Its sister course, [[Rainbow Downhill]], starts off the same, but the segment after the teleporter is shaped very differently.

Rainbow Coaster is a course in Mario Kart Arcade GP and Mario Kart Arcade GP 2, akin to and inspired by the many incarnations of Rainbow Road. As such, the course takes place in outer space. The course features a teleporter near the middle of the stage, warping players to a new environment; a cloudy area with beanstalks in broad daylight, similar in vein to Template:Classic link. This portion is curved and give a very rollercoaster-like experience, much like the Mario Kart DS Rainbow Road. Its sister course, Rainbow Downhill, starts off the same, but the segment after the teleporter is shaped very differently.

In Round 3 and 4, the cloudy beanstalk environment in the second portion is changed into something completely different: in Mario Kart Arcade GP, the environment is instead underwater, featuring a variety of deep sea creatures; in Mario Kart Arcade GP 2, however, this environment is replaced by a sanctuary above the clouds in the night sky. The version of Rainbow Coaster used in the Challenge against Robo Mario makes use of the underwater environment in the second segment, regardless of which game.
