The name Mario Circuit is first given to four tracks in ''[[Super Mario Kart]]''. In the original Japanese versions, it goes on to be used for one track in every mainline game. It is one of three track names with this property, alongside [[Bowser's Castle#Mario Kart series|Bowser's Castle]] and [[Rainbow Road]]. However, the English version of ''[[Mario Kart 64]]'' names its version of the track '''Mario Raceway''' instead, which ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'' maintains.
Mario Circuit is a recurring name first given to four tracks in ''[[Super Mario Kart]]''. In the original Japanese versions, it goes on to be used for one track in every mainline game. It is one of four track names that are reused in more than two courses and consistently appear in many ''Mario Kart'' games, alongside [[Luigi Circuit]], [[Bowser's Castle#Mario Kart series|Bowser's Castle]], and [[Rainbow Road]].

In ''[[Mario Kart 64]]'', all circuit courses are known as raceways. Thus, instead of using Mario Circuit, ''Mario Kart 64'' uses Mario Raceway instead.
