Mario Circuit 1, Mario Circuit 2, Mario Circuit 3, and Mario Circuit 4 all return as retro courses in Mario Kart: Super Circuit, along with a new arrangement of the "Mario Circuit" theme. This arrangement is similar to the original, but it adds some chiptune instrumentation and uses lower-quality synthetic instruments.

Mario Kart DS[edit]
SNES Mario Circuit 1 returns as a retro course in Mario Kart DS along with an arrangement of the "Mario Circuit" theme very faithful to the original.
File info |
Mario Kart 7[edit]
SNES Mario Circuit 2 returns as a retro course in Mario Kart 7 along with an arrangement of the "Mario Circuit" theme. This arrangement uses higher quality samples, but it is otherwise almost identical to the SNES Mario Circuit 3 arrangement from Mario Kart Wii.
This arrangement returns for this track as well as SNES Mario Circuit 1, SNES Mario Circuit 3, and RMX Mario Circuit 1 in Mario Kart Tour.
File info |
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe[edit]
SNES Mario Circuit 3 was added as a retro course to Mario Kart 8 Deluxe in Wave 2 of the Booster Course Pass along with an arrangement of "Mario Circuit". This arrangement adds piano accompaniment and drum kit percussion to the theme, but it is otherwise almost identical to the original.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl features an electro house arrangement of the theme as a playable track, titled "Mario Circuit", and incorporates the starting grid countdown theme used to signal the start of the race in Super Mario Kart. It can be played on the Mario Circuit stage.
