| '''Mario Circuit''' is the first race course of the [[Flower Cup]] in ''[[Mario Kart: Super Circuit]]''. It shares its music with [[GBA Peach Circuit|Peach Circuit]] and [[GBA Luigi Circuit|Luigi Circuit]]. It reappears in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' as the second course of the [[Shell Cup]].
| |
|
| |
|
| ==''Mario Kart: Super Circuit''==
| | '''Mario Circuit''' from ''[[Mario Kart: Super Circuit]]'' is part of the [[Flower Cup]] as the first race course. This Mario Circuit is a rather plain stage and short in length, with few obstacles and [[Item Box]]es to deal against rivals. It contains winding paths, however, such as a hairpin bend, or a curl path found before the home stretch. Next to the checked line there is a detour where racers can get a speed boost by running onto a [[Boost Pad]] located there. Also all of the Mario Circuits from SNES game reappear as retro courses. Mario Circuit will also be a Retro Track in the game ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' |
| ===Course layout===
| |
| The course begins with a left turn followed by a slight right turn and the first set of [[Item Box]]es. There is then two straightaways, with a U-turn to the left in between. Racers then take a right turn followed by a left turn and another item set; in between the two turns, there is a lone Item Box to the left of the track. After several slight turns, a left turn, and a slight right turn, racers reach the finish line. Near the finish line, racers have the option to take a narrow path to the right of the track, which contains a [[Dash Panel|speed strip]].

| Mario Circuit makes its classic course debut in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' as the second course of the [[Shell Cup]]. Much like {{classic-link|GBA|Bowser's Castle 1|Bowser Castle 1}} in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'', this is the only GBA track in the base ''Mario Kart 8'' content. It now features a starting banner with the classic ''Mario Kart'' logo in red, black-and-white tires around the posts, various stacked tires and advertisements, and wooden huts both filled with [[Toad (species)|Toad]] and [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] spectators and oil cans. The large U-turn near the beginning of the track is slanted and separated from the track to act as an [[anti-gravity]] section. This section is balanced on what appear to be giant car jacks (which are named "Ultra Arm", a reference to the {{wp|Ultra Hand}}), which can be seen rising to lift the section into its position in the course's preview, with many large [[Brick Block]]s and [[Empty Block]]s visible in the pit where the U-turn was originally. There are also [[oil slick]]s near the end of the track that cause players who collide with them to spin out, alongside some [[traffic cone]]s that are knocked away when players collide with them. The detour near the finish line also contains an added [[Item Box]] in addition to the [[Dash Panel]]. Compared to the original, the road is also slightly banked through the curves.

| | |
| The music has been modified to a slightly lower pitch and plays in A#/B♭ major on the first two laps and then in B major on the final lap, as opposed to C major in the original. Overall, the arrangement appears to be based on that of the ''Mario Kart: Super Circuit'' prototype.<ref>[https://youtu.be/XiqyXTgvYR0?t=682 E3 2001 Gamestore VHS Messevideo 1 of 2 Trade Show Video - YouTube]</ref>

| This rendition of the course was shown in a [[GLA]] commercial cross-promoting the car and ''Mario Kart 8'', albeit with a more realistic approach, featuring the raised hairpin turn in the background.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=67QxyKWc0Wc Super Mario Kart 8 - Mercedes-Benz Commercial #2 - Wii U]</ref>

| |
| *The course was originally known as '''Big Tree Circuit''' and was in the [[Mushroom Cup]] in an early prototype of ''Mario Kart: Super Circuit'', and also had a different musical arrangement not present in the final build.
