Starting with ''Mario Kart DS'', classic courses are distinguished by a prefix in their names indicating the game they originate from. These prefixes are mostly abbreviations of the name of the console that the game was released on: "SNES" ("SFC" in Japan)<ref name="JPprefix">[https://www.nintendo.co.jp/switch/aabpa/coursepack/index.html ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass'' official site].

The "Tour" prefix is excluded from the Tencent release of the ''Booster Course Pass'' in mainland China,<ref>{{cite|language=zh-hans|url=www.nintendoswitch.com.cn/mario_kart_8_deluxe/coursepack|title=马力欧卡丁车8 豪华版 {{!}} Nintendo Switch {{!}} 任天堂 {{!}} 腾讯|publisher=Nintendo|accessdate=June 25, 2024}}</ref> likely due to ''Mario Kart Tour''{{'}}s unavailability on app distribution platforms in that region.
Starting with ''Mario Kart DS'', classic courses are distinguished by a prefix in their names indicating the game they originate from. These prefixes are mostly abbreviations of the name of the console that the game was released on: "SNES" refers to ''[[Super Mario Kart]]'', "N64" to ''[[Mario Kart 64]]'', "GBA" to ''Mario Kart: Super Circuit'', "GCN" to ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'', "DS" to ''Mario Kart DS'', "Wii" to ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'', "3DS" to ''Mario Kart 7'', and "Tour" to ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'' (only for city courses).


Prior to ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'', classic courses were often near-identical to their original counterparts, usually only receiving graphical updates, such as expanding the space and blocks in SNES and GBA courses. In ''Mario Kart DS'', however, some classic courses were scaled down in graphics and gameplay elements due to limitations of the [[Nintendo DS]], most notably those originally from ''Mario Kart: Double Dash!!''. In ''Mario Kart Wii'' and ''Mario Kart 7'', classic courses appear almost identical to their original versions, besides added [[underwater driving|underwater]] and gliding sections in the latter game. Starting in ''Mario Kart 8'', most classic courses are completely redesigned with HD graphics, usually featuring newer mechanics such as underwater, gliding, and (except in ''Mario Kart Tour'') [[anti-gravity]]. They also tend to feature other new details, including completely new backgrounds or even changes to the track's layout. Additionally, ''Mario Kart 8'' features newly remastered music for all classic courses, whereas classic courses in previous ''Mario Kart'' games tend to retain their original music (though they were sometimes altered due to system limitations, primarily for the [[Game Boy Advance]] and Nintendo DS). ''Mario Kart Tour''{{'}}s classic courses vary in similarity to their original versions, with some closely approximating the original courses and others making changes more in line with the overhauls seen in ''Mario Kart 8''. The music is almost always either the original arrangement or from ''Mario Kart 7'', with the only exceptions being the [[Choco Island|SNES Choco Island]] courses, which use the ''Mario Kart DS'' arrangement; the [[Ghost Valley|SNES Ghost Valley]] courses, [[GBA Cheep-Cheep Island]], and [[DS Peach Gardens]], which use the ''Mario Kart Wii'' arrangements; and GBA courses barring Peach Circuit, Luigi Circuit, the Bowser's Castle courses, Cheep-Cheep Island, and Lakeside Park, as well as [[DS Mario Circuit]], which all use new arrangements (although the reused music is less compressed than in previous games).

''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'' features 72 courses from previous entries (over half of all courses in the entire series prior to ''Mario Kart 8''), being the most of any ''Mario Kart'' game. Among them, all of ''Mario Kart 7''{{'}}s classic courses reappear. It also features a new reroute of N64 Kalimari Desert named N64 Kalimari Desert 2, which is categorized as a classic course in-game. Courses in ''Mario Kart Tour'' are not arranged into set cups like in the other games, as the cups and available courses change between each [[List of tours in Mario Kart Tour|tour]].

Courses highlighted in red have yet to appear as classic courses in a later ''Mario Kart'' installment. SNES courses highlighted in blue have yet to reappear as a classic course outside of ''Mario Kart: Super Circuit'', which features all of ''Super Mario Kart'''s courses. Courses highlighted in pink are considered to be new courses for multiple games, and have yet to appear as classic courses. A dash (–) indicates that the course appears as a new course in its respective game and therefore cannot appear as a classic course in it or, unless noted otherwise, in a previous installment.
