===''Mario Kart: Double Dash!!''===
In ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'', Triple Red Shells are among one of the two [[Special Item (Mario Kart series)|special items]] usable by [[Koopa Troopa|Koopa]] and [[Koopa Paratroopa|Paratroopa]]; as with all special items in the game, they can also be used by [[Petey Piranha]] and [[King Boo]]. This is the only game where the Red Shells do not orbit the kart; instead, they are held by the character in the back, though they otherwise function the same.

This is the only game where the Red Shells do not orbit the kart; instead, they are held by the character in the back, though they otherwise function the same. Like the [[Triple Green Shell]]s and [[Triple Mushroom]]s, should the player crash while holding two or three of the Red Shells, they will drop them until they are only holding one.

Triple Red Shells return in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'', behaving exactly the same as in previous games. They can be obtained as uncommon to rare items in fourth through eighth place in Grand Prix and VS modes; in Battle Mode, they are usually obtained by poorly-performing players. The best chance of getting this item is in 5th place, with a 12.5 percent (5 out of 40) chance of getting it in said position. If the player currently has a Triple Red Shell, they are unable to obtain a [[Triple Bananas|Triple Banana]] or [[Triple Green Shells|Triple Green Shell]] and vice versa.

*'''Trading card description:''' ''"There is a single Red Shell item, but this is three times as good! Triple Red Shells form a protective barrier around your vehicle helping you to fend off attacks. Then they can be fired, one by one or in rapid succession, forward or backward depending on your needs. The difference between Green and Red Shells is that Red Shells will hone in on the closest rival racer."''
