Gallery:Sponsors in the Mario Kart series

During the various Mario Kart races held by Mario and his fellow racers, sponsors can be seen.

Mario Kart 64

The Japanese version of Mario Kart 64 features several sponsors whose names and logos are puns on real companies. These sponsors are "Luigip" (pun on Agip), "Marioro" (Marlboro), and "Yoshi 1" (Mobil 1). Also, the Japanese version of the "Koopa Air" logo has the color scheme of Goodyear's. These were taken out in the English version, presumably to prevent lawsuits of the companies (and tobacco references in the case of "Marioro").

The "Shot!" logo, even in the American version, seems to bear some resemblance to that of Shell, largely due to the similarity of the names (it can also be considered a pun that the logo is a Koopa shell, though Shell's logo is a stylized seashell).

The "Mario Star" logo also appears on the banner above the finish line of the Mario Circuit stage in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, now reading "Mario Circuit" instead of just "Mario".

"Shy Guy Metals", as seen on some banners, is a Shy Guy mining business taking place in the Shy Guy Falls course. The banner also reads "since 1987", possibly referencing the launch year of Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic, the game that introduces Shy Guys.
