The '''Spiny Cup''' is a [[cup]] that appears in ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' as part of the ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass|Booster Course Pass]]'' DLC. It is the second of two cups in the sixth and final wave of the DLC, being released alongside the [[Acorn Cup]], the twelfth and final cup of the pass overall, and the twenty-fourth and final cup of the game overall. The emblem of the cup is a [[Spiny Shell (blue)|Spiny Shell]], making the Spiny Cup one of the two cups in ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'' to have a kind of shell as its emblem, alongside the [[Shell Cup]]. Like most cups in the pass, it only features [[classic course]]s, ending with a [[Bowser's Castle]] and [[Rainbow Road]] course similarly to every [[Special Cup]] since ''[[Mario Kart: Super Circuit]]'', making it the only classic course cup to do so. It is the first cup since the [[Moon Cup]] to not end on a course without a prefix or a ''Mario Kart Tour'' course, and the first cup since the [[Rock Cup]] to only feature one prefix-less or ''Mario Kart Tour'' course. It is also the only cup in ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'' to have a course originally from ''[[Super Mario Kart]]'' that is not the second course in the cup. The decorations on this cup's [[trophy]] are purple.

==Trivia==
[[File:MK8 Unused DLC Icons.PNG|thumb|The unused Spiny Shell cup icon (far right)]]
*A cup based on the Spiny Shell was [[List of Mario Kart 8 pre-release and unused content|originally going to appear]] as DLC in the original ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' for the [[Wii U]], but that cup was replaced for unknown reasons by the [[Bell Cup]] in the final game.
*In the [[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe#Pre-release and unused content|game's data]], the filenames for {{classic-link|Tour|Madrid Drive}}, {{classic-link|3DS|Rosalina's Ice World}}, and {{classic-link|SNES|Bowser Castle 3}} all imply that they were originally set for different placements in the pass (the first course of the [[Feather Cup]], the third course of the Spiny Cup (which originally did not have a prefix assigned to it), and the third course of the [[Cherry Cup]] respectively). Internal data also suggests that {{classic-link|Tour|Athens Dash}} (which is the first course of the Feather Cup in the final version) was intended to be the first course of this cup. The second course also originally had the "[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!|GCN]]" prefix attached to it, but was later replaced by {{classic-link|Wii|Daisy Circuit}} (which is the third course of the [[Acorn Cup]] in the final version) instead.
