Mario Kart 64: Koopa Troopa Beach

[mixonytegal]

Too many memories :)

[lava172]

i remember when i was like 2 or 3 i was learning how to play video games, i played this track, i got on the shortcut, but then i got stuck somehow :P

[MegamanNG]

Honorable mention... the ramp to nowhere!

[nypad5]

HOLY SHIZ never even noticed...at 1:00 mark you can hear the whistle theme that is enhanced in the mario kart 7 version...I thought they added that in mario kart 7 to the theme but its been there since day one...WOW...never even noticed before...

[MrSuperleobros]

This and Kalimari desert both brought a tear to my eye when I was able to relive those sweet memories all over again in mario kart 7.

[80sMeavyHetal]

22 people try to use the shortcut but always fail at it

[MrSuperleobros]

One of my favorite mario kart 7 retro tracks. Before mk7 I was like "Oh god this track would be perfect for mk7 with its handgliding and underwater capabilities." After Luigi Raceway and Kalimari Desert were confirmed I lost hope as they were both mushroom cup tracks but when it was confirmed I was like "Perfect, Yes!"

[andrew1900]

i choose koopa every time i play mario kart 7 online and choose this track every time haha

[JihadBunnydick]

23 people couldnt get behind the waterfall WHOMP FALL!!!

[Racoon4432]

22 people had skid way off the track.....

[Kirbyguy12345]

I'm happy it came back in mario kart 7

[Racoon4432]

@Kirbyguy12345 me too! it was a blast from the past for me as soon as I raced this track.

[Kirbyguy12345]

@Racoon4432 I usually pick this online

[unitedjt345]

XD Doin the hula rite now!!!!

[XjestR]

I always play this song when I'm driving on the beach running people over throwing shells at them before I go to prison every 2 years

[supersonic71097]

I grew up with the Dreamcast.....T___T

[DiagramOfTruth]

@supersonic71097 I grew up with the CD-I and Jaguar

[mrpankau]

I always take the waterfall shortcut backwards...

[superting23]

ahhh steel drums, makes me feel like I am in the caribbean! :D

[ThatAwesomeUsername]

Thumbs up if you hated the Shortcut behind the waterfall

[moRULEZ18981]

@ThatAwesomeUsername In Mario Kart 7 it's easier to get to... >:(

[ColorRobo]

@moRULEZ18981 >easier

In MK64 it didn't require a mushroom. It does now.

[mrWendybird]

This game was amazing. I even had the official strategy guide before even getting the game. This is probably my favorite of the Mario Kart games.

[nypad5]

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh mario kart 7!!! they are showing n64 love in that one! Koopa beach, luigis raceway AND KALAMARI DESERT ARMAORMAOFMAOFMOAMFOAMFOAMFOAM­FOAMF

[letiquia]

The only track with a real shortcut..all the others are glitches or not meant to be...lol...love the Wario's track shortcut though

[AyKay4ty7ven]

I need a star *gets a pack of bananas* DAMN!

[KyubiStewie]

It's on Mario Kart 7, but no underwater deaths. :(

[DarkBristle92]

@KyubiStewie why would you want them? :P

[KyubiStewie]

@DarkBristle92 No death means the game is too easy.

[MajorasMask219]

i had never known before that the big rock on this stage was in the shape of a turtle. then when i saw the end credits of the game and it showed it i was all like :o

lol i cant believe i didn't notice it at first

[socom7575]

Ahh good times when I beat this game I remember that in koopa troopa beach there was a cave that ur supposed to go in with mushroom

[7678mew]

Thumbs Up If You Got Here From AGentertainment

[LD75network]

This isn't the best Mario Kart beach song, but it's still a good one. The SNES version takes that title (the best beach song).

[RazorStorm626]

Those damn crabs!

[popcorn247]

@RazorStorm626 And the trees when you were in a hurry, lol!

[cooldima24303]

21 people were looking for Koopa Cape

[friendsweetc]

my favorite race track

[Plaguetongue1]

Damn.. The music here just wanna take me to a southern beach and do a race like in Mario Kart :)

[Gege096]

This will be in Mario Kart 7. ^_^

[TheBiggamer64]

@Gege096 ARE YOU SERIOUS????  YAYAYAYAYAYAYAY

[Sudsmaster100]

Kopa Troopa Beach made it in Mario Kart 7

[MrSuperleobros]

Koopa troopa beach looks gorgeous on mario kart 7, just look up mario kart 7 banana cup. It brought a tear to my eye, oh and Waluigi Pinball looks epic.

[Bammer2001]

Let's stop feeling broken down by GameSpot's review of this game and play and listen to this song. We don't even care if the rating is 6.4 as long as this game has sold more than 9 million copies around the world.

[Bammer2001]

I would so much love to make an animation where you have the Mario characters in a similar fashion to the Beach Party animation created with Flipnote Studio, except with this track. I would ought to see the feeling of vacation time and not even stress too much on something and stay fully adapted. That's what really happens with children with autism or even teenagers. I'm 18 years old, still have problems, but have emotional attachments.

[MinilandMayhem101]

Thumbs up if like going into the waterfall!

[MinilandMayhem101]

This is in Mario Kart 7!!!! XDD

[VxItachixV]

Nahhh Koopa Troopa beach has been remixed a couple of times

[DubzFour]

i was born in 1997. im 14 years old now

and when i was like 4 y/o my brother gave me his nintendo 64. and he said

Enjoy while you can. since then i never forgot these words or the games itself.

I will never sell the nintendo 64 in my whole life.

if my friends have an xbox 720 i dont care.

im proud with my n64. gtfo :D

[FibrousAcquiescence]

Is Koopa Beach 1 in Mario Kart 7?

[SuperGotenks36]

cant WAIT to see how this music will sound in Mario Kart 7!

[DemonicDragon93]

@SuperGotenks36 WAIT THIS SONG IS BEING REMIXED IN THE NEW MARIO KART *JIZZES* holy shit i can't wait

[hungryhungrymetroid]

@DemonicDragon93 I don't think any of the songs from classic tracks are being remixed.

[SuperGotenks36]

@hungryhungrymetroid yep some are remixed :)

[SuperGotenks36]

@DemonicDragon93 Have you heard the awesome remix and or gotten MK7 yet? :)

[DemonicDragon93]

@SuperGotenks36 na i don't have a 3ds but god i want this game

[iheartvideogames1236]

i also hate that stupid thing thats like oh u added too many comments enter this to keep adding comments.

[iheartvideogames1236]

WOW THIS GAME IS AS OLD AS I AM?????????? see i grew up with the game cube XD i played double dash nonstop. i still pla it today. its one of the first games i EVER got.so now i have an xobox and play cod, but those days will never be foregotten.

[hungryhungrymetroid]

@iheartvideogames1236 i grew up with this game and still play it, but I'm glad I never ot into CoD.

[finfafen]

[GaraOFtheeFUNK]

@KonaKonaKaabisteru That's no proof. It's fake,huh?

[MrSuperleobros]

@GaraOFtheeFUNK Go to the japanese website and click on the koopa troopa character demo. Then you will see the iconic koopa shaped rock of koopa troopa beach.

[hungryhungrymetroid]

@GaraOFtheeFUNK It's not fake, it;s been confirmed as a classic track, go check any article about it.

[LJay54]

21 people wish there ps3 was as good as the n64!

[GaraOFtheeFUNK]

@LJay54 More like 22 people want you to stop making crappy jokes.

[MrSuperleobros]

I'm so glad this is in mario kart 7. Mario kart ds and mario kart wii, just look at mario kart 7's retro tracks.

Now that's a good retro track selection.

I mean this track, kalimari desert, waluigi pinball, airship fortress, maple treeway, dino dino jungle, coconut mall, koopa cape, mushroom gorge and many more!

[GaraOFtheeFUNK]

[MrSuperleobros]

@GaraOFtheeFUNK Go to the mario kart 7 japanese website for mario kart 7

[neochris2]

CONFIRMED FOR MK7

[TKOblue]

As a lover of the N64 and all things oceanic/nautical/tropical, I can say without any embarassment that this song ends with me cumming my pants. 

[msj340]

That banana peel or fake item block on the ramp before the waterfall shortcut.........I did it. ^__^

[guapopollo]

This track reminds me so much of games from the gamecube... probably because the gamecube always used alot of steel drum samples >_>

[pokemon92753]

Sounds tropical... Almost like it sounds Easter Island-ish

[MistressMokenba]

oh yes games from way back when will always be the best

[MescalineLoverz]

20 People don´t find the shortcuts..

[tobishi25]

feels like im in hawaii lol

[classicskid10]

I know, I'm only 11, but I've been playing Mario Kart since I was 3-5. See how their cars are all old school and just different colors? I like them like that, not all pimped out. Also, I don't care if the Nintendo 64 is old, the older they are, the more ADDICTING they are. Here are my favorite systems: Nintendo 64, Gameboy color, NES, and the ORIGINAL D.S. Lite. Old games are so awesome.

[mellesms]

@classicskid10 i agree, im only 15 and this, super mario 64 and donkey kong country 2 are my favorite games, i played them when i was very young and these days i still love these games <3

[classicskid10]

@mellesms Well, nothing beats this......... but away from Mario, I REALLY liked StarFox 64

[Aluminessa]

lol nintendo doesnt love luigi, wario came before him on teh cover xD

[pokemon92753]

@Aluminessa Not true. Both Mario and Luigi came before Wario and Waluigi.

[Aluminessa]

@pokemon92753 i know that im just stating that they decided to put wario on the cover instead of poor luigi xDDD

[titanb5]

@Aluminessa ya know its also cause luigi and yoshi are tied for first and those are the left behinds XD

[Dodgers1411]

True players use shortcuts

[bianeck1992]

true pilots used the shortcut



[TeeRells711]

eating blue jolly ranchers to this.. dance!

[joekelly101]

True racers ignored the short cut.

[HaLoFreQ2000]

love the music as always.........hate that fucking shortcut

[hugo80784]

mijn favo van de n64!!!

[yoshieggs6]

@lo0katmyn4me games are made to be fun, not about how many pixels it has. Btw, back then, these graphics are like the current "HURRR DURRR SHOTER GAMES"

[titanb5]

dont shoot me on what ima say but me and my brother always called this koopa troopa bitch cause of the dam shortcut >.< like a 1-mill chance with or without that dam shroom all in all i still love the place :D

[totesngotes]

@Marionist98 read carefully Ok? you don't always need to be retarded at reading

[totesngotes]

@Marionist98 can you read i said my friend only likes graphics... gameplay, audio, and unlockables give the tinyest change of opinion on his games. so why don't you GTFO

[Tails919]

Forget about graphics!!

THE GAMES IS FOR FUN AND MEMORIES WE NEVER HAD IN OUR LIVES.

Once Again. Thank You @nintendo

[nypad5]

MARIO KART 7, all thats left for them to choose as classic tracks are Koopa Beach 64 or Kalimari !! whichever would be amazing!

[TheLonelyredfox]

I wish this was extended..

[MultiAnimeFan98]

ahhhhh love this track although i always had the feeling my doorbell was ringing when i heard the song :P

[galaxymaster]

i love this game :)

[Bazzooka1518]

Epic theme :D

Makes me thiking i'm in Hawaï :D

[snakeisninja]

WEEEEEEEEEEEELCOME TO JAMAICA!

[Sadet1991]

yay for tropical sounding music

[BenWallenBenWallen]

Sounds like koopa troopa gettin' raped in the go go grocery

[Bammer2001]

I would actually take a train, head down south and enjoy the ride for 30 or so hours of relaxing, enjoying Amtrak's foods and so on. I do live in Canada, but luckily, just outside Montreal and their train station is even offered as one of Amtrak's destinations.

[Bammer2001]

19 people can't make it to the top of the tallest jump in this track.

[zoraluigi]

NOSTALGIA.



[playoffexpert1]

@Sheldetin Yes!!!

[mjlover818]

ahh memories of my friend hitting me with shells and stars while i did nothing :)

[hungryhungrymetroid]

@playoffexpert1 You know that the 3ds isn't just like the regular ds. It's actually more powerful than the wii, and they probably will put some of these courses in that game. From all of the gameplay video so far, it looks way better than MK wii.

[playoffexpert1]

@hungryhungrymetroid Doesn't matter, it's still a portabe which equals bullshit. All the best games should be saved for the console.

[nsmbw222]

@playoffexpert1 well I wouldn't agree to that. I say the game is like any other mario kart game console or portable. its the same thing really. All that would be added its new courses and karts.

[KonaKonaKaabisteru]

Ya know how many of these tracks are like very well done remakes or variations of the Super Mario Kart-tracks?

[playoffexpert1]

@KonaKonaKaabisteru Lol they really are. It's like more thought out courses and the electronic music instead of the 16 bit. And this is coming from someone who never even played SMK.

[meganico98]

*imagines some guys relaxing in an hotel playa in an island,with a MASSIVE swimming pool,a swim-up ultra-luxe bar and a big hot tub*

[tetradd]

When we were young: "Okay no taking the shortcut" "Deal"

Later in the race: *Takes the shortcut*

[Zeldabuddy]

@tetradd Dude we did that everytime at my cousin's house

[TheDodoman3000]

@KyubiStewie But I would hate having the Koopas jump out at me and kill me spontaneously :P

[LegendofNintendo17]

This may be on Mariokart 3DS cause it would be perfect for the 3D coing into the hole with a Mushroom

[truearea53]

18 was on the party ship but due to messing around & bad mouthing the party ship they've been stuffed in the canon and been shot in the middle of the sea and been devoured by sharks XD

[im8yearsoldandabove]

wario is to cute

[NintendoTV64]

*DK relaxes on the beach while this song plays*

[godofguitar6]

18 people slipped on the crabs at the end of the final lap

[hombreg1]

LOL this was the first song to introduce me to the ganjah-loving world of jamaican music

[neochris2]

haha, love it!

[80sMeavyHetal]

The new generations do not deserve this epic Music and these games

They can listen to their nowadays crap

[Mofoe2001]

Every time I go to the beach, this song plays.

[CrystalIce]

Great tropical beat, with a hint of reggae vibes!

[TACOKITTY1000]

CONGA BITCH!

[CJS925]

You could imagine how pissed I was when I found out that the waterfall is the EXIT of the shortcut, not the beginning.

[foxmcloud555]

@CJS925 Hahaha I used to tell my cousin the waterfall was the entrance!

[hiddenbutdeadly]

@CJS925

oh that pissed off?

how about that HUGE ASS rock that is IMPOSSIBLE to get over....

[mariosonic66]

18 people didnt use a mushroom in the shortcut again...

[gogos900]

Welocome To The Japens

[kenrickeason]

Welcome to the bahamas

[woolfkrazee]

Mario rocks. period.

[soldaatjhu]

they re-made this track in halo reach! verry funny!

[Cyberwaluigi]

Welcome to Hawaii

[player9191RDV]

18 people crashed into the trees

[b1tchJ]

LMAO!!! I would purposely lure my sister into those trees. I would go on the outskirts and watch the tragedy while cruising into first place!

@player9191RDV

[mariodude8989211]

@shadowgirlof11 You obviously can't tell time, YouTube wasn't even MADE yet in 1996. Plus, how can you be born this year? If you were, you wouldn't even be able to type yet.

[DonkeykongSw2]

12 ppl were attacked by crab

6 ppl were crash the tree

all are 18

[GreenEyedGamer]

Thumbs up if you can take the shortcut without a mushroom. ;D

[supersmashman90]

sheesh i was born in 1990 and i still remember as i was 7 going through shortcuts and getting on that giant ramp to that giant rock.

[randomperson763]

Fun fact: This course was origionally going to return as a retro course for mario kart ds. It was scrapped and for some reason it didn't return in mario kart wii. I guess it wasn't in mario kart wii because the shortcut would be too easy to do. Just use a trick.

[KingBrenn]

@randomperson763 Didn't they take out one of the shortcuts on Yoshi circuit altogether in MKDS??

[randomperson763]

@KingBrenn True.

[NintendoTV64]

@KingBrenn Damnit I loved that shortcut in MKDD! I use it all the time! Why does Nintendo take it out!

[theboredbullets]

i made mario and peach get married on this track when i was little XDDD and then I literally spent hours trying to get into the short cut,i never even thought about using a mushroom.. ._.

[mariodude8989211]

@theboredbullets

What do you mean by " I made Mario and Peach get married on this track"?

[drumminfro]

A real G can get into the hole without the mushroom

[sillykittycookie667]

@drumminfro wth who is that!?

[drumminfro]

@sillykittycookie667 That would be me. It's quite simple actually. Just drift around that curve until you get red smoke and when you get that little boost at the end of the drift, use that to propel yourself into the hole.

[RickygoesRawrr]

@drumminfro

driftin like a G ;)

[llopez029]

Very catchy!

[2FunnyVersionIV]

I hope Nintendo puts this in Mario Kart 3DS.

[JabuJabule]

@2FunnyVersionIV

I hope they do too! :)

[2FunnyVersionIV]

@JabuJabule The reason being is because it was my favourite course in the game.

[TeeRells711]

This song is so pretty . Dance my. Aannoying. Crabs dance!! Donkey kong : araggh aaraggh!

[BlossomGrace]

oh man, as soon as the song started playing, all the memories of playing on this level rushed back to me! that stupid shortcut that i kept getting stuck in... ah good times... born in '94!!!

[08chinup]

this song is truly beautiful 2 listen to. 4 all the people who typed good comments about this u are truly awesome people. but if u typed bad comments like @legofatcat then u can go fuk yrself.

[evankimori]

Makes me glad I'm born in Trinidad, birthplace of the steelpan instrument used to play part of this song. :D Always a favorite stage because it reminds me of home.

[InsaneBuzzNeini]

@legofatcat

You have no soul.

[wwechikka]

@legofatcat Is the word that probably describes your childhood.

[legofatcat]

@wwechikka hey im still a kid and the only reason i said it was lame was because  its just a song so sorry i didnt mean to offend anyone

[donaldthescotishtwin]

@legofatcat the only thing lame is those gory shooting games you play

[legofatcat]

i dont play shooting games and i like mario kart but i said it was lame because it was just a song so dont get mad at me

[donaldthescotishtwin]

@legofatcat Its not just a song it's my childhood

[legofatcat]

@donaldthescotishtwin then i am reall really sorry for making you feel bad

[Blizzarderful]

Born in 1992 this game made a part of my childhood :D Ah man I loved play it with my sister!

[catails617]

My childhood. :D I was born in '96 and I played this game and Super Mario 64 almost every day :D I still play it and throughly enjoy it to this day ouo ♥ ... Cept that darn shortcut. Still suck at getting through that XDDD

[Hipponinja904]

I was born in 1997 and I grew up with this game ;)

[bowser956]

I was born i 1996 and i friggin played this game so much i broke the n64 and my dad had to buy a new one of ebay. fo realz.

[shadowgirlof11]

I never heard of this game. Because I was born just this year. 1996.

[Platinumyo]

@shadowgirlof11

Virtual Console, kid. See what all the fuss is about.

[charger619c]

@shadowgirlof11 were you born in ethiopia in 1996? how the fuck could you have never heard of this game?

[TheRealKuroKun]

@shadowgirlof11 So was I, yet I still have memories of this game...most enjoyable memories...
