Prior to the "new course" term being used, they were addressed by other terms based on the game they were derived from: in ''Mario Kart: Super Circuit'', the original tracks are called '''Super Circuit Tracks''' to distinguish them from the tracks originating from ''Super Mario Kart'', called Extra Tracks; in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'', the new courses are known as '''Nitro Courses''', derived from the project codename for the [[Nintendo DS]], Project Nitro; and in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'', the new courses are known as '''Wii Courses'''. Most new courses have gone on to later reappear in other ''Mario Kart'' games as [[classic course]]s. Starting with the DLC cups in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'', new courses can appear in the same cup as classic courses. | A '''new course'''<ref>Musa, Alexander (May 30, 2014).
