Classic VGM 30: Mario Kart Double Dash - Rainbow Road

[MarioMario6298]

i cried so hard...

[MylestheMediaMaster]

I hate it when people criticise others for wishing more games with online content, but I agree completely. I think most, if not all, games should have some online content. It keeps it fresh and interesting, and it gets boring after you do everything that isnt online.

[LEGOFChannel]

I'd like a new Mario Kart with the option for two racers like Double Dash or just single racers like there has been. I'd find that more entertaining than gliding through the sky.

[righthandbland]

Christ, their calling THIS classic now..? It hasn't been THAT long...Right..?

[illmatic28]

@righthandbland Yes. Yes, they are. And it depends on whether or not you think 8+ years ago is a long time or not. =)

[righthandbland]

@illmatic28 It's really been 8+ years? Wow... Where did the time go...

[CaptainTid]

I think as a party game, this was definitely my favourite Mario Kart. Nothing greater than teaming up with three bros and doing some 2 v 2 grand prixs. Overall I prefer Mario Kart 7, but it definitely doesn't have that party game value.

[supercardibros]

@CaptainTid I think of it the same way to and hopefully for mario kart wii u this rainbowroad is back as a retro track lol i wish but i dont think theyll put this rainbowroad at all

[pennyman3229]

mario is awesome

[thomas1999]

I never undestand how MK64 is better, it's a more limited version of a great game not even in proper 3D, so it must be nostalgia, don't get me wrong it's great but not as good as MKDD

[hungryhungrymetroid]

@thomas1999 Well, gameplay is also much different and other factors, so they are comparable. I do love both games though.

[truemario8989]

This is the best Rainbow Road Song, im currently learning it on the Piano!

[mytimton]

@truemario8989 This one is good, but the N64 one was the best

[SCDHSGrad2010]

Mario Kart 64 brought me here. What a way to pay tribute to a classic game! :D

[modshroom]

it's the road where you go when you die.

[PrfctPhntm]

its the place you go when you die

[megashadow1390]

this HAS to be the BEST rainbow road song after the SNES one... i mean it takes the original song from the N64, but just improves it and makes it more awe striking and epic.

[CreepaPunch]

Mario Revolution ( the last mario kart ) will be release and it countain all track in the history of mario kart :D

[roamer45]

@CreepaPunch where did you hear that.

[Spicywienerful]

Nintendo should remake all of the Mario Kart games for one big deluxe game... In HD... For all consoles...

[seanMmaguire1]

@Spicywienerful thats some wishful thinking.

[ShadowTheHedgehogSSB]

@Spicywienerful

agreed

[IwubMaiColettie]

@Spicywienerful I thought it was an awesome Idea... until the "For all consoles" part

[64supermarioreturns]

@Spicywienerful Sure, except no to the part for all consoles, Sony and Microsoft can make their own stuff Nintendo isn't becoming a third-party. I refuse to live in a world of gaming without Big N

[LemonCurdAddict1234]

Thumbs up if you hope you'll go to Rainbow Road instead of Heaven when you die.

[nightral8I4]

Look at peach, theres a banana in front of her car xD

[hofmann1996]

baby luigi we have a dog

[HaloSpartanG13]

Damn, I remember this years ago.....good times drinking pop and doing battle mode.

[meta527II]

2 people fell off Rainbow Road

[mooper11]

Thumbs up for double-dash remake

[MegaMannyKing]

MKW's Rainbow Road is the Best 

[toddmilhouse]

@MegaMannyKing

mariokart 64 version is better. somethin' is wrong with you for sure.....

[meta527II]

@toddmilhouse Was that an insult? It's a matter of opinion.

[SimulereAvDetPokkerz]

@MegaMannyKing

What are you talking about? N64 is easily the way to go

[dtwiiguru6]

@MegaMannyKing instead of getting into a big blowout with you over his, I will just state my opinion.

I personally think MKDD rainbow road is the best. my opinion

[DetectiveFlip]

Win.

[beyboh]

This is the best MarioKart of all time

if only it had Wi-fi...

[4td0]

@beyboh Mario Kart Double Dash 2 for the Wii U? :D

[Theman17008]

I loved rainbow road song

[GreenrangeRemix]

DOUBLE RAINBOW ALL THE WAY! WHAT DOES THIS MEAN???

[robertjohnson487]

@GreenrangeRemix GREENRANGE REMIX is the worst kind of youtube troll. I have received two extremely perverted, sexually explicit messages from him where he details his homosexual fantasies, etc. I had to block him from my channel in the end. This norwegian creeper should be banned from youtube.

[papermariofan11]

DOUBLE RAINBOW lol

[twiligame]

how awesom would it be if the ds rainbowroad was on double dash and with this music!!!

[JirachiMaster007]

Far superior to the theme on the Wii

[MrMatt828]

The best part of mario kart double dash rainbow road is the music, and knocking other racers out of the track. The worst part is you falling off the track.

[1400jgkespinoza]

one of the best nintendo games ever made. yes, even better than mk64. im sorry

[Buizel5656]

there should be a mario kart double dash wii

[cocobekabff]

@Buizel5656 if you have this game you can play it on the wii but yeah i agree

[Mikia33]

I know some might disagree because of the nostalgic factor the older ones present. But no counting nostalgia, you have to admit the layout was the best and the music was great!

[Mikia33]

BEST RAINBOW ROAD EVAR!!!!

[bealtespip123]

THE best Mario Kart game!!!! = D

[superluigi132]

This game might even be better than MKWii =,) Great memories...

[Trudermark]

W00T!

[HesDaryl]

i like this rainbow road track better than the wii one

[sponges1234565789]

@HesDaryl

me too...

I have both of them on my iPod...

[shadowzapdos]

i NEED THIS GAME......!! X3

[ultrabrilliant]

It's a road you go when you die.

[Meta527]

This song is the best version of Rainbow Road! Everyone thinks that the SNES version was better JUST BECAUSE THE SNES VERSION WAS THE ORIGINAL. I like the SNES version, but you get the point.

[Shadowdahedgehog59]

0:45 You can hear how this song was dedicated to all Mario Kart-fans! :D

[chimchar349]

@shadowdahedehog,

right on!

[RoadkillForSkaters]

aw i cant =[ what is it

[Shadowdahedgehog59]

It's a part from the Rainbow Road theme from Mario Kart 64. Get it now?

[RoadkillForSkaters]

ok dude thanks chill

[beattio]

@Shadowdahedgehog59 what do you mean?

[thedarkprince101]

@beattio He means how that part was from the 64 version.

[SCDHSGrad2010]

@Shadowdahedgehog59 MARIO KART 64!!!!!

[zamusician]

Amazing music. I remember I would sometimes find myself falling off the track because I was listening to the music. Now I wanna play DD...

[RoadkillForSkaters]

lol same

[FreakofGalaxyandBK]

I wish this game had "Welcome to Mario Kart!"...even a "Welcome to Rainbow Road!" for this stage would have been good. Unfortunately, they more or less forgot about welcoming intros...

[BlitzAce13]

BEST. TRACK. EVER.!

[ragt476]

i wish they would have played this soundtrack on rainbow road for wii :(

[mrm64]

anyone else but me thinks this song can put a 3 year old to sleep? :) its so peaceful :)

[lancemasterpiece]

not only three my 7 yo sister sleeps like a log

[PrinceForte]

This rendition? Not likely. Maybe the N64 version is what you're thinking of.

[kennydied1000]

do they still sell gamecubes? reply plz

[TheStand04]

I don't think so, but you can still get them online on sites like Amazon or E-bay.

[meanscreenMKW]

@kennydied1000 Probaly not, but you can play Gamecube games on the Wii. I do that with this game, and it worked (but I have no save card D8) .

[konnor009]

@kennydied1000 Try eBay.

[MephilesTheDark13]

Although i hate mario and nintendo this is still a great song

[sonyvssnes]

get the fuck outta here bitch

[MephilesTheDark13]

Grow up.

[yellsmanu]

all about the veterens really

[thierry2pac]

really??? baby maz and the indescribable Mushroom head cunt

[mariofannumber1]

this brings back good memories when i had a GC :( makes me want to cry right now i wish i still had this game :'(

[cb19882000]

its called a road its called a rainbow road it is a road that you go

[sonicspeed3281995]

if only rainbow road existed high in the sky

[ssj2matt]

IMO with future technology we should build various Rainbow Roads and use futuristic go-karts to race on them.

[Nintendo122333]

I actually think it'd be more fun to make a rainbow road for rollerbladers or ice skaters as a race. Also include Tournaments. o_o... Now that would be fun...

[bwburke94]

@ssj2matt N64 Rainbow Road reappeared in an F-Zero game.

[c0mf0rta61ynum6]

@sonicspeed3281995 It is in the sky. It's where you go when you die.

[chidory19]

@sonicspeed3281995 but then every day some reckless guy in an indestructable cart crashes into our house.

[neonal18]

@sonicspeed3281995 But which version would it be? And also, would our puny earth cars be able to handle it?  Not the difficulty of the road; I mean the sheer awesomeness it radiates!

[BoxOfStupidity]

@neonal18 our cars could handle it, but our bodies couldn't if we fell off.

[ddcordova2]

@sonicspeed3281995 It does, oh wait that was a drug trip I was on the other day wasn't it? lol

[Kisarez]

Rainbow Road themes are always a joy to behold.. parties to celebrate the greatness another Mario Kart game has presented to you

[WiifreakSS]

hmmm, maybe a Rainbow Cup?

[YoshiChampion117]

i always thought that would be a good idea. it could contain all of the rainbow roads from past mario karts

[marcia0365]

ik zou ook dit spel willen hebben

[thehitcher000003]

Man I miss the Double, cooparative feature. They should put an online feature in Mario Kart Wii, where you are paired with someone online.

[Tahngarthor]

There is a program called Warp Pipe that lets you use Double Dash (and kirby's air ride)'s LAN mode over the internet though you have to set it up with people, unlike MK Wii.

[thehitcher000003]

That sounds quite good. I'll look into that, thanks for telling me about it :)

[Tahngarthor]

The challenge is finding people with the gamecube network adapter. :p

[Joseph8456]

i just LOVE this 1

i think 0:48 to 0:59 is the best

[Frankie2Jersey]

Do you notice tht every Mario Kart has a Rainbow Road track? The music for the N64 and Gamecube are the best ones

[Keysuke18]

The Best theme EVER!! *-*!!

[ZdsOhio]

This theme is awesome!

[ThePreppettez]

omg x.x i still have this game after a while x3 its a great game and this was my fave.

[GroceryStoreHerowine]

i miss this game alot. and this was my best one! i always got first on this track. my second favourite is baby mario and baby luigi's amusement park

[starflame34]

love the track and music

[CypherSqueak]

Adding &fmt=18 to this really makes an awesome difference

[Tumi23]

true

[yoshidude44]

Five stars!

[MasterKurado]

why isnt this on mario kart wii??

on retro tracks?????

:S

[STECKEDDECK]

i wonder ^^

i't should be the last Track on lightning cup. All Tracks from GCN which are on MKWii are shit. The should earse Peach beach or Mario Circut <.<

[leafbarrett]

They should make a Rainbow Cup: Strictly retro Rainbow Road tracks.

[mastebroekie]

That's a good idea.

[GigaGabo]

hell yeah they should

[comanche999999]

man i thought of that b4 the game came out but sadly they didn't do it :'(

[darla620]

What a great idea! Nintendo, I URGE you to do that.

[kz201]

maybe a Castle Cup: all Bowser Castle tracks...

[dragonball4ever2009]

@leafbarrett That's exactly what I thought, though the SNES one should be last cause it's epic.

[sponges1234565789]

@leafbarrett

My thoughts exactly!!!

[superluigi132]

Riivolution is program for Mario Kart Wii which allows people to make their own tracks and let other people use them. so far there are 4 different rainbow roads made. SNES, GameCube, GBA, and DS. DS never was released to the world. Somebody made a ''Space Road'' that looks like Rainbow Road. Just search for Riivolution on YouTube and you'll find it.

[MylestheMediaMaster]

@leafbarrett Let's hope it makes it into Mario Kart 3DS!

[supercardibros]

@MylestheMediaMaster lol too late lets hope it makes it into mario kart wii u !

[prettysplash5bell]

@leafbarrett i know im suprised they havent!

[SyrathZidane]

This game is good, but I prefer the MK64. That game it's just orgasmic, the Battle in MKDD is just plain boring =P

[disneygrab1]

I DISAGREE with you!

MKDD!!'s battle theme is REALLY CATCHY!

[MaverickHunterVile]

hard, but easier than the SNESS, though

[disneygrab1]

How is it more easy than the SMK version?

[MaverickHunterVile]

simple, as hard as you try to master sness version, it is a fast, short and very thin course, and there is absolutely no walls around the entire stage, if you do anything wrong, you fall, the double dash one, it looks very hard, but once ou master it at high speed, you are home free in that track

[disneygrab1]

Uhh... that was TOO MUCH info for me.

Just try the SMK version in MKSC!

[MaverickHunterVile]

yep, I did!

[disneygrab1]

What'd you think?

[MaverickHunterVile]

still hard....

[disneygrab1]

Yea, if you were like me, it could be pretty easy, since the thwomps are gone.

[BleedingGrafitti]

ahhh this gives me memories

[TheDragonBoss]

I like the speed at the final lap thanks for the song

[xxeleloverxx]

makes me so happy this tune : D

ive lost this game and im not gonna

rest untill i find it cause its the best

mario kart game by far! x

[MetalSonicEX]

Everytime I hear this, I begin thinking of that vocal version.

[FranCrossSin]

can you put link for download final lap rainbow road? :D

[ritchieboys]

ths game is better than mario kart wii.

[EvelioEinWindir]

IMO, they took everything great about Mario Kart Double Dash and released it for the Wii with awfulness galore!

[autobotjazz267]

by far

[203177]

I like this song.
