Master Mission 3-8 in Mario Kart DS! Our guide helps you navigate the rooms and grab all 20 coins with expert tips and strategies. Don't miss a single one!

Alright, so Mission 3-8 in Mario Kart DS is all about one thing: collecting every single coin scattered across the map. You've got 20 to snag, and it's a bit of a maze, so pay close attention to where they're hiding!

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    You'll start out in the first room. Just go straight ahead to snag that very first coin (that's 1/20). Easy peasy.
  2. 2
    Head into the second room and make a left. There's another coin waiting for you there (2/20).
  3. 3
    Keep following the outer path. When you get to the next room, grab the coin right at the entrance (3/20).
  4. 4
    Quickly dart right into the room that looks blocked off. Grab the coin inside (4/20), but don't linger – you need to back out right away.
  5. 5
    Turn around and head out the opposite doorway. Again, stick to the outer path and grab the next coin you see (5/20).
  6. 6
    Watch out for a banana peel here! Veer into the room past it to find your next coin (6/20).
  7. 7
    As you enter the following room, aim for the left opening. Grab the coin as you go (7/20), and you'll find yourself back on the outer path.
  8. 8
    Take the corner coin (8/20) carefully. You'll want to slow down a bit around these corners to make sure you don't fall off the edge.
  9. 9
    After that, go straight ahead. You'll find coin (9/20) hiding behind another banana.
  10. 10
    Head into the room that coin was guarding. Move in a clockwise direction around the central block, and you'll pick up two more coins (10-11/20).
  11. 11
    Exit that room the same way you came in. Now, you'll grab two more coins (12-13/20) along the outer path. You'll need to swerve a bit to get around some lines of bananas here.
  12. 12
    Round the next corner and enter the following room. There's another coin waiting for you (14/20).
  13. 13
    Finally, you'll reach the last room. Go around in a circle here. You need to be quick, but not so fast that you miss them! You'll grab the last six coins (15-20/20) in this final sweep.
Tips
  • The key to this mission is smooth driving and knowing when to slow down, especially around corners and when navigating banana hazards.
  • Don't get greedy! Focus on hitting the coin path accurately rather than trying to grab everything at once and risking falling off or hitting a banana.
  • The final room requires a bit of practice to get all six coins efficiently. Don't get discouraged if you miss a few on your first try!
