Ceiling Needle

Shuriken ceilings are obstacles in the Ninja Hideaway course of Mario Kart Tour and the Booster Course Pass DLC in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. They are broad ceilings lined with large. They rise and lower at set intervals, sticking their shuriken into the floor below at their lowest point. If run into, the shuriken cause drivers who are not in a powered-up state to spin out. Shuriken ceilings cannot be taken out, but racers can land and drive on top of them from the track's upper level.

Three shuriken ceilings appear consecutively in the manor portion of the course; in Mario Kart Tour, they also appear in the same positions on the course's R variant, but are absent in the T and R/T variants. The third shuriken ceiling, as counted in the course's regular variant, has a ramp on top of it in both Mario Kart Tour and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe.
