The course is strewn with obstacles such as ninja [[Shy Guy]]s and [[Ceiling Needle]]s. On the front of the manor are the {{wp|kanji}} 道忍 ("way of the ninja"). [[Wario]]-related iconography can be seen throughout Ninja Hideaway, such as depictions of his mustache and nose on the front of one of the buildings, as well as [[garlic]] motifs seen on windows, banners, and fences, referencing Wario's love for garlic. | ||
Ninja Hideaway reappears as a [[classic course]] in the ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass|Booster Course Pass]]'' DLC for ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', as the fourth and last course of the [[Lucky Cat Cup]]. Its theme was arranged for the Booster Course Pass end credits. | |||

A right turn appears at a [[Chain Chomp]] motif, followed by a wooden deck with two left turns. At the second left turn, there is a wooden staircase leading up to an upper level. If this route is not taken, the player then moves into multiple rooms inside the manor with a few shoji doors and [[Ceiling Needle]]s, the last of which serves as a platform on the upper route and can lead to another upper area filled with coins. After another left turn, the player encounters a few ninja [[Shy Guy]]s before taking a [[Glide Ramp|glide ramp]] past Shy Guys on kites and air-blowing bamboo stalks to a pagoda - this applies to the upper route as well. The pagoda's upper path features a few floorboards the player can traverse, while the lower path features a sewer system with running water. Both paths curve left and lead to a side roof with a grated path above, along with a few upwards wind currents produced by pinwheels. The course then makes an S-curve to the finish line, along with a glide ramp on the left that the player can use to access the upper floor of the manor. | ||
The course also appears as '''Ninja Hideaway R''' (reversed), '''Ninja Hideaway T''' (with ramps) and '''Ninja Hideaway R/T''' (reversed with ramps). The former two debuted alongside the normal variant in the [[Ninja Tour (2021)|2021 Ninja Tour]], while the latter debuted in the [[Mario vs. Peach Tour]]. In the T and R/T variants, all Ceiling Needles and glide ramps on the course are removed. In the T variant, the staircase at the beginning is blocked off, and racers use a glide ramp just before the S-surve. | |||

It is the fourth and final course of the [[Lucky Cat Cup]], and as such was added in the first wave of the DLC. The track's design is mostly identical to its appearance in ''Mario Kart Tour'', albeit upscaled and with updated visuals. The pond nestled before the entrance into the manor can now be tricked off of and a light near it was moved. The trickable slanted wooden surface that appeared in ''Mario Kart Tour'' right before the Ceiling Needle rooms has been removed. The ridges in the rooftop section can now all be tricked off of, even if they do not drop off to lower portions of the track. The ninja Shy Guys normally transform into [[Banana]]s, but depending on the item settings in play, they can transform into [[Green Shell]]s, [[Mushroom]]s, or no items at all. The [[Finish line (object)|finish line]] gate can no longer be spun around, like it does in ''Mario Kart Tour''; gliding drivers will fly over it, and items and drivers colliding with it will not make it spin.<ref>Daniel MK Moments (March 19, 2023). [https://youtu.be/gDxRWltGLKs Is It Possible To Spin The Starting Line Banner Like In MK Tour ?] ''YouTube''. Retrieved March 19, 2023.</ref> In Time Trials, the player starts slightly off-centered, which only occurs on this course. | ||
Similar to [[Dragon Driftway]], the course has a shamisen and shakuhachi added to its intro theme. The music has also been updated, with significantly less emphasis on the electric guitar compared to its original arrangement. | |||

Ninja Hideaway is one of three courses to originate from ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'' to appear in the first wave of the DLC, alongside {{classic-link|Tour|Paris Promenade}} and {{classic-link|Tour|Tokyo Blur}} making it the only course to not be based on a real-world city. It was the only course in the Booster Course Pass first appearing in ''Mario Kart Tour'' to not be based on a real-world city until Wave 3, with the introduction of [[Merry Mountain]]. | |||
Even though the track appeared first in ''Mario Kart Tour'', and the [[Nintendo eShop|eShop]] page classifies it as a "Tour" track, the game does not assign it a "Tour" prefix, just like [[Merry Mountain]] and [[Piranha Plant Cove]].<ref>{{file link|MK8Dv2-0-0 cup select Lucky Cat.jpg|Screenshot}}</ref><ref>avimidi the needy (March 17, 2022). [https://youtu.be/IFPinY8GdeA?t=52 Mario Kart 8 Deluxe: The 2.0.0 Update]. ''YouTube''. Retrieved March 17, 2022.</ref> Because of this, it was the only [[classic course|classic race course]] in the series to lack a prefix at the time of its release (not including the Extra courses in ''[[Mario Kart: Super Circuit]]''), and was one of three classic courses to lack the prefix in general, alongside [[Block Fort]] and [[Pipe Plaza]], which appeared as battle courses in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]''. Most official promotional material does assign the course with the prefix<ref>https://youtu.be/0PpEiH23bMs?t=117</ref> with the exception of the Nintendo UK Booster Course Pass site<ref>[https://www.nintendo.co.uk/Games/Nintendo-Switch-games/Mario-Kart-8-Deluxe-1173281.html#Booster_Course_Pass]</ref> and the American site starting with the full announcement of Wave 3.<ref>[https://mariokart8.nintendo.com/booster-course-pass/]</ref> | |||
As with all other courses from Wave 1, this course's icon was updated in the 2.1.0 update. Unlike the other courses, however, this course's icon was darkened, as opposed to being brightened. | |||

- “Last but not least, Ninja Hideaway. Look, look! It's like you're riding on the roof! Woo-hoo! You gotta have some sweet ninja skills to get first on this one.”
- —Jordan, Play Nintendo[1]
Ninja Hideaway is a race course from Mario Kart Tour that was introduced in the 2021 Ninja Tour as its featured course. The course takes place at a Japanese dojo called Ninja Manor[2][3] and features two routes that drivers can alternate between: one main, ground-level route and one elevated route usually accessible through regular ramps or Glide Ramps. The course is strewn with obstacles such as ninja Shy Guys and Ceiling Needles. On the front of the manor are the kanji 道忍 ("way of the ninja"). Wario-related iconography can be seen throughout Ninja Hideaway, such as depictions of his mustache and nose on the front of one of the buildings, as well as garlic motifs seen on windows, banners, and fences, referencing Wario's love for garlic.
Ninja Hideaway reappears as a classic course in the Booster Course Pass DLC for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, as the fourth and last course of the Lucky Cat Cup. Its theme was arranged for the Booster Course Pass end credits.

Course layout[edit]

In the standard layout, the course begins atop part of the manor rooftop before moving onto an arched bridge. A right turn appears at a Chain Chomp motif, followed by a wooden deck with two left turns. At the second left turn, there is a wooden staircase leading up to an upper level. If this route is not taken, the player then moves into multiple rooms inside the manor with a few shoji doors and Ceiling Needles, the last of which serves as a platform on the upper route and can lead to another upper area filled with coins. After another left turn, the player encounters a few ninja Shy Guys before taking a glide ramp past Shy Guys on kites and air-blowing bamboo stalks to a pagoda - this applies to the upper route as well. The pagoda's upper path features a few floorboards the player can traverse, while the lower path features a sewer system with running water. Both paths curve left and lead to a side roof with a grated path above, along with a few upwards wind currents produced by pinwheels. The course then makes an S-curve to the finish line, along with a glide ramp on the left that the player can use to access the upper floor of the manor.
The course also appears as Ninja Hideaway R (reversed), Ninja Hideaway T (with ramps) and Ninja Hideaway R/T (reversed with ramps). The former two debuted alongside the normal variant in the 2021 Ninja Tour, while the latter debuted in the Mario vs. Peach Tour. In the T and R/T variants, all Ceiling Needles and glide ramps on the course are removed. In the T variant, the staircase at the beginning is blocked off, and racers use a glide ramp just before the S-surve.

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe[edit]
Ninja Hideaway makes its console debut in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe via the Booster Course Pass. It is the fourth and final course of the Lucky Cat Cup, and as such was added in the first wave of the DLC. The track's design is mostly identical to its appearance in Mario Kart Tour, albeit upscaled and with updated visuals. The pond nestled before the entrance into the manor can now be tricked off of and a light near it was moved. The trickable slanted wooden surface that appeared in Mario Kart Tour right before the Ceiling Needle rooms has been removed. The ridges in the rooftop section can now all be tricked off of, even if they do not drop off to lower portions of the track. The ninja Shy Guys normally transform into Bananas, but depending on the item settings in play, they can transform into Green Shells, Mushrooms, or no items at all. The finish line gate can no longer be spun around, like it does in Mario Kart Tour; gliding drivers will fly over it, and items and drivers colliding with it will not make it spin.[4] In Time Trials, the player starts slightly off-centered, which only occurs on this course.
Similar to Dragon Driftway, the course has a shamisen and shakuhachi added to its intro theme. The music has also been updated, with significantly less emphasis on the electric guitar compared to its original arrangement.
If the player lands on the sign immediately after the final moving spiked platform in 200cc, they will be unable to move.[5]
Ninja Hideaway is one of three courses to originate from Mario Kart Tour to appear in the first wave of the DLC, alongside Tour Paris Promenade and Tour Tokyo Blur making it the only course to not be based on a real-world city. It was the only course in the Booster Course Pass first appearing in Mario Kart Tour to not be based on a real-world city until Wave 3, with the introduction of Merry Mountain.
Even though the track appeared first in Mario Kart Tour, and the eShop page classifies it as a "Tour" track, the game does not assign it a "Tour" prefix, just like Merry Mountain and Piranha Plant Cove.[6][7] Because of this, it was the only classic race course in the series to lack a prefix at the time of its release (not including the Extra courses in Mario Kart: Super Circuit), and was one of three classic courses to lack the prefix in general, alongside Block Fort and Pipe Plaza, which appeared as battle courses in Mario Kart DS. Most official promotional material does assign the course with the prefix[8] with the exception of the Nintendo UK Booster Course Pass site[9] and the American site starting with the full announcement of Wave 3.[10]
As with all other courses from Wave 1, this course's icon was updated in the 2.1.0 update. Unlike the other courses, however, this course's icon was darkened, as opposed to being brightened.
