[edit] Appearance in Super Mario Kart
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 or she will find the only set of item boxes in the course. There is also a major shortcut a racer can take by driving through the dirt right after passing the item boxes. The player will need either a Mushroom or a Star to successfully implement the shortcut without slowing down. Taking the shortcut without an item does not take more time than following the course though.
[edit] Appearance in Mario Kart Super Circuit
Mario Circuit 1 appeared in Mario Kart Super Circuit, and is the first track in the Extra Mushroom Cup. It uses the background from Mario Circuit's Super Circuit rendition. The pipe hazards were removed from the track, but an item box can be found in the shortcut.
[edit] Appearance in Mario Kart DS
Mario Circuit 1 is the first course in the Shell Cup in Mario Kart DS. This level is relatively short as it has only three laps instead of five, and it usually takes the average player about a minute to complete the track. Mission 1-8 in this game takes place at Mario Circuit 1. This course is available in Wi-Fi.

[edit] Official Descriptions
- Official website: “Pulled straight from the SNES version of Super Mario Kart, this narrow track is further complicated by the pipes that protrude from its surface.”
- Official European website: “The one that started it all. The first track from the original Super Mario kart has a simple layout but don’t let that fool you. Veteran racers know that pixel-perfect precision is needed to negotiate this track’s turns without hitting the pipes jutting from the ground.”
