Mario Hoops 3-on-3
Mario Stadium is a court in Mario Hoops 3-on-3. It is the first court in the Mushroom Tourney and the game. A basic court with no gimmicks, this stadium is a good choice for a game of pure basketball. It looks just like a regular stadium, complete with stands, a big screen, and some banners on the sides that has the Square Enix logo, and the Nintendo logo. There is an audience of Shy Guys, Goombas, Piantas and Toads cheering for the players. It is also where all the tutorials are held, and in this mode, the stadium has different music. Interestingly, the music used in the Mario Stadium is also used in Glare Desert.

Mario Sports Mix
The same court also appears in Mario Sports Mix in which the player can play all four sports there, and this is also where all of the tutorial movies take place so players can learn how to play all of these sports. The arena can be a basketball court, an ice hockey rink, a dodgeball court, or a volleyball court. The crowd is also in the arena, cheering for the teams during a match. In Bob-omb Dodge, it is one of three courts that the players must avoid Bob-ombs there.
