Tear Jerker / Mario Kart

Go To

  • The credits sequence in Mario Kart 64. There's just something about the music and the panoramic views of the tracks that makes the tear ducts flow...
    • The Rainbow Road theme from this game can also count, as it takes on a slower and less energetic tone unlike the rest of the Rainbow Roads across the series.
  • The end credits theme for DS. While all the others (except for Tour) have an uplifting and satisfying tone, this brings with it a slow, somber one.
    • However, this gets averted with the additional movement you get with 100% completion, which is cheery like all the rest.
  • The ending in Mario Kart Wii when you place 4th or lower (or your team loses) is quite sad. Your player/team stands on a cliff, looking at the ceremony while a somber recorder tune plays.
