Balloon Battle debuted in ''[[Super Mario Kart]]'' and has appeared in all console installments since then. In this mode, players must use items to hit the opposing player to pop one of the three balloons. If all balloons are popped, the player is out and termed as "sidelined." Later installments change the mechanics, such as being based on balloons popped rather than being the last man standing. | Balloon Battle debuted in ''[[Super Mario Kart]]'' and has appeared in all console installments since then.

''[[Mario Kart 64]]'', ''[[Mario Kart: Super Circuit]]'', and ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'' have four-player support, allowing up to four players to battle, unlike ''[[Super Mario Kart]]'', where it is limited to two players. The latter game's LAN Mode even allows up to eight players (sixteen with Co-op Play) to play in Battle Mode. In ''Mario Kart 64'' and ''Mario Kart: Super Circuit'', once a player loses all of their balloons, they turn into a [[Mini Bomb Kart]] or a [[Bob-omb]], respectively. In this form, they can ram into other players to blow them up and | ''[[Mario Kart 64]]'', ''[[Mario Kart: Super Circuit]]'', and ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'' have four-player support, allowing up to four players to battle, unlike ''[[Super Mario Kart]]'', where it is limited to two players.

''[[Mario Kart DS]]'' has a few changes to Balloon Battle. For the first time, it can be played in single-player, unlike the previous four games, which require being in multiplayer to play. The player also starts out with one balloon instead of three, and more can be blown by holding {{button|gba|select}} or by blowing into the {{button|DS|Mic}}. There are four balloons in reserve (five in total), and the kart has to be stopped before blowing another balloon. The player can only choose the [[Standard Kart]] in this mode. In this game, there are eight different colors the balloons can be. Those colors are blue, cyan, green, orange, pink, purple, red, and yellow. | ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'' has a few changes to Balloon Battle.
