'''''Mario Kart: Super Circuit''''' is the third game in [[Nintendo]]'s ''[[Mario Kart]]'' series. It was first released for the [[Game Boy Advance]] (GBA, AGB) in 2001, and was the sixth bestselling title for the system. ''Super Circuit'' utilizes [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mode_7 Mode 7] graphics for its levels, while using sprites for characters and powerups and weapons, such as shells. ''Super Circuit'' was the first handheld version of ''Mario Kart'' and the first to include [[Retro]] tracks from previous entries in the series as it included all of the original ''[[Super Mario Kart]]'' courses.

'''''Mario Kart: Super Circuit''''' is the third game in the ''[[Mario Kart]]'' series from [[Nintendo]]. It was first released for the [[Game Boy Advance]] (GBA, AGB) in 2001, and was the sixth bestselling title for the system. ''Mario Kart: Super Circuit'' utilizes [[wikipedia:Mode 7|Mode 7]] graphics for its levels, while using sprites for characters and items. It also was the first handheld version of ''Mario Kart'' and the first to include retro tracks from previous entries in the series as it included all of the original ''[[Super Mario Kart]]'' courses.
 
 
== Game Modes ==
 
=== Grand Prix ===
 
In this mode, one or two players race against the CPU. The player chooses a cup and plays the four courses it contains. The player earns points by placing within the first four positions. When finished in fifth place or lower, the player must restart the race. The player is able to restart a race three times, with three race flags representing the lives. When the flags run out, the player can no longer restart any race in the cup, and must start from the first race if they fail to reach 4th or higher. When playing with two players, only one player has to finish in the top four in order to move on to the next race. At the end of the cup, the player with the most points wins. There are three different speeds to choose from, each with varying difficulty.
 
 
 
=== Time Trial ===
 
One player can race against the best times on each course with no CPU opponents. After beating a best time, players can save Ghost data onto each time trial course. Whenever the player races on that course again, the player's Ghost mirrors movements of the saved data. Ghost data can also be downloaded from other players using the Game Boy Link Cable. Players are given Triple Mushrooms for use during Time Trials. Players also have the option to view their Ghost data using the Records option. Players can either turn their Ghost on or off during Time Trials using the select before selecting the mode.
 
 
 
=== Quick Run ===
 
Quick Run is a one player VS mode, unique to ''Mario Kart: Super Circuit'', that enables players to race on any tracks they unlocked with no restrictions or regulations. Players can choose what engine size they want to race on, with the difficulty level alongside with the speed. Players can alter the number of laps, appearance of coins, and item boxes by pressing Select before accessing this mode. Later ''Mario Kart'' installments since ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'' have a similar mode to Quick Run, which is named VS mode except that single players can also access the mode.
 
 
 
=== VS ===
 
VS mode is basically a Quick Run mode with two to four players. This mode cannot be accessed by only one player. CPU players are turned off in this mode. The game counts how many times the player won or lost against other players. Players can alter the number of laps, appearance of coins, having triple mushrooms as starting itemsnand item boxes by pressing Select before accessing this mode, but only if you play with multiple game cartridges. Players can play with multiple game cartridges or just a single cartridge via Game Boy Link Cable. When using a single cartridge, however, players are limited to their choices. Players will use a different colored Yoshi. Player 1 will be Green, player 2 Red, player 3 Light Blue, and player 4 Yellow. Aside from that, the only courses available are four SNES courses: [[SNES Mario Circuit 1]], [[SNES Donut Plains 1]], [[SNES Ghost Valley 1]], and [[SNES Bowser Castle 1]].
 
 
 
=== Battle ===
 
Just like VS mode, Battle mode cannot be played with only one player. The player participates with one to three other players in attempt to pop each other [[balloon]]s using items. Also seen in VS mode, the game counts how many times the players won or lost. When a player loses all of their balloons, the player turns into a Bob-omb. The Bob-omb can make it more difficult for the other players by either picking up item boxes or blasting into their karts.
