{{for|the stage that is new to ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U''|Mario Circuit (SSB4)}}

'''Mario Circuit''' ({{ja|マリオサーキット|Mario Sākitto}}, ''Mario Circuit'') is a playable stage in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', {{forwiiu}} and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''.  

In ''SSB4'', it has been renamed to '''Mario Circuit (Brawl)''' to distinguish it from [[Mario Circuit (SSB4)|the similarly named new stage]].  

In ''Ultimate'', it has been renamed again to '''Figure-8 Circuit''' ({{ja|エイトクロスサーキット|Eitokurosu Sākitto}}, ''8-Cross Circuit''), possibly due to its strong resemblance to [[mariowiki:Figure-8 Circuit|the track]] from ''Mario Kart DS''.

At regular intervals, [[Shy Guy]]s in go-karts will drive from the background on the lower road, similar in concept to the F-Zero-themed stages {{SSBM|Mute City}} and [[Port Town Aero Dive]]. Some time later, they will fly over the platforms on the upper road from the left, though players are alerted beforehand by a flashing warning arrow, akin to [[Onett]]. If players are hit by the karts, they will take 15% damage and sizable knockback, and can even be [[Star KO]]'d at higher percentages. The Shy Guys can also be attacked, which will send them spinning out to the side of the screen. Additionally, the screen in the background shows the location of the Shy Guys on the circuit, providing extra warning for their arrival.

===Ω form===

The Ω form of this stage consists of a new, raised platform in front of the standard version of the stage, which can be seen in the background. Shy Guys still race along the track but do not interfere with the fighters.

[[File:Figure8MKDS.png|thumb|left|150px|{{s|mariowiki|Figure-8 Circuit}} as it appears in ''{{s|mariowiki|Mario Kart DS}}''.]]

{{s|mariowiki|Mario Circuit}} is the name of a track that appears in every ''{{iw|mariowiki|Mario Kart|series}}'' game since ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario Kart}}''; however, there are only a small amount of resemblances in this stage to any of the Mario Circuits. One of these resemblances is in ''Super Mario Kart''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s {{s|mariowiki|Mario Circuit 2}}, which has a jump that overlaps another part of the track. The Shy Guys in this stage having to jump over the road onto to the other side could be a reference to Mario Circuit 2's jump. However, in ''{{s|mariowiki|Mario Kart DS}}'', Shy Guys only appear in DS Download Play. Another resemblance is that in ''{{s|mariowiki|Mario Kart 64}}'''s {{s|mariowiki|Mario Raceway}}, there are giant mushrooms for decoration. Tall mushrooms can be seen in the background of this stage, but the mushrooms are much thinner and taller compared to the ones in ''Mario Kart 64''.

The overall design of this stage resembles {{s|mariowiki|Figure-8 Circuit}} in ''{{s|mariowiki|Mario Kart DS}}'' (which it is named after in ''Ultimate''). Figure-8 Circuit features a seating area for spectators, pipes in the background, and giant block structures (which originally appeared in ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario Bros. 3}}''). Also a small sign that says "[[Nintendo]]" is seen in this track. All these features, including the "Nintendo" sign, are retained in this stage, but Figure-8 Circuit only had one seating area while this stage features two. Also in ''Mario Kart DS'', if friends wanted to play the game together, but somebody didn't have it, they could still connect together through ''DS Download Play''; however, the people who didn't have the game have no choice but to play as a Shy Guy. This stage features the drivers as Shy Guys and this could be also be a reference to ''Mario Kart DS''.  The trees that have faces in this stage are possibly a reference to the trees in ''{{s|mariowiki|Mario Kart: Double Dash!!}}''.  

The design of the giant screen in the background is based on the map that was displayed on the DS Touch Screen during races in ''Mario Kart DS''. Pressing the "Y" button or tapping the screen with the stylus gave the player this view, along with the location and position of every racer. All these features are retained here.

*Added [[8-Player Smash]] version of the stage and its Ω form.

**If {{SSBB|Jigglypuff}}'s [[Puff Up]] is used, karts will go through Jigglypuff while it's expanding (though shrinking could still wipe them out.)

*In ''SSB4'', this is the only stage to have something other than "64" in parentheses in its name.
