| | '''Mario Circuit''' is the third race course in the [[Star Cup]] in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]''. The course is a reminiscent to the ''Mario Kart: Double Dash!!'' version, albeit being longer than its predecessor. As in ''Double Dash'', the course surrounds Princess Peach's Castle, while in the background a wide country with warp pipes around can be seen. In the course enemies appear acting as obstacles: Goombas appear crossing the road to and from the sides. By shooting a [[Koopa Shell]] at them, or using a [[Star]], Mushrooms spawn from the Goombas. A pair of [[Venus Fire Trap]]s spit [[fireball]]s at the course. The victim will spin out of control when touching one. Typical Piranha Plants, as seen in ''[[Mario Kart 64]]'', are also present. |

| '''Mario Circuit''' is the third race course of the [[Star Cup]] in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]''. This track shares its music and Grand Prix introduction fanfare with [[Figure-8 Circuit]], as well as sharing the latter with [[DS Waluigi Pinball|Waluigi Pinball]] and {{classic-link|GCN|Luigi Circuit}}. This is the first Mario Circuit to appear in the Star Cup since [[Mario Circuit 4]] in ''[[Super Mario Kart]]'', and is also the only [[New course|nitro]] Mario Circuit to be the third course of a cup.
| |
|
| |
|
| Mario Circuit reappears in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'' starting with the [[Mario Tour (2023)|2023 Mario Tour]], and in ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass]]'' as the second course of the [[Boomerang Cup]].
| | ==Course layout== |
| | Characters start out the race near a lake surrounding the [[Princess Peach's Castle|Castle]]. After going through the first corner, Goombas wandering on the middle of the track will try to block the racers' path. After passing by these enemies, characters run along a piece of the lake. Due to that part having no security fence, players can fall off into water. Continuing the path, two Venus Fire Traps located in a S bend will spit fireballs to the course to burn the drivers. Going through a Warp Pipe-modeled bridge, the players reach a soil road after taking a tight turn. The track's soil can cause some karts to go off of course, especially on corners. Crossing over the Pipe bridge, the racers go down on a curly track with Piranha Plants. Past this, characters then continue running over concrete road. After taking a tight S turn, players cross the checked line. |

| ===Course layout===
| | The levels 5-8 and 7-4 take place on this circuit in [[Mario Kart DS#Mission Mode|Mission Mode]]. During the mission 5-8, [[Luigi]] has to compete against [[Mario]] to reach the finish line in a lap. In mission 7-4, [[Toad]] must get rid of every Goomba found in a part of the course, provided with [[Green Shell]]s from the [[Item Box]]es. |

| Characters start out the race near a lake surrounding [[Peach's Castle]]. After going through the first corner, [[Goomba]]s wandering on the middle of the track will try to block the racers' path. The right side of the tracks lacks railings, which racers can fall off of into a the moat of the castle. Continuing the path, two [[Fire Piranha Plant]]s located in a S bend will spit fireballs on the track. The Fire Piranha Plants alternate between a few directions as to where they spit fireballs. Going through a Warp Pipe-modeled tunnel, the racers are met with a tight turn. Shortly after, the asphalt track turns into a dirt track where the racers have to take another tight turn. After that, the racers go down a wavy path where Peach's Castle entrance is located and where there are [[Piranha Plant]]s reminiscent of those in ''[[Mario Kart 64]]''. Racers might want to be careful here since the dirt makes for a slippery experience which might make them run into the Piranha Plants. Finally, the dirt track ends and the racers have to take a final S-turn which takes them back to the starting line.

| |
| Mario Circuit makes its classic course debut in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', first appearing in the [[Mario Tour (2023)|2023 Mario Tour]]. The course has received many visual improvements since its appearance in ''Mario Kart DS''. While it is mostly faithful to the layout of the original, the course is not remade in a 1:1 scale - most notably, the section after the pipe tunnel has been made far larger than its DS counterpart, and the straightaway housing the starting line is now slightly angled. The lake containing Peach's Castle, that now has the same design as in the ''Mario Kart Tour'' iteration of 3DS Mario Circuit, is noticeably smaller and now resembles a simple moat, and the roads on either side are much closer together as a consequence of this. There is now off-road between the main track and the lake. The section after the Fire Piranha Plants has now been changed into a brief forest section, and a ramp has been added at the end of the section. The wavy dirt turns alongside Peach's Castle have been changed to a more elongated S-turn, and they curve to the right first as well. More elevation has been added to the course, which is mostly noticeable with the S-turn at the end. The dirt path continues for a bit longer into the track than in ''Mario Kart DS''. The starting banner is now designed with Mario's hat atop and features the modern ''Mario Kart'' logo.
| |
| | |
| In the R variant, several small pipes appear along the track as ramps. In the T variant, one of the [[Fire Piranha Plant]]s is gone, and there is a [[Glide Ramp|glide ramp]] at the end of the forest section. In the R/T variant, both Fire Piranha Plants are gone, and there are instead normal [[Piranha Plant]]s. There is also a glide ramp towards the end of the track.
| |
| | |
| The ''Mario Kart Tour'' iteration was the final DS course added to the game, and the only DS course to make its classic course debut in the game. The course also appears as '''Mario Circuit R''' (reversed), '''Mario Circuit T''' (with ramps), and '''Mario Circuit R/T''' (reversed with ramps). Mario Circuit is the first course of its title to appear in ''Mario Kart Tour'' since [[RMX Mario Circuit 1]] in the [[Mario Bros. Tour]] seventy-nine tours prior, and is the second Mario Circuit in the game to not be, or be based on, a SNES iteration, after [[3DS Mario Circuit]], which was added ninety tours prior in the [[Tokyo Tour]]. The music arrangement is slightly different to how it sounded in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'', which makes this course the only classic course in ''Mario Kart Tour'' to receive a new arrangement for its music that is not from ''[[Mario Kart: Super Circuit]]''; however, unlike most of the GBA arrangements, the theme retains most of its instrumentation. The internal name for the course's skybox refers to a course labeled "N64mr", corresponding to [[N64 Mario Raceway]]; this predated any official announcement of N64 Mario Raceway being added to ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]''. However, the two courses seemingly use two separate skyboxes.

| [[File:MK8D DS Mario Circuit Scene.jpg|250px|thumb|The course in ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'']]
| |
| Mario Circuit appears again in ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' as the second course of the [[Boomerang Cup]], and as such was added in the fourth wave of the DLC. The course uses its appearance from ''Mario Kart Tour'', with major visual upgrades. A [[Wiggler]] has been added to the forest section of the course - it sleeps for approximately one minute and 27 seconds before waking up and beginning to move, meaning racers are most likely to encounter it on the final lap (it can be encountered on the second lap if the 50cc class is selected, or not at all in 200cc). It walks down to where the first turn of the forest section begins, loops around in the offroad, and continues back before eventually leaving the course entirely. The forest section of the course also now has much darker grass. A set of Item Boxes outside Peach's Castle has been moved. There are less flowers outside of Peach's Castle compared to its ''Mario Kart Tour'' iteration. The spiral design on the trees' trunks has been removed. The yellow pipe after the first turn has been removed and the yellow and blue pipes near the S-turn have been made smaller to extend a fence. The minimap has been rotated by 90 degrees counterclockwise. This course is one of three in the Booster Course Pass to not have its minimap rotated so that drivers start facing straight up on it, the other two being {{classic-link|DS|Shroom Ridge}} and {{classic-link|Wii|DK Summit}}.
| |
| | |
| This course is the second [[Mario Circuit]] course in the ''Booster Course Pass'', after {{classic-link|SNES|Mario Circuit 3}}, and the third circuit course in the pass overall, after {{classic-link|3DS|Toad Circuit}} and {{classic|SNES|Mario Circuit 3}}. Despite first being announced for ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'' a day before its ''Mario Kart Tour'' announcement, it would debut in ''Mario Kart Tour'' before the release of Wave 4, giving this course the distinction of having the shortest gap between classic course appearances, with only a 19-hour gap; beating the previous course with this distinction, {{classic-link|DS|Peach Gardens}}, by six days. Mario Circuit's inclusion in Wave 4 coincides with the wave's release date being near [[Mario Day]]. Due to time zones, in some regions, it is the only retro course in the series to debut in multiple games in one day.<ref>{{cite|author=GameXplain|date=March 7, 2023|url=youtu.be/l9L6ftPBxGM|title=Here's the EXACT TIME Mario Kart's Wave 4 DLC Goes LIVE TOMORROW! (Yep, TOMORROW!)|publisher=YouTube|language=en|accessdate=March 8, 2023}}</ref> Internally, Mario Circuit is referred to as "Cnsw_43", implying it may have originally been intended to be the third course of the [[Fruit Cup]].

| * In descriptions given by [[Nintendo]] for all of the Wave 4 courses, Mario Circuit was mistakenly described with elements from the [[3DS Mario Circuit|Mario Circuit]] of ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'', with the course being said to have "blossoming trees" (referring to the cherry blossoms in that course) and taking racers through a winding path into Peach's Castle. The course does not feature a route with "blossoming trees" or a route inside Peach's Castle; instead, a fence is present in front of the castle entrance, the castle doors are shut, and the castle bridge only comes up to the offroad.<ref>{{cite|url=www.polygon.com/23621879/mario-kart-8-deluxe-switch-booster-course-dlc-4-release-date|author=McWhertor, Michael|date=March 2, 2023|title=Mario Kart 8’s new Birdo and Yoshi’s Island DLC arrive next week|publisher=Polygon|language=en|accessdate=August 1, 2024}}</ref> | | *This is the second Mario Circuit that has been in the Star Cup, the first being [[Mario Circuit 4]] in ''[[Super Mario Kart]]''. |
