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 the 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.
