'''Tilt-a-Kart''' is a battle course in ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'' The course is a large platform that forms out the original 8-bit pixelated form of Mario, with the color palette that he had in ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', a concept later used on the 8-bit planet in the [[Toy Time Galaxy]] from ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and [[Mario Squared Galaxy]] from ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. The battle course also has a background that somewhat resembles the special stages' from [[Super Mario Sunshine]].

As the name may imply, the course tilts side-to-side, slightly interrupting the battle. White tiles surrounding Mario's figure can slow down the [[Kart]]s, making them easy targets for being hit by items. Additionally, when players fall off (this being the only battle course in the game to have this possible), they are placed on small white platforms above the Tilt-a-Kart, which they are forced to drive off of and onto the course, much like ''[[Mario Bros. (game)|Mario Bros.]]'' when the player(s) lose a life as they restart on a small platform above the stage and resume gameplay by jumping off it. Like certain ones on the [[Daisy Cruiser]], [[Item Box]]es tilt around on the stage as the stage itself does.

This course is unlockable, and is unlocked when the [[Flower Cup]] is beaten in [[Mirror Mode]], making it the last battle course to be unlocked.

==Trivia==
*The music in this course is somewhat based on that of the ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' main theme and [[Baby Park]] (although it is essentially the same tune) yet there is a slight difference in the music. The cymbals are louder, and the instrument that plays the chords in Baby Park is an octave lower.

-'''Tilt-a-Kart''' is the final unlockable battle course in ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'' It is unlocked when the [[Flower Cup]] is beaten in [[Mario Kart (series)#Modes of play|Mirror Mode]]. Its name is likely a reference to the {{wp|Tilt-A-Whirl}} type of amusement park equipment.
-The course is simply a large platform made of tiles that together form the sprite of [[Small Mario]] from ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' The white tiles bordering this sprite will reduce the speed of the [[kart]] significantly. During a battle, the course will tilt gently from side to side, hindering the battle. [[Item Box]]es here are affected by gravity, and will fall down in the direction the course is tilting towards, similar to the [[Daisy Cruiser (GCN)|Daisy Cruiser]]'s dining room. This is the only battle course where the player can fall out; if they do, they are placed on a small white platform up above and must drive off it to land back onto the course.
-In battle modes other than [[Battle Mode#Shine Thief|Shine Thief]], a unique music track plays. It begins with a short motif from the [[Ground Theme (Super Mario Bros.)|Ground Theme]] from ''Super Mario Bros.''; the rest of the song is a remastered version of [[GCN Baby Park|Baby Park]]'s theme, with an addition of crash cymbals played throughout the music track, the backing piano chords being swapped for an organ, and said chords being in a lower inversion.
-The concept of a platform resembling this Mario sprite divided into tiles was later used in [[Toy Time Galaxy]] from ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and [[Mario Squared Galaxy]] from ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. The course's background also somewhat resembles that of the secret courses in [[The Secret of Ricco Tower]] and [[The Hotel Lobby's Secret]] from ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]''.
