People say that MKW's Rainbow Road sounds like Good Egg Galaxy

Someone said it's between the 24th to 36th seconds of the song. I still don't notice any similarity, and I usually notice similarities with video game music.

The main theme is part of the background melody. It's kinda hard to hear.

well there are star bits and launch stars so this is another SMG reference in rainbow road

Parts of the music were inspired by Super Mario Galaxy's "Good Egg Galaxy" music. Makes sense to me here.

That's probably the most noticeable one but there are more.

Oh, now I notice it, and I know why I never noticed it before.

And the other factor is that even though this "version" is different, some instrument elements almost SOUND like what you'd hear from the Mario Galaxy Orchestra, if I'm not mistaken.
