The logo consists of company name written in an italicized all-capitals font with a purple and blue gradient on a white background. In Japan, the logo uses a different color scheme with yellow text and a dark blue background. This resembles the {{Wp|Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company|Goodyear}} logo, which was a major {{Wp|Formula One}} advertiser at the time, albeit without any logo substituting for the Mercury's foot logo from the original. It is advertised by means of trackside banners and signs. | ||

'''Mario Star''' (known as '''Marioro''' in Japan) is a sponsor that appears in ''[[Mario Kart 64]]''. The logo consists of the company name written in an all-capitals blue font on a white background with a red line above and below the text. The Japanese logo is based on that of {{wp|Marlboro (cigarette)|Marlboro}}, which was a major {{wp|Formula One|Formula 1}} advertiser when the game was released, and also where the Japanese name comes from. It consists of the company name in a black serif font on a white background, with a red rectangle with a triangle shape removed from the top on the right, an inverted version of the Marlboro logo. It is advertised by means of signs and trackside banners. A Mario Star sign also appears on both courses of [[Slot-Car Derby|Slot Car Derby]] in ''[[Mario Party]]'', even in the Japanese version, though the font is changed to that of the | '''Mario Star''' (known as '''Marioro''' in Japan) is a sponsor that appears in ''[[Mario Kart 64]]''.

'''Shot!''' is a sponsor that appears in ''[[Mario Kart 64]]''. The sponsor's logo appears to be based on that of the company {{wp|Royal Dutch Shell|Shell}}, which was a major {{wp|Formula One}} advertiser at the time the game was released, using a similar simplistic font and color scheme for the shell. The logo consists of the company name written in a black font on a white background, with a 2D image of a [[Yellow Shell]] with a red outline and bottom, white rim and yellow top. It is advertised by means of trackside banners and signs. Later games replace it with the [[List of sponsors debuting in Mario Kart: Double Dash!!#Shoot!!|Shoot!!]] sponsor. | '''Shot!''' is a sponsor that appears in ''[[Mario Kart 64]]''.
