===''Mario Kart'' series===
Goombas have appeared in various [[Mario Kart (series)|''Mario Kart'' games]]. They appear in several courses, acting as obstacles to racers and cause them to spin out if touched. In most games, if a Goomba is hit by an item, it drops a [[Dash Mushroom|Mushroom]] on the track, giving a kart a speed boost when picked up. They vary in size in each game they appear, though their pattern remains the same, simply waddling in place and moving slightly left and right on the track.

====''Mario Kart: Super Circuit''====
Goombas technically make their first ''Mario Kart'' appearance in ''[[Mario Kart: Super Circuit]]''. In this game, Goombas only appear in the audience when the player gets on the podium in a cup.
====''Mario Kart: Double Dash!!''====
▲[[File:Goomba-MKDD.png
Goombas appear as obstacles on [[GCN Mario Circuit|Mario Circuit]] in ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'', waddling in place right before the finish line. Hitting one causes the racer to spin out. If hit with an item, the Goomba is defeated and drops a mushroom on the track.
====''Mario Kart DS''====
In ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'', Goombas retain their behavior from the previous game, though they are now rendered as 2D sprites in-game. They appear in [[Mario Circuit (Mario Kart DS)|Mario Circuit]], as well as in certain missions in mission mode. [[Goomboss]] from ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'' also appears in ''Mario Kart DS'' as the boss of level 3 in mission mode, with him being able to spawn 2-3 Goombas every few seconds as he walks.
====''Mario Kart Wii''====
Goombas make their return in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'', once again being rendered as 3D models. They appear in [[Mushroom Gorge]], [[Mario Circuit (Mario Kart Wii)|Mario Circuit]], [[Koopa Cape]], and {{classic|GCN|Mario Circuit}}, as well as spectators in the trophy celebration.
====''Mario Kart 7''====
In ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'', Goombas are much larger than in previous games, but once again have the same behavior, appearing in [[3DS Mario Circuit|Mario Circuit]], [[Piranha Plant Slide]], {{classic|Wii|Mushroom Gorge}} and {{classic|Wii|Koopa Cape}}. On Piranha Plant Slide, the underground Goombas are colored blue, and there are also cardboard cutouts of Goombas blocking the last few turns of the course.
====''Mario Kart 8'' / ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe''====
Goombas reappear as obstacles in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' on [[Mario Circuit (Mario Kart 8)|Mario Circuit]], {{classic-link|N64|Yoshi Valley}}, where they replace [[Porcupo]]s, and {{classic|3DS|Piranha Plant Slide}} in the base games and in {{classic-link|Tour|New York Minute}} and {{classic|Wii|Mushroom Gorge}} in the [[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass|Booster Course Pass]] for the latter game. A [[Goomba Tower]] also appears at the end of Mario Circuit. A Goomba cameos on the height requirement posters in the entrance to the Sub Coaster ride in [[Water Park]], representing the height that riders must be taller than.
====''Mario Kart Tour''====
In ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', Goombas reprise their role as obstacles, appearing in many stages and stage variants as obstacles. They are the main focus of "Goomba Takedown" challenges, where they may appear in large formations, most of the time in Goomba Towers. In this game, Goombas can be bowled over by simply driving into them, although this also causes the driver to spin out like in other ''Mario Kart'' games unless they are invincible or under the effects of a [[Mega Mushroom]]. They can also be defeated by landing on them while gliding or after driving off a ramp, giving the driver a Jump Boost. For normal course variants they are found on all versions of [[Paris Promenade]], as well as [[Singapore Speedway]], [[RMX Mario Circuit 1]], {{classic-link|Wii|Wii Mushroom Gorge}}, {{classic-link|Wii|Koopa Cape}}, {{classic-link|3DS|Mario Circuit}}, and {{classic-link|3DS|Piranha Plant Slide}}. [[Innertube Goomba]]s are also obstacles in Singapore Speedway.
