Rainbow Road (レインボーロード, Rainbow Road) is a stage in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS. It is based on the Rainbow Road course from Mario Kart 7.

Stage overview

Rainbow Road consists of a flat rainbow platform that travels around the track and landing in several areas. Some of those destinations include the rings of Saturn, a white polka-dotted mushroom trampoline, the finish line, and a moon. It is a cruise-style stage similar to Port Town Aero Dive, Delfino Plaza, Mute City, and Skyloft. Much like in Mario Circuit, Shy Guys will drive around the course and serve as damage-dealing obstacles. Like in Mute City, touching the track while the moving platform is in motion deals upwards knockback.

Ω form

The stage only consists of a single platform which does not follow the track, instead remaining still above the split-up roads following the tube. The omega form depicts these roads as curved; in both the stage and the racetrack, the roads are straight.

Origin

Rainbow Road as it appears in Mario Kart 7.

Rainbow Road first appeared in Super Mario Kart as the final course of the Special Cup, and has appeared in every main Mario Kart game since. This Rainbow Road is based on the Mario Kart 7 version.

Shy Guys debuted in Mario Kart DS as the only drivers recipient players of DS Download Play could play as, but made their proper debut as part of the game's roster in Mario Kart 7. In this stage, Shy Guys drive in their Standard Kart.

Trivia

  • The track in the stage is slightly altered from its original appearance in Mario Kart 7.
    • All of the speed/gliding ramps are missing. Despite this, Shy Guys can still be seen with their gliders.
    • The mushroom-based platforms on the course no longer bounce racers off them.
    • The area right before the second section sign is no longer bumpy on the sides.
    • Saturn's ring doesn't have breaks in it on the sides.
    • The road right before the moon no longer bounces.
  • The stage's starting line is extended at the beginning of the stage, in spite of the fact that it can appear at its normal length when the stage is stopped by the starting line. It is to make way for the touring platform.
  • Rainbow Road and Melee's Mushroom Kingdom are the only two Mario stages not to appear in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
