Mario Kart DS: Rainbow Road

One of my favorites from this game, the music from Rainbow Road in Mario Kart DS.
Yeah, it's only a minute long. My extended edit ended up sounding choppy, so I let it be.

[@NewCanadianTurtle]

Most people grew up with MK64 as their favourite title in the series. I personally didn't have the means to own a N64 so I couldn't really experience that game. I however owned a Nintendo DS and this tune brings me beautiful memories of playing this game on multiplayer with my best friends. I remember it all. 8th grade, at my house we would gather around, about 4 of us. We would spend hours competing with eachother in this spectacular game. Awesome memories.

[@slowinq8110]

Me too man, such memories

[@RBdude98]

This song just fits so perfect to sliding around the pipe on your kart, then through the loop, through the curves, in the corkscrew, and finally past the star so well!

[@knuclear200x]

>Master powersliding at that huge turn >Leave banana peels at the turbo boosts >Always win Except against that guy who keeps using yoshi...

[@EnglishTurtle]

This was my first true experience with a Mario Kart game. I've never owned any other Nintendo system, so I couldn't play the other Mario Kart games. This was my first one. I remember playing this game multiplayer-wise with my friends so much. I love this level so much, it brought out that starry night feeling.

[@PickleProductionsLtd]

Best music in the game by far in my opinion. Thanks for uploading!

[@EnglishTurtle]

Rainbow Road never fails to amaze me. The muisc is beautiful and the area is dreamy! It gives you that atmospheric/ starry night feeling. I like that. :)

[@Melissa08087]

Wow, I was 12 when I got this game. 5 years already. Time really flies. Always loved this course and music.

[@1piecedbz639]

27 now Melissa’s all grown up

[@fadalisdestroyer666]

this music owns any other song in MKDS. and the track also kicks ass! great vid.

[@LittleRainbowMiss]

Beautiful :')

[@MarioMario6298]

This relaxs me when i go to sleep. for some reason

[@ireallyliketacobell]

i like this song its just that i usually forget about it lol.Nice job

[@WeaviletheGreat123]

I really don't get why a lot of people dislike this one. It's EPIC!!!

[@DennisBillington]

Love The Shuttle Loop And Corkscrew!

[@PJtheSuperhog]

amazing;d

[@Infernaldave92]

now THAT's the best version!

[@DarkraiLv1000]

this is my fave Rainbow road theme! :D

[@SuperNintendoGameboy]

Probably my favorite Rainbow Road of all Rainbow Roads because it has shuttle loops and corkscrews

[@13gamerbullet]

I'm glad to hear you have an opinion, I like REALLY long tracks (that's why Wario Collusium is a favorite) But If I really hated this, and others loved it, I would know my opinion is out numbered(If I wanted to change minds) and would keep it to myself. I'm not saying "Oh, shut up" I'm saying go with the crowd, It's easier... I learned the really hard way... because others will say, in a orse attitude, "SHUT UP" if they really like it. It's like me complaining about SSBB, they would hate me...

[@princesspeach1229]

i love rainbow road! it is my favorite track! :)

[@AttorneyAtMusic]

Since Mario Kart 64, they've always had the same intro. Ahh, the nostalgia it creates. . .

[@ELsword08]

Rainbow road theme and the map is my favorite in the game

[@mapl3mage]

hardest track in the game. lost count on how many times i fell off because of those boosts, haha

[@testing60772]

Sweet Memory.............>o

[@daisuke1646]

My favorite song in the mario kart universe.

[@SpacialRend777]

The loop and the corkscrew in this course were the best! I still prefer MKW and MKDD's Rainbow Road, but this one was awsome too!

[@Achille12345]

The BEST Ranbow Road song and race was the Mario Kart Double Dash on gamecube!

[@MetroGamer1981]

True that.

[@ARCEUS551]

the most epicest mario song of all time!!!!!!!

[@Exobiologic]

"Whoa look at the plumber guy up there he driving ON the rainbow!!!!!"

[@MrWambo1996]

On New Year´s Eve´ I got the ,,King´s Cup´´ of ,,Mario Kart Double Dash!!´´. That was awesome !!! I think it happend 2006.

[@RockyMarsh09]

I LOVE this song but nothing beats the N64 version

[@9SuperMonkeyBall0]

These are good Mario games. Mario: I'm going to win. Luigi: No you're not Mario. Wario: Ahhhh, I'm able to beat all of you with these scores. 10-7-4-1. Yoshi: Yoshi.

[@gustavocarrion2282]

CTM HECHO DE MENOS MI DS, !! COMO PASAN LOS AÑOS ¡¡¡¡

[@Roxsor]

This is best RR theme in mario kart history... That one part just... make me think all things about earth to the sky... ah... Ok, ok my english suck!

[@FroststareKhold]

@TehPielightZone That reminds me when I was playing on Baby Park in a WiFi game. This one person was playing ROB but I thought it was some hacked in character seeing that I didn't have him. The thing about it was that I was in first place and the person quite literally teleported in front of me.

[@aquil37]

awesome, i'm sure

[@joanaguayoplanell4912]

in my opinion is good, i love the frontflip

[@Cyberbrickmaster1986]

And 3DS's is awesome! So if there's any Rainbow Road to play on the go, it would be that one by default.

[@johnnylaw524]

i feel flying !!

[@joeyvollenhouw4427]

So calm as joly roger bay.

[@Darksephir985]

I like the n64 version better, thx 4 posting this anyway

[@Fran_5]

MK8's reminds me of this one :,D

[@Kanashto]

If you're playing the course at like 0:27 from this videos music you can hear like stars in the game.

[@buttonpoopface]

my first rainbow road, when i first gonna race here, i thought all the road is a speed boost

[@fheisk]

sounds like an combination of the snes, n64 and gc ones, with a melody of it's own.

[@SomeDayDreamer]

argh nightmares of time attack mode.

[@bamachi6]

23 People got pushed off the track by Bowser but....1 Person kept driving themself off the road.

[@tsunamisurfer08]

I remember the first time I did Rainbow Road on MKDS. I was like, omgwtf? It was pretty cool.

[@Teknoman]

Agreed.

[@Epicfail90001]

Blue shell + Finish line = RAGE!!!

[@wakkydude]

Manual is impossible for me because I use a Wii wheel attachment that came with a magazine (My friend owns the game and always hogs the wheel) and it doesn't have that B button on the left.

[@Tycho86]

@buttonpoopface No, but that is an awesome idea. I hope they do something like that for the Wii U's 'Mario Kart' game.

[@Undead441]

Could u upload the Airship Fortress song?

[@Polterguist]

I don't know why, but :40 always makes me think if Ken Jennings from Jeopardy.

[@aquil37]

it's the catchiest one, but i still think that the MKDD one is the best

[@Flodder450]

i never found the rainbow road in MKDS to be a "true" rainbow road it felt too short

[@AttorneyAtMusic]

@corneliab They always choose this track because everyone wants to hear the music

[@chunkylover817]

ahh good old rainbow road... the official 'AH your on crack!' racetrack ^^

[@barbiebunny14]

la.. laaalaaa -_-. i love dah song

[@indigothecat]

@Tjtjboy And so far, it's the only version of the course that has a corkscrew or a v.-loop. :) or anything similar. The Wii one has all the jumps and ramps, but that's about it.

[@Torimooo]

the beginning sounds like the one in mario kart wii.

[@YeefeiMr]

I prefer the ds rainbow road music than the wii one- it sounds more fun and enjoyable to listen to

[@marioandsonic3339]

People Don't seem to give this rainbow road much respect and each one has something new to it think about it SNES the whole Rainbow road tradition N64 the Rainbowy Music GBA First Handheld rainbow GCN the Star Elevator DS The Loops Wii the Cannon and wavy surfaces

[@Leon119]

I love Rainbow Roads, but the Double Dash version has the best music

[@punn213]

lol i was playing this place with my friends, against CPU's, we went backwards and caused hazards lol that was hilarious

[@YoshiONE2ONE]

i used to pwn ppl online at this course......ahh Yoshi and Egg 1, epic winning combo! too bad i lost my game.......='(

[@BthIX]

I wasn't trying to receive a reply from the commenter, i was simply stating my opinion ;D

[@RobotwarsKing]

Arrgh, I've fallen victim to those evil little sods who cheat and/or quit if they can't win, so many times. In fact, I actually wrote "AGAINST QUITTERS" as part of my Icon!

[@PoKnAz0]

where is the rest of the song???

[@Wupar]

when i use the Wii Wheel, i SUCK with manual. i always use Auto for the Wheel because it's so annoying for me to hit B with my left finger -_-...

[@prettysplash5bell]

first rainbow road i ever played

[@MultiDiegob]

0:38 through 1:03 BEST PART

[@leopold9]

so right

[@TheDSGuy]

Pressstartoplay is right. The second time has sparkling at the end.

[@brownbrownson]

@EmeraIdHunter true, but i like the one on N64 just as much. they're tied for #1 for me.

[@wakkydude]

I'm talking about the rainbow road track on wii.

[@LunarSpawnSerenata]

I've practice hard to get this level right.

[@Dionte38118]

@corneliab You mean the one for Wii, right?

[@BthIX]

How?

[@88droid]

The rythm of this rainbow road (not the melody) kinda resembles the song from the SNES rainbow road dont you all think?

[@Gigidag77]

the beginning sounds a bit like the SNES Rainbow Road Theme

[@Bobby_Corwen]

what about the other 3?

[@Toon999kinzpengwo]

because i was so bad at rainbow road ( i was playing with online champions :( ), i just flew off the edge, so i decided to go backwards and annoy the others :3 i ended up in 3rd place in every race, but oh well

[@IDontUsePicks]

gcn is my favorite :)

[@PoquePal]

@LuigiDude1808 I lost my game too! After six months I finally got money from my Dad to buy a new one! After I got home, I took some Donald Duck comic from some box inside the room, and then suddenly my Old Mario Kart was there. So I wasted those 30 euros, but am I unhappy? Not at all! I got my game!

[@Bobby_Corwen]

Broken and over-powered.

[@MagnusvonYoshi]

Someone said EVERY Rainbow Road song after the SNES one had the same intro.

[@PoKnAz0]

it wasn't when i watched this video....

[@MetroGamer1981]

Already up.

[@chewyeclair]

This track is awesome if you don't fall off. :)

[@skyqueen3]

Well here's a thumbs UP from me, I have a soft spot for Double Dash, I liked the Baby Mario Bros. (This coming from someone who's played all current MK games on console and handheld. Not the arcade one's, I've only played one of them, I think it had Pac Man?)

[@Falkirion]

I'd agree with 64, I'm not sure which RR I'd have second though

[@freekhenstra]

This IS the original...

[@chestosneako]

Who says spammers got no life=don't got any life either.

[@881055]

オイラマリカー大好き

[@ARCEUS551]

@539Luigi same

[@Melissa08087]

I sold this game... or I traded it for a different game (cant remember). Now I regret it :/ Loved the rainbow road in MKDS (although I liked the one in DD better haha)

[@aquil37]

agreed

[@quizlixx]

0:22 - 0:27 best part

[@playoffexpert1]

Double Dash reemixed 64's theme, Wii remixed this
