 '''Koopa Cape''' is the second race course of the [[Star Cup]] in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]''. The course takes place on an isle of sort, where racers begin the race near to a cliff. The isle in this course also contains a river cutting through a forest and an underwater tunnel for racers to dive into, with a Warp Pipe at both ends. This course is owned by [[Koopa Troopa]], as signs of him and the name of the course itself reveal.
-Koopa Cape returns in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'' as the first course of the [[Lightning Cup]] and in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', debuting in the [[Peach vs. Bowser Tour (May 2022)|May 2022 Peach vs. Bowser Tour]]. It also returns in ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' as the third course of the [[Cherry Cup]] in the [[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass|Booster Course Pass]]. It, alongside [[Wii Mushroom Gorge|Mushroom Gorge]], [[Wii Coconut Mall|Coconut Mall]], and [[Wii Maple Treeway|Maple Treeway]], have appeared in four games in a row (every game since their debuts) if one counts the two ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' titles as the same game.

 Koopa Cape returns in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'' starting in the [[Peach vs. Bowser Tour (May 2022)|May 2022 Peach vs. Bowser Tour]]. The track overall has a more mountainous appearance, with the cliff sides being taller and the color of the mountain being changed from gray to tan. The starting banner's design has been changed, now being a large, red metal sign with the modern ''Mario Kart'' logo and a [[Green Shell]] on top of it that bounces back and forth. The starting banner is also supported by two [[Warp Pipe]]s. Both the large green Koopa Shell in the background and the half-pipes from the original ''Mario Kart Wii'' version of the course have been re-added, whilst the [[Koopa Troopa]] head at the entrance to the cave has been removed. The cup sign has been removed due to the track appearing in different cups. The "Turn Left" sign has been replaced with a Sunshine Parts advertisement, while the "Turn Right" sign has been replaced with a Red Shell Strike Equipment advertisement. An additional half-pipe was implemented in the underwater section, allowing racers to jump out of the water. The water currents are noticeably weaker in this version of the track, likely to accommodate the controls of the game and the reverse version of the course - which adds [[hot-air balloon]]s. The Maw-Rays in the background of the underwater section have been removed, though there are now more plants in the background. The course uses its original music from ''Mario Kart Wii'', but the second variant of the theme for the brook section remains absent like in ''Mario Kart 7''.
-The course also appears as '''Koopa Cape R''' (reversed), '''Koopa Cape T''' (with ramps), and '''Koopa Cape R/T''' (reversed with ramps). The former two debuted alongside the normal variant in the [[Peach vs. Bowser Tour (May 2022)|May 2022 Peach vs. Bowser Tour]], while the latter debuted in the [[New Year's Tour (2023)|2023 New Year's Tour]]. In the R variant, racers use a [[Glide Ramp|glide ramp]] to get up to the river from the pipe, and there are two [[Cheep Cheep]]s jumping on the river. In the T variant, the two ramps near the first patch of grass are gone as well as the glide ramp; there is instead a glide ramp towards the end of the pipe section. In the R/T variant, racers skip the pipe section entirely, instead driving on [[Kanaami Road]] above the water until they glide up to the river.

-In the game files for ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', there is an intro to the underwater version of the course's music that is not present in the ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'' or ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'' version of the course. It is not heard anywhere in-game, not even in the [[Glider Challenge]] on Koopa Cape, which starts underwater but uses the normal intro.<ref>[https://tcrf.net/Mario_Kart_Tour#Unheard_Wii_Koopa_Cape_Underwater_Intro Mario Kart Tour § Unheard Wii Koopa Cape Underwater Intro].

-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.

 The brook section of the background music returns after having been absent from ''Mario Kart 7'' and ''Mario Kart Tour'', now featuring a fiddle countermelody and an intro compared to the ''Mario Kart Wii'' arrangement. The alternative music for the underwater section also features an intro, similar to ''Mario Kart Tour''.
-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 first course to feature an anti-gravity section that is entirely underwater. The Cheep Cheeps now swim below the tube and cannot 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).

 Koopa Cape is one of two courses in ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'' to not mark the beginning of an anti-gravity section with an [[Antigravity Panel]], the other being {{classic-link|3DS|Rainbow Road}}.
-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.

-Before its official reveal, screenshots of the ''Mario Kart Tour'' iteration of Koopa Cape were included among the many pictures used in an {{media 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]].
