transitioning into the {{wp|Rokin}} street and going past Gebouw Industria, before leading to the finish line. In the T and R/T variants and the [[Do Jump Boosts]] bonus challenge of the course, the player can go [[underwater driving|underwater]] in some parts of the course. | |||

If going straight, racers can choose to use an air current to briefly jump out of the water onto a boat in the canal before driving back in.

Amsterdam Drift returns in ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' as part of Wave 4 of the [[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass|Booster Course Pass]], where it appears as the first course of the [[Fruit Cup]]. It has received significant visual upgrades compared to how it appeared in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]''. The {{wp|Canals of Amsterdam|canal}} section is much more saturated than before, and is now a vibrant blue hue when underwater. The boat above the canals now faces the opposite direction to accommodate for the route now being done backwards. | |||
While it is unknown what route the course will take, each variant is shown, however racers do begin facing the same direction that they face in the first route. Also, roads used for Amsterdam Drift 3 are driven both normally and in reverse, with the tulip field section being driven in the right direction, but the section with the trams being done backwards. Racers are seen driving along the first route the correct way, but the second route backwards. Due to Amsterdam Drift 3 being backwards compared to the first route in ''Mario Kart Tour'', {{file link|MK8D Amsterdam Unused Road.png|a road connecting the first and third routes}} (that is unused in ''Tour'') is accessed at some point in the race, making Amsterdam Drift the fourth city course to utilize roads that went unused in ''Mario Kart Tour''.<ref>任天堂ホームページ (March 2, 2023).

Amsterdam Drift is a race course in Mario Kart Tour. It is named after and inspired by Amsterdam, the Netherlands. Like with a majority of the game's other city courses, this course has three routes: Amsterdam Drift, Amsterdam Drift 2, and Amsterdam Drift 3. The first route debuted in the city's namesake tour, the Amsterdam Tour, the second route debuted in the Metropolitan Tour, and the third route debuted in the November–December 2022 Peach vs. Bowser Tour. The first route takes players through the Zaanse Schans and the streets of central Amsterdam, the second route takes players into the canals of the city, and the third route takes racers through the Keukenhof tulip fields and some parts of central Amsterdam. Amsterdam Drift is the only city course to have all three of its routes released in the same year. Additionally, the first route starts in the opposite direction compared to the other two.
Portions of this course are set underwater in the canals of Amsterdam, making this the only city course so far with mandatory underwater driving, and the third city course with underwater driving altogether, after Los Angeles Laps and Singapore Speedway.
The first route is a favorite of Luigi (Golf), Mario (Aviator), Rosalina (Volendam), Donkey Kong Jr. (SNES), and the Nabbit and Pastry Chef Mii Racing Suits. The second route is a favorite of Toadette (Explorer), Baby Mario (Koala), Penguin Mario, Penguin Toadette, Rosalina (Volendam), Daisy (Farmer), Rosalina (Chef), Petey Piranha, and the Gold Mii Racing Suit. The third route is a favorite of Peach (Vacation), Yoshi (Egg Hunt), Mario (Tuxedo), Luigi (Painter), Rosalina (Volendam), Toadette (Sailor), and the Toad, White, and Rocky Wrench Mii Racing Suits.
Amsterdam Drift appears as the first course of the Fruit Cup in the Booster Course Pass for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe.
Mario Kart Tour
Course layouts
Amsterdam Drift
In the standard layout, the racers start the course on Damrak street, in between the Royal Palace of Amsterdam and De Bijenkorf, while they head towards Amsterdam Centraal Station before making a right turn. After that, the racers make a left turn while they pass the Montelbaanstoren, followed by going underneath the NEMO Science Museum and through the IJtunnel. The racers then glide over a river acting as both the IJ in Amsterdam and the Zaan at the Zaanse Schans, in between the mills Het Jonge Schaap and De Zoeker while avoiding their sails. They then make their way to a dirt road with Monty Moles (Goombas in the T variant) and a shortcut ramp. Houses and windmills resembling those found on the Zaanse Schans appear in the background of the area. The course eventually leads to a Dash Panel, making the racers jump onto a ferry. This is followed by another jump from the ferry onto the paved road again. The racers then go down the Nieuwezijds Voorburgwal street, which leads right behind the Royal Palace, along with Hotel Die Port van Cleve and the Former Amsterdam Main Post Office (currently a shopping mall known as Magna Plaza). There, there is a moving tram which drivers can run into for a Jump Boost. The road makes a gradual left, transitioning into the Rokin street and going past Gebouw Industria, before leading to the finish line. In the T and R/T variants and the Do Jump Boosts bonus challenge of the course, the player can go underwater in some parts of the course.
The course also appears as Amsterdam Drift R (reverse), Amsterdam Drift T (with ramps), and Amsterdam Drift R/T (reverse and with ramps).
Amsterdam Drift 2
In the standard layout, the racers start the course on Damrak street, in between the Royal Palace of Amsterdam and De Bijenkorf, but unlike the first Amsterdam Drift, racers now head away from Amsterdam Centraal Station, where they then take a slight right turn before heading into the canals of the city. Racers take a sharp left turn in the canals and maneuver in between many warp pipes with currents coming out of them. A serpentine turn is taken before heading to a straightaway. Here, there is a fork in the road where players can either go straight ahead then take a 90 degree left turn, or immediately take a 90 degree left turn then take a right turn after. If going straight, racers can choose to use an air current to briefly jump out of the water onto a boat in the canal before driving back in. When both routes meet up again, they lead to a ramp that leads out of the canal again, and back to the surface outside the Amsterdam Centraal Station. One final left turn is taken before reaching the finishing line.
The course also appears as Amsterdam Drift 2R (reverse), Amsterdam Drift 2T (with ramps), and Amsterdam Drift 2R/T (reverse and with ramps).
The release of this layout marks the shortest period of time between the release of two different routes, debuting less than two months after the first.
Amsterdam Drift 3
This route begins in the same place as the other routes, on Damrak, only facing away from the Amsterdam Centraal station, like with Amsterdam Drift 2. Racers take a slight right before entering a canal. Instead of going left like they would on Amsterdam Drift 2, racers go straight ahead to continue through the canal before turning left and coming out in the Keukenhof tulip fields. Racers avoid Piranha Plants while serpentining through the field before driving through the Rijksmuseum. Racers take a sharp right in front of the Bloemenmarkt before taking an even sharper left to re-enter the streets of central Amsterdam. Racers drive past the National Monument, then come across a moving tram which can give a Jump Boost if driven into (like the first route for the city), before taking two last 90 degree left turns to the finish line.
The course also appears as Amsterdam Drift 3R (reverse), Amsterdam Drift 3T (with ramps), and Amsterdam Drift 3R/T (reverse and with ramps).
In the R variant, goats appear in the Keukenhof section in place of Piranha Plants, while in the T variant, Monty Moles appear instead. Amsterdam Drift 3 is the only city course route so far to debut in a Team Rally.
Appearances
For this course's tour appearances, see List of Amsterdam Drift tour appearances in Mario Kart Tour.
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
This section is referring to a subject in an upcoming or recently released DLC wave. When the DLC wave is released, or more information about this subject is found, this section may need major rewriting.
This notice should be removed after a month has passed since the DLC wave was first released.
Amsterdam Drift returns in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe as part of Wave 4 of the Booster Course Pass, where it appears as the first course of the Fruit Cup. It has received significant visual upgrades compared to how it appeared in Mario Kart Tour. The canal section is much more saturated than before, and is now a vibrant blue hue when underwater. The boat above the canals now faces the opposite direction to accommodate for the route now being done backwards.
While it is unknown what route the course will take, each variant is shown, however racers do begin facing the same direction that they face in the first route. Also, roads used for Amsterdam Drift 3 are driven both normally and in reverse, with the tulip field section being driven in the right direction, but the section with the trams being done backwards. Racers are seen driving along the first route the correct way, but the second route backwards. Due to Amsterdam Drift 3 being backwards compared to the first route in Mario Kart Tour, a road connecting the first and third routes (that is unused in Tour) is accessed at some point in the race, making Amsterdam Drift the fourth city course to utilize roads that went unused in Mario Kart Tour.[1]
Amsterdam Drift is one of three courses from Mario Kart Tour to appear in the fourth wave, alongside Template:Classic-link and Template:Classic-link. It is the only one that is not in the Boomerang Cup.
