'''Mario Circuit 1''' is the first course of the [[Mushroom Cup]] in ''[[Super Mario Kart]]''. The only hazard in this level are the pipes that appear near the 2nd turn of the course. After the player passes the pipes, he finds the only set of items in the course. There's also a major shortcut a racer can take by going through the dirt right after he passes the item set. The player will need either a [[Mushroom]] or a [[Star]] to go on the shortcut without slowing down.

'''Mario Circuit 1''' is the introductory track of ''[[Super Mario Kart]]'', serving as the first course of the [[Mushroom Cup]] and, as such, the first course in the ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]'' series in general. It was later reused as the first [[Classic course#Mario Kart: Super Circuit|Extra Course]] in ''[[Mario Kart: Super Circuit]]'' and the first [[classic course]] in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'' as the first race of the [[Shell Cup]], being the first retro track in the series. It later reappears in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', starting with the [[New York Tour]].


Mario Circuit 1 shares its music with the other three Mario Circuits in the game: [[SNES Mario Circuit 2|2]], [[SNES Mario Circuit 3|3]], and [[Mario Circuit 4|4]]. It was arranged in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'' as a track that can be heard on the [[Figure-8 Circuit (stage)|Mario Circuit]] stage. The arrangement is also in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', where it can be played in any ''Mario Kart'' series stage as well as [[Battlefield]], Big Battlefield, Small Battlefield and [[Final Destination]] as of the version 8.1.0 update.
Mario Circuit 1 also appeared in ''[[Mario Kart: Super Circuit]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart DS]]''. In ''Mario Kart Super Circuit'', Mario Circuit 1 uses the background from [[Peach Circuit]]. The pipe hazard were removed from that track but later reappeared in ''DS'' version. An item box can be found in the shortcut of the ''Super Circuit'' version. In ''Mario Kart DS'', this level is pretty short due to having only 3 laps instead of 5 and it usually takes the average player to finish the track about a minute.

[[Category: Race Courses]]
===Course layout===
[[Category: Places]]
[[File:SMK Mario Circuit 1 Screenshot.png|thumb|left|[[Mario]] racing on the course]]
Mario Circuit 1 consists of a simple paved road with sand on both sides that can slow down racers. Outside of the course lies a grassland with trees and hills in the background. The course begins with a left turn followed by a straightaway. Racers then encounter a left turn with several [[Warp Pipe|pipes]], which serve as this course's only hazard. After racers pass the pipes, they reach the only set of [[? Panel]]s in the course. After taking a sharp left turn followed by a sharp right turn, there is one last left turn as racers reach the finish line.
 
===Shortcuts===
A notable shortcut can be found just after the ? Panels. After taking the subsequent left turn, the player can use a [[Dash Mushroom|Mushroom]] or [[Super Star|Star]] to drive through the off-road to the right of the track, cutting off the sharp right turn. However, taking the shortcut without an item does not take more time than following the course.

==''Mario Kart: Super Circuit''==
[[File:MKSC SNES Mario Circuit 1.png|thumb|right|[[Princess Peach|Peach]] racing on the course: note the lack of pipes.]]
Mario Circuit 1 reappears in ''Mario Kart: Super Circuit'', and is the first track of the [[Classic course#Mario Kart: Super Circuit|Extra Mushroom Cup]]. It uses the background from [[GBA Peach Circuit|Peach Circuit]]. The pipe hazards were removed from the track, but an [[Item Box]] can be found in the shortcut.
{{br|left}}
 
==''Mario Kart DS''==
[[File:MKDS Mario Circuit 1.png|thumb|left|Mario Circuit 1 in ''Mario Kart DS'']]
Mario Circuit 1 reappears as the first course of the [[Shell Cup]] in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'', as well as the first retro course in the series overall. Like every other ''Super Mario Kart'' track in ''Mario Kart DS'', it only has three laps instead of five. It retains the same hazards as in ''Super Mario Kart'', though it is a bit longer as well. This course was available online until the [[Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection]] was terminated on May 20, 2014.
 
On the ''Mario Kart DS'' website, the gameplay video of <small>SNES</small> Mario Circuit 1 shows {{classic link|GBA|Peach Circuit}} instead.<ref>Dark Doctor (July 9, 2020). [https://youtu.be/yvrS7ygGMJw?t=274 Mario Kart DS official website]. ''YouTube''. Retrieved February 18, 2023.</ref>
 
===Missions===
There is one [[Mario Kart DS#Missions|mission]] that takes place on Mario Circuit 1:
*'''Mission 1-8''': The player controls [[Mario]], who must perform 4 [[Drift|power-slide]] [[Mini-Turbo|mini-turbos]] before completing one lap and before 45 seconds has passed.
{{br}}
 
==''Mario Kart Tour''==
[[File:MarioCircuit1SNESMKT.jpg|thumb|The course in ''Mario Kart Tour'']]
Mario Circuit 1 makes a return in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', starting with the [[New York Tour]]. It retains its ''Mario Kart DS'' layout. The two pipes on the right after the third turn were moved onto the right edge of the track itself. The hills and trees in the background are now in 3D. The course now has a starting banner with the classic ''Mario Kart'' logo.
 
Unlike most of the SNES courses, Mario Circuit 1 reuses ''Mario Kart 7''{{'}}s arrangement for {{classic link|SNES|Mario Circuit 2}}, instead of the original music from ''Super Mario Kart''.
 
The course also appears as  '''Mario Circuit 1R''' (reversed), '''Mario Circuit 1T''' (with ramps), and '''Mario Circuit 1R/T''' (reversed with ramps); the first two were introduced alongside the normal variant in the [[New York Tour]], while the last was introduced in the [[Holiday Tour (2019)|2019 Holiday Tour]]. In the R variant, [[oil slick]]s and [[traffic cone]]s are now present as well as a [[Glide Ramp|glide ramp]]. In the R/T variant, all of the aforementioned additions are retained, there are now pipes with air currents following both glide ramps, and the shortcut through the sand now has [[Dash Panel|dash panels]].
 
Prior to the [[Paris Tour (2019)|2019 Paris Tour]], no driver had SNES Mario Circuit 1R listed as a favorite course; instead, its appearance in the [[Peach Cup]] in the New York Tour relied on the cup bonus to raise Peach to the top tier.

==Trivia==
*A sped-up arrangement of the music can be heard in the 1994 electro-mechanical arcade game ''[[Super Mario Kart: Doki Doki Race]]'', accompanied by new background notes and an ending note. The track is also similar to Mario Circuit 1, only the characters are racing on it in the opposite direction, and the start line is placed at the top.<ref>Super Mario Wiki (October 31, 2015).
