DS Cheep Cheep Beach
Template:Racecourse Cheep Cheep Beach is the third course of the Mushroom Cup in Mario Kart DS and the third course of the Shell Cup in Mario Kart 8. It is a tropical beach that resembles Cheep-Cheep Island from Mario Kart: Super Circuit.
Course layout
The course is very short; it starts out on a boardwalk and then it goes onto the sand. Players then turn under a rock, similar to that from Mario Kart: Double Dash!!'s Peach Beach. After being blasted from a booster, racers land on a beach with sidesteppers that cause to drivers to spin around if they make contact. After a turn racers encounter two Cheep Cheeps bouncing out of the water. A twisting jungle finishes off the course.
If racers run into dark blue water area, they will stop and get picked up by Lakitu and brought back to the course.
Missions
The missions 1-4 and 2-5 take place on this course.
In mission 1-4 the player starts in the entrance of the jungle part facing backwards and has to use the Star to hit 5 Cheep Cheeps. In mission 2-5 the player has to pick up 20 coins.
Official descriptions
- European website: "Offering all-year-round sunshine and a never-ending supply of fresh fish, Cheep Cheep Beach is a great place to relax after a race. But make sure to lay your towel well away from the track, otherwise you'll find unsightly tire marks spoiling your all-over tan."
Mario Kart 8
Cheep Cheep Beach returns in Mario Kart 8 as the third track of the Shell Cup. Much like in Cheep Cheep Lagoon from Mario Kart 7, the course now has a banner with the course name in it, while the starting banner has been redesigned to resemble a volleyball net. The course, like the other retro courses, has received an HD upgrade in visuals, and has a live-recorded remix of it's theme. The water tide no longer changes, anymore. Due to that, Cheep Cheeps now swim on the water instead of hopping on it. Furthermore, a few of them now occasionally jump over where the racers glide from the boardwalk and where racers jump off the ramp, serving them as obstacles. Piantas are now seen at the starting line. The start of the course where the boardwalk merges into the sand has been replaced with a gliding pad - not to mention that the course itself has high tide. Underneath the sea, coral reefs are now present. The last turn before the start and finish line now has a mud on the corner. On the last stretch of the dirt section before the finish line, two ramps have been added for racers to perform a stunt off of.
