'''Peach Circuit''' is the first course of the [[Mushroom Cup]] in ''[[Mario Kart: Super Circuit]]'' and reappeared as a retro track in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]''.
'''Peach Circuit''' is the introductory track of ''[[Mario Kart: Super Circuit]]'', serving as the first race of the [[Mushroom Cup]]. [[Peach's Castle]] prominently appears in the background of this course. This track shares its music with [[GBA Mario Circuit|Mario Circuit]] and [[GBA Luigi Circuit|Luigi Circuit]].  


==Course layout==
Peach Circuit reappears in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'' as the third race of the [[Shell Cup]], and in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'' starting with the [[Princess Tour]].
Originally [[Princess Peach]]'s personal track, it is consist being relatively short with very few obstacles. However, it contains a plenty of curves suited to use [[drifting]]. The course has 2 sets of [[Item Box]]es and a lot of [[coin]]s scattered on the road. Following the coins pattern found in the curves, the user can employ drifting to run over them and take them all in a row.

Racers then take a U-turn to the left followed by a brief straight and a 90° turn to the right. Another brief straight then brings racers to the finish line.

Peach Circuit makes its [[classic course]] debut in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'' as the third course of the [[Shell Cup]]. The course mostly remains identical to its original appearance. However, like other GBA courses seen in the game, it shows an enhanced graphical look. Peach's Castle in the background is mirrored in the 50cc, 100cc, and 150cc engine classes; but faces in the same way like in the original appearance in the 150cc Mirror engine class. The course also used to be available on Wi-Fi in VS mode.

Peach Circuit returns in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'' starting from the [[Princess Tour]]. It has received a significant overhaul, with drastic changes to the aesthetics. Peach's Castle in the background uses the design from the ''Mario Kart Tour'' iteration of [[3DS Mario Circuit]]. A starting line banner has been added, featuring the classic ''Mario Kart'' logo with Peach's crown above it and two castle towers flanking it. [[Toad House]]s now appear in the background, as well as blocky mountains, mushrooms, and waterfalls. The bottom portion of the course now borders an ocean, with a lake also now present in its center. Elevation has been added to the course layout. The track overall has been shrunken down somewhat, most notably with the final turn, which is a fair bit shorter.

Unlike the other GBA courses in ''Mario Kart Tour'', the course uses a restored version of its original music from ''Mario Kart: Super Circuit'', albeit with enhanced percussion. Notably, it heavily resembles a version of the song used in a 2002 Japanese commercial for the {{wp|Nagoya Expressway}} Public Corporation based on ''Mario Kart: Super Circuit''.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KeHmKVHOsJw&ab_channel=MrJonathanJoester</ref> This arrangement is also used for [[GBA Luigi Circuit]] in ''Mario Kart Tour''.

The course also appears as '''Peach Circuit R''' (reversed), '''Peach Circuit T''' (with ramps), and '''Peach Circuit R/T''' (reversed with ramps). In the R variant, a [[Glide Ramp|glide ramp]] allows racers to cut off a turn halfway through the track. In the T and R/T variants, [[Mushroom Trampoline|Mushroom trampolines]] are added throughout the course.
In ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'', Peach Circuit is the third race in the [[Shell Cup]]. The course has not changed a lot from ''Mario Kart Super Circuit''. However, like other courses seen in Super Circuit to ''Mario Kart DS'', it shows an enhanced graphical look. [[Mario Kart DS#Missions|Mission]] 1-2 is carried out on this circuit. Peach must collect 15 coins in a section of the track in 30 seconds. It used to be available on Wi-Fi in VS mode. Also, Peach's Castle in the background is mirrored in the 50cc, 100cc, and 150cc engine classes; but faces in the same way like in the Game Boy Advance version in the 150cc Mirror engine class.

Peach Circuit is the introductory track of Mario Kart: Super Circuit, serving as the first race of the Mushroom Cup. Peach's Castle prominently appears in the background of this course. This track shares its music with Mario Circuit and Luigi Circuit.

Peach Circuit reappears in Mario Kart DS as the third race of the Shell Cup, and in Mario Kart Tour starting with the Princess Tour.

Mario Kart: Super CircuitEdit

Course layoutEdit

The course takes place on a simple paved road with grass and trees on both sides of the track. It begins with a sharp left turn followed by the first set of Item Boxes. Racers then take two slight left turns, with a slight right turn in between. There is then another sharp left turn, followed by a slight right turn and another item set. Racers then take a U-turn to the left followed by a brief straight and a 90° turn to the right. Another brief straight then brings racers to the finish line.

While the course features no specific notable shortcuts, racers can use Mushrooms or a Star to drive through the off-road along the course and cut off turns.

Mario Kart DSEdit

Peach Circuit makes its classic course debut in Mario Kart DS as the third course of the Shell Cup. The course mostly remains identical to its original appearance. However, like other GBA courses seen in the game, it shows an enhanced graphical look. Peach's Castle in the background is mirrored in the 50cc, 100cc, and 150cc engine classes; but faces in the same way like in the original appearance in the 150cc Mirror engine class. The course also used to be available on Wi-Fi in VS mode.

MissionsEdit

There is one mission that takes place on Peach Circuit:

  • Mission 1-2: The player controls Peach, who must collect 15 coins scattered along the track within 30 seconds.

Mario Kart TourEdit

 
The course in Mario Kart Tour

Peach Circuit returns in Mario Kart Tour starting from the Princess Tour. It has received a significant overhaul, with drastic changes to the aesthetics. Peach's Castle in the background uses the design from the Mario Kart Tour iteration of 3DS Mario Circuit. A starting line banner has been added, featuring the classic Mario Kart logo with Peach's crown above it and two castle towers flanking it. Toad Houses now appear in the background, as well as blocky mountains, mushrooms, and waterfalls. The bottom portion of the course now borders an ocean, with a lake also now present in its center. Elevation has been added to the course layout. The track overall has been shrunken down somewhat, most notably with the final turn, which is a fair bit shorter.

Unlike the other GBA courses in Mario Kart Tour, the course uses a restored version of its original music from Mario Kart: Super Circuit, albeit with enhanced percussion. Notably, it heavily resembles a version of the song used in a 2002 Japanese commercial for the Nagoya Expressway Public Corporation based on Mario Kart: Super Circuit.[1] This arrangement is also used for GBA Luigi Circuit in Mario Kart Tour.

The course also appears as Peach Circuit R (reversed), Peach Circuit T (with ramps), and Peach Circuit R/T (reversed with ramps). In the R variant, a glide ramp allows racers to cut off a turn halfway through the track. In the T and R/T variants, Mushroom trampolines are added throughout the course.
