The '''Leaf Cup''' is a cup that appears in the games ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'', ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'', ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'', and ''[[Mario Kart 8]]''. The cup's emblem is a [[Super Leaf]]; since ''Mario Kart 7'', the item's redesign from ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'' is used. In the Leaf Cup, the player competes certain race courses from previous ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]'' games. The Leaf Cup usually contains tracks from the [[Flower Cup]] and [[Star Cup]], with some occasional [[Special Cup]] tracks, though ''Mario Kart DS'' featured a sole track from ''[[Mario Kart: Super Circuit]]''{{'}}s [[Lightning Cup]] and ''Mario Kart 7'' featured a sole [[Mushroom Cup]] course. The Leaf Cup is slightly more difficult when compared to the [[Banana Cup]]. Just like the Star Cup, the tracks are usually as long as the ones in the Flower Cup and the Banana Cup. However, its difficulty is on par with the Star Cup.
The '''Leaf Cup''' is a [[cup]] in the ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]'' series, introduced in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'' as the seventh cup in that game. It exclusively features [[classic course]]s, and is the third retro cup overall. The Leaf Cup usually contains courses from the [[Flower Cup]] and [[Star Cup]] of previous games, with some occasional [[Special Cup]] courses, though it features a sole course from ''[[Mario Kart: Super Circuit]]''{{'}}s [[Lightning Cup]] in ''Mario Kart DS'' ({{classic-link|GBA|Luigi Circuit}}), and a sole [[Mushroom Cup]] course in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'' ({{classic-link|N64|Kalimari Desert}}). The Leaf Cup is slightly more difficult when compared to the [[Banana Cup]], akin to the [[Star Cup]]. The cup's emblem is a [[Super Leaf]], though its design was changed starting with ''Mario Kart 7'' to match its redesign from ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]''.

The Leaf Cup is a cup in the Mario Kart series, introduced in Mario Kart DS as the seventh cup in that game. It exclusively features classic courses, and is the third retro cup overall. The Leaf Cup usually contains courses from the Flower Cup and Star Cup of previous games, with some occasional Special Cup courses, though it features a sole course from Mario Kart: Super Circuit's Lightning Cup in Mario Kart DS (GBA Luigi Circuit), and a sole Mushroom Cup course in Mario Kart 7 (N64 Kalimari Desert). The Leaf Cup is slightly more difficult when compared to the Banana Cup, akin to the Star Cup. The cup's emblem is a Super Leaf, though its design was changed starting with Mario Kart 7 to match its redesign from Super Mario 3D Land.
